I'm hitting the bug described here on my "work asigned" Dell laptop

In red hat Bug 1145954 is looks like a patch may be available. Anyone know if this is in an upcoming arch kernel ?

What? There are 5 bullet points of items there that are listed as not working. None of them are related to the keyboard. There is a keyboard issue in the "troubleshooting" section, but it also provides the solution.
You need to tell us what your problem is if you want help. If you want to know the status of a patch, you need to link to the patch and/or the mailinglist where it is discussed: we have no crystal ball to know what patch you are referring to.
EDIT: I see the anchor of the url you posted didn't get me right to the item, but is for the keyboard issue in the troubleshooting section. Have you tried the solution provided? Did it not work?

Please fix international keyboard issues (Win)

Hello
This was already reported before 1.1 (and before Br 2, and before Elements 3 :-)).
It's impossible to type "a/A with ogonek" (U+0104, U+0105) using standard windows keyboard "Polish (Programmers)" since it's using right Alt Gr + letter combination and Lightroom is incorrectly treating Alt Gr as Alt + Ctrl. Please fix this issue. Would be good idea also to add this to Adobe's code of practice or something similar, so I wouldn't have to report this every time you guys come up with new software.
Thank You

Trying out ...
is this writen somewhere and i missed it ?
It seems to solve all of my keyboard & mouse issues.
Only is the cursor quite bizarre ; when i go left with the [left arrow],the cursor shows in every position it goes (dunno if one can visualize this!), and doesn't blink anymore. Anyway that's just a detail that I'l cope with later.
Thanks a lot Cerebral

Any fix for wifi issues with ios8?

Just submitting another questions asking for help with IOS8 wifi issues. Nobody from Apple has commented or acknowledged any issues with wifi, so we, the users, are left to fend for ourselves.
My specific issue is that 5GHz Wireless N seems to have incredibly short range, and 2.4GHZ Wireless N cuts out after about 3 seconds of use. I have tried all of the fixes described in every post I can find. I've deleted network settings, I've completely wiped the phone and started from scratch, I've done everything possible.
Now that wifi doesn't work with IOS8 I can no longer use my iPhone 5 with AirPlay our any of my other devices in my home. The fact that Apple has refused to say anything about the problem, and the fact that they are blocking users from rolling back shows a level of arrogance that's absolutely amazing. Thankfully this is all happening before I bought an iPhone6, which I'm now seriously considering avoiding if this experience is any indication of Apple's commitment to quality.
Are there any other tricks out there to get 2.4Ghz working? I know that we, the poor users of Apple products, are on our own, so I'm hoping that someone can help.

I got iPhone 6 IOS8 [ not updated ] for a few months now worked fine until now WiFi not working in my home tried reset , turning off phone , nothing worked , Got it to work by unplugging the router WiFi Box unit for a few seconds ! works like a charm now , Super fast

Any fix for printing issue on Mac?

Hi,
I've seen several posts on this and other boards, many suggested fixes but none that work. What are we supposed to do if we have Captivate 8 for Mac (Yosemite) and an Office 365 account and Word isn't physically installed on the computer???
I'm thinking Adobe needs to rethink how printing is handled. Any suggestions for resolution is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You are asking the wrong people, if you need to know about Acrobat, you need to talk to Adobe. Adobe Acrobat Pro X for Mac is US$449.00;

Solaris 8 & Keyboard Problem on DELL Inspiron Laptop

Hi all,
Trying to install Solaris 8 on Dell Inspiron 4000 laptop, but the keyboard gets stuck at the stage where I need to select the language. No response to keyboard and the machine just hangs. The keyboard works initially, I used the F2 key to continue to the next screen. Has anyone seen this before? Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks

I'm experiencing this exact problem on my Dell Inspiron 4000 as well. When I trying to select the Language stage of the installation, my laptop responds with garble text, and then the laptop locks up. Please let me know if you have a resolution.

I am using Quicken 2007 (16.1.4) and had no problems before upgrading to OS 10.10 Yosemite. When attempting to download security updates from my financial institutions (UBS and Fidelity), I get the following error: Quicken could not connect to the server. Please try again later. [OL-290] I understand this is because of a mismatch between SSL certificates at the financial institutions and Apple's SSL certificate included with OS 10.10 Yosemite. Any fixes to this issue?

If you bought the MBP new 3 weeks ago, it should have come with Mountain Lion already installed. Did you update your MBP to the newly released 10.8.4 update? If not, what OS were you running before the upgrade, and what version of Mountain Lion do you have now?

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

Dell inspiron 5030 laptop keyboard issue ...HELP PLEASE

the last two rows on mi keyboard aren't working
the z,x,c,v,b,n,m,comma,period,etc..
&the spacebar n also the enter button..
i didnt get it wet or anything so i have no clue it jus stopped
any suggestions???

Here is the instructions for removing the keyboard:
http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/insm5030/en/sm/keyboard.htm
I would suggest removing and cleaning it gently. If that does not work, you may need to replace the keyboard. I was not able to find a replacement keyboard, unfortunately, or I'd post it. Further research is needed, or bring to Geek Squad for repair.

Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select

Does the dialog show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section?
In the General section, is the box labeled Locked checked?
What is the Modified date?

Is Adobe aware of these issues and will there be any fixes?

Is Adobe aware of these issues and will there be any fixes?

What John said ... and additionally, though these are user-to-user forums, some of their staffers do pop in here (on their own time, we so appreciate it when they do!) and so between the bug/wish-form requests that John linked to, staffers do monitor what goes onto the boards here. And they do fix a ton of things on a constant basis. Every problem that every individual user has? No.
But with the incredibly complicated software they've created to give us the inter-operability betwixt an ingestion program (Prelude), an NLE (PrPro), a grading program (Speedgrade), an effects program (AeFx), an audio-effects program (Audition), and an out-put rendering program (AME) ... there are unfortunately times when bits & pieces of software between the OS, programs & plugins, video cards & drivers, and add-on or separate modification programs (such as Plural Eyes for instance) can conflict with each other. Some problems have been incredibly difficult for their staffers to duplicate ... and often, until they can duplicate a particular set of complex circumstances they can't see exactly what went wrong in that case ... and understand why it happens ONLY with that specific set of 500 possible variables and no others.
Some of the re-current problems on here are shared by quite a number of people ... and many of the problems only occur in very rare circumstances ... it takes precisely the right mix of loaded programs, footage, working steps, and hardware for that problem to exist. While that situation is of course incredibly annoying and oft infuriating to those few that have that problem ... by it's very nature, not many do have that problem. So you will hear of it on the boards here in far greater numbers than it occurs as a percentage of the user base.
And that btw is a given on a user complaint forum, which for most people is what this place is. Past some of us who use it for a learning "facility" not many jump on here unless they've got a problem or complaint. It most people are happy &/simply functioning, they don't post here.

Any fix for the kernel panic issue?

So far, i've had 12 kernel panics. Usually it only happens when I start iTunes or software update. I read in a developer forum it was because of the NVIDIA Graphics card. So, are there any fixes for the kernel panics with Lion?

There is no bluetooth connectivity issue after the recent OS update. There may be a problem with your phone, which may or may not be related to the update. A "common problem" looks like this in the forums:
I haven't seen any threads on BlueTooth with over 1.4 million views and over 12,000 replies, or even any vaguely close. For any problem that someone has there is bound to be someone else amoung 150 million users who have it. That doesn't make it a "common problem."
If you tell us what the problem is specifically and what you have done so far to try to resolve it someone can probably help you.

Any fix for the PC based network printer communication issue with Mavericks?

Any fix for the PC based network printer communication issue with Mavericks?

I just signed up for FIOS and am not experiencing your problem (had enough other ones instead).
Go to mail preferences ~ click on a mail account ~ click on the advanced tab. The only settings that worked for me were: port 110 SSL OFF, authentication: Authenticated POP (APOP). If I remember correctly when I first set this up another window opened and I typed in my password and never had to do that again.
Hope this helps.

Wifi connectivity issues iPad 2.. Any fixes yet?

I have issues keeping a connection to my home network. No, I don't have an airport router (just in case that comes up). My iPad connects, but loses signal strength, even though I'm only a few feet away from the router, and sometimes just disconnects altogether. I'm wondering if anyone knows of a fix yet. I noticed there are quite a few users having similar troubles, but haven't seen anyone actually ask or receive concrete feedback regarding a fix.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Sounds like it could be a hardware problem.
Try a restart or reset to see if that helps. If not, contact Apple Support.
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
No data will be lost.
