Wow, cheers. I've had the V, B and N key off my keyboard for a while now and couldn't fix it. We just fixed it and now I'M SO GLAD I CAN ACTUALLY TYPE PROPERLY.
Okay! So the pieces that come under the key, the white things, came off with the key! They're still attached to it but the whole thing isn't attached to the keyboard! What do I do?!
@WarThemedRevolution Just pull the white tabs out of the key.. They should be just snapped in place and come out quite easily, just don't break off the hinge tabs.
Hi. My C button works fine, but the plastic thing between the button and the metal stuff is bugging me, to i decided to take it all up and start over again. But they do not want to 'click together' as easy like you do, i need an answer asap :( i dont know how this happpend, all in a sudden it began being a little bit bouncy to press on...
Hi I am having a problem I am a gamer and somtimes in the middle of games my keyboard will stop responding like usual.For example if i hit 1 it will open up internet explorer and 2 will open microsoft word.It does not only happen with my numpad but any letter will open a program on my computer and minimize my game.Is this a problem with my laptop or my beyboard. PS this happens with my usb keyboard and the standard one on the laptop
@OGKpressure You run Windows 7? Windows 7 (and maybe Vista too, idk) has several hot-keys you can use to open programs.. Usually you have to hold down the Windows key at the same time though. Windows key + 1 opens the first program on your start bar (right next to your start menu), 2 starts the next, etc. If this isn't your case, then I don't know what your computer's problem could be... Keyboard software maybe?
dang how do you change the 2 top clickers on the laptop in front of the track pad I have a messed up one can you rplace them or tighten them some how?
@vegito89000 Possibly a computer repair shop in your area, otherwise you'll have to look online... Ebay sells them, you just have to make sure you get the right one for your laptop.
THANK YOU. You just helped me replace my W key after an epic cleaning fail where I couldn't get it back on!!! Oh my God thank you SO MUCH! Best Christmas present ever!!
hey can you help me? when i was playing a game on my laptop my dog jumped into my lap and well a key fell off. it was a k key and when it fell off it took the little white square thing with it. is there a way to get it back on? because i thing one of the things that held down the key broke because when i try to push it back into place it wont grip it. any suggestions?
I reay need hep, this ooks so stupid. Basicy the etter after "k" on my aptop just stopped working as you can see. I reay need it for writing essays and shit, any ideas?
@crunkyfunkyspunky Sounds like your key may have bitten the dust... Or maybe something got underneath the key and isn't allowing it to press fully? Pry the key off (if it isn't already) and see if there's anything stuck in there.. If not, I'm afraid there's not much in the way I can help, sorry.
Thank You! I just lifted my cat off my hubby's keyboard and two keys came with her. Your helpful video allowed me to fix it before realizing the dilemma.
Wow thank you so much! my x key flew off after me yanking my blanket off the couch (how did i manage that?). Although a little confusing at first since my black/white things are reversed and its a bit difficult to tell which way is up.down from the video i figured it out. woohoo.
My puppy ran over my laptop, popping off the L keycap, I have a HP laptop, i can't get the cap to stop popping off. I pushed down hard to see if it snapped back into place, and it didn't. I don't know what to do...anyone?
@SteveIsBrootal Check to see if the tabs are still on the bottom of the key.... One or both may have snapped off, in which case you'll need to get a new key, or replace it with one you don't use as often. I broke my V key a while back making another video, and replaced it with the right-click key next to the right side Ctrl key.
PLEASE HELP!!!!!! My T key popped off and the little turny thingy on it was stuck to the key so i popped it off, and I placed it on the original key place, but when I go to type with the T key, it gets out of place and it usually comes off the keyboard. so PLEACE i would appreciate it if you would reply and tell me what to do! THANK YOU!!!
Thank you so so much. You have saved my life. My husband warned me that if I let the kids play on the new laptop they better treat it right and the G key came off earlier and I could just hear him saying "I told you so!!!". Thank you so much!
Oh my god, thank you for this video! I was playing with my new laptop, noticing I'd dropped a few crumbs on it already. :( So I figured I'd pop off one of the keys so I could assess how to clean the keyboard like I knew I would inevitably have to. Imagine my dilemma when I couldn't figure out how to put the key back on. D: But your video saved me! So again, thank you!
I can know type E! EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
What do you do if the rubber thingy breaks off? When you buy the single key does it like come with those those things with the indentations and the rubber thing?
@FaceToYouReality When you buy the key, it should come with the hinges (the things with the tabs), however if the rubber cap has come off, that's not easily replaced and you may have to replace the keyboard entirely. However, if you can find some double-sided tape, cut it down to the size of the rubber cap, and you should be able to stick it back in place and have it work.
My left shift was not working properly and I decided to puss it a little and well...guess what happened, then I freaked out. Thanks to that and your video, my key is back to the right place and working perfectly!
I blame my dog for alot of things... when i was younger "my dog ate my homework!!" "now.. "my dog ate my taxes" but this time, it was actually my dog who pulled my charger & my laptop fell and the . button and now i have to click the lil thingy to write .
I had this problem with an acer. My big figers would get under the keys and flick then off when typing. I had a hard time replacing keys and just got a new keyboard. I also brought a keyboard skin. Now my fingers don't get stuck under the keys when typing.
i have a light up keyboard and this shit doesn't work at all. pretty pissed as it's my shift key and to maintain my girly badass gamer status, i'd like that key to work >_>
i have a problem i was using somekind of shit glass and windows cleaner with alhcohol and cleaned my laptop and caps lock started being num1 when i press it i get num 1 but it fixed it self but now a,b,n, enter key dont work btw im using on screen keyboard so any help?
@AK49BWL i need serious help i cant put the u key all the way on the bottom part that has the hooks further away will clip but the top of the key with the hooks closer together wont snap in
thank you for posting this! i am NOT techy person at all but this was very helpful and i was able to replace a few keys on my sister's laptop that my son removed... ha :)
@LauraK2k8 I had that problem with my V key.. I accidentally broke the hinge connection on the underside of the key, so you may want to check that... If it's not broken, be sure you're sliding the top of the key over the hinges correctly - the key tabs may not be catching the hinges. Beyond that... I can't be sure.
@AK49BWL it seems ok the top to are catching but the bottom to arent ,,, thanks anyway ,, :) im goin to get my brothers friend to take alook he's good with this stuff :)
what if the black and white things that go together are already on the key, and the key is not on the keyboard, it snap on since its like the opposite of what you did
@lllunatix I had problems trying to do it that way.. The best bet is to pull the hinges off the key, install them on the keyboard first, then put the key on.
im having trouble hooking up the black one going underneath the top two white tabs. it just wont click for some reason. the bottom part will click just fine though.
the black and white thingys are broken on mine there all white on mine its a dell but it snapped and my six key dont work do you know where you can buy some if u live in the UK ?
I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I'm following the instructions to the letter (ha ha) but my "y" key keeps ending up tilted downward toward the "h" key. y oh y?
P.S. P.S. I have a Dell Vostro 1400 and to be more clear, the whole key flaps from the top like at in the video at the 2:50 point where he's demoing the black part and the white part together.
@MsOpYop haha, love the play on "y" :p What this sounds like is, your key may be broken and not catching the tabs on the hinges. That's what happened to my V key after tearing it off so many times... Either that, or the hinge is not properly set on the keyboard. I would completely remove both key and hinges and make sure they were put on properly to begin with.. After making sure the Y key still has its little clips. If it doesn't, then you'll need a new key...
@MsOpYop Or you could do like I did and replace the Y key with the key that is next to the left arrow and right Ctrl keys.. In fact, give that a shot and see if it works properly. If not, check the hinges. If so, check the Y key.
The hinges on my little plastic things broke, so where do I get more of those little plastic things that connect the key to the keyboard? The Best Buy Geek Squad told me it's almost impossible to replace a key, and they wanted to send the whole computer out for a keyboard replacement! I will never pop a key off again, to try to get a fingernail clipping out from underneath the keys!
@Teflon65 ebay will have what you're looking for, and the BB Geek Squad is useless, IMO. All you have to do is search for "[laptop model] keyboard key" on ebay, and generally you'll get a few listings that tell you to specify what key you need upon checkout, and have you verify your keyboard type.. It's a little involved, but much better than going without a laptop for a while over a keyboard key. Replacement keyboards are cheap as well, and VERY easy to replace for the DIYer.
@AK49BWL I agree with you about the Geek Squad. I've been warned about them by others. Do you think there would be any other place in my area that would have the kind of hinge mechanisms, or whatever you call them. I hate to purchase things online, if I can help it. Thanks for your advice. I appreciate it.
@Teflon65 Well, if you have any certified computer repair shops around, you could always check them out and see if they have what you need. They won't generally be large places, so a phone book or google will help in finding them. Here in AK, we've got a place called Computer Renaissance, and they've got all sorts of parts (and complete replacement keyboards for almost any make/model laptop lol), and very affordable pricing.. So your best bet likely would be to find a place like that near you.
@AK49BWL Yeah, you are just confirming what I was thinking, but I appreciate it. It makes me feel like I'm on the right path. I'll use ebay as a kind of last resort. I would think that there's someplace here where I a

@LauraK2k8 I had that problem with my V key.. I accidentally broke the hinge connection on the underside of the key, so you may want to check that... If it's not broken, be sure you're sliding the top of the key over the hinges correctly - the key tabs may not be catching the hinges. Beyond that... I can't be sure.

what if the black and white things that go together are already on the key, and the key is not on the keyboard, it snap on since its like the opposite of what you did
lllunatix 1 year ago
@lllunatix I had problems trying to do it that way.. The best bet is to pull the hinges off the key, install them on the keyboard first, then put the key on.

I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I'm following the instructions to the letter (ha ha) but my "y" key keeps ending up tilted downward toward the "h" key. y oh y?

P.S. P.S. I have a Dell Vostro 1400 and to be more clear, the whole key flaps from the top like at in the video at the 2:50 point where he's demoing the black part and the white part together.
MsOpYop 1 year ago
@MsOpYop haha, love the play on "y" :p What this sounds like is, your key may be broken and not catching the tabs on the hinges. That's what happened to my V key after tearing it off so many times... Either that, or the hinge is not properly set on the keyboard. I would completely remove both key and hinges and make sure they were put on properly to begin with.. After making sure the Y key still has its little clips. If it doesn't, then you'll need a new key...
AK49BWL 1 year ago
@MsOpYop Or you could do like I did and replace the Y key with the key that is next to the left arrow and right Ctrl keys.. In fact, give that a shot and see if it works properly. If not, check the hinges. If so, check the Y key.

The hinges on my little plastic things broke, so where do I get more of those little plastic things that connect the key to the keyboard? The Best Buy Geek Squad told me it's almost impossible to replace a key, and they wanted to send the whole computer out for a keyboard replacement! I will never pop a key off again, to try to get a fingernail clipping out from underneath the keys!

@Teflon65 ebay will have what you're looking for, and the BB Geek Squad is useless, IMO. All you have to do is search for "[laptop model] keyboard key" on ebay, and generally you'll get a few listings that tell you to specify what key you need upon checkout, and have you verify your keyboard type.. It's a little involved, but much better than going without a laptop for a while over a keyboard key. Replacement keyboards are cheap as well, and VERY easy to replace for the DIYer.
AK49BWL 1 year ago
@AK49BWL I agree with you about the Geek Squad. I've been warned about them by others. Do you think there would be any other place in my area that would have the kind of hinge mechanisms, or whatever you call them. I hate to purchase things online, if I can help it. Thanks for your advice. I appreciate it.
Teflon65 1 year ago
@Teflon65 Well, if you have any certified computer repair shops around, you could always check them out and see if they have what you need. They won't generally be large places, so a phone book or google will help in finding them. Here in AK, we've got a place called Computer Renaissance, and they've got all sorts of parts (and complete replacement keyboards for almost any make/model laptop lol), and very affordable pricing.. So your best bet likely would be to find a place like that near you.
AK49BWL 1 year ago
@AK49BWL Yeah, you are just confirming what I was thinking, but I appreciate it. It makes me feel like I'm on the right path. I'll use ebay as a kind of last resort. I would think that there's someplace here where I a
