MacBook 2ghz... no middle row of keys=no fan
I've had my macbook for about 2 years I guess. It has recently stated acting up. Not too long ago the middle row on my keyboard stopped working. (asdfghjkl) I shut the computer down and restarted it about 1/2 hour later. The keyboard functioned properly again. Then after about 10 minutes it happened again, I lost the middle row of keys. I realized then that the fan wasn't working. I didn't get the apple care protection (never had probs with my other macs) and the 1 year warranty is up.
I've read that the macbooks have two fans... is this true and if so, what would make both fans stop functioning at the same time?
If it's software related, is there a patch?

Have you launched Software Update? It should download all the latest update. Else, it sounds like your SMC might be out of whack.

Macbook keyboard middle row takes a while to "warm up".....
Hey folx.... I have a problem with my keyboard. when I first turn on my Macbook it seems to need to "warm up". The middle row of keys from 'A' to 'L' won't work if it is a moderately cold day, and as the battery warms up the computer, the middle row of keys start to respond, the 'L' key is first, then the 'K' key, back all the way to the 'ASD' keys, which take the longest. This only seems to happen on days that aren't warm. As I'm heading into winter, I wonder whether the keyboard will work at all if it is, say, snowing..... this sometimes takes half an hour for the 'A' key to work..... Any ideas would be appreciated... Oh, my macbook is about 3 months old.... Thanx
This sounds like a loose connection to the keyboard. The heat is causing the metal to expand and to make the connection. This should be fixed while the MacBook is still under warranty. Don't leave it, because it may get worse and you'll lose the middle row completely.

Middle row keys on keyboard stop responding....
Hello,
Has anyone experienced the middle row of keys (A through L) on an iBook G4 stop responding? This seems to happen if I have been using the G4 iBook for a little while (maybe 30 minutes but not consistent) but sometimes shorter than other times. At the moment, it seems totally fine but sure enough, I'll be in the middle of something and I can no longer type.
Does anyone know what may be happening here? I have not spilt any liquid into the keyboard and it is always fairly clean.
Thanks in advance for any help...
Cheers,
Vincenzo.Hi Vincenzo,
Has anyone experienced the middle row of keys (A through L) on an iBook G4 stop responding?
The way a keyboard works is via a matrix see:
http://tinyurl.com/2gtmom
Now I haven't seen a schematic of an iBook keyboard but it works in a similar manner.
So when you see a whole line of keys go out then one of the main traces must go bad. In this case say A9 goes bad you'd lose that whole line of keys.
So in your iBook I'd pull the keyboard and look for:
Bad/dirty connector.
Broken cracked trace on the flex cable from the connector to the keyboard. Use a strong backlight and a magnifier and see if there are any cracks especially in the places where it's folded. If you find any they could possibly be repaired using conductive trace paint (hard to find and expensive) or rear window heater repair paint (cheap automotive store). You'd need to get it between the laminations of the flex cable. Syringe or incision?

Right shift key not working with middle row of letters
The right shift key on my Macbook Pro does not work with the middle row of letters. It works with all other letters and numbers, just not A-L. Nothing out of the ordinary happened, it just stopped capitalizing
Try resetting your SMC and PRAM.

If that does not work, test it using an external keyboard.

Entity row with key oracle.jbo.Key is not found in EO
Hi,
We are using jDev 11.1.1.5.0.
I am facing the issue Entity row with key oracle.jbo.Key is not found in my entity object.
I have EO based VO and I am performing some operations on the VO. Based on user actions on UI, I need delete some records of the entity and I am using stored proc to delete those records and committing the changes in stored proc it self. After invoking stored procedure I am committing the changes performed in UI using ADF bindings.
While invoking Commit from ADf I getting below error

Please let me know if you have any pointers to resolve this.
Thanks,
SatyaWhere you are calling stored procedure which deletes records in the DB ?
Try to override doDML() i your entity impl, as follows:
protected void doDML(int operation, TransactionEvent e) {
if(operation == DML_DELETE)
call_your_storedProc_here();
else
super.doDML(operation, e);
Also, ensure that the procedure deletes the same set of records as well you in the middle tier. -
Shift not working with top and bottom rows of keys
I have an odd thing happening with my Macbook. I tried making a new account, but that didn't fix it. The problem is that when typing, the top rows of keys QWERTYUIOP and the bottom row of letters ZXCVBNM don't type anything when you combine them with the shift key. I'm not sure what happened to cause this or what to do to troubleshoot it. Any ideas would be appreciated.
Any time that you force Windows to stop instead of letting it shut down normally (sometimes you have to shut it off), you may have lost clusters of data that interfere with the proper operation of Windows. So I suggest you start up and run scandisk and make sure you check the box for fixing problems. The other box doesn't need to be checked unless you suspect bad sectors on the hard drive and it takes a long time so I recommend only checking the one box for finding and fixing errors.
Let us know if this worked and the problem is fixed.
Good luck. -
How to find middle row in a table ?
Hi Friends,
Is it possible to find middle row in a table by SQL Query.
KarTiK.Solution: sort the rows in order to create an ordered
sequence and then there will be a "middle row".Well, not quite.
If there are an odd number of rows then, yes, there will be a middle row in an ordered sequence, however if there is an even number of rows then the middle is between two rows... or... you could take it as the two rows either side of the middle....

JBO-25019: Entity row of key null not found even though key filled in??
Hi All,
I'm using jdev 10.1.2, adf bc's and jsp's.
I have a view object derived from 2 entity objects, which the user is allowed edit. It's a standard adf edit. Even though the key fields are filled in i keep getting this error when the page is submitted... "JBO-25019: Entity row of key null not found in Milk. " where milk is one of the entities
I've checked that the fields are bound, which they are. I created a test method in the app module where i got the current row (i.e. the row i'm editing) and got the key values no problem. I've created the page again, same problem.
This problem occurs in another edit page which uses the same view object. I've other edit pages which use different view objects, but who are based on the same entities and there is no problem.
i cannot understand why. I have tried creating the view object again and creating a new edit page but i still get the same error.
I can't understand why this is happening. If anyone could help, i'd be really grateful.
Thanks in advance,
newbe.I take your point about not all databases support triggers.
However I am not using DBSequence...the above is a bug surely.For non-oracle SQLBuilders, if RETURNING clause is not supported by the DB in insert/update DML, then to perform refresh-on-insert/update BC4J calls the corresponding entity's doRefreshSQL() method. The javadoc says:
if refresh-on-insert or update setting is set on an attribute which
is a primary key attribute, then this method will fail to fetch the entity as the primary key
in the databse for the equivalent row would have potentially changed. If that's true,
then subclasses need to implement this method and perform "custom" sql to fetch the refresh-attrs
based on some unique criteria for this entity. -
I have a 2008 Macbook 2GHz 2GB that initially ran on Snow Leopard, and I upgraded it to Lion about 6 months ago. Since the upgrade, it has become slow to start up, open programmes and regularly stops responding - especially when I'm on the Internet - leaving me with the processing colourwheel, and forcing me to turn it off by the button.
I have tried repairing permissions and it doesn't seem to make a difference, could it just be that I don't have enough RAM (only 2GB) to run Lion? I don't want to revert back to Snow Leopard because I sync my laptop with my phone using iCloud, and Snow Leopard would complicate that.
I have also noticed that it heats up especially quickly and gets very hot, although I'm not sure if this problem is related or something to do with the version of Adobe or Microsoft Silverlight that I run on my Macbook.
Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks a lot!Honestly I would never run both Win 7 & XP at the same time in a VM. 7 needs at least 4GB to run properly and uses more resources then XP.
I personally use VMware Fusion and XP. At this time there is no software, that I'm aware of or use, that does not run on XP. So for my Mac Win VM purpose I only run XP with the software in need to use in Windows. This work very well for me. I have 2 CPUs and 3GBs of RAM assigned to XP. Leaving the other 2 CPU cores, 4 HT cores, and 5GBs of RAM for OS X.
Not sure why you need, or want, to run both versions of Windows at the same time. I don't see the need as stated above. -

My Macbook Pro (bought in 2013) function keys are not working
My Macbook Pro (bought in 2013) function keys are not working. The function keys ie the volume and brightness are not working at all both with one single tap and with the function button. I have checked the settings for the keyboard but nothing seems to stand out that is making the keys not work?
Please can you help?
Thanks
KatSome might suggest resetting the SMC, but I don't really think that will solve the problem. You can try, though.
I would suggest, since you're still under warranty, taking your machine to your local Apple Store/AASP and letting them fix the problem. It could be any sort of hardware problem. Only the Apple techs have the tools to properly diagnose and repair the machine.

Problem during Add row in View Object : View Row of Key Not found
Hello,
I'm facing this problem during insert of new row in the view object. I'm having 2 entities that belong to the same DB table (I need this because one is required with the composition assoc and the other one without it).
I have three tables, COMPANY, USERS and PRIVILEGES.
Company (1) to USERS (N)
USERS (1) to PRIVILGES (N)
While adding users for a specific company , i get this error msg.
P.S: I'm not getting this error, if i add company, then user. Only if i directly add users i'm getting this error.

once again thanks for ur reply.
as my vo are based on procedure, i know that i can't update the table using them.
i only wanted to insert the rows in the vo and show it to user (only for selection purpose).
Now my problem is sorted as i have changed the code like this-
Row new_row=vo1.createRow();
new_row.setAttribute(index,vo2.getAttribute(index)) ;
vo1.insertRow(new_row);
Earlier i was only inserting a new row, without creating any row.
Thanks a lot. -

While they certainly don't make it clear, if you actually select the link on CNET, it's only an update file (Office2011-1434UpdateEN.dmg) which is listed on Microsoft's site:
