  When playing a video and the audio is slightly out of sync, I read there was a keyboard shortcut which allowed you to try and sync.

  I thought it was the key to ctrl-plus/minus. But this does not seem to do anything.

  There is no key shortcut as such on the audio and video sync in Windows Media Player.

• How to use sticky keys?

  I have rsi and coordination/proprioception problems, so I can't type without looking at where I tape and cannot coordinate both hands, can not use some grips and cannot use contact devices unless I can turn off the tapping and disable most of the movements. I also have migraines and sensory processing problems, and I can't handle all the flashing and some animations.

  I can type fairly quickly, as long as I can see as I type and all the key combos are not suitable for the same hand.

  I turned on the StickyKeys in the accessibility preferences, as many combinations of keys are designed to both hands and * all * the combinations of keys + mouse are.

  I had problems, however.

  Sometimes the keys get stuck on and I find myself with extra earplugs while typing or missing caps, or worse still, I find myself with something of my migraines trigger and zoom. for example command + scroll touchpad does.

  Also the keyboard and the keyboard Viewer do not work together. I can't use shift a keyboard, and then click the appropriate on the other letter.

  Are there ways to solve these problems? Yes, the keys appear on the screen.

  Hi, have a problem with keys sticky, but in my case in combination with voiceover active: whenever I press a modifier (ctrl, shift, etc.), voiceover announces the sticky keys are enabled. It's so boring that I can't be happy with my macbook air and imac. I'd also like capslock key, acting as a sticky when voiceover modifier key key is assigned to capslock in combination with sticky keys are enabled. Many emails to [email protected]wrote, but I received nothing promises / automated responses back. Please help us somehow! Thanks in advance, Helmuth

• Pavilion 15 ab062nl: HP Pavilion ab062nl 15, SHIFT, CTRL, ALT keys on linux problems

  I have a problem with the keyboard of the laptop HP Pavilion 15 ab062nl.
  the problem is with the keys ALT SHIFT and CTRL on the keyboard.

  for example when I use the shortcut ALT - TAB, after a few seconds, the ALT - TAB menu disappear as if I release the ALT key, but is not so.
  Another example is when I surf the web, when I scroll with the mouse wheel, sometimes the beginning of the page to resize, as if I am pressing CTRL command while marching, or if I write a text, sometimes the borwser launch shortcut, as if I am pressing CTRL while I type text , for exaple so I type letter 'b', open bookmarks...

  Another example is while I'm typing the text, if I press the SHIFT key and that you start to type, started writing letters and after awhile, written in lowercase as I released shift, but I'm always pressing shift.

  for example, if I press SHIFT + s, the result is this:
  SSSSSSSSSSSSSSsssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
  some letters are capitalized, but others are tiny.

  I have not found a solution.
  the only way to fix it temporarily, makes pressure for a few seconds the shift only, after that, the problem goes away indefinitely, or until the next reboot.

  This problem occurs with all versions of ubuntu (x 86 and x86_64), now I use Ubuntu 15.10, but I also tried 15.04, ubuntu 10.04 ubuntu ubuntu ubuntu 12.04, 14.04.

  In addition, I have this problem too with the other Distributions of GNU/Linux (I tried Fedora, OpenSuse, ArchLinux, Antergos, Debian, SteamOS).
  but is not and the hardware problem, because on Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 I don't have these problems.

  I also tried to connect an externa USB keyboard, and if I use external USB keyboard I have no problems.

  In my view, is a compatibility issue with this laptop's built-in keyboard.

  I tried to follow these problems using XEV, and results which is also if I use a cell phone, sometimes XEV reads an ENTRY from one of these 3 keys (SHIFT, CTRL, ALT) and while I'm pressing one of these major 3, XEV see also if I release and immedialty after press.

  This is an example of the input while I touch Left_ALT for awhile

• Keyboard locked after activation of the sticky keys

  Hi, I accidentally cut on my sticky keys. I hit the SHIFT key five times, according to the microsoft.com; However, it will not unlock. When I try to type, I hear a noise, but I don't see anything happening. Any suggestions?  Thank you!

  Hi lgriffith1297,

  Thank you for visiting Windows Vista Microsoft answers forum.

  Sticky keys are enabled on the computer and that is why you are getting the beep when you try to type something using the keyboard. You must disable sticky keys.

  To activate deactivate StickyKeys, follow these steps:

  1. click on start and then click Control Panel. 2. click on 'Ease of access' and then click 'accessibility '. 3. under "Explore all settings" click on "Make the keyboard easier to use". 4. under "make it easier to type", uncheck "Turn on Sticky Keys" and click Save.

• My left shift key beeps twice when you press on--NOT STICKY KEYS

  My left shift key does not work. The law works fine. When you press it, it sounds twice. Has Ive restore my computer to an earlier point and that did not fix the problem, any more than to disable and turn off StickyKeys. The key itself is sensitive, it leads me to believe that it cannot be the entire keyboard. Any ideas would be useful.

  BTW, I am running Windows 7 on a laptop Asus U43F

  1. See manual ASUS [service] to see if there is any special significance to it. http://www.computerhope.com/jargon/p/post.htm I thought, but it seems not applicable since it is not starting, it is when running.
  2. check the sticky keys for accessibility-related technologies starting with F1 for help. There are a number of them. start going through one by one to see if something is on. You may have accidentally market something (there are combinations of keys that do this). Control Panel, display small icons, accessibility.
  3. buy a $5 or $22 USB keyboard. IBM makes a mechanical keyboard nice $79, classic, I believe to be a joy to type on (they make them for IBM). http://www.pckeyboard.com/page/category/UKBD
  4. Plug it in
  5. Try the left SHIFT key
  6. If she still double beeps {is your installation of windows or something in the laptop, not your keyboard. you can try reinstalling windows using a repair, which is less expensive, you need to reinstall your programs and drivers, but you keep your data. you can keep this configuration, my mother a.} otherwise, {hardware of the laptop may be in need of repair could cost between $200 (replace keyboard)-800 $ (motherboard).}

  There are more expensive mechanical keyboards, but they are for games.

• I can't disable sticky keys

  I have a Compaq with windows 7 and stay lit and even if the keys i unchecked and re-check all options over and over again I may not go down and her do all really hard. If someone could help me as soon as it would be great. Thank you

  I had the same problem earlier.  Disabled and enabled the sticky key option again and again, rebooted the PC and nothing fixed it.

  In the end, I had to hold the SHIFT key for about 30 seconds without interruption, until you hear a strange noise of slope high.  This fixed it for me.

  Looks like a bug to me.

• Unable to turn on sticky keys permanently

  Most here want to remove the sticky keys... I am physically disabled and need to keep ON. I have only one hand (no fingers) so I need to figure out how get SK working full time. My PC will receive Symantec Endpoint Protection but SK call after endpoint connection is requested.

  I tried in my Regedit

  [HKEY_USERS\. Default\Control Panel\Accessibility\StickyKeys] "Flags" ="?"

  .. but I'm not sure of what value to put?

  Original title: invoking sticky keys

  Hello

  With the publication of the description, I understand that you want to enable the sticky keys on your computer. I've certainly you will help solve the problem.

  Sticky keys can be activated at any time during a Windows session (including the connection) by pressing SHIFT 5 times. You can also use the control panel to turn on sticky keys permanently, but it won't allow you to do this for the logon screen. However, it is always possible to do this by manually editing the Windows registry. But it's pretty hard in there and if you delete or change a value by any chance there is no cancellation function, and it can have devastating effects on your operating system. So to make things a little easier, you can use the steps mentioned below and check if that helps.

• Can I extend the "sticky key" function key "fn"?

  I need to use the 'home' and 'end '. On my ASUS keyboard, these keys must be pushed simulaneouly with the "fn". I have only one arm that is imposible. Can I extend the "sticky key" function key "fn".

  My computer is an ASUS UX31E.

  Hello WarwickZD and warwick1,

  The short answer is no.

  We cannot extend this functionality to the Fn keys.

  In order to get this kind of functionality, you would probably need to investigate the 3rd party software.
