Help :  I cant use my caps lock

My cat walked my keyboard.
Then  my problem started.
I can not hide keyboard & Cahracter Viewers in menu bar.
So I cant use caps lock key.
I tried to reset,,,  but did not work.
Please advise me...  :-(

Wow, your cat really went to town!
Go to System Preferences>Keyboard click the Keyboard tab then then the Modifier Keys button.
Make sure that the Caps Lock Key is set to Caps Lock. While you're there, make sure the other modifier keys are set to your liking.

  • TS3274 Please help, i cant use mt ipad at all.

    i have a pop up on my display screen stating my ipad is not backed up yet and to plug it in, have the screen locked and be connected to wi fi, however i have turned my wi fi off in settings and now cannot close the pop up or use ipad at all, cant even turn it off. Please help

    Try a soft-reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    When the iPad has restarted you can force a backup via Settings > iCloud

  • I use a French bluetooth keyboard how do i lock the numbers for doing calculations? Does anybody know? i.e. the numbers are above the top row of keys and you have to use the shift key to access them.  You can't use the cap lock key to lock the numbers.

    How do I lock the numbers on a French keyboard if I'm using a small blue tooth keyboard with no number pad?

  • Need help! cant use CL2 DDR400

    last time when i use hyperx DDR400 CL2 my neo2 only can run CL2.5 and now i change to corsair CL2 DDR400, situation even worst.. only running CL3.. no matter how i adjust the timing manually.. still the CL3.. or i need to use ceratin version of bios then only i can manually adjusted it??

    you could be right on that Mike, but also know that 865PE boards HATE ram with CAS of 2.. it's just the chipset itself that cant run the CAS 2.. its been known since they came out.. i mean, some ppl sure can run at 2, but most cant.. there are a couple of excpetions ..
    but how you change is go to DRAM settings in BIOS, press enter on "SPD" and go to manual... then go to CAS and change it to whatever you desire.. for you. 2.5 would be great, and then lower some of those timings, cause Hyper-X and Corsair is some good stuff

  • Help please , cant use Itunes text displays ||||||||

    I'v installed, uninstalled, read different threads and cant figure this out. Large portions of the text just appear as vertical hash marks. XP is up to date and no viruses found.
    HP Pavilion 7965   Windows XP   1.7gig 512meg ATI radion960

    I had this problem until just now. What you need to do is scroll down to the bottom of your homepage on itunes store. In the middle at the bottom you'll see "My Store" there you will need to select your country to get it to show $ and the correct language.
    Hope this helps.

  • Help ! cant use my movies or tv shows i bought :(

    I had to get a new mother board for my computer but i redownloaded itunes and everything else is here except my movies and tv shows i bought ...!!!!  how do i fix this and get them back without having to buy them again ? i had tv shows and movies that arent here   on my purchase history it shows i bought them .. but so far cant get them to redownload   any suggestions  please!!!

    Hi NeedhelpAapl,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If movies or tv shows aren't playing in iTunes, I'd first make sure that the computer is authorized with the Apple ID used to make iTunes Store purchases. You may want to try de-authorizing and authorizing the computer again:
    iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
    You can also report an issue with purchases by following the steps in this article:

  • TS3694 keep getting Error 9 can you help as cant use my phone

    help keep getting error 9 when trying to restore phone

    Hi there Holly N,
    You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
    Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors

    Configure your security software
    Related errors: 2, 4, 6, 9, 1000, 1611, 9006, 9807, or 9844. Sometimes as a result of this issue, a device might stop responding during the restore process.
    Check your security software and settings, which can block ports and prevent connection to Apple servers during update and restore.

  • [KDE 4.9] Using a shell script as a KDE shortcut - Caps Lock Notify

    Hi, all
    I was trying to create a small script to send a notification if the Caps Lock is active or not. The script works correctly in the terminal, but when I use the script as a shortcut in KDE it does not work ... I simply trigger the shortcut with the "Caps Lock".
    Below is the script that I created:
    #!/bin/bash
    # Send a notification of CAPS LOCK on/off
    # Icon used in the notification
    icon="/usr/share/icons/NITRUX/devices/48/keyboard.svg"
    # verify if the CAPS is on/off
    value=$(xset q | grep "LED mask" | sed -r "s/.*LED mask:\s+[0-9a-fA-F]+([0-9a-fA-F]).*/\1/")
    if [ "$value" == "0" ]; then
    output="Off"
    else
    output="On"
    fi
    # Send notification (use Gnome or KDE)
    # GNOME
    #notify-send -i $icon "Caps Lock $output" -t 1000
    #KDE
    kdialog --icon $icon --passivepopup "Caps Lock $output" --title "Keyboard" 1
    Could someone help me pointing what I'm doing wrong?
    Thanks in advance!
    EDIT: If I do not use the "caps lock" as a trigger, the script works as it should (I tried using "ctrl + alt + L") ...

    Hi! Thanks for replying. I've tried the sleep command, still saying that caps is always on (if it is what you mean).
    What I meant is to do something like:
    $(sleep .5; echo kdialog --icon $icone --passivepopup "Caps Lock $saida" --title "Teclado" 1) &
    When I use it on the script it just printi "Caps" on the notification, as if it was reading just the first word of the "Caps Lock $saida".
    Edited the script to this:
    #!/bin/bash
    # Manda aviso de CAPS LOCK on/off
    # icone pra usar na notificacao
    icone="/usr/share/icons/NITRUX/devices/48/keyboard.svg"
    # verifica se o Caps esta ligado
    valor=$(xset q | grep "LED mask" | sed -r "s/.*LED mask:\s+[0-9a-fA-F]+([0-9a-fA-F]).*/\1/")
    if [ "$valor" == "0" ]; then
    $(sleep .5; echo kdialog --icon $icone --passivepopup "Caps Lock Off" --title "Teclado" 1) &
    else
    $(sleep .5; echo kdialog --icon $icone --passivepopup "Caps Lock On" --title "Teclado" 1) &
    fi
    # Dispara alerta (usar Gnome ou KDE)
    # GNOME
    #notify-send -i $icone "Caps Lock $saida" -t 1000
    #KDE
    #$(sleep .5; echo kdialog --icon $icone --passivepopup "Caps Lock $saida" --title "Teclado" 1) &

    Maybe you could post the script if you are still having trouble?
    Thanks for the info about single key short cuts. I guess it has never occurred to me. (Maybe because on a laptop you can't usually spare a whole key for a single short cut!)
    The script is the one in the OP. I'm using a laptop.
    EDIT:
    Updated OP script to english...

  • Unable to use keyboard without Caps Lock on

    Hi Guys, I gave my keyboard a little bit of a clean the other day (with relevant wipes) and since then my keyboard is not functioning correctly.  It did turn itself on once or twice during the process, so I have clearly hit something I shouldn't have
    The problem I have is that I can't use the keyboard without enabling the CAPS Lock.  Without using the CAPS Lock pressing random keys, produces random effects (mainly functional things) and with the CAPS LOCK on I can type normally, just all in caps (for this I am using my desktop!)
    Troubleshooting to date:-
    Accessibility => Mouse & Trackpad => Enable Mouse Keys (off) always has been
    Accessibilty => Keyboard Preferences => Short Cuts => Restored to Default
    Accessibilty => Keyboard Preferences => Input Sources => British
    Accessibilty => Keyboard Preferences => Modifier Keys => Restored to Default
    I have a setup another user account but the problem persists in all accounts
    I have tried other applications but the problem is replicated
    I have rebooted several times to no effect
    OSX 10.9 (all updates up to date)
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Oh additionally the track pad seems to be doing slighly random things ie standard run click actually brings up sub menus!

    Since no one else is jumping it I’ll suggest the general cures of
    SMC reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    and PRAM reset
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
    You have tried quite a few cures so if these don’t work take it to an Apple Genius Bar for a free diagnosis and estimate of repairs.

  • My caps lock light is not turning on no matter what I do. PLEASE HELP!

    My caps lock light is not turning on no matter what I do. PLEASE HELP!

    Hi lahiri,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that the Caps Lock key on your MacBook Air is staying lit as if the Caps Lock is engaged and you cannot turn it off. One article I would suggest taking a look at in this situation is attached below. If the information does not help you solve your issue, please let me know more about the situation. Are the letters you type in all caps all the time or can you adjust between upper and lower case using the Caps Lock key and the light just stays on?

  • Performance problem when using CAPS LOCK piano input

    Dear reader,
    I'm very new to Logic and am running into a performance problem when using the CAPS LOCK-piano-keyboard for input of an instrument: when I'm not recording everything is fine and the program instantly responds on my keystrokes, but as soon as I go into record-mode there is sometimes a delay in the response-time (so I press a key and it takes up to half a second longer before the note is actually played).
    Is there anything to do about this to improve performance (for example turning of certain features of the application), or should I never use the CAPS LOCK keyboard anyway and go straight for an external MIDI-keyboard?
    Thanks and regards,
    Tim Metz

    Does your project have Audio tracks and just how heavy it is, how many tracks? Also, what kind of Software Instrument do you use?

  • MIDI note delay / stagger using Caps Lock keyboard and 3rd party plugins

    Whenever I am using any of the following plugins:
    Waldorf PPG Wave, Waldorf D-Pole or Audio Damage Reverence,
    with the respective plugin windows open, I can hit several notes on the Caps Lock keyboard simultaneously and some of them will trigger after the rest.
    Interestingly, Reverence and D-Pole are effects, and so placing them on any audio instrument, including those that came with Logic, causes them to behave as PPG Wave always does when its plugin window is open.
    The delay time seems to be variable.
    When the plugin windows are closed, there is no delay.
    As well, triggering many notes at once or notes in quick succession seems to cause things to stagger up more.
    Sometimes the MIDI notes get stuck and continue playing until they are pushed again.
    This seems strange to me, as CPU usage on the plugins is extremely low (the CPU meter does not even register a single mark).
    The problem does NOT occur if I draw out a MIDI sequence that does precisely the sort of things that cause the holdups when I am using the Caps Lock keyboard.
    Is the Caps Lock keyboard just not very good at certain things?
    Why would this problem occur only with these specific plugins?
    None of Logic's included plugins have this problem (unless of course I stick Reverence or D-Pole on them as an insert and open the Reverence window).
    Naturally this is an inconvenience that can be worked around, but it is annoying.
    Thanks for your time.

    Hey Rob,
    I opened up the Activity Monitor, and CPU usage in Logic Express is 35-40% with the plugin window open and between 16-20% with it closed.
    That doesn't seem to be it, but your suggestion that the Caps Lock keyboard is probably just not good at handling many notes at once is definitely correct.
    I plugged in a MIDI keyboard and the CPU usage is the same, but there is no staggering problem.
    Perhaps there is something off with the CPU meter in Logic Express 7, though.
    The Audio side registers activity, but the CPU side says nothing, when clearly the Activity Monitor has it right.
    Anyway, thank you for answering my question--it is sort of an annoying little problem, but I just won't play fast with Caps Lock, I suppose.
