Wireless keyboard and mouse

Most problem with the wireless keyboards and mice are one of them is not responding or not connecting to the wireless USB adapter that's connected to the computer, here are the things that you may do:

1. Make sure to use fresh batteries.

2. Verify if the keyboard and mouse are turned ON.

3. Avoid putting any possible wireless interference such as base of a cordless telephone and cell phones.

4. In pairing up the keyboard or the mouse, try pressing the connect button on the USB wireless receiver followed by the connect button on the wireless keyboard or mouse.

5. If that did not help, then hold down both connect buttons (on the wireless receiver and on the keyboard or mouse at the same time for five (5) seconds and then release them both).

The keyboard or the mouse should connect to the USB receiver. If same problem occur, then the device needs repair.

Not sure if it's a wireless connection issue or a keyboard hardware issue

Did you replace the batteries in the keyboard? Usually wireless keyboards or mice are powered by AA or AAA batteries. I would replace first to see if that is your problem

Most mice that are wireless use connect button along with the usb portion will sometimes have a connect button as well you have to click them both within a few secs of each other to sync them also make sure you plugged the usb part back into the same usb port on the pc.

key board not working plz help me

First, try to replace the batteries and make sure that the switch is turned ON. Then, check the wireless USB adapter if there is a small button that you use in order to connect the keyboard or mouse.

Briefly press that connect button, then hold down the connect button on the keyboard for five seconds. If that did not hep, try to connect the USB receiver into different USB ports of the computer, or might as well, try different computer just for isolation.

If the keyboard still does not work, but the mouse does, then there's a problem with the component on the keyboard that transmits signal from the keyboard to the USB adapter.

You may need to send the keyboard and USB adapter to the manufacturer for repair.

Thank you and good luck!
