Portege R500 shortcut keys work not

Quick access keys (or function keys) no longer work on my Portege R500 even if the F10 and F11 keys work. I don't know exactly when they stopped working, or if it's related to a particular event.

I use Windows XP. SP 3

I tried to downlowd various updates of drivers from this site, but without success.

I downloaded the latest driver for hotkeys however, after having extracted the files, when I select tfnf5.exe and try to run it, nothing happens. I am unable to delete the file, because it tells me that it is in use.

When I try to start Toshiba Accessibility, I get a message "the system cannot use Toshiba Accessibililty". (I don't know why there is a comma after the system).

Any ideas please?

Thank you very much

Hello

In order to get the FN keys to work, you must first install the common Module!
Then follow with Hotkey utilities for display devices, hotkey utilities and wireless

This should help you get the buttons working again!

  • Portege R500 - Ctrl Key does not

    Hi guys

    I have two toshiba portege r500, who never really be used since buying about 2 years ago.

    Today I don't have one to begin to use it and find that the CTRL key is not working that I thought it was strange.
    After browsing a bit I couldn't find a solution then I'm just another identical laptop on and from using them to find exactly a problem only.

    Laptops are both under XP.
    I reformatted and uninstalled the keyboard driver to see if that would solve the problem but it did not.

    All others. Many have suggested that this may be due to a damaged cable keyboard but I think that it would be very likely that they would both violate the same way.

    Thanks in advance

    Connect an external USB keyboard and check if the button would work.
    If the button can be used with the external keyboard, then the internal keyboard is faulty and must be replaced.

  • Shortcut keys work not

    Greetings

    Computer of my wife's an A200-JA1, running Windows 7 Home Premium, 32-bit, but the same problem existed in Windows Vista, this isn't a problem to upgrade. If you drag the mouse to the top of the screen, you get the menu to access the shortcut keys, but pressing on Fn + F__ does not work with the function keys. This is more important if she forgets her mouse at home - it leaves the default disabled trackpad, but without having a mouse to access the menu of trackpad at the top of the screen, it cannot activate the trackpad by pressing Fn + F9. It does not work. I tried several other - Fn + F6 or F7 to decrease/increase brightness, Fn + F5 to change the external display, etc., but none of them work.

    There is a small green light between the F10 key and keys 9/0 below and when you press the Fn key on the keyboard, this little button (which looks like four arrows pointing outward) turns on, but that's all.

    Any suggestion is appreciated.

    Mike.

    P.S. somehow and we are not sure of the key combination, but she sometimes keyboard begins to display by using the characters 'red '. For example, when pressing SHIFT + / instead of get a? She'll have an E instead. The only way to reset seems to be rebooting the computer.

  • Help, please! Shortcut keys work not

    I tried with several wacom tablets, it's not the tablet. When I edit in photoshop, I have to click on a tool with my cursor in order to get to the next tool; the letters will not work. Even with all that I use. It's as if it hangs until I click somewhere. So I can not just use the Brush tool, and then press 'e' to the gum. I have to click on the actual tool. In addition, the things I did do not appear in history until I click. It wastes a lot of time, is there a way so that this gets fixed?

    Apply the white window plugin in this link. This is a very common problem with the Tablet and Photoshop.

    If you have CC 2015, remember to upgrade to 2015.1

  • Shortcut keys work not properly shaped tools

    Version: Illustrator CS5.1

    System: Mac OS X 10.8.5

    Whenever I use a tool to form including the up and down arrows, change its attributes, the top and the arrow keys jump several States. Thus, for example, a star can go from 5 points to 12 points if I press up arrow once, ignoring completely the sharp stars 6-11. It happens with polygons, spirals, and as well rounded tool.

    I tried to use a different keyboard, but the problem persisted. I also used my keyboard with a different computer and Illustrator very well behaved. So, it is definitely a problem with the software.

    I can't find the answer to this problem in the forums or search on Google. Help!

    Yes I know. Install a different driver does not help.

    One thing that helps to not use the Tablet when you draw with the shape tools.

  • Portege 3500: FN key does not work

    the FN key is not working and when you start get the recovery of the thotkey failed

    What function of the FN key doesn't work?
    If the switch show FN + F5 n t work buttons you need to install utility for display devices access keys. If the wireless shortcut key does not work, you need to install Wireless hotkey.
    As you can see, different applications and drivers are required to use different Fn keys.

    But common modules must be installed always, because this driver is important for every application from Toshiba. Also, be sure to reinstall the utilities.
    Visit the Toshiba for the necessary drivers.

    Hello

    Hmm. Win 7 drivers are not yet out, but I found some beta readers on the Toshiba page we:
    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp

    Maybe you will find some Win 7 drivers for series L500/505

    Otherwise I would recommend you to check if you can activate the WLan in Device Manager-> properties-> Advanced tab Wlan card

    There are a few additional options, that maybe the WiFi we / off would be there also.

  • Satellite A135-s2326 - shortcut keys do not work after installing XP

    Hello

    I have Toshiba Satellite A135-s2326

    I kill Vista and installed Xp on it, but the shortcut keys do not work now.

    Someone knows how to fix this?

    Do you mean the FN button functionality?

    Well buddy, the question is clear like a Crystal, the buttons FN don t work after the Win XP because the necessary drivers have not been installed.

    But first he must know that it is a series of models Toshiba us.
    I checked the Toshiba page us and unfortunately, I didn't find any Win XP tools or drivers for this model of laptop.

    It seems that you will have to use the laptop without the functionality of the FN button if you want to use Win XP. :(

  • Shortcut keys does not work in CS6

    Since the upgrade to CS6, all shortcuts keys do not work.

    For example, pressing "M" to go to the marquee tool has no effect, but "Command-T" (for processing) works very well.

    This little bug prevents me to change one of the main tools, which hurts the flow of work badly enough.

    Ah! It seems that there is a preference for her under general > use Shift key for tool switch.

    All is right with the world now.
