Letter "O" followed by slash shows up as "Ø"

Why is it that every time I type the letter "O" followed by a slash ("/") I get "Ø"? Is this a new dead-key combo? I know that OS X will automagically change "f-f-i" into the "ffi" ligature (which is nice), but this is really driving me nuts!!

You could experiment a little.
Assuming your current keyboard layout is US (System Preferences > International), change it to UK. Is the problem still there?
Disable US keyboard completely, uncheck the checkbox next to it. Enable it again. Is the problem still there?
Create a new account on your machine. Does the new user have the same problem?

  • What do I do when my iTunes library won't let me delete a TV show?

    I was downloading a TV show in HD and then realised that I could get it in SD, which is preferable to me. Through reading someone else's posting, I now know how to download the SD version, but my library is refusing to let me delete the ones that were already downloaded. Any suggestions?

  • OS X Mavericks won't let me view a slide show on PPT

    I upgraded my Mac to the OS X Mavericks few days ago. But, now I'm having issues with my PowerPoint slide show. When I click to view a slide show, my screen completely turns black. Also, I found my laptop to be slow and freezing at sometimes. I read that I have to update my Microsoft Office to the 14.1.0 , and for some reason it does not allow me upgrading it. When I click to instal the upgrade it stops in the middle of the process saying that I'm missing something. Please help I'm very new to Mac!

    Hi
    A Restart is the only option you have left really. Pressing the power on button on the front panel does a graceful (non destructive) restart/shutdown of the mac. Whatever you do don’t yank out the power cable, you could potentially shock the drives and damage/lose your data.
    Why 10.4.1? I would update as soon as you can to at least 10.4.8. 10.4 Server had some major problems until the 10.4.4 update stabilized things.
    Hope this helps, Tony

  • Can't get ping's "Follow Me" to show up and go to

    I've chosen "follow me" on ping, but the person's playlist won't come up so Ican download their music.

    Toolbar extensions are installed to the user account / Profile, they're not installed globally. You need to install them separately to each user account / Profile.
    If you know your way around in the Windows Explorer file system, you can drop an extension into the program files Firefox\extensions\ folder and the extension will be installed globally - as each Profile is launched. Right-click the installation button for extensions an use Save Link As... to save the extension to local disk.

  • ITunes won't let me copy a TV show to iPod Classic

    Hi,
    I can't copy a TV show to my iPod using either the sync or manual method. Some other TV shows work fine, but not the file I want to copy! When I try to drag the file from my TV show library onto the TV Shows folder on the iPod, the file just "snaps" back and won't actually copy.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks,
    GLenn

    FIgured it out: the file was in HD format and the iPod Classic cannot play HD files. Downloading the SD version now...

  • TS3297 "itunes store is temporarily unavailable.  please try again later"  I have gotton this erroe since yesterday and no matter what steps I follow, same error shows up.  what to do ???????

    "Itunes store is temporarily unavailable.  Please try agin later"  This is all I am getting since yesterday.  All I am trying to do is buy a song.  Tried different stops to no avail. 

    Hello fedupwiththisgovno,
    I found a couple of articles that might help with the issue you are experiencing with the iTunes Store.
    If you are getting a white screen when accessing the iTunes Store, I recommend reviewing this article:
    Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4123
    If you are still not able to access the store or are getting a different error than just a white screen, I recommend the following article:
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • Comments secton of iTunes 10.4 won't let me paste my podcast show notes

    I have created over 300 episodes of my podcast, and have always put my show notes in the comments section of iTunes, where they become embedded into the podcast mp3 file. But with this latest version of iTunes (10.4) when I try to paste my show notes into comments, I get an error tone. Nothing will paste in. It will allow me to type a short entry, but not nearly as many characters as previous versions allowed.
    Has anyone else experienced this problem? Is there a new method we are supposed to use in order to add our show notes to an audio file?

    The entire editing interface seems to have been messed with in the latest update.  Running the latest iTunes 10.4 (updated yesterday) but still with Snow Leopard on a 2 year old MacBook.  Can copy and paste, but the autofill from previous data already in the library no longer functions, and the tab key no longer moves you to the next column.  Also, the mouse's ability to highlight portions of the data doesn't seem to work quite right.  It takes two mouse clicks to start highlighting from the location of the cursor, instead of click/hold/highlight (if you can tell what I mean).
    Don't even get me started on the update changing my default library location!

  • Follow up activity shows different priority

    Hi,
    we are using CRM5.0 after the creation of a service ticket with priority High , we create a service order as a follow up but this service order is created with a priority as medium always.
    what settings can be done such that the follow up also holds the same priority as the service ticket.
    Regards
    Prathiba

    Hi
    I think settings for service order header in spro are responsible for default priority.
    You should work with some copy badis, but there is a lot of work searching for appriopriate method.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:

  • Won't let me buy movies or shows...?

    So, whenever I try to buy a show or movie on iTunes, it tells me that I need to upgrade it, then takes me to a page where all it says is "Upgrade to the latest version of iTunes" then has a "Free Upgrade" button, and whenever I click the button, nothing happens? I've re-downloaded iTunes off of apple.com twice to see if that would work, and I've done a software update and it doesn't say it needs to be upgraded, so how do I fix it? :\

    I think you are in the wrong place to get help with your problem.

  • Sxmb_moni shows the returning string as a big string of letter 'A'

    Hello Friends
    I am using the following scenario
    An outside application sends a huge variable string of data via XI using SOAP adapter.  XI inturn using RFC and a ZBAPI writes this into a table.
    On the table side I am using the datatype 'VARILRAW' and it gets saved successfully without any error. However, because of the property, I can not go and see if the data in the table is correctly saved.
    So I have written another ZBAPI to send the data back to the appliation, where I can check to see if the data string is the same that I sent.
    However, instead of sending the same string back, it is sending a huge string of 'AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA...',
    I went and checked the sxmb_moni and it shows the string that is coming in as correct string as expected. But the returning string is a huge string of letter As. (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAaaaaa).
    Can some one please show me where I am going wrong? I would really appreciate it.
    Thanks
    Ram

    hi ram,
    even we faced the same problem.
    we used to get the data from .NET application and we found that ascill values are not the same.
    for example if they are sending letter "X" it's being taken as some other letter which is not equivalent to letter "X".
    in SXMB_MONI it shows the same letter "X" but while processing it takes something diff.
    for us the solution worked when we changed the case of the letter as it was coming as small "x" we made it as CAPITAL "X".
    then the processing was correct.
    really speaking dont know how the character conversions takes place behind the screen.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • When I type o followed by a slash, it renders as o with a slash through it.

    Every time I type the letter o followed by a slash, it renders as an o with a slash through it, o/, like the Danish letter.

    Sounds that you use a font that supports ligatures.
