Switch 10: Keyboard dropping characters
If I type for about 30 seconds, when I start again the first character is always deleted. Looks like the keyboard is in standby mode. On the screen keyboard is fine as is the full-size USB, one I use at home.
I downloaded and installed all the latest drivers from the switch.
I searched here and in August there were a few complaints, it seems that it has not yet been fixed or there?
Thank you
I saw the same symptom with my W700 and it is the keyboard and managed to mitigate by removing the power settings on the USB device. The bluetooth keyboard ends up looking like USB to the operating system.

Satellite A110-231; USB keyboard "drops" characters
The characters are removed at the BIOS level and when the OS (XP Prof. SP 2) has been loaded. Running BIOS version 1.6.2.9.
Any ideas?

Hello dickie1967,
Make sure that Windows did recognize your external device properly:
Open the Device Manager and look for, if you have a double aspect of the USB keyboard. If you do, please remove the item that has a circular yellow sign with an exclamation point.
Kind regards

Potential problem of keyboard - special characters
Hello!
I recently encountered a problem, and it is reproducible. When you type in Chrome on my Macbook Pro 13 inch Yosemite running, if I try to type a special character (for example, an 'e' with an accent), the keyboard becomes unresponsive. If I refresh the page, it still fails. The only way to make sensitive again is to close the browser and reopen it, but that does not make special characters work. Any ideas? I'm under 47.0.2526.111 (64 - bit) Chrome Version, if this is useful. Thank you!

Aspire Switch 10 keyboard problem
Hello. I have problems with my brand new Acer Aspire Switch 10.
I just unboxed it - it sounds great - but unfortunately there is a problem with the keyboard. When I press on to ' or 'g', I get ' gs, similarly ' t ' and '4', 'y' and 'w', ' 6 "and 3" and more annoyingly "v" and "right arrow".» I'm typing this message on an external keyboard!, which works very well.
Is there something I can do to try to resolve the problem, or I am looking at a return
Replacement keyboard works very well.

To change it, go to control panel | Region and language and click the keyboard and languages tab. Then click on change keyboards... and choose the one that suits you.

MS Natural wireless keyboards - weird characters/actions on the keys
I have three sets of mouse and the MS Optical Desktop Pro keyboard, and two of them are doing strange things.
The label situated under indicates "WUR0385" and the Microsoft reference number X 09-55569.
One of them generates spontaneously and intermittently 2222222222222222. Can I leave a window open and focused notebook, and some time after it will be full of 2 s. tried to disassemble and clean the contact sheets, no improvement.
Other product actions and combinations of strange characters when you press some keys. For example:
number zero (first row) often is 0.
Letter 'p' prints the letter as well as a carriage return and opens an Internet Explorer window
a semicolon causes a 'My Documents' window to open it and try to connect to Windows Messenger
a slash (/) print often / + and opens the calculator
Shift-slash print? + and opens Media Player
A bar of volume will appear in double quotes.
The batteries are charged, and the receiver is about two inches from the keyboard.
Can anyone offer a solution to these problems?
Hi Techineer54,
- When was the last time it was working fine?
Method 1
I suggest to use the keyboard of the screen and check if the problem persists.
Open and customize the Visual keyboard

Method 2
You can also connect two keyboards on another computer and see if the problem still occurs.

Bug switching of keyboard input method
Hello
I have a Windows 8 English installation on a computer with a German keyboard. I don't want every time that I accidentally hit the windows key and space... which often.
I went to the settings of language and used "delete" to get rid of the English provision, and it worked for a day. Now, however, he's back and I can't remove it because it has already been deleted.
In addition, another bug lays in the "text Services and input languages". Here, I removed shortcuts to change the language input and put on the page, but since the windows + space is not listed here it logically and unfortunately cannot be removed using this method.
Thanks for any help,
James
I have about the same problem. I use a German version of the Windows 8.1, but for my work, I use keyboards English and Russian, switching between them with standard shortcut keys.
It is not a solution, but a kind of way to get around. At least until the next time that you restart.
So. Whenever I restart the computer the German language automatically appears in the keyboard in the notofocation panel selector, while I switch between the three languages. However, it does not appear in the list of languages in the advanced language settings. To delete the selection, I have ADDED the German language in the list of language setting and then remove it from there. After that, she disappears in the notifications Panel.
Too bad that they don't it did not set for so long.

Enter the keyboard ASCII characters
I have a new Inspiron 15R. His keyboard lacks a number pad. I was used to enter an ASCII character directly from the keyboard by pressing ALT + Fn + 0151, for example, to get a dashboard m on the screen. This laptop lacks a number pad. Then, on how to enter ASCII characters directly?
AutoHotkey is promising. I'll give it a try. Also, after some poking around in Outlook, I found the key to the symbols. He has a couple of symbols in double for the dash and the dash m and is located next to the symbols in the character array. For example, pressing Alt + X on 2012, you get a character exactly as a dash. The code for the dashboard m is 2015, Alt + X. thanks, everyone.
