Number lock acts like a laptop .....

Hi,
Odd problem only noticed recently, if I use number lock on my desktops keyboard the right side of qwerty keyboard acts like a number pad [laptop style!]
Of course I can just turn off number lock.....
Wondered if anyone else had noticed this? did a quick search on forums but nothing stands out

I suspect you have a 2G iPod. Those can only go to iOS 4.2.1. Many users thing that have a 3G when they really have a 2G iPod.
Identifying iPod models
iPod touch (3rd generation)
iPod touch (3rd generation) features a 3.5-inch (diagonal) widescreen multi-touch display and 32 GB or 64 GB flash drive. You can browse the web with Safari and watch YouTube videos with Wi-Fi. You can also search, preview, and buy songs from the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on iPod touch.
The iPod touch (3rd generation) can be distinguished from iPod touch (2nd generation) by looking at the back of the device. In the text below the engraving, look for the model number. iPod touch (2nd generation) is model A1288, and iPod touch (3rd generation) is model A1318.
Have y tried the following to resolve the button problem:
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
Apple will only give yo a 10% discount for recycling the old iPod

Number Lock Problem on Satellite Pro L20

We have about 60 Satellite Pro L20s on a network. When the user starts the computer sometimes they start with the number lock on. Its seems to be worse on some that others. This is very annoying as it causes problems with logons.
Is there any way of disabling the number lock function on these laptops?
Thanks
Mark

Hi
Your right, the num lock key can be switched on or off by using FN & F11, but I was wondering if there is a way to disable the num lock function entirely.
The problem is that on some of the laptops it is activated at switch on and on some it is not. This is causing problems as we are using windows 2000 network and some uses are becoming confused when they try to login and it fails as a result of having characters in their password that are shared with the number keys. They cannot tell that they are typing the wrong letters as they are obscured.
I appreciate that it is easy to switch off the num lock but as a technician it is creating unnecessary work for me with users repeatedly complaining.
Thanks

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Getting messages in wrong language and program acting like a trial version.

I just loaded Adobe Acrobat XI pro on a new laptop after uninstalling it from my old one. I keep getting a popup message in a differnet language that I believe is telling me I have so many days to buy it. I own it already and have provided the serial number for the product it had upgraded. How do I get those messages in english like the rest of the program? Why is it acting like a trial version?

Moving this discussion to the Acrobat Installation & Update Issues forum.

Samuel32_826,
If you have a virus you can run a system recovery to remove the virus.
The system recovery will remove everything on your computer including the virus and put the system back to day one. Just like when you opened it out of the box.
Here is a link that will walk you through the steps of the recovery.
Let me know how everything goes.

Mobile account setup stops syncing and acts like a network user

Mobile account setup stops syncing and acts like a network user system under ODM
Setup: Mobile laptop users authenticating against an ODM. Every user has a networked home directory on an Xserve. The whole setup is 10.4 (client and server). All systems run a standard image. Most effected systems have been re-imaged since the onset of the issue.
Issue: Some of the users are not syncing properly every time. It is as if the system forgets it is a mobile system and reverts to using the User's network home (instead of saving to /Users and syncing). If the user is effected, the system will not even accept cached credentials if they are off network. This forgetfulness does not seem to follow any pattern and does not effect all of our mobile users.
In mucking about trying to find a cause to this issue I ran across an oddity in all effected systems Netinfo database. The users are each listed twice. Each entry has the same username, short name and UID. Also, In each case one record looks wrong... this varies somewhat from user to user, but in each case there is marked difference in the record's contents. Deleting the incomplete record in Netinfo manager seems to solve the issue (seems, as we are very early in testing this).
Anyone have a clues as to where this double came from? The only lead so far is that it looks like the users having issues pre-date the use of mobile accounts. At some time they all had local accounts that authenticated against the ODM but never synced or had networked home directories. The pool of users who just got laptops (and thus never had a local account) seem unaffected so far.
Also, what is the best way to browse the ODM master to find these duplicates?

I have a similar issue with computers bound to Active Directory. Users occasionally have a problem logging into their computers even though their account is fine. Logging in as Admin and running netinfo manager always shows duplicate user accounts. Deleting the one that says disabled always clears up the issue. I'd like to find a startup script that would delete the disabled account, thus preventing the issue.

Yesterday iTunes worked - today, it acts like it's newly installed (won't show any of my music or playlists) - what could have made it forget everything it knew yesterday and how can I fix it without having to redo all my previous work?

The title says it all. iTunes was working fine last night. I added some more music to my playlists and synched my iPod last night, then shut down. Today, when I start iTunes it opens up a welcome to setup screen and acts like it wants me to answer questions to configure it for the first time. When I cancel out of that, it opens up a normal iTunes screen that's completely empty of music and has none of my custom playlists (all the playlists it does show are empty) and it's asking me if I want to have it search my PC and add media files, as if it's newly installed and that's never been done.
Has anybody seen this behavior before, and is there some simple way I can fix it so it remembers all the stuff it knew last night, without having to start all over again and rebuild all my playlists and stuff?

For general library squiffiness following an upgrade the easiest thing is to restore your last backup, but I guess if it were that simple you wouldn't be here.
Empty/corrupt library after upgrade/crash
Hopefully it's not been too long since you last upgraded iTunes, in fact if you get an empty/incomplete library immediately after upgrading then with the following steps you shouldn't lose a thing or need to do any further housekeeping. In the Previous iTunes Libraries folder should be a number of dated iTunes Library files. Take the most recent of these and copy it into the iTunes folder. Rename iTunes Library.itl as iTunes Library (Corrupt).itl and then rename the restored file as iTunes Library.itl. Start iTunes. Should all be good, bar any recent additions to or deletions from your library.
See iTunes Folder Watch for a tool to catch up with any changes since the backup file was created.
When you get it all working make a backup!

Textarea - create String that acts like a single character

Hi guys,
I am trying to create a string in a textarea that acts like a single character. By this, I mean that the user cannot edit the contents of that section of text. Here's an example:
Textarea text:
[Number of Iterations] * 35 / 200
I want the [Number of Iterations] to be read-only. In addition, if the user tries to delete the beginning or end of [Number of Iterations], the whole thing is deleted. If possible, I would like cursor operations to treat it like a single character as well (i.e. to go from |[Number of Iterations] to [Number of Iterations]| takes a single right button press).
Some commercial applications like Microsoft Word do this with Automatically created text in documents (like page numbers and date stamps) and I was wondering if I could do the same thing using a Textarea.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Steve

A JTextPane allows you to add components to the text pane. So you might be able to create a JLabel with your desired text and insert the label into the text pane.

Adobe air html/js - application act like a browser.

I just started in Adobe air html/js . In the current application I want to do something like this .
I want to open the urls/web pages in the application and application should act like a web-browser to them .
But with that I want to modify the opened pages a little, like add some css/js to them.
Something like when you open Web pages in Firefox and a plugin (example grease monkey scripts) modifies the displayed content .
Is it possible ?
I tried opening in iframe it works , but I cannot add my own JavaScript to the page (is there any way in air to remove cross domain strictness?).
Note: Please don't suggest that I fetch the html content of the page and add it to the app body. My app should really act as browser. (Adobe air is webkit based so I think it can be achieved)

Hi,
Thank you for reporting this. The internal bug number for the issue is #2740755. The issue is currently under review and will be investigated by one of AIR team members.

Catalin

The Pandora APP is installed on my iPhone5 & works fine except when I am in my new car that also has a Pandora APP. The car doesn't seem to recognize the phone so doesn't connect. My iPhone will act like it is playing Pandora as usual but there is no sound at all when I am in the car. What do I need to do?

Hello Mogulman46,
So what that means is when you have Do Not Disturb turned on, you may have an alert depending on the setting and how you are using your iPhone. So if it is set to Always, then that means that no matter what, your iPhone will not be notified. If it set to Only while the iPhone is locked, then that means that you will not get notification when your iPhone is locked but you will get notifications if your iPhone is being used. Also keep in mind the settings All Calls From can be set to certain contacts like Favorites, Everyone or no one. If you are using Do Not Disturb and you do not need it, then turn it off.
Use Do Not Disturb on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

I can't get my iMac to accept a CD/DVD disc. It acts like there's already one in there but there isn't. Tried the help menu but nothing worked.Suggestions?

I can't get my iMac to accept a CD/DVD disc. It acts like there's already one in there but there isn't. Tried the help menu but nothing worked.Suggestions?

Thank you, Allen. My iMac is a 2009. I can't shine a light into the disc drive slot as it has a built in whisker cover that prevents anything from getting in. It will accept a disc half way in before the disc reaches a springy obstruction.
About 3 weeks ago, the computer locked up so I inserted the OS disc and reinstalled it. In general, the computer works just like it used to but we've had a few quirks appear; for example, this is one of them. Also, we can't figure out how to keep from having to sign-in when we turn the computer on. Also, we can't access our one on-line account anymore. Very strange.
