[Solved] Does the Orbweaver store the active profile on the device like the n52te does? Does it have only the dpad for the thumb buttons?

With the new software it looks like it saves it on your computer BUT it tries to get it from the cloud. The result is that (at least for me) it just kept forgetting which profile to use. In some cases I had to reboot to get it to select my new profile. the thumb has the dpad plus an extra button.

it's saves on the cloud and I use the same profile on both my laptop and gaming machine, works great.As for the thumb stick, I find it much better than my n52te and a lot more responsive. I use it for movement for my first person and mmo games and find it much more comfortable.

The Orbweaver *does not* store the profile on the device, you *must* have the Synapse software installed and running to have the Orbweaver use non-default keys.Your thumb can use the thumbstick, the flat piece that extends out underneath the thumbstick (the "flipper" button), and the button above the thumbstick. So technically 10 if you count all 8 thumbstick directions.

Nope not stored on the device. U can always check the razed webcite. And as far as thumb buttons there is the d pad which has 8 buttons on it, the space bar like button below it and a small button above it

No... All your settings are stored in synapse 2.0 cloud Downloadable from www.razerzone.Com/synapse2And for the thumb... It has 3 cumstomasable buttons. Hope i was helpful

There is no dpad on the orbweaver which is disappointing. It has an 8 way thumb stick. But I find the nostramo's dpad way better than the useless thumb stick on the orbweaver. I've had the razer nostramo's for over a year and love it. Bought the orbweaver and returned it after a week. It caused my computer to get blue screen of death

It stores multiple profiles each with 5 different keying sets per profile. The D-pad as well as space and left alt "or those keys " are all used by your thumb, but as you already know any key can be any keyboard function or mouse function or macro

You can save it to either the cloud or to your pc. I recommend both. When I had to wipe my pc I easily logged back in to get all my macro's back the way they were in seconds. The d pad can be what ever you want it to be. it goes from 4 to 8 buttons which ever you want it to be.

hello, sorry for the wait. its integrated within the laptop but to tell you the truth, i would prefer another laptop. the motion sensor is very annoying and the only useful thing that i honestly use is the fingerprint sign in and the smart pass for websites. Smart pass is assigning a website to a finger. For instance, my pointer finger pulls up my email webpage, my middle pulls up my amazon webpage and so forth. Also, as we speak i am currently packaging the laptop to send back to hp to fix because after updating windows 8 the whole thing crashed and ive only had it for a few months. Im trying to see if i could return it to amazon and just buy a new one. My theory is, if this is the trouble in gettign this early in the game then i would hate to think of what waits for me down the line. I would suggest you get another laptop period.

Sorry, I didn't see your question until now because it hit my spam folder. The backlit keyboard I have is is n5902, and the ones I have without the back-lighting are n5901. I really wanted to like the backlit one, but the touchpad just doesn't work nearly as well as the rollerball on the older model.Hope that still helps.Thanks!~D

It is possible to disable the multitouch, I did on my LT2030u. I can not tell you exactly how since I don't have the netbook with me but try right clicking the touchpad icon on the lower right of the task bar this should bring up an options menu.

The track pad does have left and right mouse buttons at the bottom of the trackpad where you'd expect them to be. You don't see them but they are there. Also, the battery life is very good. I am used to 3 hours with my old laptop and now that just makes a dent in the battery life with plenty to go. The one item I don't like is the trackpad is very very sensitive. Just barely brush it and it will relocate the cursor. But, I haven't installed the recommended drivers yet so that might be part of the problem.

It takes a bit of getting used to but once ya do it works well. It's like the Razer Naga, it takes awhile to get ur hands used to the buttons but once ya do you won't go back to a normal mouse. I really like my Orbweaver, it took me about a week or so to really get used to it and now I couldn't game without it.

No, it does not. I use mine for World of Warcraft and there is a good amount of normal typing involved communicating with other players. The real advantage is that on the Orbweaver, your hand is constantly supported and you are only moving your fingers. On any conventional keyboard you are hover your hands above the keys as you have to reach a lot more keys to type. That hovering makes for fatigue that does not exist in the keypad. Also, because your hand is stationary on the keypad, your key presses are far more accurate in the heat of battle than doing it on a keyboard.

As of firmware version 1.2, the answer is, at least in some (if not all) cases, no.For example, I just tested this. I set one button to unassigned, and then another next to it to a certain key. If the unassigned button is depressed while I try and press the second button adjacent to it, the button press will not register.

Ubuntu 13.10 touchscreen works sometimes palm detection on the touchpad is useless, I turn off tap to click and it works AWESOMELY!

Technically, yes, it is compatible. Seems you are looking for something more full W8 featured, and, as Nevin pointed out, this device is limited in that respect. I have been able to approximate a sweeping action (touch with the thumb and sweep with the index finger - not terribly reliable in response though). I get to try out the new Touch Mouse T620 next week, so we'll see how it holds up.

If you are referring to the touchpad there is a feature called palm rejection and you adjust the sensitivity. It seems to be pretty smart and that if you slide your palms on the touch pad it minimizes movement of the pointer. My favorite trick though is to use a USB mouse, and then change the setting that disables the touchpad while mouse is active. It allows me to use a regular mouse but if unplug and need to use my laptop to do something really quick i can either use the touch screen or unplug the usb key and then the touchpad is active right away, plug the usb key back in and the touchpad automatically turns off. It even has a nice amber light to remind you the touchpad is inactive.

Not sure if you are referring to the "hold" button or something else. I've had the 4d and 4e and both have the same location for the "hold" button (right side, top button). Last time I spoke to a factory customer support person, the difference between the 4d and 4e is in the firmware. Possibly it's the same issue among all ELV4 models? Also, no way (that I can find) to tell which version (4 or 4d or 4e) you will get until you receive it and look inside.

Yes. There is an option to disable the trackpad. You can do it on the "Device Manager" level (if you want it permanently off) or at the trackpad driver level - then it will be off only when you have an external HID (i.e. mouse) plugged in. However, after a while you get used to it, actually, and it becomes borderline workable.

no, it doesnt. i tested it on ubuntu and mint. it acts like the left button is always being pressed (or like you pressed the pen against the screen and never removed it from there).
2015283
Yes it does. I have used it for several months now, after losing the original. The side 'click button' is not of much use to me however, otherwise this pen works the same as the original. It can be stored away in the pen slot but only in a certain position; the side button has to be at the 10-11 o'clock position, looking at the slot from above, screen facing you, otherwise it can jam inside, I got used to it. Good price compared to original and I wish I ordered 2 to have a spare.

no problem with the touchpad. I'm very happy with Adesso products .... i have a couple of their keyboards.... and they are fantastic

Just normal, as any other trackpad I've used. It is just bigger than what I'm used too. And the left and right clicks are hidden below the trackpad. And the software for it, works perfectly for Windows 8, with all the gestures and stuff.
