How do I get my cursor to not be 1 or 2 spaces ahead of where I am actually typing?

I am running Dreamweaver CS5 in Mavericks.
I have this problem when typing text and it is very annoying.

By any chance, do you have the “Dictation & Speech” feature (newly introduced in Mac 10.9 – Mavericks) turned ON?
You can check the same by following the steps mentioned below:
Open “System Preferences”
Click on “Dictation & Speech” and see if it is turned ON.
Turn it OFF and then check if you still see the issue.
If you need that to be turned ON, disable the “Use Enhanced Dictation” option in “Dictation & Speech”.
See if you still face this issue
Please let us know if you still face the issue. We can have a connect session in that case to have a look on your machine.

  • How can I get a cursor position?

    Hi Everyone!
    In my TextArea, there is a blinking cursor.
    How can I get the cursor position not the mouse position.
    Thanks,

    Thanks JefferyGong!
    That is selection index number, not the coordinate point.
    I want to know point position.
    Gyi

  • How do I stop the cursor from spontaneously going to Line one space one in Notes?

    How do I stop the cursor from spontaneously going to Line one Space one in Notes?
    I am currently working on a MacBook Pro connected by Wi-Fi or Blue Tooth to my 16GB iPhone 4S; and supposedly to iCloud.  I install every upgrade on each computer till the computer can take no more.  My current MacBook Pro continues to accept upgrades.
    I have been dealing with Address Book foibles since it first came out and the problems seem to get worse rather than resolved.
    Problem #1: When a Company Name is checked to take precedence over a personal name the record/file does not surface during searches.  This has happened for years on all my Macs, including most recently my MacBook Pro and its predecessor PowerBook G4.  How do I fix this?
    Problem #2: The Printing Defaults for Address Book Files are not useful and I can find no way to change them to my own preferences once and for all.  I must reset them for every file every time I choose to print a file.  Is there some way to set the defaults to MY preferences and only occasionally reset them according to my needs?
    Problem #3:  When entering information in "Notes" the cursor randomly and spontaneously goes to line one space one as I am entering information.  How do I stop this?  Then when I cut and paste the misplaced text to where it belongs it may or may not return to once again begin at line one space one and following.
    Problem #4:  When Printing a Record/File from Address Book I would like to use the whole 8.5" x 11" page.  Instead it prints on an 8.5" x 11" page in three columns.  Is there a way to format the output?  I have not found one and the Mac 'Geniuses' do not know of any.
    Problem #5:  Subsequent to one of the upgrades in the last year or so, the search feature does not work.  (I have had this computer since May 2011).  No matter what I type in the search line I am stuck in the 'All' Directory.  To find anyone or anything I must scroll through the address book manually.  Is there a fix to this?
    Problem #6:  Sometimes, when I try to sync my MacBook Pro and my iPhone, the records simply duplicate.  How d I undo this without manually deleting the duplicates?
    Problem #7:  Does anyone know of a third party Address-Book-type App that is better than the Apple version and can easily import over 3000 contacts information?

    '''I had the same problem when I updated to firefox 4. This is how i fixed it:'''
    The problem seems to be caused by the 'New Tab Homepage' add on. So:
    # Disable or remove the 'New Tab Homepage' add on and restart firefox.
    # Download and install the firefox add on called 'NewTabURL' and restart firefox.
    # Click on the Options button for NewTabURL and uncheck 'Select location bar after loading new tab'
    # Under the 'Default URL for new tabs' heading, choose 'Home Page'
    # Click on the Save button.
    Hopefully, problem solved!

  • How can I get the cursor's position in a opened file and display a menu?

    Hello,
    I want to make a program by which I will be able to display a panel/pops up menu at the corsor's current position, (In any text/doc file or in the desktop, we can display a menu by right click of the mouse.) Now I want my program to do the same task.
    More clearly-
    1. First I would save some words or sentences in a file(aa.txt).
    2. Then I would open another text file/ a word/ excel/ or any other editor( bb.txt / cc.doc / dd.xls / ee.html ).
    3. While editing or writing something in the opened file, if I click the right mouse button/ press a key (ctrl+space), a menu will appear containing the sentences I saved in the file(aa.txt) previously.
    My program will tell me the cursor's position in bb.txt / cc.doc / dd.xls / ee.html that i opened. And display a menu. my problem is not reading / writing in a file.
    My problem is how can I get the cursor's position in a opened file display a menu at that position by a mouse/key action*.
    Would you please help me on this regard.
    Thanks

    I recently purchased a second hand new macbook air, although it was second hand to me the previous owner had never actually turned it on.
    Something doesn't make sense here, though I'm not saying the previous owner is lying....

    how do i get past the "do not have sufficient privileges" error message installing flashplayer? i've googled the problem and seen the other solutions and for some reason cannot get any of them to work for me.

    I've recommended several things here in the forums and like you, I've seen zero success.
    Run as Administrator = no luck.
    Take ownership of the c drive = no luck.
    Create a new (admin) account = no success.
    I've even seen one poster who reformatted and reinstalled Window 7, and no luck.
    Frankly, I'm at a total loss.

  • How do I get rid of the Not Using SoftArtisan File UP notice that is slowing down my uploads to class where I teach?

    How do I get rid of the Not Using SoftArtisan File UP notice that is slowing down my uploads to class where I teach? A notice now appears every time I upload an image to class as an attachment that says, Not Using SoftArtisan File UP, and this appears to be slowing down my uploads tremendously. I want to get rid of this. I never used it before and don't need it and don't want it. I just want the uploads to work like they did before this idiotic notice started slowing things down.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * On Windows you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux you can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by quitting Firefox and then going to your Terminal and running: firefox -safe-mode (you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    * Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    [[Image:FirefoxSafeMode|width=520]]
    ''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    [[Image:Safe Mode Fx 15 - Win]]
    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
    Thank you.

    The only people who can possibly assist you with this is Apple Customer Relations, call your local Apple contact number and ask for Customer Relations then explain your situation clearly and politely (be firm but don't rant).
    You might want to investiage what the local laws are regarding defective goods and 'fit for use' definitions on warranties etc. Consumer Protection can be a useful tool to use or bargain with if needed ...
