Mail - error from certain keys

After upgrading to 10.4.5 I have the following symptoms in mail.app
Typing into a new email only works for the letter keys. If I hit space bar or return the cursor leaves the text pane. Clicking the cursor back in place with the mouse I can start typing again until I hit a non letter key and then the cursor disappears again.
It appears that this only happens in Mail. I've tried typing in other applications and everything works as expected.
I've not idea what would cause a problem like this so I've gone through:
Repair permissions
Cache cleaning
by running cocktail.
I downloaded the combo 10.4.5 and installed the update again.
Nothing worked.
Can anyone suggest a possible cause and solution for this type of problem.
This is occuring on G4 hardware.
Thanks

This was finally resolved by:
1. Turning off "Spell Check as you type", this removed the stuttering problem.
2. After attempting many things including reinstalling the app, it appears that cleaning the system cache with Tiger Cache Cleaner <http://www.northernsoftworks.com/> solved the problem.
I was then able to enable the spell checking and there was no stuttering.

  • When composing mail in Gmail, certain key combinations cause menus to open or new documents to be created?

    While typing "sh" or "th" etc combinations menu's open on their own. The history menu comes up with "sh". When "th" is used, it opens a new document. Very bothersome. How do I disable this?

  • When I turn on my MacBook pro, I get the 'macintosh he's symbol. Then, at my login, certain keys (I,e,u) get an error sound, and I can't log in. Anyone know what's up?

    Oh, I'm on my phone because if the problem, so I put the whole question in the title. But, the  problem is that my computer acts like I've got the alt key down   I start up, and gives me an error sound when I hit certain keys (e i, u, and a few othes) so I can't log in. Help?

    You showed a kernel panic file from OS X, apprantly Log Me In is installed into OS X or running when you log in.
    You should be using the developers installer/unistaller to remove Log Me In from OS X.
    Somehow it's in OS X, I don't know, but it's there and you need to remove it. I'm not dealing with Windows, just OS X.
    Talk to Log Me In people and find out what is installed where so you can do a manual deletion out of OS X.
    If that doesn't work, you have to reboot holding the Shift key down manually search for any Log Me In or Himachi files on your computer, in your System/Library/Extensions folder too, use the free Easy Find.

    I have the same problems... And I tried hard to follow your explanations but I did not manage to get it all sorted... Especially the hint "finally resolved it..." ..."because some tables where missing" didn't help me too much...
    Can you help please?
    The problem:
    I would like to write some programs but I get the error I need a developer id. Therefore I read all the topics about getting a license and the developer key and got the email containing the following:
    "Your Hardware key      : P1297367619

    "Invalid license key"
    I am stuck. What do I need to check, do ?
    I am a SAP newbie so please give me directions...

  • Yoga 3 Pro - Certain Keys Missing from Keyboard. How to virtually use them?

    Hi.
    I have bought this for about a week and was not happy about the combination of "Home" and "End" keys since I use them a lot. In using VMWare I noticed there is no "Insert" key on the keyboard at all, thus I cannot use the Ctrl+Alt+Insert functionality in my virtual machines. Today, a random combination of keys was pressed on the keyboard and the "Scroll Lock" was enabled, and guess what: There is no scroll lock in the Yoga 3 Pro! Now I have no idea how to disable this again and non of the forums or manuals have addressed this.
    (Lenovo design team has made is specifically hard for users. Not only the keyboard layout and certain keys are removed, but even I cannot find a spare chargin cable for my officec. They have changed everything - even Yoga 2 Pro charging cable is not compatible - and yet not available in the market. Not a very smart strategy )
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Welcome to the forum!
    I'm sorry to hear about your problem. I had to really take a look at my own Y3P to realize there is no Insert key, I guess I got too used to the touchscreen 
    To get rid of the Scroll Lock you can press the combination Fn+C.
    Alternatively you can also go to the Control Panel, then "Easy of Access Center" and start the On-Screen Keyboard, you can disable the Scroll lock from there too.

  • View incoming mail from certain user, Terminal

    Is there a way to view logs of both received and rejected emails coming into our mail server from a certain address to a certain user.
    We are still having a problem with one person sending us emails, and I know that at one point the other tech (Who is unavailable due to health reasons right now) had shown me a list of emails, dates and times from a certain email address.
    I have not been able to find anything in our server logs that look like they would cause any trouble. So I want to know where else I can look for something like this.
    Any and all help is appreciated.
    FYI, she send me the Delivery failure notices, but I know that other emails came in around the same time so our server was up and running.
    Subject: Delivery Status Notification (Failure)
    The following message to <[email protected]> was undeliverable.
    The reason for the problem:
    5.4.7 - Delivery expired (message too old) 'timeout'

    We have had some strange problems today. A few emails from Feb 12 just decided to show up in peoples mail boxes (Mine included, from the same lady that was having problems the other day).
    One of our employees sent some PDF attachments to Toronto, they showed up as gibberish. When she forwards them to me, they are fine.
    Rebooted the Mail server just in case. Too many 'weird' things today. Now off to deal with the issue of 2 of our raids each having one failed drive, and one degraded drive. Is it Monday or something????

  • I have accidentally deleted my IMAP password from my key chain, therefore i can no longer access my emails using mail.  I can access my email through my Gmail account no problem, so how do i fix this as i cannot remember my IMAP password.

    I have accidentally deleted my IMAP password from my key chain, as a result i cannot access my google email using the Mac Mail.  I cannot remember what the password was for IMAP, so can anyone help to resolve this.  i can access my mail by going directly to Google Mail.
    Regards JKG1135

    The password for use in the Mail application would be the same password you use when accessing Gmail by using an internet browser. The exception to that would be if you have 2-step verification enabled for Gmail. If that is the case then you would need to use an "application-specific password." If you are using 2-step, you can revoke the previous application-specific password and get a new one as described in https://support.google.com/mail/answer/1173270?hl=en

    I'm sure someone will give more detail, but it looks like the server blocked your address because it thinks it's a spam source.  If you're not spamming, then it might be someone on the same network spamming, or malware on your computer doing it.  Or it could just be a mistake.  try calling whoever runs your mail server and see if they can give you more information.

    Hello WayneSchlapkohl,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand that you are looking to Email a scanned photo, but do not want the file to be to large. Are you using HP software when you get the error "not connected to the internet" ? If so, What is the Operating System installed, Windows, including version, e.g. Windows 7 or Mac, including version, e.g. 10.8?
    Lowering the DPI or resolution will help keep the file size down, if you have an option for that in the software.
    Also, what is the Email client are you using, MSN, Gmail, etc?
    Cheers,
    JERENDS

    Hi,
    I recently (over this past summer) updated my phone and plan with Verizon.  I'm from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, and I got the phone in Pittsburgh.  It is a Droid Eris and very nice.  I got it and a month later I moved to Olympia, Washington for school.  Since moving there, I have hardly been able to use it.  The service is terrible and its been impossible to keep in touch with my family, I wasn't even able to call them over Thanksgiving.  I'm also having to pay extra money so I can use the internet on my phone, but I can't even access the internet let alone make phone calls.  It's really frustrating.  I can't use my phone to keep in touch with everyone in Pittsburgh-and if I am ever in trouble I wouldn't be able to call for help, which makes me really nervous.  Is there a way I can cancel my 2yr contract?  Yes.  Just visit a Verizon store, or dial *611 from your phone and let them know you would like to cancel your account.  Would I have to pay a fee-and how much would that cost? Yes, Verizon no longer waives ETFs due to moving to an area without service, so you will probably have to pay an Early Termination Fee.  Since you have a smartphone, it will probably be $350 less $10 for each month of service you have completed.  The Customer Service rep you contact about cancelling will be able to tell you the exact amount.  Would I have to go to the Verizon store I bought the phone from to do this or would I have to do this in Washington-where I am now living and having the problems? You can do it over the phone, or at a corporate Verizon store.  Help!
