English speaking, literate, touch type, keyboard, desktop (not a tablet), not a touch screen...

I speak English. I read left to right, top to bottom. I touch type on a keyboard. I do not have nor do I want a touch screen. I use the mouse only when I find it to be an advantage. My primary input method is keyboard. I feel many programers when programming an interface have over looked this in a rush to accommodate tablet users.
I'm new to Windows 7 and generally loving in it. One problem crops up from time to time. In FireFox 34.0.5 in particular when I restore the, File, Edit, View, History, etc. menu bare I loose the FireFox icon. When switching Windows that Icon helps me identify what program is running in that window. That saves me time. How do I restore it without changing theme I'm using which is the default.
I feel programers have forgotten that there is a reason behind many of the layout convention of Window (and also MAC(s)) and it has to do with the way we read and write and the use of a keyboard.
It's such a small thing I want in here and it's a very important mindset I wish programers had: English, Literate, keyboard.
Thank you
Dave

Hi,
Try entering text or an email address after tapping the reply or new message button, as shown on page 66 of the iPod touch User Guide. http://manuals.info.apple.com/enUS/iPod_touch_3.1_UserGuide.pdf
If the issue persists, try forcing the Mail app to close and relaunching it. This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1445 will walk you through the process.
Also, you can always restore the iPod touch to rule out issues with the software on the iPod. This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414 will walk you through restoring the iPod touch.

  • Suddenly - and for no reason that I can think of - my keyboard does not show on screen what I am typing. In other words it is gibberish.

    This has just started today; yesterday, I downloaded a Zone Alarm update which was genuine and I have done a full scan for virus and malware – nothing!
    I have tried the FN+NumLock idea which I saw on the internet but that doesn’t seem to work.
    Any ideas?

    Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.<br>
    Please scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br>
    All these programs have free versions.
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

  • Keyboard trackpad not working

    All of a sudden my keyboard and trackpad don't work on my Macbook. USB keyboards and mice work fine. I took off the keyboard and tried it on another Macbook and it worked fine. Don't know if any recent updates or firmware changes have been done. Any ideas of how to fix or is this a motherboard issue?

    Well I opened it clicked a few things with my "wireless mightymouse" and went to type keyboard did not work so i tried the track pad. So i found this post looking on the web. looked other placess. thought i would shut it down as soon as it went off it immediately turned back on. so i tried again. no luck so i took out the batery unpluged it. Then it would not turn on. Apple is sending a box by monday. I told them i think it is a logicboard="motherboard" problem.

  • Ipad keyboard disabled, not using bluetooth. How do I turn keyboard back on??

    Trying to input some data for a ipad based POS and I somehow disabled the keyboard on the ipad and cannot figure out how to re-enable it. Does anyone know how to disable/ enable the keyboard for ipad 4??

    Thanks so much for your response! I should have worded my question better though I meant to say, I am not using a bluetooth keyboard, I did, however set up a bluetooth printer to the ipad and since then, the keyboard does not appear on screen.. Does it confuse this bluetooth connection and assume it is a keyboard? How do i get the onscreen keyboard back? Thanks again!

  • IPAD KEYBOARD PROBLEMS - Not typing in English

    Hello All
    I've been battling this problem for a while now so thought I would post a message to see if anyone else has had the same problem.
    I live in Holland but am from the UK. I brought my Ipad in Holland and set the keypad up to type in English. But it doesn't. Everytime I type the word 'the' it ALWAYS types it in capitals so I have to keep going back and deleting and typing again. Everytime I type the word 'a' it puts a mark above it like the french A.
    I checked the settings and it still says it is in English but I know it can't be as the words it comes up with are not normal and the two problems I mentioned above.
    I can't believe this might originate from buying this in HOlland and it being set up in English......
    Anyone else had problems or got any ideas????
    Thanks
    Nikki

    I checked the settings and it still says it is in English
    In Settings > General > International > Keyboards, is there only English on the list and nothing else? If not, use the Edit button to delete any other keyboards.
    Otherwise you might try a Reset.
    Buying it in Holland should not make any difference, the software is the same everywhere they are sold.

  • Touch Screen Keyboard - not working.

    My touch screen keyboard does not come up when I want to use it and so I can only use my keyboard once I slide the screen up. I must have hit a button but for life of me cannot find which one I need to turn it back on again. It use to come up automatically when I touched in a typing area for texts, web etc - now nothing. Please help.

    One of these two things should reinstate that feature:
    1- A battery pull.  With your phone powered on, remove your battery then replace it.
    2- Reload your OS by using BlackBerry Desktop Software.  Open the software on your PC (with your phone connected) and click Device in the software then Restore.
    Let us know if either one of those suggestions helps.

  • HELP: iPhone 6 Keyboard/Touch Screen Not Working

    Hello.
    I recently acquired to an iPhone 6, which has been working properly for the last two weeks. Today, my keyboard/touch screen stopped working properly. When I am typing in iMessage, or trying to compose an email, enter a URL, or anything else that requires my touch keyboard, my "123" button that switches to numbers, punctuation, and special characters does not open. I updated my software to iOS 8.3., which switched to a new and "improved" emoji keyboard, but I did this after my keyboard had already become unresponsive. If I click on the emjoi keyboard icon to switch over, the "ABC" button to swtich back to QWERTY is unresponsive. This is REALLY frustrating! The phone is two weeks old, and I cannot use to for a huge chunk of functionality.
    It's not a dead spot on the touch screen. When I am not trying to access the keyboard, that little bottom left corner works fine to open/use my Phone app.
    I really don't want to reset my phone. Any other ideas?
    I made a Genius Bar appointment for next Wednesday 4/15, but that seems like an eternity from now.
    Please help!

    To make sure that this is not software related, set it back to factory settings, without using any backup data afterwards. Set up the rest of the personal settings manually and test the Touch Screen . If it still does not work, this is a hardware issue and the phone has to be serviced by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider:
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
    Find an Apple Authorized Service Provider

    If you want to edit a word document then you will need an app on your iPad that supports word so that you can copy them to it via 'open in' e.g. Apple's Pages app or a third-party app such as Documents To Go or QuickOffice HD

    Basics from the manual are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.  If you've been through ALL these steps and you still have the problem, you'll need to bring the phone to Apple.
