Wireless ergonomic keyboard

I bought an ergonomic keyboard MICROSOFT wireless about four months ago.  Since then, the letters have mostly disappeared; for example: e, r, t, i, o, s, d, l, c, n and many others we get very light.  It's maddening, because I always put 'o' where 'i' go or vice versa.  I do a lot of mistakes.  Is there any type of paint, what can I use to replace these letters.   I tried Nail Polish, but it does not appear on the keys.  Why Microsoft made keyboards who lose something as necessary as the keys on the keyboard.  Before I bought this card that came with the computer did the same thing, but HP has sent me another Board.  Since I bought one from Best Buy, nobody is interested in the fact that there is something terribly wrong with the paint they use on the keys.   Should not began to fade within two months of the purchase.  Not what someone out there agree with me?   May we make a suggestion as to how I can fix the priblem.

We cannot help with the same here because this group is only to answer questions about the functioning of the Forum itself.

But as a personal entry, I'd take you back to where you bought and see if they ca fix the problem. I have more than 6 years, MacBook Pro and I stay on the line, almost every day. And no keys has dissipated painting. So what is happening is an unusual case and should last 10-15 years. I have some keys that have been hit so many times they have a glow to them and may have dirt that makes them not perfectly white. But they are not faded or disappeared. Looks like they have used defective paint.

  • Ergonomic keyboard 7000 Microsoft wireless driver install in Windows 7, 64 bit

    I have been using for several years Microsoft 7000 wireless ergonomic keyboard. You usually only need to use it on one other machine is to plug in the receiver, which installs and you can use it.

    I can't not much install on machines running Windows 7, 64-bit at work where I need to use different machines. It is said that the installation is fails when the receiver is connected and suggests to download a driver. I did it on the microsoft hardware site.

    On a single machine, it worked the day that I did, but then when I went to use the machine on another day it wouldn't work - if I try to download the driver again, it says that it cannot do this because a newer version is already loaded.

    On a second machine it worked, but I was not to try again.

    On a third machine, it did not work and I said needed an administrator to install it.

    The keyboard works fine on machines with other versions of Windows including Windows 7 32 bit.

    The 64 bit version of Windows 7 appears to be the problem. I found a previous in this respect thread, but no solution for me.

    Any suggestions?

  • New ergonomic keyboard high range. When?

    Years now, I'm waiting for an ergonomic keyboard more modern than the natural ergonomic 4000 (with all the features of the Wireless Entertainment Desktop 8000 and maybe even more). They did stop developing keyboards high-end or something? It has been some years since their latest design.

    If referring to Microsoft Hardware ergonomics, you will find the list of all Microsoft Hardware on:

    Here, you could look for patterns of ergonomics and there's a lot there.

  • Am I able to configure a wireless iMac keyboard to emulate the way a Windows keyboard responds to a depression of the DELETE keys and BACKSPACE?

    Am I able to configure a wireless iMac keyboard to emulate the way a Windows keyboard responds to a depression of the DELETE keys and BACKSPACE? I want to delete either to the left right GOLD of the cursor. By pressing the DELETE key on Mac does remove one way, but I want the ability to delete in both directions. The Windows keyboard provides a delete key to remove to the right and a key to return back to remove to the left. So I can configure an iMac for this keyboard? My thought is to keep the delete key as it is and ADD a new function to one of the function keys to delete characters to the left. Thanks for your time and your help.

    Mac can go both ways, in case this is useful.  You can use fn more delete to delete to the right.  Also control more.

  • Microsoft 4000 ergonomic keyboard

    Today, I bought a new Microsoft 4000 ergonomic keyboard.  Can someone tell me how to remove the plastic lip that triggers the edge before (palmrest) about an inch?  Thank you.

    Turn the keyboard on my knees (the lip will be on the lap), so it does not slip. There are three clips on the underside of the lip, pull the lip evenly and voila! Hope it works; He has done for me, by trial and error.

  • No CD-ROM with ergonomic keyboard 4000, then things do not work

    Hello Allayas!  :-)

    OK, so I recently bought a:
    Microsoft 4000 ergonomic keyboard

    Only problem is that it didn't come with the CD-ROM, which usually has the drivers, other software/freeware and instructions and so on and so forth.

    IE: for example -.

    • I can't use 5 programmable keys at the top of the keyboard, in the Center, and I think ' they are supposed to be the most important because of their location and so on.
    • The Zoom slider in the middle of the keyboard is ab-so-lute-ly, nada! [Samething goes for the key with the big star on this subject.]
    • Almost all the buttons do nothing. Not at all.
    • more there are things written on the front of the keys, I have no idea what to do with them. They have words like: {copy, paste, cut, search, save, all pointed out, new open, print, italics and they also} a few buttons that work, like, on the F12 key, it says 'print', well I say is for printing

    Is it possible that I can get a 'friend' to post, so I can download the contents of their CD, as everything in a folder and let download me, or you can send it to me to.

    Thank you very much

  • HP Wireless Elite keyboard (2) communicate do not at all.

    My keyboard elite wireless HP (mouse) has worked with my old laptop and another computer, plug and play, even if I don't install any software.   However, it does not connect with my new.    The laptop and another desktop computer on which he has worked have since crashed.  Today, I tried 2 HP Wireless Elite keyboard on a different laptop and 2 new desktop computers, without success.

    Plug the USB hub, the computer says that it loads the driver fine, but not output from the keyboards at all. I tried:

    • Press and hold the connection button on the keyboard several times.
    • I loaded the software and the icon shows that the batteries are full.
    • I changed the batteries, in any case, nothing helps.
    • Checked the control panel. The keyboard is displayed in devices and printers, and the State shows that it works very well.
    • I tried to update the driver through properties of the device, but he said that the last one is already installed.
    • I went to the HP website and downloaded the new software, anyway, but not luck.

    I tried the above on 3 different computers. Two have Windows 7 64-bit and Windows XP 64-bit.  Same results.  I have also another HP Wireless Elite keyboard bought a few years ago but never opened until today.   It's showing the same exact symptoms.

    I noticed that the blue light on the USB hub is still only on a few seconds when it is plugged in (two of them). It lights when you press the button to connect, or when a key is pressed.    I thought that this light flashes all the time, or at least when I was typing, even though it was plugged into the back of the computer, so I may be wrong on exactly when it came.  I remember just that blinking, used to be distracting during the night.

    I hate to have to buy new keyboards when I two of my favorites here. They are not cheap, either.

    I was finally able to get the keyboard to work.  It turns out that it was the TYPE of battery used.  Duracell copper top, new brand Energizer Ultimate Lithium ($$) and industrial Energizer did NOT work.  I used the batteries provided with the new keyboard and it works.  They say just Energizer on them, no special effects or adjectives thereafter.

    It's incredibly picky.
