How to type vertical line on macbook pro keyboards?

Please tell me how to type vertical line on macbook pro keyboards?

(1) It sounds like you might be using a Spanish keyboard. You should specify this to begin with. Unless you do, the default assumption is that you're using a US keyboard. The advice you received is correct for the US keyboard.
(2) To see how to enter any character available with your current keyboard, enable Keyboard Viewer, as described here
<http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.7/en/mh35878.html>
(3) There is no "alt" key on a Mac keyboard. You are talking about the Option (⌥) key. See (search for "Alt key" in)
What's it called on my Mac?

(4) My advice is move on from Fraise. AFAIK, it's dead. Try TextWrangler, which is free and more capable.

    I have vertical green lines on the display of a 15" MacBook Pro with Retina screen.  Getting progressively worse with additional lines and colors.  Not due to any abuse or damage.

    Well not much of a mystery,  your GPU/cable/connection is failing.

  • Green vertical lines on macbook pro 15-inch display

    A single green vertical line has appeared on the display after opening lid from sleep.
    Is there a firmware update for 15-in MacBook Pros?  I see one out there for 17-inch models.

  • Vertical lines on Macbook Pro

    These vertical lines starting coming on the Macbook Pro when restarting it and if it show the vertical lines, it would just go to a white screen and I'd have to do this a few times until the lines stopped appearing - I found leaving it on the white screen for a few minutes helped before restarting it then the lines would not appear and the macbook pro would restart fine - THIS OCCURRED BEGINNING OF JULY
    This then stopped happening near the end of july or beginning of August for some reason. It then started again, when I installed Minecraft, but it only occurred for a few days. I've been playing Minecraft fine.
    It recently started again last week, and the macbook pro would either show a screen of a colour e.g. blue/brown then turn off and a few attempts were made to restart the macbook pro. (This was upon playing Minecraft).
    Playing Minecraft was fine for a few days without the Macbook Pro switching off.
    This started again 2 days ago and whenever I play mine craft - it lets me play for a few minutes then the computer freezes and so I have to press the power button to restart the macbook pro. The Macbook Pro is fine when not playing Minecraft, but this did occur before installing Minecraft on the computer. I have tried playing Spore and that seemed fine as I was on it for about 10 minutes.
    I don't understand why the vertical lines would start again upon installing mine craft then stop and then start again and then stop then start again.
    Any ideas on the problem? (I know I could just stop playing Minecraft, but the problem is still there in the macbook)
    Note: The picture with the pixelated squares has only occurred once which was today after restarting the macbook and pressing option-command-p-r. (I talked to an apple web chatter and he said try this).

    Here are the pictures which I forgot to post with the question:

  • Black Vertical Lines On Macbook Pro Display

    I bought a new 15.4 inch Macbook Pro about a month and a half ago and started seeing black vertical columns displaying statically on my display. Here's a link to the picture of it I took with my cellphone http://i281.photobucket.com/albums/kk222/rs-1981/Macbook%20Pro/photo.jpg So i brought the laptop to the genius bar, explained what was wrong, and they gave me a new replacement. They had no idea what it was.
    So here I am about 1 month later with the new laptop and it's starting to happen all over again. I can usually get the screen to go back to normal after rebooting and it will be fine for a few days and then it starts all over again.
    Any ideas of what could be going wrong and any advice on what I should expect apple to do about it would be highly appreciated. I really don't want to have them replace a second time only for this to happen again.
    Thanks

    you're not alone. it's something all macbook pros 15" are having. it seems to be caused when the display changes brightness, wakes from sleep, power cord removed, or just randomly. Close the lid and reopen to remove the stripes.

  • Green vertical line on MacBook Pro 15 inch 2.53 GHZ (purchased 06/09)

    I wanted to make people aware of a vertical green line which appeared 2 weeks after the 1 year warranty expired. The Apple Store said the display assembly needed to be replaced ($492.00 to fix). Pretty disappointing to get such an expensive hardware problem on a fairly new computer. Just wanted to make people aware.

    A mid 15" 2009 MBP will accept 8 GB RAM with the following specifications:  204-pin PC3-8500 (1066 MHz) DDR3 SO-DIMM.
    The best sources of Mac compatible RAM are OWC and Crucial.
    Ciao.

    Hi all,
    Could you go one fiurther and insert 2 x 8gb into it?
    NO!
    Not sure how much it can handle but it's running quite slow so I'd like to upgrade the RAM if possible.
    There may be other reasons why your MBP is slow.  RAM is usually not the cure unless you are running a lot of applications.

  • Blue vertical thin line at macbook pro screen

    How to remove blue vertical thin line at macbook pro screen?

    It's not likely that YOU can... it's MORE likely that you've a glitch with either your screen or your GPU. You need to take your machine into your local Apple Store or an AASP and have them take a look at your machine. The diagnosis and any estimate for repair will be free.
    Be prepared, though, if you don't have the extended AppleCare Protection Plan, to pay for any required repairs.

  • How do I login to my macbook pro if I forgot my password?

    How do I login to my macbook pro if I forgot my password?

    If the user account is associated with an Apple ID, and you know the Apple ID password, then maybe the Apple ID can be used to reset your user account password. In OS X 10.10 and later, this option also works with FileVault, but only if you enabled it when you activated FileVault. It's not retroactive.
    Otherwise*, start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities window appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen—not from any of the items in the OS X Utilities window.
    In the window that opens, type this:
    resetp
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window opens. Close the Terminal window to get it out of the way.
    Select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected. You won't be able to do this if FileVault is active.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Follow the prompts to reset the password. It's safest to choose a password that includes only the characters a-z, A-Z, and 0-9.
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.
    You should now be able to log in with the new password, but the Keychain will be reset (empty.) If you've forgotten the Keychain password (which is ordinarily the same as the login password), there's no way to recover it.
    *Note: If you've activated FileVault, this procedure doesn't apply. Follow instead these instructions.

  • How can I connect an old macbook pro...

    How can I connect an old macbook pro with that does NOT have a Thunderbolt connection to a new 27 inch iMac? I only need to do this for one specific purpose, to be able to see the work I'm doing on the laptop in InDesign on the iMac's larger screen (at a larger size as it were, so I can see a double page spread (or even a whole page would be an improvement) in one go)?  I gather it might be possible to get an adaptor but note that Apple don't seem to sell one. I know I could do this with the cinema screen but would rather do it with a new imac as that will have more use to me overall. It's a work laptop which I don't own so I don't own the Indesign to just be able to use that on an iMac. I have tried to connect monitors to the laptop in the past, but with no success at all.  I hope someone can help . Thank you.

    Im pretty sure you are talking about the M8536 which has an ADC Adapter.
    you will have to daisy chain a thunderbolt to DVI adapter with an DVI to ADC Adapter.
    the first adapter:

    The second adapter is old so you may find used ones on ebay like this:
