Satellite P875 - need to press the FN button to use the function keys?

Hello

I have a W7 Satellite P875 running and something weird just started to happen.

My F1 - F12 keys and reverse obtained special functions.
I used to need only press the buttons for special functions and now I need to press "Fn" otherwise I get the regular F1 - F12 options.

I checked the system at startup and then setting it always says the special functions are those by default, but this isn't the case. I tried switching between the keys F1 to F12 and special functions as value by default, but little matter I do only the keys F1 to F12 are the default ones.

Any solution or any driver I have to re - install to make it back to normal?

I must say at the same time, I started having problems with my iTunes library with conflicts, I think with my AVG Antivirus. Suffice to say where there is a known conflict between AVG and the system that could influence that. I was also messing around aound with msconfig to try to sort that conflict but I returned to the way it was then it should not be the cause.

Hello

This is controlled in the BIOS as well as it can be changed in the settings of ToshibaHW.

Also, go into the BIOS press F2 at the beginning.
Now choose Advaced and here you will see the point of the System Configuration.
Go ahead and finally you will see the option called:

* Function Mode button (without pressing the FN key) *.

    Hello

    My older Toshiba has a power switch WiFi.

    My new Toshiba has a WiFi switch above the F keys, although I do not know which varies
    by model. So check with Toshiba support, their documentation online and drivers, and
    ask in their forums where there will be others with the same model.

  • Re: Satellite A500 - need help with the FN key and Toshiba programs

    Hello

    The fn key Eco and other buttons specialized such as the one that opens Windows Media Player have stopped responding on my PSAM3A-03P00E A500 running Windows Vista. I can always change the brightness of the screen with the FN key, but no menu appears at the top of the screen.

    Also Toshiba programs that are intended to be run at the start as PC Health Monitor are not auto start, even if they are enabled in the Configuration (msconfig) system.
    The Bluetooth Manager however initially runs upward.

    I have blue screen errors, but they are not a problem since I have updated the BIOS to 1.5 and uninstalled Zonealarms.

    See you soon

    Hello

    Try reinstalling the additional package of Toshiba. AFAIK, this utility is responsible for these functions.

    strange!

    all of a sudden, I do not receive my additional tools in the toolbar (left) when I hit the black own in the lower corner on the right.

    It seems to be the same problem in my ALL programs in CS4.

    I thought he had a conflict with my system OS X 10.6.2.

    but after searching for days, I see additional options in the fly out menu become visible when I hold down the CTRL key and click the black own.

    no idea what happened here?

    Thank you

    Hi Bedouins,

    Just press each button step by step, so you can see what is happening: learning by doing! ;)

    The soft keys from left to right

    1 button Eco specifications will change in eco mode power management. In this mode, your mobile phone will save energy and brightness for example
    2 button WLAN WLAN connectivity will be turned off or on
    3. programmable button as its name suggests, you it s softkey. Therefore, you must Support Button Toshiba which is preinstalled on your computer
    4. Play/Pause I think this says a lot
    5. the power button light can turn lighting on or off
    6 volume up/down

    I hope I could help clarify this point. :)

  • Pressing the Tab key activates the player controls

    I am simulating an application that requires the use of the Tab key. In Captivate, the Tab key is a shortcut for click box that passes just to the next slide. During playback when the tab key, in addition to advancing to the next slide, a player control button is activated as indicated that she has highlighted. In the simulation, the user may need to press the Tab key, a number of times, which in turn moves to the next slide and highlights the next player button. Once the user pressed Tab the required number of times, one of the controls is highlighted. In the simulation, users usually need to press ENTER after a sequence of tabs, which in addition to performing the desired action simulation, also performs the control of the player highlighted button. This could be something quick return to output and everything. That's the problem in a dirty word.

    I tried 'tab_no_yellow.swf' and 'tab_no_yellow_global.swf' assistants, nothing helps. The result of the use of these files has been changed. They understand without change to action by all, at all, and the user must press Tab twice to each single press in the real application.

    I tried to disable the player in total controls which completely weird tab has led key behavior. In this configuration, pressing the Tab key seems to go through a list of player controls 'hidden' before the scheduled execution, click action box. It's fairly consistent... that there are six tabs executing 'goto next slide' the first time and five later. If you press Enter until through all the controls on the shadow drive, it performs some Player control, it happens to be on.

    This is the environment in which this happens:
    Captivate 3
    Skin: BMP bars
    Playback bar: Captivate
    See the establishment of borders: disabled
    Publication: SWF only - not HTML - Flash Player 7 (also tried 8 & 9)

    The SWF file plays as an animation on a page of Lectora (Trivantis) generated HTML in a browser window IE 6 fixed - without toolbars, without address bar, without scroll bars, etc..

    Any help to solve this dilemma is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for your reply. I had discovered this information earlier, but still cannot get the application to work. In the end, it was of part of the solution. Here's what he had to do to things work:

    In Captivate
    -Disable the playback bar
    -Disable the 508 compliance
    In Lectora
    -Add "SeamlessTabbing" as a parameter to the .swf object and set it to "false".

  • Satellite Pro C870-172: how to use the Fn keys by pressing the FN key

    I recently bought a Satellite Pro C870-172 and I found that the FN key is used by default.

    I mean that if I need to use the normal F1 or F2 key, I have to press "FN" + F1 or F2 etc... otherwise I get the function of toshiba. which would be fine, but in a lot of technical programs, I need to use the normal F1 F2... touch!

    is there a way to reverse the default system so that when I press the F1 key, I get the F1 function and when I press FN + F1, I get the toshiba service?

    Thank you

    M2

    Yes, go to the BIOS by pressing F2
    Now switch to the Advanced tab, and then open the System Configuration.
    Here you will see the option called: mode of the function (without pressing Fn first) key
    This option should be disabled.

  • Satellite Pro M40: computer stops when you press the SHIFT key

    Sometimes when I press the shift key it wonder if I want to shut down the computer. It also changes the internet Explorer mode in full screen. When it arrives it will be continually for centuries and then suddenly stop. Then start again. It seems not to happen at any given time. I disabled the hot key in the Toshiba utility and which comes to the top of the Tower stops when I pressed the SHIFT key, it does not give me the option.
    It's really annoys me because I can't just think what to do.

    Thank you

    Hello

    It's very strange. It is the first time I heard about this issue.
    As much as I know the Toshiba utility cannot add additional functions to shift and make this key as a stop button.
    I have gift? don't know if you have installed the 3rd party applications that can change the keyboard feature, but you should check this possibility.

    In addition can also be a defective hardware. Maybe something wrong with the keyboard controller. But of course the diagnostic test is necessary.
