Satellite L850 - special function key not working not properly

• Special function keys not working not not on Satellite C50 - Windows 8.1

  Hello

  Please could someone help me.

  I have a Toshiba Satellite C50-A0393, I received a few months ago with already installed Windows 8.1 (64-bit). Today, I got a message saying that I had to watch the PC health, a blue message Toshiba about that the access agreement and I noticed that there are three updates that needed to be done, the only one, I remember being the Toshiba Video Player. I think that another had to do with the light of the charger?
  I do not know.

  But once I rebooted my laptop after the update I noticed that the special function keys were not working (i.e. the volume, mute, pause and play, etc..). Then, I went to the Toshiba Office help and in Control Panel and select the keyboard tab. I did as the setting for the special function mode has been selected.

  Now, when this setting is in place, some keys work but for F3, F5, F6, etc. and when I want to use special features that the volume up and down work when pressing 'Fn', but the special function mode is still selected? These two work only, not the mute or the flightmode or bluetooth, which was operating normally before the updates.

  I googled but can't find something specific to 8.1, or not covered do not upgrade to 8.1. I can't find the flashcard utility and do not want to try something where I don't know what I'm doing. How can I get these special function keys working again normally? Sorry for the long message, but I wanted to give as much information as possible.

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  It seems strange to me that an update of Toshiba (Toshiba Video Player, etc.) would have an impact on the key features of function.
  However, the function key (F1 - F10) can be used in combination with or without the FN key. It depends on the special function key mode.

  In case you want to use the F1 - F12 functions without the FN key, the key mode of function must be enabled (should be set to the special mode of operation)

  Full details here how it works:
  https://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD2503B90001R01.htm

  Now it these buttons would not work even if pressing the FN key, then there is a problem with the software.

  First of all I would recommend allows you to set the default BIOS because this mode key function can be changed in the BIOS too.
  After this, check if the key would work. If not, reinstall
  Key feature of Toshiba utility

  And the driver for the Toshiba system

  You can also check if the essential service has not been disabled.
  Start the Task Manager and go to start a number of questions. You must activate all Toshiba apps, services and then restart.

• Qosmio X 870-F special function keys not working not

  Hello

  I just got my laptop (windows 8.1) repaired with replacement being installed equipment. Something I noticed only worse is how the brightness F keys do not respond. The F2 and F3 keys work themselves, but not the special function. It's really weird that others work very well, as the volume.

  I tried to uninstall/install two DLC driver (was utilitarian value Toshiba or something but I can't remember names are the other was literally the wording of the keys/keyboard fn or f in there). It did not work.

  Can anyone help solve this for me? I don't know what windows 10 comes along it all reset and hopefully work again, but this is a very niggling nuisance at the moment.

  Thank you.

  Unisntall the Toshiba Value Added Package because this package isn't compatible with Win system 8.1

  You need to install the:

  as well as the
  Toshiba to Win 8.1 function key utility

  I recommend you to test the different graphics card drivers where the brightness of the display would not work properly.

• Satellite A200 touchpad function does not properly

  Hello

  I spent a lot of time looking for the solution to my problem, but without effects.

  My touchpad does not work correctly. I mean, I can move the arrow and click on the screen, it's ok. But all other functions (volume, mailbox and other "virtual buttons" don't work)-the so-called "hybrid".
  I am connected to the USB port on the mouse.

  If I disconnect it, there is no change - the touchpad works only in basic mode.
  If I change the double mode in the settings of the touchpad to "always in Dual Mode when an external device is connected" - and all the virtual buttons work.
  But what do I do to make the mode of double the work even if the mouse is not connected (so that the power button works)?

  Thanks for any help,
  M.

  I m a bit confused now and I don t know what exactly you want
  You're talking about the touchpad, mouse USB, bi, etc..

  I put t know what you mean with dual mode and maybe you should give us more information about your operating system.
  And that you use the touch pad or mouse USB?

  Can you post a screenshot screen or something else?

  I put t know if this solves your problem, but have you tried to update the driver for the touchpad? You can find it on the Toshiba site.

• Satellite C55-A5310 - special function key does not

  I'm presenting the same report that I sent in support but repost it here in case where I do not get a useful solution.

  Yesterday, I reset my Toshiba Satellite C55 A5310 (Part #PSCF6U-0EF066 Serial #9D362065Q). It was the factory reset, then had 10 Windows reinstalled automatically. After the reboot, my special function keys were set back from the normal function of F1 - 12 and didn't find any way to change. Toshiba parameters have been removed after the reboot (not my fault), so I searched in my BIOS settings, but don't found no available keyboard option, then reinstalled the possible necessary drivers to change their back (Toshiba Service Station and HW Setup). HW installation provided the ability to use any special functions or default settings Fn, but after choosing special keys, apply and ok - nothing has changed. I ran the program as an administrator and still no change.

  Being only 16 years with only a basic understanding of the functions of the computer I please ask no simple solution not requiring any sort of 'hacking' or adjust the permissions (that made me in the first place) or editing the registry. I'm too scared to do it again and ruin all my laptop operating!

  There should be a special function key setting in the BIOS.

  Installation of HW is for Win7. Replaces the Toshiba system parameters, you need Toshiba system driver installed for it to work. It looks like you may have installed Win7/8 drivers/utils in Win10.

• Satellite U840W/001 W8 Fn + Z does not not in special function key Mode

  Hello

  I realized that the Fn + Z does not work when my special function keys mode is on IE: when I can control the volume by pressing F9 without pressing the Fn key.

  However, the special function keys Mode is turned off (& I have to press Fn with the F # for keys control the volume), then only the Fn + Z active the backlight for the keyboard on & off the power.

  When I open my program function key, the only available option is to either change notification power settings. There is no timer control or something useful in this regard.

  My BIOS is not any keyboard backlight setting, only the option use the Fn + F # normal or to use special function key mode.

  Please help me.
  Thank you

  I U940 and I ve checked its operation. Everything looks OK and I can use FN + Z when I choose special function mode.
  In the BIOS under power management, I've seen control option keyboard backlight mode. The same option is available in the BIOS on your machine?

  I cannot now use special function keys but I want them back.
  What makes Toshiba program and what other programs Toshiba should I re - install.

• Re: Satellite L850/046 - keyboard has stopped working

  The laptop Toshiba Satellite L850/046 - keyboard has stopped working.
  Have restarted. In the box of charms, it seems ghost.

  Impossible to restore or reset as it asks password and keyboard does not work

  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?
  You have created a recovery media? If Yes, please try to use it and install original recovery image.
