Android PocketCloud / Mac OS X 10.6.7 physical and virtual keyboard disabled
Android PocketCloud / Mac OS X 10.6.7 physical and virtual keyboard disabled
hey, using pocket cloud for android on my XOOM v3.1
Macbook Pro with 10.6.7
when connecting to the mac book for the first time, while the mac is in lock screen mode, I AM able to log in using the virtual keyboard,
BUT, when I try any time after that to use the virtual keyboard it will not respond (mouse works just fine and some of the command keys, did not test them all)
Also when I go to the macbook, the physical keyboard is disabled also.
The only recourse is to log off the system to get the physical keyboard to work again. But what is frustrating is if I am away from the office, and come back to a locked screen on the mac book I am unable to use the keyboard to gracefully shut down, which means I have to force a shutdown.
Any help ?

I am seeing the same issue on an HTC EVO ( stock 2.2 ROM ). I can use PocketCloud successfully for a short period of time, but then the virtual keyboard stops responding and when I disconnect and try to go back to my Mac, the keyboard ( with the exception of key sequences ) is dead. I see caplock and numlock lights change, so there is at least the USB portion is still good. The same is try of the actual laptop keyboard. The mouse works fine, but a USB or physical keyboard doesn't. I have tried exiting the PocketCloud app and turning off VNC and that makes no difference. The only thing that I can do to get the keyboard back is to log off or shutdown.
PocketCloud is a very cool application, and I am on the verge of purchasing the 'Pro' version, however until I can resolve this issue with my Mac keyboard locking up I can't justify it.
