Urxvt without focus makes keyboard acts strange

When I'm using urxvt and the mouse isn't inside the urxvt windows I just can't type accents (~^), all the other characters are ok. I'm using Awesome WM.
Here's my .Xdefaults:

Likely not. You can always try other tabbing utilities, like screen (my favorite) or tmux.

  • Why is my virtual keyboard acting strangely?

    My newest issue is that the virtual keyboard now pops up with nearly all "finger motions " that scrolls the display.  THIS is really irritating, and time consuming!  Previousl, the keyboard when you tapped into a text box.

    I think that stedman's suggestions will probably work for you, but if it doesn't, the next thing that I would try is to reset all settings. No data is lost with this either, but all of the device settings have to be entered again.

  • Keyboard acting strange in Safari since 10.8.2

    When I am in Safari, I have noticed that in a lot of text boxes when I am typing, a lot of the time, after hitting space the cursor will go behind the word I have juse typed.
    So it would show up like this 'This is test.a' Where it should be 'This is a test.'
    It is happening all the time and I have only noticed it since 10.8.2. Is there anything I can try?
    Thank you.

  • Help! My keyboard is acting strange : (

    Help! My keyboard is acting strange. I just moved and when I started to type in my Mac Book Pro after not using it for a few weeks, every time I typed certain letters, two other letters in the same column appear (eg: when I type c, edc appear or frv when I type r). Numbers seems to work well though. Any ideas?

    When you moved did you pack up your mac and did it have anything pressing on the lid and keyboard area?
    Try a SMC reset and if that doesn't fix it you need to go to apple and probably have the keyboard replaced.

  • DW acting strange - does not go to code view

    My Dreamweaver CS3 has started acting strangely since I
    upgraded to a new version of CS3 studio.
    I have been working with CS3 for a while now without needing
    too much of an adjustment from DW8.
    However, I just bought a new computer so I had to reinstall
    all my software.
    On the new box, DW is acting mighty strange:
    1) When I am in Layout view and click on an element to go to
    the corresponding line of code for the element it no longer goes to
    the line. However, it does when I r-click on it. It is a bit
    annoying since it also opens the contextual menu at the same time.
    2) When I am in code view (which is 99% of the time) and I
    click on an element, it no longer shows me the corresponding CSS
    rule in the CSS pane. Again, if I r-click sometiomes it works, but
    this one is not reliable either way. Sometimes it works if I double
    click, but most of the time it doesn't.
    3) The comment icon on the code toolbar is often grayed out.
    No reason I can see and just as often it wil work on the same line
    of code where it didn't work a minute before.
    I combed the preferences line by line without success.
    On my old computer I never had any issues like this. I find
    it very strange and it is crimping my workflow considerably. Is
    anyone familiar with theis behavior or how to fix it?

    The times I have seen others post things like this, it's been
    due to a bad
    installation - reinstalling fixes it.

  • Safari's Tabs Acting Strange After 10.6.4 Update

    Hi guys,
    After the 10.6.4 update Safari's tabs have been acting strangely. Say I have Apple.com open in one tab and I hit Apple-T to open a new tab. It then changes that tab (which Apple.com was loaded on) to the Top Sites, keeps the focus on this tab, then opens a blank tab right next to it. I effectively lose the page I was using and a blank one appears. Any ideas as to how to fix this?
    Thanks for the help!

    HI,
    Go here for trouble shooting 3rd party plugins or input managers which might be causing the problem. Safari: Add-ons may cause Safari to unexpectedly quit or have performance issues
    From the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons and click Reset. Relaunch Safari. If you still having problems...
    Go to the Safari Menu Bar, click Safari/Preferences. Make note of all the preferences under each tab. Quit Safari. Now go to ~/Library/Preferences and move this file com.apple.safari.plist to the Desktop.
    Relaunch Safari and see if that makes a difference. If not, move the .plist file back to the Preferences folder. If Safari functions as it should, move that .plist file to the Trash.
    And if you didn't repair disk permissions after you updated Safari, it's a good idea to do that.
    Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • Changing layout when urxvt gains focus

    Hello.
    I'm using openbox, and share 2 keyboard layouts, using 10-keymap.fdi file.
    Is there anyway to make urxvt using one of the layouts as default?
    (for example: if I'm using the other layout in firefox, and then my urxvt gains focus, the layout will change automaticly)
    Sorry for my English
    Thanks.

    this will affect all buttons
    UIManager.put("Button.focus", new javax.swing.plaf.ColorUIResource(Color.YELLOW));

  • Mouse acting strange

    If I close the project and open a new one from the File menu than very often my Apple Mighty mouse doesn't act as it supposed to in Logic any more. The "wheel" ( ball ) does not move Logic window up-down and left-right. To get this feature back I always have to restart Logic. This happens also when Logic is running for a while and then I open a project by clicking on icon of a project...
    Finally in Arrange window sometimes track buttons like Mute, Solo (region mute and solo), Record ready are not "clickable". For exanple: I can not make track Record ready with the button visible on each track- have to view channel strip of that track and click on Record button there (under the fader). So I have to restart Logic again... Is that "normal"?

    Thanks for reply. No. I did not add any new device. But I also think that it really is not mighty mouse problem-I checked that at the same time it is not working in Logic it works in other apps like Safari, Preview etc without problem.
    My G5 is acting strange for last 10 days. That's it. I have also big problem with opening Logic-it is very often (90% times) quitting before opening, after 3-5 seconds I doule-click to open a project or Logic app... (I made a separate Topic about it)

  • IPhone 3GS Frrezing, Deleting stuff, acting strange

    My 3GS has been acting strange the past week or two.  It is doing so many strange things that I'll just bullet and list them....
    It freezes for 5-10 seconds, randomly.  Can't swipe to a new screen, press and buttons or anything.  Then returns to normal.
    Push an App button and it's like I held in the button to delete or move icons.....
    Sometimes pushing an App button doesn't load the App.  Takes a few times to get it to open.
    When typing a text or email, it adds periods in randomly.  If I hit the delete button, it will sometimes just delete the text I just wrote. 
    There's a tiny gap at the top between the clock, battery, etc.... some black space.  Sometimes, the upper "bar" moves to the very top of the screen leaving no black space.  Not sure if I explained that too well.
    I replaced the battery a few months ago because it would just shut off when it reached 50-60%.  Others have had the same problem.  Replacement went really smooth and it worked fine for at least a month or so.... so I doubt that's the culprit.
    I have turned it off and on a few times.  Synced with iTunes a few times and no luck.  I have not restored yet.  Don't really know what Restore does but I am going to read up on it.
    Any other ideas or is anyone having similar issues?  I search and found nothing....
    Thanks!

    My 3Gs is freezing on certain contacts (growing number and I believe they're all ATT customers.
    To make matters worse...my daughter is a text addict... And most of the other texters just won't pay attention to my pleas that they calmer e.mail me, until the daughter's Saturday Wedding is over... So I can make an appt. At an Apple retailer to have a "genius" help me with this!!!! Everyone coming in for the rehearsal and Wedding is testing me! And I cannot open their message,  much less reply via this form of messaging!
    I'm so unable to mess with this right now- 
    I called ATT tech support and we tried a couple of possible options to fix this and wound up with something that was  SO convoluted involving my PowerBook ( which was at home where I was NOT!) and a week later, here am, without reliable testing!  Did you get any results in your problem?!?

  • Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard acting as if keys are pressed

    I've had an Apple Aluminum Bluetooth keyboard for over two years, and last week (after a fresh install of OS X Lion on my late 2009 Mac Mini) all of a sudden the Mac is acting as if multiple keys are pressed when nothing is touching the keyboard. I have updated all software, replaced the batteries, deleted and re-paired the keyboard (which was a massive struggle as it acted as if keys were depressed even during the pairing process). Nothing has ever been spilled on the keyboard. The only way to make the sound of the "phantom depressed key" go away and regain full control of the computer, is to remove the batteries from the keyboard.
    Strangely, the problem seemed to have been resolved somehow after I placed the "Show character viewer" icon in the main menu (ie. where there is usually a US/other nationality flag). After doing so, all of a sudden the problem disappeared.
    Now, exactly a week later, the problem has reappeared.
    Can anyone explain why a keyboard would act this way? Has anyone had a similar problem? Is there a fix?
    I'm a longtime reader of theese support discussion boards, but this is the first time I've posted. Let me know if there's information that I can provide that would help us solve this issue.
    Cheers.

    I have similar issue: both left and right shift keys time to time being pressed, it disappears after a while...but once I couldn't log in as the shift option puts caps lock on....really annoying.
    The only reason in my case is the keyboard cleaning that I have done recently...
    There is no quick fix for this I am afraid.
    Options:
    1.Apple replaces the keyboard you pay around £200 I think....
    2. Buy new keyboard on Ebay and replace it yourself £40....

  • Safari is acting strangely on several counts

    For the last several days, Safari is acting strangely on several counts. I haven't downloaded any updates or plugins recently, and I am not aware of any Safari viruses on Mac OS X, so I'm totally lost here. Please help!
    1. Periodically, Safari will stop loading a page completely. So it will start and then the url bar will be partially blue and the circle will keep circling but nothing will happen. Once it does this on one tab in that window, it will start doing it on all new tabs opened up in that window, but any original tab there might still go through. If I close the window and reopen another window, all sites on all tabs will go right through. I tried disabling DNS prefetching, and that helps Safari behave for a few minutes, then it goes back to such strange behavior. I tested using my wireless and using a different network, and it happens on both, so it's not my router. Sometimes, opening a new window doesn't help. So I shut down Safari and restart. Sometimes that doesn't help either, so I end up having to reset Safari. Obviously, having to reset Safari multiple times a day is neither productive nor ideal.
    2. When it does that url thing, it also seems to become incapable of completing from history or bookmarks. So for example, if I open a tab and type a website name, it won't complete it, even though I have that bookmarked. Generally when that happens on the first tab of a window, I can pull up the site from bookmarks and it will load immediately. But the next tab I open in that window, will do the webpage not loading business I described in #1 above.
    3. A short while ago, i tried resizing a window and it did the strangest thing where it would expand the window space, but just give me a "gray area" rather than expanding the whole web page. I closed the window, opened a new one and resizing worked fine again.
    4. A short while ago, another strange happening: everytime I opened up a new tab in the window and loaded a site, it would merge that tab with my old tab and delete the first tab, so at any given time, it was just a single tab window. I closed the window and reopened, and voila normal tab behavior again.
    Strangely, if I have two windows open - as I often do - only one window will be affected by such strange behavior. The other one will function normally. But such odd behavior is not limited to instances when I have two windows open. It's also happening when there's one window open. For reasons I do not understand, it seems something in the processes of a window gets corrupted after a little while on Safari and that window starts acting strangely.
    Odd and irritating and difficult. I'd greatly appreciate your help!
    I'm using Safari 5.0.6 on OS X 10.5.8... thanks!

    I don't see anything in your post regarding the Safari cache. BTW, a "reset" does not empty the cache.
    From your Safari menu bar click Safari / Empty Cache. Restart your Mac, try Safari.
    If that didn't help, quit Safari if it's open.
    Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari
    Move the Cache.db (or ApplicationCache.db) file from the com.apple.Safari folder to the Trash.
    Try Safari.
    If nothing above helped, make sure there's enough free space on the startup disk.    Right or control click the MacintoshHD icon. Click Get Info. In the Get Info window you will see Capacity and Available. Make sure you have a minimum of 15% free disk space.
    If nothing above has helped, try Safari in another user account. If you see the same issues there, log back into your admin account.
    Launch Disk Utility. Select the startup disk in the panel on the left then select the First Aid tab.
    Click:   Verify Disk  (not Verify Disk Permissions)
    If the disk needs repairing follow the instructions for Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks.

  • IPad mini acting strange. Apps open and close randomly. Any ideas?

    My iPad mini acts strange. Apps will randomly open and close and I have no control over it. I have reset it to factory and started all over but it is still doing it. Any ideas on what I should do?

    If the unit has NEVER been jailbroke, first try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...  Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  It could take well over an hour!  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod.  As before, say "yes."  Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time.  If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device.  Corrective action is simple -  choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
    If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.  You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again.  Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

  • My macbook pro started acting strange after a safari reset. the mouse no longer: animates the dock, activates hot corners or selects pages from the 'top sites' page.

    my macbook pro started acting strange after a safari reset.

    pRam restart caused airport to quit and say there is no airport card, and wouldn't respond untill another reboot.

    i have treated this book with care, yet run logic pro studio to the limit of this book's abilities.
    what shoud i do?

    You don't say which year you have, however...
    ...there are known problems with the mid-2010 models (see http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4088?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US) as well as early and late 15" 2011 models (see https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4766577?tstart=0).
    Apple has taken ownership of the problems with the 2010 model but, unfortunately, the free logic board replacement for that model has probably long expired for you - three years after date of purchase.
    One the 2011 models Apple has admitted no defect. You'll just have to skim the articles to get an overview of the problems that people are having (usually showing up as screen glitches at first and then going downhill from there).
    Good luck,

  • Indesign CS6 acting strange at times

    I am not loving Indesign CS6. Not because of it's functionality but because it acts strangely. When I quit it, sometimes it takes forever to quit and you start wondering if it is going to, sometimes it says it's closed but the tabbed windows still remain in view only grayed out with the beachball spinning. Eventually it goes away but it is disturbing. anyone know why?
    Another thing is that when I change a font size, it will look like it changed but still have the after image of the previous size. Irritating.
    One more, and I've had this problem for all of the last versions since I think cs4. When I try to replace a pdf with a current version, (unless I have restarted my computer since the last time I created it,) it tells me that I don't haver permisson or that file may be in use. I end up going to the pdf and trashing it physically. Not very efficient.
    I know there are 3 issues but I've only had it for a couple of months at best.
    The first issue is the most disturbing.
    Mountain Lion 10.8.2, 8 gb memory, processor 3.06 ghz intel

    Again, please remove your auto-signature when replying by email.
    Let's try a couple of diagnostic experiments, please.
    First, create a new user account onthe mac and log in with that and tell us if there is a change in behavior in ID.
    Second, try starting in with extensions disabled by holding down the Shift key while booting the Mac. Does that make a difference?
    Do you run any sort of utilities -- anti-virus, Mac Keeper, etc.?

  • Dropdownmenu in infowindow of googlemaps act strange and doesn't work

    The problem occurs only in FF, not in IE or Chrome.
    Go to this page:<br />
    http://www.meerijden.nu/ritinvoerenmaps.php?codet=en
    I tested it and I fill in a city in rideshare from and press enter and the icon of this city appears in the map, then I fill in a city in rideshare to and press enter and the icon of this city appears in the map as well. Then I click on one of the icons in the map and I can fill in a ride. Only the visible dropdown menu's act strange and choosing has no effect. That is the problem!?
    Any suggestions?

    Which drop down menu doesn't work?
    Don't you get a pop-up window if you click the start or end flag on the map?
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
