  1. Fn Lock and external keyboard function keys


    Hi there,So I seem to have this problem with my external keyboard.The 'Fn lock' is enabled on my laptop, but still the F-keys on my external keyboard act as if it were off act as multimedia keys. When I turn off 'Fn lock' on my laptop, the F-keys on my external keyboard still act as multimedia keys. As far as I can see there's no one that's had this specific problem, more often it's the way around external keyboard keys NOT acting as multimedia keys.I'm using a Lenovo Ideapad 5 laptop and a Logitech K400+ external bluetooth keyboard.Does anyone know how to solve this issue?Thank you!

    :)

    Laptop FN Lock?

    My boss has a Sony Vaio VGN-AR190G, it seems like FN lock is on, because when he types certain letters that have numbers when pushed with the function key, it types numbers instead of letters. I do not even see a function lock key on this keyboard. I'm not really sure what to do. I've tried googling the issue but haven't come up with a solution. There was a wireless keyboard plugged into the laptop for awhile, I checked that one for a FN lock key and it doesn't have one either.

    Microsoft Bluetooth keyboard function keys lock

    Am having trouble getting the function keys lock on my Microsoft Bluetooth keyboard. Found a support posting suggesting that holding down the Fn key while pressing the CAPs lock key for 5 seconds would set the function keys lock, but it doesn't seem to be working for me. Have reset and reconnected my keyboard. Still doesn't seem to work.

    Anyone with any other ideas?

    Notebook keyboard locked?

    I FN'ed every key on that keyboard. I think it must be some kind of key combination that locks and unlocks the keyboard. But I found nothing.
