nvda/tablet is working again

molly the blind tech lover
 

Hey guys, Molly here again.

I hope this message doesn’t get sent twice, because last night I was frustrated and said said things I regret.

Anyway, I discovered that while nvda wasn’t talking while using the keyboard, I could still use the touchscreen. I disconnected the keyboard and cleaned it. It collects dust and crap because of the material it’s made from. Anyway, the machine works completely fine now. And our Internet is working again. As soon as I logged on Nvda wanted me to update some addons. So everything works. I really hope I don’t panic the next time something like this happens. Panicking doesn’t solve anything.  And it just makes me look stupid.

My son has had the surface Pro for a while now and his major complaint is the interface between the tablet and keyboard. Fails to connect often and drops connection often.

Yep, through my close to 30 years of me using confusers , (I was a curious little cuss at age 5) I also learned that the hard way. Lol!
Glad you got nvda working.

Yeah. I think the magnetic strip on the keyboard gets dirty or something.

Me too. This keyboard is frustrating. It sometimes stops working. In that case I still have the touchscreen.

this might be better suited for the windows list, but is there not a way to keep that thing clean if that indeed is the case? I don't own one of these beasts as of yet, but jut asking anyway.

You have to use rubbing alcohol to clean the magnetic pins on the keyboard. Then clean the connectors on the bottom of the machine.

I must be missing something here.  I have owned 3 asus transformer books, love those little things and never had to clean the connectors.


I guess I could see it happening though.

For some reason dust gets in this keyboard and sticks to it. And my cat mr. Jennings tries  to walk on the keyboard. I have to push him away.

I'd not be too worried, we have all been there. Yes why is it that some plastics seem to attract muck and others do not?
Has to be due to those pesky Ions again.
What form of connection does the keyboard use to the machine, or is it purely wireless?

Its very odd they did not simply make it wireless then no need for any connections except a charger.

Actually, alcohol isn't a good choice, as it leaves residue that can cause problems later. Use peroxide, when it evaporates, it doesn't leave any residue, and it cleans just as well.
