Hello. One time, my space bar bent to the right. Using small tools, my grandpa was able to take it off and re-attach it. I never had a problem with it afterward. So I know that it is certainly possible for someone other than hw or a computer repair shop to fix problems like this.

Hi. My enter key came off my keyboard and is now in 3 pieces. There is the kind of oval shaped key which is 1 piece. Then the second piece is a piece of metal that looks like a paper clip would look if you unbent both ends all the way and unfolded it and then bent both ends back on themselves about a half an incheach. Hope this description makes sense. Anyhow, the third piece
is a piece of rubber which is kind of round with a round whole at one end and a pointy end on the other end. I can not afford to send my unit in to hw or a local computer shop. I can use the thumb keys or the middle of the scroll wheel for an enter key in some cases like to press enter on a file or folder name, but that does not work for stuff like enter with dot 4 to turn up the volume or enter with dot 1 to turn it down or enter with dots 2-5-6 to look up a word in the dictionary and stuff like that. The place where the enter key used to be is now an oval indentation with one little round thing in each of the 4 corners and also 2 little rectangular things, one at the top middle and one at the bottom middle. Also, in the center of the oval indentation there is a round whole I have to stick my finger into to make the enter key work when I need to do something the scroll wheel or thumb keys do not work for as described above. Is there any way I can fix it myself or if not, at least something to put in the whole and have it stay there so I do not have to stick my finger way down in the whole and I can just press down on the thing I put on top of the whole? Please, Please help! Thank you. -------------------------------BNU: BrailleNote Users - a forum for users of BrailleNote family of products from Humanware.
