Hitting spacebar causes window to scroll down

I am using an Imac and have recently had the problem on my wireless keyboard that when I am on an Internet site and I hit the spacebar while typing in the search field the window will scroll down for about half a page. Any solutions?

Are you using Safari or Firefox? I know the default behavior for Firefox is to scroll the last line on the page to the top (just to make reading web pages easier). Are you sure you are actually in a data entry field when you hit the space bar?

  • SQL window keep scrolling down to the last line

    Is there a setting that will keep the SQL window from always scrolling down to the last line in the window? This feature is very annoying when trying to review code that is longer that the window size.

    You'd have to give more details as to what's your environment and what exactly is failing, but FWIW my tables' SQL tabs behave the same as all others; they start up scrolled up, and can be scrolled as you whish...

  • Sync Q10 to Outlook Contacts & Calendar - Clicking on "Configure" Causes Windows to Shut Down Blackberry Link

    I'm trying to sync my contacts and calendar from my Q10 to Outlook on my PC.  I have downloaded Blackberry Link and connect my Q10 via USB.  When I ran the sync it set up a new contact group on my BB in the name of my PC but doesn't copy the contacts from my BB to my PC.  I now have three contact groups on my BB (work, gmail, & now PC).
    On the Calender/Contacts sync screen, under Settings, there's a "Configure" link beside both Contacts and Calander.  Saw a Youtube video that says this is where to go to set the sync to two way but every time I click on this link a Windows box pops up saying BlackBerry Link has stopped working and it needs to close.  I've deleted and uploaded Blackberry Link several tiems but it still hapens.  
    I have explored the solution from www.bb10outlooksync.com but there are indications that this may wipe out the contact data on the Q10 on the initial sync so not comfortable running this yet.  Having an equally difficult time trying to figure out how to backup the contacts on my Q10.
    I also don't want to send my contacts to a website so looking for a USB solution.  Can anyone help with this?

    I am not sure but this might help:

  • Printing duplex with HP Officejet Pro 8600 causes windows 7 OS to shut down/restart

    Why when printing duplex with my HP Officejet Pro 8600 printer it causes windows 7( 64-bit) to shut down/restart. Windows message is "Windows has recovered from an unexpected shutdown.  I've ran HP Hardward Diag. Utility and Print and Scan Doctor which indicated everything is working properly with the printer.  Ocassionaly I can print duplex without windows shutting down and restarting, but most of the time it creates issue with Windows causing it to stop and restart.  Single sided printing seems to be fine.  I've already oncehad windows to "Startup Repair" in which ccase I selected restore to a previous working point.  Everything worked for awhile then a duplex printing session starting causing windows to shut down again.   THanks for your assistance.

    Yes, the updated USB 3.0 driver corrects the issue and should be installed.

  • Gmail scroll down arrow is covered by Firefox 4 window resize icon

    I updated Firefox to version 4 and now the scroll down arrow for the main mailbox of Gmail is covered up by the window resizing triangle icon for Firefox at the bottom right on the window.
    The scroll down arrow is effectively made unavailable.
    This appears to be the only site that causes this problem.

    You can add the bottom back back to your screen, which will move the resize corner below the scroll arrows. Just go to the '''View menu''' > '''Toolbars''' and enable the '''Add-on bar'''.

  • Adobe Flash embeds will not be animated if they are completely hidden by another tab, window, or by scrolling down. If any part of the Flash is made visible, it will play again.

    Pretty much what's up there.
    If there's a Flash open, and I scroll down/open a window/open a new tab such that it is not visible anymore, it will not be animated. It freezes until any portion of it is visible again. This wasn't happening before a flash update, I believe.

    They will stay on the screen.  However, Process Monitor is only intended for advanced users.  It is recommended that users try to navigate to the troublesome registry key using regedit, and see if they can access it or not without an error.  This is far easier than trying to use Process Monitor, which is very complicated.
    I used Process Monitor to confirm that it was just that key which was causing the problem, and not others.  Process Monitor is not to be confused with the new Resource Monitor which is accessible via Task Manager in Windows 7 (and possibly Vista).  If you must experiment (and Process Monitor is very useful for diagnosing many deep-level problems if you know what you're looking for) Process Monitor can be downloaded from here:
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645
    It replaces the older Sysinternals "FileMon" and "RegMon".  For those interested in the technical side, I had to setup a number of filters to be able to get the results display as in the screenshot.  First of all to just show Registry events.  Then to just show events from the manual Flash activeX installer executable.  The I added a filter to show only non-successfull results.  And finally, for the purposes of the screenshot, added a filter to just show those with "Access Denied", since other non-critical errors are also picked up due to missing keys because installation has not yet been fully completed I guess.   When experimenting, most of these filters were applied using the "is not" boolean logic, which will make sense if you experiment with the program.
    Without adding any filters, it picks up so many events (hundreds per second) that it's otherwise unusable.  e.g. 40,000 events within the first few seconds of opening the program. For this reason, I recommend simply using Regedit to diagnose the problem with the particular Flash registry key.

  • Scrolling down album list in iPhoto causes iPhoto crash

    Scrolling down to bottom of the album list in the sidebar in iPhoto causes iPhoto to lock-up with the spinning ball or crash altogether, any suggestions?

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    Enter the name of the crashed application or process in the Filter text field. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
    When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
    Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    Still in the Console window, look under User Diagnostic Reports for crash reports related to the process. The report name starts with the name of the crashed process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report and post the entire contents — again, the text, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don’t post shutdownStall, spin, or hang logs — they're very long and not helpful.

    It could be the work of one of your add-ons.
    Type '''about:addons'''<enter> in the address bar to open your Add-ons Manager.
    Hot key; '''<Control>''(Mac:<Command>)''<Shift> A)'''
    In the Add-ons Manager, on the left, select '''Extensions.'''
    Disable a few add-ons, then '''Restart Firefox.'''
    Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause
    Firefox issues. '''Disable All of them.'''
    If the problem continues, disable some more (restarting FF). Continue until
    the problem is gone. After, you know what group is causing the issue.
    Re-enable the last group '''ONE AT A TIME''' (restarting FF) until the problem returns.
    Once you think you found the problem, disable that and re-enable all the
    others, then restart again. Let us know who the suspect is detective.

  • Why can't I scroll down on windows of certain sites? Like the new BMO site!

    Why can't I scroll down on windows of certain sites? Like the new BMO site!  Please help, I'm going crazy!

    Use two fingers held together to scroll within a window on a web page.

  • Scroll down with the mouse while the crop tool window is open

    I would like to know if there is a way to scroll down with the mouse while the crop tool window is open, like in Acrobat 5.0. If not with the mouse, is there another shortcut to go through the pages and adjust the size of the crop and see it on different pages? Thanks!

    Yes, but I won't see what I'm cropping if I cannot scroll down while the window is open. Thank you for answering anyway!

  • Getting horizontal wrinkles when scrolling down in active window of firefox.

    Using latest version of Firefox on a Dell XPS 630i, Win 7 Pro. Using an HP w2338h monitor set to 1620 x 1050 at 60 Hz. Video card is aNVIDIA GeForce GTS 240. Logitech Anywhere MX Mouse.
    When scrolling down I get wrinkles across the screen when I hit some text. When I keep scrolling it goes away but reappears lower on the screen. It;s quick and barely noticeable, but just enough to be a pain.
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • When browser window cuts off content (is too small for the page) scrollbar wont scroll down to cropped content.

    Hey everyone,
    I'm having a new problem with Muse. This is my first Muse site, all my previous web work was HTML CSS, but I'm trying to learn the programs. However, I have a weird problem with my page... When the browser is too small - aka the window showing the site is cropping some of the content, the scroll bar appears, but wont scroll down it... I don't understand why. It seems to be happening in all browsers. Likewise, on some computers my footer is missing or invisible, not sure why, but on my computer in all browsers (firefox, chrome, safari) I don't have the problem. Any advice?
    www.DanielleFeliciano.com
    Also, in site properties I have the minimum height set to what would show the whole page, not sure what is going on. I've also noticed, that the scrollbar appears when the page is cropped, it just won't scroll the page..

    Looks like you have your content pinned on the homepage .... or on a layer that is pinned. Probably the header layer.
