Key not typing letter, but working with Apple key in combination with lette

I have an Indigo iBook. Just today the "f" key has stopped working - at least for tying the letter itself. When I press it in combination with the Apple key however, I get the "find" box to come up, so in some way the key is working on the keyboard. We have removed the cap and directly pressed the plastic underneath; no difference. Slso hooked up an external keyboard - still no f!!!!!
After searching the forums, we have found that many people have had luck removing their keyboard and checking the ribbon cable or the airport spring - do not want to do something so drastic if there is an easier fix.
Thanks very much!
iBook Indigo Mac OS X (10.0.x)

Just an update if anyone has any more ideas - (troy enn - thanks, but nothing was assigned in my Universal Access to the f key).
The f letter works in upper case, just not lower case. So, for now, I am just using the character palette, and inserting an f if I need it - thankfully, for some reason I don't seem to use it all that much!

LiveCycle = XFA forms.
afaik - These cannot be used in Apple OSs.

Your iPhone was hacked or jailbroken before and through the update it locks back to the original carrier. Only the original carrier can unlock the iPhone. You have to contact them and find out what the procedure you needs to follow.

My rule : Internal > external > all users = works fine
But
Internal > external > A group = not working !!

My Macbook Pro won't print with my HP Photosmart 7515. I get the following message, " Print file was not accepted" Printer does work with our PC??

My Macbook Pro won't print with my HP Photosmart 7515. I get the following message, " Print file was not accepted" Printer does work with our PC?? Checked for software updates and are none. Talked with HP help and they say it's an Apple problem

I noticed that you said you uninstalled the printer, but you didn't mention resetting the print system. Resetting the print system will reset the drivers the Mac has installed and make them work like they should. Give this a try and see if it gets the printer working like it should. The document below will expalin more about doing this.
Basic Printer Troubleshooting Steps for Mac
If that doesn't help, see if you are using the AirPrint driver, or the printers driver. By default 10.8 uses the AirPrint driver if the printer supports it, so I'm betting that's the driver you're using. If it is, try using the driver for the printer itself. To do this, access Print and Scan. Click the + sign to add a new printer. Select the printer from the list. Click the dropdown next to Use and select the 7515's driver. Let me know what happens.

The "new" hotmail no longer works with safari, but works with firefox. Hmm.

The "new" hotmail no longer works with safari, but works with firefox. Hmm. i find this very convenient being a microsoft product. anybody else wonder why this new version happens to not be safari compatible? does anybody know if it works on the PC version of safari? if not, i find this to be a blatant move on microsofts part to bias the safari browser (especially since its basicly new on the window platform). forcing safari/hotmail users to "have" to use another browser to access their hotmail accounts.

I have been successfully using Hotmail and Gmail with Safari for a long time. For roughly the past month, that relationship is rocky at best. At times, one of the following actions suddenly opens Hotmail, but it is a short-lived solution:
(a) Hotmail directly
(b) Hotmail Home>Hotmail
(c) Sign up to Windows Hotmail
(d) Deletion of prescribed cookies, resetting, etc. - made no difference
Both Firefox and Opera work fine with Hotmail - especially Opera is very fast.
In addition, Safari and Gmail does not work with Attachments, but otherwise Gmail is OK.
I suspect I have to wait for a Safari fix because in my case I do not wish to abandon Hotmail, and Safari is a given. I would think that Safari would want to stay competitive with the two biggies, Hotmail and Gmail, which must have large numbers of users.
I certainly would appreciate any other suggested fixes.

I can not get website to work with ShockWave

I don't know where to post this, but I need some help with it.
Back in 1997 I was using Director, which I no longer have. At that time I created a website that contained some interactive pages where I had used Director to create content the required using Shockwave.
I now have a MBP running system 10.6.2. I tried to open the pages in Safari and I get a dialog box telling me:
"Some content on the page can’t be shown because its MIME type is unspecified."
I downloaded Shockwave and Flash from Adobe, I restated my computer and still get the same message. I am not sure if ShockWave works with 10.6.2 or not.
I am wanting to get the content of the pages so that I can use them on something else. If I could open the interactive pages I might be able to copy and past them off the webpages. Or if I could open the files with some other program then I could recover the content. Recovering the content is my goal, not running the interactive files online.
Anyone have a suggestion?

HI,
It's possible (more like probable) the software you used to create the site isn't compatible with the latest version of Flash. I'm pretty sure why you are getting this... "Some content on the page can’t be shown because its MIME type is unspecified."
Go to the Adobe Director support area here...
http://www.adobe.com/products/director/
You can ask their customer service for suggestions so you can extract the data from your site.

Autofill in Google Toolbar does not appear to be working with Firefox 4 - Aways saying Autofill not available for this page even on pages I have used it before FF4 upgrade

Autofill in Google Toolbar does not appear to be working with Firefox 4 - It aways gives the message "Autofill not available for this page". This is happening on pages I have used Autofill on before upgrading to FF4 from Firefox 3.5.x

i did not see a solution posted - I tired what I read. Going back to an old version may solve the problem but it is a stupid solution so I have yet to do that.
I am on version 4 and autofil this does not work :

Uninstall version 5, then Google "google toolbar version 4", follow the link to FileHippo.com, and download and install the last version 4. When you reinstall it, make sure you turn off the option to perform automatic updates.

you say the iPhone originally was on contract with Orange UK. You will have
to work with Orange UK to get the iPhone unlocked.

How is my laptop working even though I spilled iced tea on it? The keyboard does not light up but works normally, and everything else seems to be in order!

how is my laptop working even though I spilled iced tea on it? The keyboard does not light up but works normally, and everything else seems to be in order! The front of the bottom is hot while the rest if mildly warm. I don't know if its going to have a problem in the future. I wiped off as much as I could with a cloth and left it open and upside down for 10-15 minutes. Any idea if I am in the clear?

Please make a Genius Appointment and take it in for service. Do not wait.

It sounds like you or someone else hacked the phone to unlock it. Updating it locked it to the original carrier.
How did you unlock it? The ONLY legitimate way is to ask the carrier it is locked to to unlock it. Any other way requires hacking or jailbreaking the phone.

My iPhone5 prompts while setting up "This iPhone is not currently setup to work with carrier you are attempting to use.Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier" or "Request that this iPhone be unlocked" How can I unlock my new iPhone5 ?

That means that the phone is locked to a carrier other than the one you are trying to use.
ONLY the carrier it is locked to can authorize unlocking it.
Where exactly did you get this "new" iPhone 5?

what does it mean?

Have a look in Settings>Carrier
Again YOU cannot unlock it - only the original carrier can do it

Sounds like you are trying to use an iPhone that is locked to a particular
wireless carrier with the sim from another wireless carrier. Contact the wireless
provider that the iPhone is locked to and ask if they offer unlocking and if
you qualify. Only the wireless carrier that the iPhone is locked to can unlock
it.
