• Problems with the shortcut keys, suggestions?

  I have an Asus computer is a portable computer, N56VM. I have problems with my shortcut keys. I can use is no longer the fn + key that usually let me adjust the back of my bright keyboard commands, or my volume (mute, raise/lower the volume), however, my brightness on the monitor shortcuts keyboard still works, and so did my black screen key. Oh, and also, my toggle mouse shortcut is not no longer works. I was looking at the forums, and I upgraded my bios and also reinstalled my ATKPI files and still nothing. I think the problem might have to do with the mechanics of the system, but I am not sure. Any suggestions?

• Problem with the product key of windows 8

  I have problem with my product key of victory 8. I installed it in front of my laptop and it is normal until something goes wrong with my laptop. I decided to reinstall my win 8, and when I put the product key, it does not work. What should I do?

  (1) If you encounter problems with activation, try to reboot / restart your PC a couple of times.
  (2) if it is a new installation of Windows 8 / 8.1 try options refresh or Reset.
  If the two options above do not solve the problem of activation, then try activating the phone.

  How to activate Windows 8 by phone

  Press the Windows key + x then click Run, then type: slui.exe 4
  (Another method: press Windows + r and then type: slui.exe 4)

  Then press the ENTER"" key.

  Select your "country" in the list.

  Choose the option "activate phone".

  Stay on the phone * do not select/press any option * and wait for a person to help you.

  Clearly state your problem to the support person.

• can perform us two actions with a single button in two clicks, one after the other?

  Mr President.
  
  can perform us two actions with a single button in two clicks, one after the other?
  
  I want that when I click on the button Add once it add data to the database and when I click again on this button it clears the form data to the empty fields.
  
  Concerning
  
  Tanvir

  In the code, it should be easy.

  The following code adds that a button called butman with text 'ADD '.
  It then registers a listener that will be called if the user clicks the button.

  This listener then calls the runAddData method if you clicked butman while it contained the text of "ADD" and it calls the runClearData method otherwise.
  That's why he will swap the functionality of the button between ADD and CLEAR on each click.

  final Button butman = new Button("ADD");
  butman.setOnAction(new EventHandler() {
            @Override
            public void handle(ActionEvent t) {
                      if (butman.getText().equals("ADD")) {
                                butman.setText("CLEAR");
                                runAddData();
                      } else {
                                butman.setText("ADD");
                                runClearData();
                      } // END IF-THEN
            }});
  

  I hope that's what you wanted.

  Further reflection.
  You might want to run the ADD and CLEAR methods in their own son so that it can run in the background without slowing down your user interface.

  I also reuse rather a single button for several features instead of to apply with hundreds of nodes used only rarely with masses of code to show and hide as needed.
