  • IPhone keyboard won't let me type the word "fixes"

    When I try to type the word "fixes", the iPhone (3G, with iPhone OS 2.2) keyboard won't let me type the word "fixes". If I hold down my finger for the last letter, and move it left and right, I can see that it is refusing to allow "S" to be typed. It switches between "A" and "D".
    I have seen other examples of this in the past, where the keyboard simply refuses to type some letters, but never on a common English word before.
    Has anyone found a way around this, other than accepting the wrong letter, backspacing, and re-typing?
    Cheers,
    Will.

    All this time, I thought it was me...I couldn't for the life of me type my daughter's name, Caitlin, into the phone. I would always get C-A-I-R-L-I-N. Again, thought it was just me not being able to hit that key right, though I don't really have a problem with anything else. Then this weekend, I finally tried to force the phone to type it right by trying to slide my finger to the "T", and it was completely skipped over. I went back and forth from "R" to "Y" several times. Nope, the "T" refused to be typed. Now that I know it's a confirmed bug, I feel a little bit better about my iPhone typing skills.

    Contact your carrier. You probably do not have MMS provisioned on your account.

  • My iPhone 5 won't let me use my apps until I connect them with iTunes after downloading ios7. Solutions?

    My iPhone 5 won't let me use my apps until I connect them with iTunes after downloading ios7.  There's just a thing that pops up and says that in order to activate banners and push notifications I have to connect the app with iTunes. The thing won't go away no matter how many times I push ok, and it doesn't give me another option. Solutions?

    Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
    First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
    Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
    When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
    I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck!

  • I'm trying to type a website on the search bar and it won't let me type anything. It keeps clearing after I type a letter! Please Help!

    I'm trying to type a website on the search engine but it won't let me type the website. Like, when I type a letter it'll automatically clear it unless I hold the letter down. How do I fix this?

    You possibly have a redemption code which has to be converted into a serial number.

    Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.
    It is possible that you have switched the keyboard layout by accident by using the key sequence to rotate the layout.

  • MacBook won't let me type anything at all

    MacBook won't let me type anything at all. It's running Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snowleopard

    You have to understand the difference between an Update and an Upgrade.
    An Update is a free change to add to the base code or as a bug fix within an existing Operating System. Such as the .8 added to 10.5.
    An Upgrade is a complete new Operating System that must be purchased. Such as 10.5 Leopard to 10.6 Snow Leopard.
    10.5 Leopard was written for Power PC Macs with code added to allow it to run on Intel processors.
    10.6 Snow Leopard has completely rewritten code and only runs on Intel Macs.
    10.7 Lion used some 32 bit which allows it to run on Late 2006 through Early 2008 MacBooks and a lot of 64 bit code.
    10.8 Mountain Lion is pure 64 bit, which excludes more systems than Lion did. It can only run on the Late 2008 through Mid 2010 MacBooks. It's not something you can add memory to, for example, as it involves the base architecture.

  • Terminal won't let me type my password

    Hiya,
    Don't know anything about Terminal. I'm trying to set my computer up for remote printing to use at my university library. Using my IT services webpage, I copied and pasted a text string into the window as instructed. I got this:
    We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
    Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:
    #1) Respect the privacy of others.
    #2) Think before you type.
    #3) With great power comes great responsibility.
    Password:
    So what I think that means is that whatever I was supposed to enter there was fine. The problem is that it's won't let me type my password. I tried typing all different kinds of characters, and nothing happens- there's just a dark grey box after the colon. If I hit return, it says "sorry, password incorrect" or something.
    My computer is a two-year-old iBook G4 running some kind of OS X, if that matters. Sorry, I feel like this is probably really obvious, but I'm at a loss.
    Thanks,
    Kate
    iBook G4    

    When you are prompted for your password in Terminal nothing will be echoed to the screen when you type your password... no characters, no dots, the cursor won't move... that's normal... it's a security safeguard.
    Just type your password and press the return key.
    However, you must be logged into your computer with an account that has administrator privileges. And it's asking for the password of the account you're logged in to.

  • HELP?! My iPod touch won't let me type anything!

    I just got my ipod touch and finished setting it up and putting all my music on it. I was trying to get on the internet but I have to put in a password for my internet connection. Whenever the keyboard comes up on my iPod it won't let me type anything. It just pops up for a minute and then dissapears! *What's going on??* Can anyone help!

    Where are you physically located?
    What country's Store are you using?
    The two have to be the same and the payment method for your account also has to be associated (billing address, where iTunes gift card was purchased) with that country.
    Has the ID(s) worked before for purchases for this country's store?

  • I'm trying to create an address spread sheet for my wedding invites and won't let me type zip codes that start w a zero "02904" it just automatically drops it "2904" how do u fix that?

    I'm trying to create an address spread sheet for my wedding invites and won't let me type zip codes that start w a zero "02904" it just automatically drops it "2904" how do u fix that?

    The easiest fix is to format the receiving column as Text prior to making your entries.
    Another way is to format as "Numeral System", Base: 10, Places: 5. This doesn't work so well if you need the 4 extra digits that some people like to use.
    It's also possible to create a Custom Format, but it's rather more involved.
