Logitech Wave Keyboard skipping characters
Out of no where, my keyboard started malfunctioning. I'm typing along and some characters don't show up on the screen like they've always done, and there was no discernable pattern. So this wasn't a hardware issue per se. And the keyboard is fairly clean. The SetPoint software says the batteries in the keyboard have a "Good" status.
Found that I wasn't alone - "Wave Keyboard Slow Response-Misses Characters Typed"
I have been using a wireless Wave keyboard/mouse combo for several months. 2 months ago, the keyboard started responding very slowly (missing characters as I typed). At the time, I tried everything, including replacing batteries, reinstalling the software and the procedure for reconnecting the keyboard, including taking the batteries out and typing for 2 minutes to discharge the capacitors. Eventually it started working again.
Now it has happened again, and I did it all over again, but it still won't work.
...
What else can I try? This is driving me nuts.
One thing to do to troubleshoot:
Please try the keyboard on another computer and see if the same problem occurs.
What's worked for me, so far, is to take out the batteries for a couple of minutes to let the capacitors discharge, and install the latest SetPoint software (version 6.32.7 at time of this post.)
