Satellite L500-13W - FN key stop working

Hello everyone

I have a problem, all of a sudden, without doing anything, my * FN keys stop working *. The adjustment of the brightness first always worked without appearing in the bar at the top of the screen, but when I restart the computer even no work, nothing in relation to the FN key works.

My biggest problem is that my computer is a Toshiba Satellite L500-13W and * I can only activate wireless by pressing FN + F8 *. I can't stay with this issue much more. I already looked in this forum and other sites, but none of the solutions have solved my problem.
I hope you can help me.

Thanks in advance.

(Sorry for my bad English) :|

Oh I forgot to say, I use Windows Vista 32 bit

Hello

> I already looked in this forum and other sites, but none of the solutions have solved my problem.
Does that mean exactly? What have you already tried exactly?
You should post this very important information what you exactly did.

Furthermore, I can't find any more information about your operating system. You are using Vista 32-bit, but is this preinstalled Toshiba or have you installed yourself?

Good bye

  • Satellite L300D-135 - some keys stop working after a few minutes

    Satellite L300D-135 (PSLC8E-02P013EN) portable model, boot cold keyboard is fine. As things warm up the keys R and there stop responding as do 7890 keys. May be heat related.

    The keyboard has been replaced, old and new are doing the same thing, so it's more like a controller issue. Have flashed the latest BIOS as saw talk of the keyboard problems in one of the versions of the BIOS. The end user has been tolerated for a few months, but now, Dyslexic child needs to use the laptop and cannot deal with dead keys.

    Any ideas? Laptop is 2 weeks out of warranty and user end just asked me to take a peek, problem has been around for the warranty period.

    Phil

    Hi Phil

    Can you notice the question even if you connect an external keyboard or this only happens with an intern?

    I can t imagine it has something to do with the heat, but if you want you can clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans.

    If this isn't the case, you must replace the entire keyboard. Normally it of not so expensive so Don t you worry not about it. You can also ask your ASP if they can repair as a gesture of goodwill.

  • Satellite A105-S4254: several keyboard keys stop working after startup

    Hey

    I have a laptop A105-S4254, which is less than a year.
    When I boot it upward a few minutes most of the keys stopped working.
    The F keys will however continue to work.
    I can laugh with the brightness and activate / disable the num lock and scroll but I can't type.

    A number of key just freeze.
    When I reboot the keys work for a few minutes and then stop working again.

    Please help me with suggestions and solutions.
    Thanx

    Hello

    For me, it looks like a hardware problem. Maybe it s the keyboard or keyboard controller itself.
    But first, you must be sure that this failure was not due to a software problem.
    Therefore, it would be desirable to update the system and install the OS from the Toshiba Recovery CD.

    If the keyboard problem appears again, I'd recommend contacting the ASP in your country to control the laptop.

    It seems that the guarantee could be valid for all replacements must be done for free.

  • Touchpad of my Satellite C50-A-19 t stopped working

    I didn't know what category it would go in... I'm sorry.

    I have a Toshiba satellite laptop and the mouse stopped working.

    _It has nothing to do with the function key (f5) the mouse turns off. _
    It stopped working yesterday.
    I can use the keyboard.

    My father noticed that by organizing in either the left or the right button, it moves, but it will not on its own. However when you try to move it vertically, it starts to scroll which he couldn't do before.

    Any idea on how to make it work?

    > I have a Toshiba satellite laptop
    Which one?

    > It has nothing to do with the function (f5) key that disables the mouse.
    If you have already tested if the touchpad isn't disabled?

    How about the external USB mouse? It work correctly?
    Have you tested the touchpad without connected USB mouse?

    > My father who noticed taking in either left or right button, it moves, but it will not on its own. However when you try to move it vertically, it starts to scroll which he couldn't do before.

    This looks like a function additional touchpad (as the gesture control, etc.)

  • Some keys stop working after the update of the Sierra (only for a specific profile)

    After update to Sierra my keyboard worked well for a while.  But at random, U I O P J K L keys stopped working.

    The bug only shows 1 profile. If I create another profile new profile keyboard works very well.

    Anyone know what that sometimes caused that and with the fix is?

    Hello ExcelsiorPath,

    After reviewing your post, it seems that several keys do not work on a single profile. This looks like an option that may have been changed.  I recommend you to read this article, it may be able to help solve the problem.

    If the other keys do not work

    You may have accidentally set an option that changes your keyboard works.

    • Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility, and then click keyboard. Make sure that slow keys is turned off. If slow keys is enabled, you will need to keep a key longer than usually before it is recognized.

    • Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility, and then click mouse and Trackpad. Make sure that the mouse keys is turned off. If the mouse keys is enabled, pressing the keys in the numeric keypad moves the pointer instead of entering the numbers.

    • Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click keyboard, and then click input methods. Select "Show the menu in the menu bar." Open the menu entry, then make sure that the correct keyboard layout is selected.

      To display the keyboard layout, click keyboard, and then choose "See the viewers for emoji keyboard symbols in the menu bar."

    Hello Graham

    Sorry, but your problem is not easy to understand. After reading these two sentences, it is not easy to tell if there is a general problem with the keyboard or what.
    When you enter the BIOS settings can use keyboard to scroll through the options and tabs of the BIOS?

    Since when did you notice this problem?
