Error beeps (when pressing keys)

Hi,
How does one stop the annoying error beeps occurring when an unused keyboard key - such as the 'Esc' key - is pressed in a window based Cocoa application?

I've found a solution.
For anyone wondering the same question, try placing the following method in the code of each .m file, and test if it works:
- (void) keyDown: (NSEvent*) theEvent {}
For me, it was the NSView .m file, that made it work.

  • RAM error beep when trying to boot install disc

    I'm trying to re-install OSX in order to get a clean system and upgrade the OS. However, if I try to boot from the OSX Leopard install disc, I get the three RAM error beeps. I bought new compatible RAM (2x2GB SODIMM), tried with one of the old banks, then the other, in both available slots, then the new RAM - nothing helps: Booting the system with no install disc inserted works fine, having it inserted results in the beeps. It doesn't matter if I try straight boot, pressing C, using rEFIt or going for the device's own pre-boot OS selection menu, nothing helps.
    I had the screen replaced on warranty a couple weeks ago, but I do not assume that poses a problem. Can anyone help?
    Thanks!

    Why do you have rEFIt installed?
    To be able to multi-boot OSX, Win7, and Ubuntu.
    What is your machine and what OS X does it have?
    Early 2011 MacBook Pro 15" non-glare screen. 4GB stock RAM.
    What's on the disk 10.5 or 10.6?
    The disk is Leopard, as far as I can remember. I believe I got Snow Leopard over the App store.
    Have you cleaned the disk, use another?
    I don't exactly have another disc ... but I tried to image them to a SD card and that gave the same results.
    What are you trying to do exactly?
    Completely wipe the drive (low-level) to be able to sell the device.

    trying to play a game and only noticed it now. bought it a month ago. thats cuzi didnt need to press keys and move mouse at same time. ELAN touchpad, palm check at minimum settings.

    Hi there,
    did you download the latest ELAN trackpad driver from http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/default.page
    The one on the CD is old.
    However, this new trackpad driver has problems of its own, although at least it won't freeze on you.

  • Since I installed on my Mac os10.6 to the latest version of Firefox I am getting error beeps when I try to type. It won't let me re-type or delete anything

    I can type but if I make a mistake and want to retype or delete what I've typed it just beeps at me and won't allow me to type. I can use the cut and paste feature to fix things but what a complete hassle. How do I fix this annoying problem?

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

  • Winxp is gone when pressing option key at startup, "no bootable device"

    Hi everyone,
    I'm new to mac and recently bought a MBP.
    I did bootcamp and installed windows xp and SP3 at the same time in a small partition, I remember it was 8gb.
    I had no problem booting in to xp or mac after the installation, I can even press option and see both OS.
    But now I cannot boot to windows, at startup while pressing the option key, I only see mac os and not windows. I also tried rebooting from the startup disk utility, but it has a black screen saying "no bootable disk found." It wants me to insert a bootable disk, so I inserted the window xp disk and has to force restart the laptop. Then it started a process like trying to load the files to reinstall win xp, of course I didn't let it.
    Now when I went back to disk utilities I see that the winxp partition is 9.2gb, it was 8gb when I made it.
    Recently I split my mac partition into 2, I tried to do the time machine back up, but then it takes too long so I canceled it and deleted the partition. I wonder if this affects my window xp partition.
    Now I cannot see winxp when pressing option key at startup, but can see it in startup disk utility, and disk utility. When I boot from startup disk utility, it shows "no bootable device, insert cd, and press anykey..." I tried verifying and repairing the parition in disk utility, didn't work.
    So this is all I did before I cannot boot into xp.
    1. made new partition for winxp (formated partition as FAT)in bootcamp and installed winxp + sp3. everything was fine.
    2. create another partition, and call it "data" <-want to create this for data only, while the other half is for software installation only.
    3. create another partition for time machine, but when running time machine it says the partition is too small, so I delete it and make the partition bigger.then I run time machine, but since it takes way too long, I canceled it, and deleted the partition.
    4. in winxp, had installed kapersky anti-virus 9.0
    Now, I have 3 partitions: 1 for software installation, 1 for data, and 1 for winxp.
    So why can't I boot to windows? Did things overwrite? Please help me, I'm so frustrated. Thank you.

    Thanks fortuny,
    I had read the link you suggested. And since my partition for windows is FAT32, as noted in the website, I can edit the boot.ini directly in my mac. In my mac, it already shows that the partition # is 3,
    [boot loader]
    timeout=30
    default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(3)\WINDOWS
    [operating systems]
    multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(2)\WINDOWS="Microsoft Windows XP Professional" /NOEXECUTE=OPTIN/fastdect
    but my window os is not booting.
    Like the link noted, "it crashes with the "I'm sorry, we couldn't start up Windows. Do you want to start in Safe Mode?" screen. You'll also see a flicker of the BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH, which flashes an UNMOUNTABLEBOOTVOLUME error so quickly you won't have a chance to read it. This was the hint that the BOOT.INI entries were incorrect..."
    According to the boot.ini in the site, my boot.ini file was already set up correctly, so why can't windows startup?
    Also something I don't understand from this:
    "NOTES: If you didn't follow the instructions and chose to PARTITION the existing volume instead of RESIZING then ADDING a partition, this appears to mess up BootCamp's boot loader and you may have to start again. Step 3, however, may offer you a way out."
    When I did the 3rd partition, I did it in Disk Utility in mac, not from the mac os cd, and I split the mac partition into 2, I didn't do the "resizing," then using the unused space to make new partition... I wonder if this is causing the normal booting...
    So do I start again by deleting my data partition or start from reinstalling windows? If the problem can be fixed without installing windows, of course, it would be great.

  • I get error message when trying to add key tags

    I get error message when trying to add key tags

    You should always backup your iPad before ever doing anything major that coould result in a catastrophic loss is something goes wrong. You can then usually restore from the backup when your iPad has recovered.
    You should also be sure to have transfered any new purchases directly to your iPad to the iTunes app on your computer on a regular basis.

  • Getting error message when passing data into table: Primary Key

    Getting an error in a process that is feeding the invoice creation in SAP, violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'INV1_Primary', cannot insert duplicate key in object 'INV1'. I assume this is due to duplicate key values being passed into the table INV1, however I get this error even when I am passing unique record combinations of the key fields docentry and linenum. This is on 2005A SP01.
    Thanks

    Hi Peter,
    Could you provide a code sample of the routine that is causing the error please?
    It sounds like a data corruption issue (though it could possibly be a bug in the DI API). I recommend you speak to SAP support. There is a utility that can validate the document numbering but you'll need to speak to SAP support before you run this as it can have other negative effects, depending on the state of your data. They may ask for a copy of your database to test.
    Kind Regards,
    Owen

  • Thinkpad keyboard problem - some keys generate multiple keys when pressed

    thinkpad keyboard problem - some keys generate multiple keys when pressed
    For example, "t" generates "tr", "y" generates "yu", "backspace" generates "backspace" plus "IBM access connections", "m" generates "mn" and "n" generates "mn".  Not all keys are wrong. 
    For what it's worth, the odd behaviour started shortly after a trip to Miami in which I had a meeting at a cafe in which we were undercover but it was pouring cats and dogs - it was like having a meeting in a sauna - so I am wondering if the high humidity could have caused the behaviour.
    I tried replacing the keyboard but the new keyboard has the same problem.  
    The machine in question is a Thinkpad T23 running Windows XP Pro
    Any help would be appreciated as I am now in Los Angeles using a borrowed Mac! :-) 

    i have something along the lines of the same problem.

    my conclusion is something in the last system update screwed it up.

  • TS1702 Cannot get iPhone 4 to talk with Mac Lion using Numpad. Have updated, restarted etc. Have Screen Sharing on. It sees my computer but when I press keys on the NumPad there is no response. I have tried it on the Calculator and on Sibelius. Any clues?

    Cannot get iPhone 4 to talk with Mac Lion using Numpad. Have updated, restarted etc. Have Screen Sharing on. It sees my computer but when I press keys on the NumPad there is no response. I have tried it on the Calculator and on Sibelius. Any clues??

    Here's how to do it.
    1. App Store, iTunes Store should have the same AppleID on Computer and iPhones. (Free to share apps, music and books... )
    2. Person A uses the same purchasing account for everything (ie. email, contacts and ...).
    3. Person B have the same purchase account see no. 1 (for App Store and iTunes Store) but create a second AppleID for iCal, e-mail, contacts  and etc.
