O.P. [solved] Keyboard hyperlinks help
Right, so i got a new wireless keyboard and mouse for x-mas, and theres hyperlinks on there (like a refresh button, a play button, email ect...) and none of them work with the software i use. Only the volume control does. :/
Is there anyway of making it work with itunes and Mozilla firefox?
*note* this didnt come with a driver
Thanks.

At least for my keyboard, the driver software can change the button settings.

It's probably customizable in the program that the driver installs.....

Nope, i tried it and nothing happened. Im now even more convinced that its used for installation..
EDIT: Fixed. I did a complete Un-install, and then re-installed with the driver, and now everythings working. Thanks everyone who helped.

RE: [solved] Keyboard hyperlinks help
Note: What those extra buttons do has actually not much to do with drivers. It might help as in: those drivers provide an extra userfriendly way to configure them. But actually those buttons can be configured by just altering some Windows registry settings, no drivers are needed for that at all.
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\AppKey
Tweaker programs like TweakUI for example will let you define what those extra buttons actually do too (as it is in fact nothing more than a registry setting).
The reason why re-installing the driver might have worked is because the first time the driver wasn't installed properly and thus also not those registry changes, whereas the second time you installed the driver, the registry settings were altered.
