My Number Symbol is not Appearing?!?

Why am I unable to type the number symbol aka the hashtag symbol at all on my IMAC 27? It doesn't work in any application. Thanks!

Yes, the 3 was working and after an hour with Apple Support it was determined to be a corrupted Adobe file that after filtering through all the many Libraries and deleting these adobe files, when we started up again, with fresh files from Adobe, it worked.  They did a start-up with just the Apple system and as a guest user and  it worked that is what told them it was a third party issue, perhaps a pre-mapped short cut key or simply a corrupted file.  Anyway, as usual, the apple support folks were very helpful.  This is why I always buy Apple Care as my problem solving is limited.
Thanks for your response.

I have tried to send it to my iphone 4S from my mac and also tried to send it from my iphone 4s to my wife's iphone 3gs. Each time the "@" sysmbol appears fine on the sent side but only shows as a "Space" on the reciving side.

  • In Apple mail, the attachment symbol does not appear in the list of sent items

    In Apple mail, the attachment symbol does not appear in the list of sent items. So you cannot sort sent emails based on whether or not they have an attachment. Is there a way to fix this?

    I think my question wasn't clear. I know how to display the attachment header (I use classic layout) but the problem is that the paperclip icon does not appear against the messages that contain attachments. See screenshot below. The attachment column is displayed but is blank. These are my sent items and I know for a fact that most of them have attachments. Can you help?

  • Secuirty lock symbols does not appear

    Recently the lock symbol which used to appear when accessing bank account sites, payment sites etc does not appear and Im concerned that my computer is at risk - has anyone else experienced this problem?

    In Firefox version 3.6+ the lock icon is in the Status Bar at the bottom of the Firefox window when you are on a secure site. You should become familiar with the Site Identity Button (see below) as the Status Bar will no longer exist in Firefox 4.
    The newer method of site security information is the '''Site Identity Button''' at the left end of the URL/Location/Address Bar; it changes color based on the "security level." See these articles:

  • Symbols Mysteriously Not Appearing on Export

    Hey guys,
    So I have this interesting little bug, not even sure if it's a bug... In my flash document, I created a movie clip symbol with a very large size and put it on my timeline, and tweened it around to get it to move so you can see the whole thing over time, right? When I play the movie on the timeline, it works fine, but for some reason when I export the movie the symbol doesn't all appear, like it's cut off.  The symbol itself is a series of imported psd images as well, so I'm not sure whether the bug is coming from the fact that the symbol is too large, or the fact that psd files aren't supposed to be handled like that.
    Is there any way I can get around this and get the symbols to show up on export?
    I am running Flash Pro CS5.5 on Windows 7.
    Thanks!
    ~Grits

    Surely it is too heavy for the flash player. If you are psd files, perhaps using transparencies, which makes it a heavier.

    Payment date issue has been solved. Insteed of Payment date I have considered "Net Due date"
    My second requirment is Check field in FBL1N.
    I have added table "PAYR" and field "CHECF" in (TC: O7R3), and the field is getting display in Layout.
    Also I have run the program "RFPOSXEXTEND" through SE38 and activated the extended structure.
    Afterthat I have changed the layout and added the field as per my requirement but still the data is not available in the field "CHECF".
    In FBL1N after selecting the vendor and clearing items when I excute the field is blank but when go to change layout and click "copy" and save the layout the data gets updated in the field but when again I refresh the section the data disapears.
    Please guide how to resolve this issue.

  • The lock symbol does not appear when I open a secure page in firefox 4.0. Has this been removed?

    Previously, using firefox 3.6.1, when I opened a secure or encrypted page, the lock icon appeared on that page.
    When I upgraded to firefox 4.0, the lock icon is no longer appearing when I open a secure page. Please confirm whether this has been removed or in the alternative whether there is a way to determine that the secure or encrypted page is indeed secure to use.

    In Firefox 4 you no longer have the Status bar that showed the padlock in previous Firefox versions.<br />
    The padlock only shows that there is a secure connection and doesn't guarantee that you are connected to the right server.<br />
    So you might still be connected to the wrong server if you make a typo in the URL and someone has claimed that mistyped URL.<br />
    The functionality of the padlock has been replaced by the [[Site Identity Button]] on the left end of the location bar.

  • Symbols do not appear

    I am unable to display any type of symbol (like alpha, beta, etc.), when either selected from the font list or copy/pasting from my computer's character map.
    Any suggestions or is this indeed a Designer problem?

    Easiest is to use the HTML entity code as shown in the first linked article.

    You need to have a font that supports those Unicode symbols like Symbola, found here:

  • The password save prompt box does not appear on logging in to certain password protected webpages; is there another way of adding their passwords to Firefox sync?

    Dear Firefox tech supporter,
    I am Currently running:
    Firefox v6.0.2;
    Windows 7 fully updated at 19 Sept 2011 15:45 GMT;
    Norton Internet Security 2011 (using Identity Safe) fully updated at same time as Windows 7;
    Extensions to Firefox-
    Norton Toolbar 2011.7.1.3;
    Symantec IPS 3.1;
    Add to Amazon Wish List Button 7.1;
    Minimap Addon 0.3.13
    Plugins
    The usual suspects from Microsoft, Adobe, Wacom, Apple and Google, all of which are checked and no updates currently found.
    With webpages such as <https://shop.avanquest.com/members/?company_rs=51>, PayPal and Windows Live e.g. after correct login details are entered into the online form and login is performed successfully. The "key" symbol does not appear to the left of the "awesome bar", neither does the password save pop up box and so the login details for the site cannot be saved in Firefox sync.
    This is not specific to https secure sites, as I have been able to save the passwords for several https secure sites and conversely, I have been unable to save the passwords for some http non secure URLs. I have ensured that, whilst trying to enter a page or site into Firefox sync, it has the only tab open.
    There does not seem to be a way of manually entering website details (URL, User Name, Password etc.) into Firefox Sync; how can I save the password details for such sites?
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Chris Morris

  • I changed my AppleID/Password and now am locked out of iCloud. iCloud says maximum number of free accounts have been activated. tried Settings, Mail etc but iCloud does not appear. I was going to delete it and start again.

    Had to change Apple ID/Password recently now cannot access iCloud. In settings when tapping iC, log in screen appears with old ID and request for (old) password.
    In Settings  Mail, Contacts etc iCloud does not appear. I was going to delete account.
    Trying new ID/Password message appears "maximum no. of free accounts have been activated".
    Using old ID/Password message apperas "you can,t sign in because account was disabled for security reasons ......reset password at iforgot.apple.com which i did.
    Can anybody help please??

    Hi,
    I tried to log in to iCloud but a message appears telling me I "can't sign in because my account was disabled for security reasons....reset password at iforgot.apple.com". I don't know why this happened.
    I reset both my Apple ID and password.
    When I tap Settings iCloud is listed on the left side between General and Mail, Contacts etc.
    Tapping iCloud brings up a log in screen for iCloud which shows my old Apple ID and requests the password. If I put the password in I get the message as above.
    If I use the new Apple ID/Password I get the message "the maximum number of free accounts have been activated....
    In settings there is no option to "Delete Account"
    Any suggestions??
