    So yeah they suddenly stopped working.


    I use them to control youtube without tabbing in and out. They work on windows media player and groove music, but that's all. They worked on Opera before.

    Multimedia keys on keyboard stop working suddenly...


    Hi guys,

    I am experiencing an annoying issue with Windows 10 and my Cherry keyboard (Cherry eVolution Stream Multimedia Keyboard G85-23000), especially with the multimedia keys.

    Upon a boot / reboot all the multimedia keys are working without issues: mute, volume up/down, etc.
    However sometimes it stops working completely (completely random). I have no idea what is causing it or how to solve it.

    When they stop working I cannot get them back working at all anymore, other then rebooting my PC. Obviously this is not a solution, because I have to close everything I was working on.

    While typing this, I tried to unplug and plug back in the keyboard. Apparently that solves it also. Though this is not a good solution, because the backside of my PC is not easily reached.

    Cherry keyboard don't have drivers available, so that's not a solution. Also removing the HID keyboard thing from hardware devices and reinstall / refresh doesn't provide a solution.

    Anyone else experiencing this? Or has a solution for this problem? Would be great, because I am very used to using the multimedia keys (especially the volume keys).

    I am using the Windows 10 Pro Insider Preview version. Version 1511 (build 14257.1000).
    Maybe it's an issue with the insider version, or something else. Or my hardware combination... I have no clue...

    Thanks in advance.

  4. Next/Previous Multimedia buttons on keyboard no longer working play/pause/stop works

    Side button on G502 stopped working

    Hello,

    I've been using my G502 mouse for a long time , and it's great, recently however my side button (the "forward" button) has stopped working.

    I use this button alot when browsing and I don't know why but it no longer does it's function so I'm asking if anyone might be able to help me in this. I installed Logitech Gaming Software to check if maybe the button is unbinded but everything is normal. I also unplugged/plugged my mouse to see if it works and also restarting my PC, however still nothing.

    Anyone have any suggestions , I really like this mouse and would love to fix any problem it has.

    Thanks in forward.
