    Microsoft 3050 keyboard combo issue


    I have a room full of Microsoft 3050 keyboard/mouse combos. They are all spread out and I don't know which keyboard is suppose to be paired with what mouse/usb. Is there a way to see which keyboard belongs to which mouse and usb? If not is there a way to resync a keyboard to a separate usb/mouse

    :)

    Microsoft Keyboard 3050

    Thank you for your suggestions dated 12 August and subsequent followup.

    The problem still persists and I hope the following information will help you to give me more advice.

    • What are the basic functions that are not working?
    Mail button, home, and headphone buttons work. The rest do not. Also, I cannot open the file which shows the functions of the various keys.

    • Any changes to the device prior to the issue?
    There was an update but I did not make a note of it, sorry.

    • Which Windows version?
    Windows Enterprise. Version 1607.

    Note. The device will not download Version 1703 but tries daily.



    I have performed the clean boot operation several times. The only result is that I can now use the three buttons listed above. No other changes.

    Initially, when I first purchased the keyboard, I inserted batteries, plugged in the USB stick and everything worked OK. I have downloaded the software for the 3050 keyboard from the web and tried to use that – no improvement.



    I must advise you that I am using an unactivated version of Windows10. After the initial download in late 2016 I experienced lots of problems. (See my past posts on these). In an effort to clear these I had a re-installation of W10 done, which has
    turned out to be unactivated. The computer and 3050 keyboard then worked perfectly for some weeks until the keyboard stopped working. It works fine as a standard keyboard. The PC also works fine with an old wired keyboard.



    One further point. I also have a laptop and have connected the 3050 keyboard to it. It works 100% on the laptop!!!

    I hope you can come up with some ideas.

    Thanks.

  3. microsoft wireless keyboard 3050 connected but not working

    Hello Stefano,

    To better assist you with your concern, I'd like to know the following:

    • Confirm which build is currently installed on your device. To check, follow the steps below:
    1. Press Windows key + R, then type in winver.
    2. Click OK.
    • What is the make and model of your device?
    • Have you tried using another keyboard?

    In case that your computer is running on OS Build 16299.248,
    some USB devices and on-board devices, such as a built-in laptop camera, keyboard or mouse, may stop working for some users.

    Furthermore, I'd recommend performing the steps in this article to troubleshoot
    the said issue.

    In addition, you can check this article to troubleshoot response failures in wireless
    keyboard or mouse.

    If the issue still persists, there's a possibility that the issue is caused by a hardware failure since you've mentioned that you've tried connecting the mouse and keyboard on a Windows 7 platform and still experienced the same issue. In this case, it would
    be best to ask assistance from the store where you've purchased the device to check for warranty coverage.

    Looking forward to your response.

    Regards.
