Keyboards and Keyboard/Mice Combo Sets

[linda102]

I just received my keyboard and I love it.  But, when I hit the shift key to make a capital letter, some letters don't work. I have to hit the caps lock and do it that way.

I'm having the same problem and hoping for a solution.  I'm finding this to be the case when trying to type in Q, U, Z, F, L and +.

I got those typed into this text box by holding down shift, depressing the key in question (such as the = key to create a "+" sign) and while keeping the targeted key held down, releasing shift.  I then have about a split second to release the key before I end up with a series of the same character.

So pattern has to be:  Hold Shift -> Press Target Key -> Release Shift -> Release Target Key.

Hello Imcfarlin and linda102,

Do your keyboards behave this way if either the left or right shift keys are used ? What operating system is this happening on ? If possible please try the keyboards on a different system if the issue follows the keyboard this would indicate a hardware problem . If the issue is not happening on a different system you will need to look at your operating system and language selection . Please post your findings when time permits .

Best Regards,

I've been experiencing the problem at work, on my Windows 7 Ultimate laptop (Dell Precision M6500).

I brought the keyboard home today to try on my home desktop which is also running Windows 7 Ultimate.  I'm currently experiencing the exact same problem with the exact same keys (F, U, Q, Z, L, +).  The issue comes up intermittently but lasts hours, up to a full work day.  Yesterday, on 10/4, I went through an entire day at work without experiencing the problem.

Forgot to mention that I'm on Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit edition.  I've also tried running with 802.11 wifi disabled with no effect.

Hello Imcfarlin,

Since you have experienced this issue on different systems , I suggest contacting Logitech Customer support for your region as this would indicate a hardware failure.

how far away from the receiver are you using the kb   iv seen this issue when ive been to far away and moving the kb closer helped 

[lmcfarlin]

At work, I'm about 2' away from the receiver.  At home, about 4'.  I'm just going to go ahead and return this to the retailer and purchase another illuminated keyboard instead since that's been working well for a while now.

this pattern seems to work and i have the exact same issue. also, i noticed that the problem exists with the right shift and not the left. Strangly enough i found out that the "D" can not be typed with right shift but the left shift is ok and the "U" can not be typed with left shift but is ok with right. what on earth is wrong with this keyboard!!!
