  • How to install a wireless keyboard and mouse in Windows 7

    I installed windows 7 on my neighbor's computer.  I do not have the keyboard and the mouse at the time so I used one of my own (not wireless).  Now, I have a keyboard and mouse, but can not understand how to operate.  The computer is a gateway FX400 XL.  I went to the front door and downloaded a driver entered Gateway 400 series for Windows 7 32-bit system.  I then ran the installation for this driver who really seemed to be for Windows XP.  I shut down the computer, unplugged my mouse and keyboard, and return the computer.  I have a cursor on the screen but it won't move and the keyboard does not work.  I then plugged my keyboard and mouse again and still works.  Any ideas as to what I should try next?

    Hello Willie Wonka 2,.

    Mouse and keyboard wirelesss should have with its own installation disc you need to first install. You should also have a "receiver" which the mouse and the keyboard must be synchronized with to make them work properly. If you look at the bottom of the mouse and keyboard, you should see a button 'tiny' with the words 'connect' next to them. You must move the mouse close the "receiver" and press the button connect the mouse with a blunt object (pencil will usually do). All the lights of the "receiver" will start to Flash when the mouse connects. When they stop flashing the connection generally were filed. You will need to do the same thing with the keyboard.

    Regarding the drivers, you should check the site of manufacturers of keyboard and mouse for the updates.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8500 a: printer no longer works after reset wireless network

    OfficeJet Pro 8500 has, MacBook Pro, running the Mavericks.

    For 3 days, when we added a password and blocked our router wireless (modem ATT UVerse), our printer is "offline" print jobs queued, but do not print.  When I go and check it says "printer offline".  Or in the print queue, it is something like "looking for printer."

    He worked briefly when we found a power cord and plugged into the laptop, but will not work wireless, which he did before.    No changes except to repeat password for the network.

    I have the manual and you have turned off everything, then return in the order recommended (router, printer, then laptop).  Always offline.   Can someone please?   Thank you!

    Hello @LindaGrace,

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support!

    I understand that since to add a password to your wireless router your HP Officejet Pro 8500 has e-All-in-One Printer not communicate wirelessly with your computer Mac OS X 10.9. I would like to help you today with this problem of wireless communication.

    Now, make a change to your network, as an addition to a password or change a password, translates into having to reconfigure your printer on the wireless network. At this point your printer is to be 'blocked' access to your network wireless because of the change you made. To correct this problem, you simply raise the Setup wireless for your printer to "say" the printer network name and password. Once the wireless installation runs successfully all will continue to work for you according to the normal.

    To run the Wireless Setup Wizard on your printer, please follow the steps below.

    1. On the touch screen of the printer, press the right arrow key () to display the second navigation screen.
    2. Press network () to open the network Menu.
    3. Touch Wireless.
    4. Press the Wireless Setup Wizard, and then press continue.
    5. Please wait while the printer is looking for the routers that are nearby. Appears in the menu Select Network (SSID) .
    6. Scroll the list of network names until you find the name of your network.
    7. Tap the name of your network.
    8. If you are prompted, enter the WEP or WPA key. This is the password for your wireless network. The password is case-sensitive.
    9. Wait for the printer to connect to the network

    -Source

    Once your printer is connected to your network again, please try to print. If printing still fails, you need to add the printer to your Mac because of the connection of network new printers. Please follow the steps below to add the printer to the Mac.

    1. click on the menu of Apple , then Preferences System.

    2. click on Print & Scanand then check if the name of your printer appears in the printer list.

    3. If your printer is already listed, remove and re-add the printer to check the communication with the Mac. Click on the name of your printer, click the minus sign (), and then delete the printer

    4. click on the plus sign (), click Add a printer or a Scanner, click the name of your printer

    5. click Add to add the printer to the list.

    Now that the printer is properly configured on your network and added to the Mac, please try again to print wireless.

    Please reply to this message with the result of your troubleshooting. Good luck!

  • Keyboard and mouse not working not not after resetting Windows 10

    I have a Dell Inspiron 530 on win 7 now upgraded to win10 1 to August 15. All good until a few days ago, when my wireless keyboard and mouse began paying up, keys not giving the correct characters or symbols. I found a site that offers to win 10, that I did a reset and now I have a PC that looks perfect on the monitor, but not on keyboard. I can't control or use the PC. I plugged my old KB & mouse USB but still no controls in Windows, I tried searching the keyboard and USB settings in the BIOS but can only find switches to change the speed high or low speed USB, tried two and no change. I can't find any advanced settings.

    I tried to find a way to get into safe mode to make changes, but I can't find how to do this without KB or mouse.

    I have a 2nd PC on Windows 7 is anyway to prepare a flash drive to download a fix. I have a 16 GB flash drive.

    I would appreciate any help with this problem

    Best wishes

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    This could be due to problem of incompatibility with the keyboard and mouse drivers. I suggest you use another computer and download the latest compatible keyboard/mouse drivers with the latest operating system (Windows 8.1 is). Download the drivers in the flash player and then install the same drivers in Windows 10 machine and check.

    If the problem persists, install the same driver in compatibility mode for an earlier version of Windows.

    a. do the driver installation file right click and select Properties and then tap or click on the compatibility tab.

    b. check in the run this program in compatibility mode for: box.

    c. press or click the menu drop down and select a previous operating system, and then tap or click OK.

    d. try to install the driver and verify.

    Please refer to: make programs more compatible with this version of Windows (information is good for Windows 10 institutions)

    Hope this information is useful. Please feel free to answer in the case where you are facing in the future other problems with Windows.

  • PowerEdge 840: USB keyboard and mouse not working not.

    Hello everyone.

    Yesterday, I pursached a used Dell Poweredge 840 to function as a backup server, I'm having a few problems with it but I can't understand.

    I installed the server with Windows Server 2003 x 86 edition and downloaded the drivers on the Dell site. It works perfectly, except for one problem:

    USB keyboards and mouse refuse to work.

    PS/2 works fine however, but any USB keyboard or mouse will not work.

    Flash USB drives read very well, therefore I used to recover some files on the machine before, but it was connected to the network, USB keyboard and mouse do not work.

    They are not recognized at startup and do not allow to enter the setup of the BIOS after Windows has started, that they are not always recognized. Windows displays the device as unknown device.

    I tried to boot from a live CD of 14.04 Lubuntu, in which the USB keyboard and mouse do not work either. Only PS/2 wants to work.

    I have tried different types of USB mouse:

    • Microsoft mouse
    • Acer OEM mouse
    • Mouse laser Logitech M-U0007

    None of them could work, although they work fine on my laptop, the main file server which is a model of HP and Dell Optiplex desktop computer.

    I tried a few different USB keyboards as well, but they refuse to work.

    I ended up borrowing a pair of keyboard and mouse PS/2 to configure the server, but I want it to work with my USB keyboard and mouse.

    Just for the record: the USB flash drives do not work very well, it's just the keyboard and mouse is not working.

    Anyone know how I can get there?

    Thanks in advance,

    Dominique

    Hello.

    Unplug all devices connected to the USB and PS/2 ports. Unplug the AC power cable, wait about 1 minute and then press in and hold the button for about 15 seconds. Reconnect the power and power on the server. Connect the keyboard and mouse to the USB ports and try again.
