Cant type in words

I was typing a document in words and I checked thesaurus and then thought my original word is correct so I closed thesaurus. Now while closing I may have hit something which I cant remember but now I cannot type anything in words. I checkd that the font color is visible (not white etc.) and I tried typing something in other microsoft products like ppt works fine. but I just cant type anything in words. any idea what went wrong? I am using Yosemite and recently upgraded. anything missing here???
thank you for your help

Hey—Since upgrading, I'm having keyboard and mouse issues where it seemingly takes my Mac Mini upwards of 2 minutes after wake up before my mouse or keyboard will work...which is confusing since tapping my magic mouse or space bar on the wireless keyboard wakes up my Mac Mini. It would seem elementary that my Mac Mini has connectivity to my mouse and keyboard if tapping either wakes up my Mac Mini from sleep mode. In addition to that inconvenience, when I do start typing, it's like someone has their thumb on the space bar between words. I type the first word no problem. But as soon as I hit the space bar, it creates endless spaces until I type another character. I am also having a similar problem with my volume control on the keyboard. If I hit the volume up key, it zooms to full volume instead of the normal incremental increase in volume for each tap of the volume key. Same thing happens when I hit the key to turn down the sound. I don't have any data or third party applications since I only use my Mac Mini as a web streaming device for watching HD streaming content on my flatscreen tv. Even that is problematic since Safari crashes at least several times an evening while trying to stream content.
As far as your problem goes...if you are using a wireless keyboard, you might try putting new batteries in. Even if your computer is not telling you the battery power is low, I have found that low battery power can effect the functionality of both wireless mouse and keyboards. Also if you haven't tried it, rebooting can fix most OS  X idiosyncrasies. Hope you have success with your issue, invisible25.

  • I cant type any letters on pages?!?!?

    can anybody help me? i cant type any letters on pages and cant change the style like the color...?!?

    Hi steniel,
    If you want to write text without first inserting a container for the text, then open a blank template from the Word processing section of the Template Chooser.
    Word processing documents have a text layer, into which you can enter text directly.
    Page Layout documents do NOT contain a text layer. A blank Page Layout document is a blank canvas on which "objects" may be placed.
    "Text" is NOT an "object." "Text" requires a container.
    The container may be a Text box, a Shape, a Table—all of which are "objects"—or a Chart (which is a collection of "objects" as well as being an "object" itself).
    Regards,
    Barry

  • I want to stop it going to OpenDNS when I type a word in the url area. I want it to go to google.

    I want to stop it going to OpenDNS when I type a word in the url area. I want it to go to Google.
    I have changed the keyword.URL to http://www.google.com.my/search?q=
    But this only works for terms with a space in it. For example:
    Typing: "word1 word2" will go to Google
    Typing: "word" Goes to OpenDNS
    Furthermore... If I type in "eBay" it will take me to eBay.com (as I would expect) but if I type in another site like "tip20" it goes to OpenDNS.
    How do I fix this once and for all.

    Use a keyword search via the location bar.<br />
    You can add a keyword to a search engine if you click the search engine icon on the search bar and open Manage Search Engines. Select a search engine and click the "Edit Keyword" button. You can use a one letter keyword like g for Google.<br />
    Then you can type <b>g word</b> or <b>g word1 word2</b> in the location bar to do a search.

  • I have everything set for Arabic fonts and the keyboard as well. When I type in WORD or EXCEL I just get individual Arabic letters, but they never connect, they should be for example like this   الس    but they always appear like that ا ل س

    I have everything set for Arabic fonts and the keyboard as well. When I type in WORD or EXCEL I just get individual Arabic letters, but they never connect, they should be for example like this   الس    but they always appear like that ا ل س

    MS Word for Mac has never supported Arabic.  You have to use other apps.  Mellel is best, but Pages 5, TextEdit, Nisus Writer, or Open/LibreOffice should work OK.
    Sometimes you can make Word for Mac do connected Arabic if you are editing a document created with Windows Word.

    Obviously you'd need an app that allows you to create and edit Word documents.
    You have searched the App Store, haven't you:?

  • Whenever i open Firefox i cant type anything because the "find" bar at the bottom alwayse pops up. How can i remove that or fix this issue?

    So like I said, Everytime I open firefox as soon as I open a tab the "find" bar automatically pops up and I cant type. It wont let me close it at all. Ive searched everywhere to see if I can disable it from automatically coming up but came up empty. Ive reset everything back to is "original" settings but that didn't work either.

    Have you had this problem for some time or did it just start recently?
    This occurs with an empty new tab (Ctrl+t) or with any new tab (e.g., including clicking a link)?
    Is the bar labeled Find or Quick Find?
    Find: This bar can be opened using Ctrl+f, but obviously you are not typing Ctrl+f.
    Quick Find: The shortcut to open this bar is a / character. Firefox also has an option to open the Quick Find bar as soon as you type ''any'' character. (See: [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/advanced-settings-browsing-network-updates-encryption#w_accessibility Accessibility options]) But this is turned off by default, and it doesn't sound as though you are typing a character when this happens.
    Hmmm... by default, if the cursor is in either bar, it can be closed by pressing the Esc key. But I suppose that isn't working either (or it reopens very quickly).
    If you view the Add-ons page, do you have any extensions?

  • When i type any word in address bar, it is search by "speedbit", How i can to change it into google searching ?

    when i type any word in address bar, it is search by "speedbit", How i can to change it into google searching ?

    When you ''reset'' keyword.url, you blank the entry. Firefox doesn't know what to do with the keyword you've typed in, so it adds www. to the front, and tacks .com to the end and takes you www.test.com.
    You need a new search engine entry. '''Try making keyword.url = http://www.google.com/#q='''
    Every once in a while a rogue search engine wrecks my browser, and I end up scrambling for this very answer. I hope the devs will create an easier fix for future versions.

  • HT3529 I have an iPhone 4 and recently as I type a word in texting the phone repeats the word.  It doesnt do it allthe time but it continues to happen.  Why?

    When I type a word while texting, my phone says the word.  This has just happened recently but continues.  What did I do to make it do this?

    Are you getting any kind of error message at all regarding the failure to connect, or is it just not seeing it as there?
    Any chance your ex managed to actually damage the phone?

  • Cant print from Word/Excel/Outlook to Onenote (Office 2010)

    Have a weird problem. The problem started quite resently....for a lot of users in our domain!
    As the title says I cant print from word/outlook/... to onenote.....the only thing i can print from is IE10 to onenote (all other printers work ofc pdf/physical and so on). But if someone has IE8 I doesn't work for them either...
    I have the printer under "printers and fax" so its not "gone"....I have tried to repair Office 2010+reboot with no success. AND i have the XPS document Writer present/working aswell.
    When i try to print i can see the "printing-icon" in the lower wright corner, so something is obviously "happening"....but if i put my marker there it only says "0 printing jobs for %username%"....and yes i'm currently sitting
    in a domain, i'm admin at my computer to(Windows 7 Enterprise).
    I'v tried almost everything i could find i terms of repairing and checking the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MenuExt\Ski&cka till OneNote registry key (but that's for IE...and that's working correctly).
    Now here's the fun part....if i run winword.exe as administrator (rightclick+Run as administrator) it works!
    But that's not a solid workaround....
    Anyone knows how to fix this?  And as i'v explained...tried to repair several times....restarted services....check so XPS function is enabled and so on and so on...
    //Regards Andreas

    Hi,
    According to your description, I selected the situations which your said above.
    1. A lot of Domain account could print from is IE10 to Onenote, but IE 8 not.
    2.When Domain account print to Onenote, but it hanged.
    3. Word works well if runned as administrator.
    From above, I think the printer setting was Ok, beacuse you could print something by using Onenote to physical printer.
    As far as I know, OneNote stores a raster and a vector format for the printout images. It will first load the raster image (quicker to load) then quickly switch to vector image (hi res/sharper). The image you see for a split second is the raster
    image and then vector format fails to render. I believe you did not lose any data, just that it fails to render due to a configuration issue.
    OneNote uses .NET to render the vector format and I have seen cases where the installed .NET version or not installed .NET updates would be a problem. I recommend you first make sure you have
    Win7 SP1 and Office and .NET updates that show up in Windows Update are all installed and retry after that.
    And then,please check the link:http://www.onenote-tips.com/printfails.html, it may be help for you.
    If the issue exists, Please use process monitor to selcet the log when the issue occurs.
