Delete button deletes forward instead of backward

All of a sudden my delete button deletes forward instead of backward on my bluetooth keyboard that I'm using with my G% tower. Any ideas how to get it back?

Curious, perhaps Spark could help with the problem...

How do you change direction of the delete button from "delete backward" to "delete forward"?

how do you change direction of the delete button from "delete backward" to "delete forward"?

Hold the function (fn) key down while clicking delete.

My BT keyboard delete button now forward deletes rather than backspacing like it used to do. This happened after I got my iMac back from the hard drive replacement program. Any ideas how to return the keyboard to the default backspace?

The good news after my hard drive was replaced during Apple's Seagate replacement program -- all my data and settings reinstalled seamlessly through Time Machine and my external hard drive. Bad news? My BT keyboard will now only forward delete when I hit the delete key rather than backward delete. I find this so ironic since I hated this feature when I switched from PC to Mac, but now I'm totally used to it. I tried resetting the default under system preferences, but it didn't help. Otherwise, keyboard works perfectly. This is so strange. Anyone have any suggestions? Oh -- and now I see my arrows don't work either.

How to forward delete I can only backwards delete

how to forward delete I can only backwards delete. Is there a way using the keyboard to delete in the forward direction. The delete key seems to only delete backwards

I'm guessing you mean portions of the thread? Tap on the message you want to delete or foward. Tap "More" on the pop up menu that appears. Select any messages you want to forward or delete. Tap either the trash can in the lower left or the forward arrow in the lower right.

Using camera accessory, I have imported photos to my iPad 3rd generation. By mistake I have imported multiple copies of same photos. Now if I want to delete additional copies I can't. It gives me only one option "Delete everywhere" instead of delete 1copy

Using camera accessory, I have imported photos to my iPad 3rd generation. By mistake I have imported multiple copies of same photos. Now if I want to delete additional copies I can't. It gives me only one option "Delete everywhere" instead of delete one by one, so that I can keep one copy of that photo.
Is there a way to delete additional copies of a photo and keeping only one?

How do I delete forwards, ie without using the backspace key ?

When want to change a letter or some text I always have to position the cursor after the entire word and use the backspace key to delete the whole word, even if I just want to delete, for example, the first letter. Is there a key that deletes forwards ?
This applies to my iPad, MacBook Air and iPhone.

I'd like to sort of hiighjack this thread. I moved from an iPad Mini to an iPad Air bcause I wanted to add a keyboard case that would replace some of the frustration I've experienced trying to type on the Mini's display. So with the AIR I purchased a Belkin Ultimate keyboard and I'm very peased with it. My "principal" computer is a desktop PC and I was quite startled to find there are no cursors, other than by finger, in the iPad world; however, I'm getting used to that. Re the posting here, that seems to be good advice re the delete function. My question: looking prettyy closely at my Belkn keyboard, where is the "delete" key?

How do I delete emails instead if archiving them

How do I delete emails instead of archiving them?

go to settings/mail contacts etc tap on your email account name then make sure archive messages is off

Cannot select emails to delete, forward, move, etc.

I can no longer select emails for deletion, forwarding or moving to another folder by either swiping left or selecting edit. Once I swipe, the messages deselects on its own. If I hit edit and start selecting emails they quickly deselect. The only way I can manage messages is by selecting each individual email. Once this problem started, my battery began draining very quickly - dead within 4 hours.

Okay, the next steps in basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide are reboot and restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

Delete Forward keyboard shortcut?

I need to find a way to "delete forward" in Mail.app with the built-in keyboard on my PowerBook. (NOT on an external keyboard, that has a dedicated key for it)
Most apps (BBEdit) do this by clicking SHIFT-DELETE.
Any ideas?
MacBook Pro (soon!) Mac OS X (10.4.5)

PowerPage.org, Welcome to the discussion area!
On my iBook, you press the FN key and the DELETE key.

In latest version of MF there`s missing button, which was in previous version: between buttons back/forward and the typing bar there used to be little flash, which showed few last pages I have just browsed. How can I restore it?

If you mean the drop marker then you can still get the History of the Back and Forward buttons if any by either Left-Click and hold for a second or by Right-Clicking them.
If you still want the drop mark there also then there is this Extension at https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/backforward-dropmarker/
Also the abbreviation for Firefox is '''Fx'''

What are the parameters "page-forward" and "page-backward" used for?

In the LIMITS section of the Netscape Calendar Server configuration
documentation, there are two parameters called "page-forward" and
"page-backward." The default setting for these parameters is FALSE. However,
it is unclear what these parameters are used for.
<P>
With previous versions of Calendar Server, you could scroll one page forward
or one page backward through the user search screens. However, with the
implementation of LDAP in later versions, the options have been disabled in
the client.
<P>
Although the page-forward and page-backward parameters are documented in the
Administrator guides for Calendar Server versions 3.5 and 4.0, the guides
state that the default value of FALSE for both parameters cannot be
changed. In actuality, the parameters can be changed. However, the reason
that users should not change these parameters is that versions 3.5 and 4.0
do not support the page-forward and page-backward capabilities. So to avoid
errors, please do not change these parameters from the default value of FALSE.

if AdobeRGB is the more professional working space, then why not use that profile?
on the web (and in unmanaged and broken work flows) sRGB is the safest profile (source space)
just open your tagged Adobe RGB and tagged ProPhoto RGB document (use the embedded profile in each document)
and go to View> Proof Setup: Monitor RGB (notice the loss in saturation? that's how most of the people on the Internet will be viewing your color, assuming you have a standard-gamut monitor like most people)
always CONVERT to sRGB for the World Wide Web
i didn't read your link
anyone who recommends "disable color management in Photoshop" -- set Working RGB to "Monitor RGB" -- AND MOST UNBELIEVABLY -- "Don't color manage this document" (ignore embedded profiles) ------ is pretty mixed up (in my opinion)
i will recommend reading JEFF SCHEWE and BRUCE FRASER for professional color management information

When I have finished working on an image in Photoshop and I hit the save button it goes instead to the "save as" screen. This never happened in previous Photoshop versions. When I get to Lightroom, I have a grey screen the says "File could not be found."

When I have finished working on an image in Photoshop and I hit the "save" button, it goes instead to the "save as" screen. This never happened in previous Photoshop versions. When I get to Lightroom, I have a grey screen the says "File could not be found." I then have to go to "locate" to get the image. When I select the correct image, I get a message that it is not the same file name but I am eventually able to access the image. Needless to say this is having a negative impact on workflow!

The problem with write permissions for the OneDrive folder only shows up in Lightroom 6's export dialogue, that's why it's to irritating. Lightroom 5.7.1 is not having that problem nor does the file explorer. The problem also exists on both of my machines. I will try to check for other problems with the OneDrive troubleshooter though: Running the OneDrive troubleshooter - Windows Help
