Toshiba Satellite 1400 keyboard replacement

Step 1: Orient the hinges
The two plastic hinge mechanisms must be oriented as shown to fit into the base of the keyboard
Step 2: Hook the hinge onto the base
Hook the plastic tab on one side of a hinge under the socket on the base of the keyboard. In this example, the bottom of the left hinge is being put into place first.
Step 3: Secure the hinge into place
Squeezing the other side of the hinge, tuck the remaining plastic tab into the base of the keyboard. You will probably need a tool to do this, like a pair of needle-nose pliers. Repeat steps two and three for the second hinge on the other side. To fit the key on easily, make sure both hinges are moved out from the center, all the way back into their sockets.
Step 4: Place the rubber spring piece
If your keyboard is missing the rubber spring piece, place it in the center of the hinge. It will be held in place by the surrounding key and hinge.
Step 5: Press the key into place
Align the key on top of its place on the keyboard, and press down evenly. All four corners of the key should click into place.

How to Use a Symbol When You Have a Laptop
1, Make sure you have a laptop that has those hidden numbers on some of your letter keys. (Usually a different color than white).
You could also have a separate regular keyboard instead of using the keyboard that is in your laptop.

2, Look for a key that matches the color of the hidden key-number.

3, Hold down this key, then start holding down the Alt key, then hold down the hidden key with the number 3 on it.

4, Congratulate yourself. You now have a heart!

5, Remember you can also go into your character map, a few utility in Windows, to find the symbol that you want, cut it, and paste it.

Try to hold down the keys all at the same time.
If you don't have a newer laptop, then you can type in & hearts ; but without the spaces.

Laptop Keyboard Sony Various VGN-NR

Laptop Keyboard Sony Various VGN-NR Series
Compatible Code:NSK-S6101 9J.N0A82.101 81-31205001-04
Fits Models: Various VGN-NR Series, Various VGN-NR160ES, Various VGN-NR110E, Various VGN-NR260ES, Various VGN-NR240ET, Various VGN-NR280ES, Various VGN-NR260ET, Various VGN-NR285ES, Various VGN-NR280ET, Various VGN-NR110ES, Various VGN-NR120ES, Various VGN-NR123ES, Various VGN-NR110ET, Various VGN-NR220ES, Various VGN-NR240ES, Various VGN-NR160E

Type Foreign Language Characters with an American Keyboard
1,Go to the Control Panel and click on Regional and Language Options.
2,Click the Language tab, and under text services, click "details".
This will open another window with the list of installed and available languages.
3,If you wish, remove the English US keyboard from the list. Highlight it in the list and click Remove.
Alternatively, you can have multiple keyboards installed at once. (For instance, the configuration shown includes Greek and Dvorak keyboards.) For multiple keyboards, you may select the default keyboard of your choice. You may also wish to define a keystroke to switch between the selected keyboards.
4,Click add.
5,Pick the first thing as English (USA). Click on the second one below it and find United States (International).
6,Click OK, and OK and you have it!
7,To use this keyboard, notice that it is similar, with a few differences. For example, when you push the [`] button (next to the one) it just makes a backtick [`]. However, if you press [`] and then a vowel (for example o) it will produce ò. Typing
[`] and [o] makes ò
['] and [o] makes ó
8,Find more options by pressing SHIFT:
The [~],[^], and ["] also function as accent keys.
[~] and [o] makes õ (~ is also used for Spanish ñ or Portuguese ã)
[^] and [o] makes ô
["] and [o] makes ö
9,Learn to use Alt-Gr. On this keyboard layout, Alt-Gr this takes the place of the Alt key on the right side. Alt is short for "alternative". Press it to get the following keyboard layout:
10,Optional: If you still want to do other unicode characters like ţ, ş, ă, ą, ł, or ☏, ☼, ♂, etc. Install the free software JLG Extended Keyboard Layout then redo the steps above, except that instead of choosing the US International keyboard layout, you choose the US (JLGv11) keyboard. More than 1000 unicode character are made available in this layer.

Note:Some languages still don't have very good software support. Asian languages and Indian languages typically require certain fonts to be installed.
Right-to-left languages, such as Hebrew and Arabic, may display poorly in some circumstances, and may not coexist well in the same page or document as left-to-right languages.

As you can see, this keyboard layout incorporates most letters used for west European languages, including French, Spanish, German, Danish, Old English, Swedish, Portuguese, and others. You can also type world Currency symbols like Euro (€), Yen (¥), and the generic World currency symbol (¤).
These accent adder button things are quite useful, but remember if you want to type just a ["] you will have to press the space bar after it so it is not combined with the next letter (example "At" vs. Ät").
If you are missing other keys you will need to learn the alt+ code for the letter(s), buy a foreign keyboard, or download the Microsoft custom keyboard layout maker from the developers site. To use an alt code, hold down Alt while typing a number. For instance, Alt+165 produces ñ.
If you want to type in a language that is composed of all non-English characters, such as Greek or Russian, it is best to install that keyboard and, if you wish, choose a keystroke to switch between English and that other language.

Pop a Key Back Onto a Dell Laptop Keyboard
1, Start with all the pieces. Examine them carefully. Note where the tiny tabs are on them. Arrange them correctly according to the diagram.
2, Note the orientations of the tabs on the U-shaped piece, and slip the tabs under the metal loops on the laptop.
3, Slip the second O-shaped piece through the centre of the U-piece.
4, Hook the tabs on the O-piece under the hooks on the laptop.
5, Click the tabs in the O-piece into the notches in the U-piece.
6, At this point, the two pieces are gently locked together. If done correctly, they will not sit flat. They will be raised slightly above the laptop surface.
7, Place the key right side up over the U and O pieces.
8, Click it into place.
9, Voila! The key is replaced.

It may be easier to remove the base U-shaped piece from the keyboard in order to attach the O-shaped piece (or attach the pieces together before replacing to keyboard)
You might want to turn your computer off while doing this to avoid causing errors in your open applications.
Make sure you ground your self by placing one hand on the metal part of the notebook
If you break any of the plastic parts on an often used key, you can harvest spare parts from a seldom used key. Just be very careful when taking the key's plastic parts off
For a Latitude D800 this works slightly different. Best tip is to carefully remove another key as well and peek how to do it.
If you are trying to put the spacebar on your dell laptop, there is also a long U shaped metal wire. Two ends of the wire go into their slots, and then you can pop back the spacebar key on top of the frames (i.e. the two set of frames for the spacebar)

It's all too easy to pop the keys off a laptop, and almost impossible to get them back on without losing or destroying the nigh-microscopic parts. This is a step-by-step diagram of how to put the keys back together on a Dell 4150 Inspiron, but the principles should work on other Dell laptops; these steps with HP Pavilion notebooks as well.

Note:Make sure that you don't scratch the board underneath the key on some models.
Doing this may void your warranty.
