Problem with google and keyboard

Hi everybody. I am new to the forum and to the ipad. I have an iPad 2 and I am wondering if this is a problem. When I bring up google it comes up fine but when I tap on the box to enter text, the keyboard comes up and then imediately retracts. Is anybody having this problem.
Thanks
Kim

I just ran into this problem in my new app. I have a view I display as a modal view. This view contains a single text field that I attempt to make the first responder.
If the modal view is displayed with animation the keyboard displays properly when 'becomeFirstResponder' is called on the text field. But, if the modal view is displayed without animation, the keyboard does NOT appear. No user interaction can make the keyboard appear.
Luckily I found a simple solution. I don't call 'becomeFirstResponder' in the 'viewDidLoad' method anymore. Instead I have the following code for 'viewDidAppear':
- (void)viewDidAppear:(BOOL)animated {
if (!animated) {
[txtField resignFirstResponder];
[txtField becomeFirstResponder];
This makes the keyboard show as expected whether the modal view was displayed with or without animation.
What's really weird is that in either case the 'viewDidAppear' method is getting called twice each time it appears. Why not once?

  • Firefox is having problems with google and google calendars

    Two things: can't keep two separate google accounts functioning, one being their calendar used by a client to which we have access (client A), and the other a gmail inbox (client B).
    The two accounts are unrelated but accessed from the same computer. When trying to refresh after appt setting for client A, google defaults to client B's calendar and logs me out of their gmail account.
    Second hassle, incoming messages to the gmail inbox activates the scroll bar and takes me to the bottom of whatever page I am viewing on the net, or if I'm typing an email hangs the machine so I can't use the keyboard or swap between tabs.
    I also have trouble with plugins so wonder where the problem lies?

    Is it a safe assumption that website is your's? <br />
    What difference does it make which browser '''''you''''' use? Isn't your website for client's or potential clients?
    That said, I don't have a problem with that web page on Firefox 2.0.0.20, 3.0.19, 3.5.16, 3.6.13, or the 4.0b9 nightly - it looks the same as in IE8 on 32-bit WinXP SP3, with an AMD 64-bit processor.
    The problem shown in your screenshot is with your own Firefox installation. It's like all the "styling" is turned off.
    ''''' "I infer Firefox needs a 64 bit version." ''''' <br />
    What good is a 64-bit browser without 64-bit plugins? <br />
    Adobe still hasn't released a 64-bit version of Flash, although they do have a "preview" version available. <br />
    http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/000/6b3af6c9.html
    ''BTW, Mozilla does have a Windows 64-bit version of the Firefox 4.0 betas that is being tested now, but it is not going to be released in Jan / Feb when Firefox 4.0 is released. It will probably be released later in 2011 with one of the 4.# versions, I suspect right after Adobe has a 64-bit Flash release version.''

  • Problem with becomeFirstResponder and keyboard

    Hi all,
    I wonder why on its first call, my (modal) view controller works fine and the UITextField receives the 'becomeFirstResponder' message, has focus (i.e. the call does work!) but keyboard is not shown!!
    Has anyone experienced this?
    In subsequent calls when this view controller is showed, text field shows keyboard.

  • Problem with rotation and keyboard click sound

    Ok, there's still a problem with the rotation and keyboard click sound and I thought I had the problem fixed.
    It's a serious bug when you want the keyboard click sound enbabled without having the rotation locked. I noticed this bug started when I had the previous iosinstalled 7.0.6.
    Everytime I wanted to enable the keyboard click sound, I have to always go to settings and have lock rotation checked. And it would stay locked.
    If I wanted to rotate my iPad, I have to have mute enabled, but no keyboard click sound.
    I know it sounds confusing. I'm already confused... beh.

    I completely forgot about that.
    Thank you!

  • Problem with Battery and Keyboard Light

    First off, sorry if this is in the wrong section. This is my first time on these forums.
    Just today I was skyping my girlfriend on my Macbook Pro (that I got in the summer or 2010). I have SmcFanControl installed and I regularly use it to monitor/increase my fan speed. As I regularly skype and play WoW on this computer, my computer temp often sits around 160-170 degrees F.
    Today it was at around 170 and I had it on my lap. I sat up and jostled the computer a little and it shut off. The power cord light, which was green, immediately turned off. I tried unplugging it and plugging it back in and it stayed off. The computer wouldnt restart for about 30 seconds. Finally after hitting the power button several times it turned on.
    It worked fine for 10 or so minutes. I assumed I just moved it too suddenly, although I have never had a problem with that before. Then, I moved again and it shut off AGAIN. It took another 30 seconds to register the power cord and to turn on.
    This time, when it booted up, it said my clock was set to a date before 2008, althought it was still at Feb 16, 2011. Also, as soon as I turned it on, the fans were going full speed (as loud as when i have SmcFanControl set at 6200 rpm). I opened SmcFancontrol and it says my computer's temp is at 32 Degrees F and 000 rpm, which I know is not correct. I can't change the speed of the fans and the temp of the computer hasnt changed at all.
    Also, my battery icon has an X through it and says "No batteries available" "Power Source: Power Adapter." The green light is very dim on the charger.
    AND on top of this, my keyboard lights no longer turn on, even pushing F5 and F6. I am in a dim room so they should auto turn on.
    I am afraid that I may have overheated the computer, but I was wondering if anyone has any advice. I was thinking of opening the back up but I dont have a small enough screwdriver at the momment. I also tried doing the "top -u -s3" command to check cpu% and my highest one is Firefox around 10-15%.
    Any help would be appreciated. I'm thinking this is gonna require a look at the Apple Store, however I am an out of state college student and I'm not returning home for another week and I need my computer for assignments.
    Sorry for the wall of text. Thanks in advance.
    P.S. My computer is up to date.

    SMC reset works best with anything that relies on power for the machine. When it comes to batteries SMC reset and PRAM usually do the trick. Also a lot of people miss this, do not plug on the top plugs use the lower plug.
    As for the temperature on the lap, expect a lot of heat, the computers are designed to lay on flat SOLID surfaces. The underbelly on aluminum chassis laptops act as a heatsink. In addition the rubber feet keep the product high enough so air can pass through and help cool the system.
    As far as the adapter you can have AppleCare send you without waiting a week for it. If it is an obvious hardware problem they may do an exception for you if you are out of phone support. Highly recommend APP for the phone support. You would have a battery on it's way to your current location in a couple days!

  • Problem with trackpad and keyboard on Macbook Pro

    Hello,
    I have a Macbook Pro Early '09 (I got it about 1 month ago used) and yesterday a problem occurred. Suddenly, as I was typing a message, the keyboard stopped responding and the trackpad started acting up. Whenever I tapped with 1 finger, it would mark the text or would show the right-click options ("Copy, Cut, Paste" etc on text or "New Folder" etc on desktop).
    I restarted it thinking that it would probably solve the problem, but then I couldn't even log in, because not all keys were working, so I couldn't enter the password. Pressing "O" seemed to work -not always though-, but other keys didn't. I logged in as guest user, since no password is required for that, and tried typing a URL on Google Chrome, just to see what happens. there I noticed that sometimes the F letter key would work as right arrow and A as left.
    I should finally note that certain applications would not open lately (for the past weeks) and would "quit unexpectedly" (HDRtist and Inkscape, to be specific). 
    So, maybe it needs a Disk Utility Repair? Is it possible that this would solve both problems? But how do i do that if I can't log in as admin?
    It would be better to find a way to solve this on my own without having to pay for the repair.
    Any ideas?
    I know it's a common problem and that it's been posted many times, but most answers on other discussions have confused me so far.
    I've read about the tape under the battery thing, but I'd prefer a different solution if anyone can offer one.
    Thank you in advance. I appreciate it.

    I have read of people saying Resetting SMC fixes stuck touchpad drag problems. In order to do this you must typically remove the battery.  I think it was the act of battery removal that fixed it and not the act of clearing SMC memory.
    If your Macbook battery is removable and is located directly under your touchpad a bloated swollen battery could be the problem. 
    Try this:
    Remove battery
    Connect to magsafe power and boot up. 
    Try using your touchpad
    If this fixes the problem you likely have a swollen or bloated lithium battery.  My symptoms on my 15" late 2008 Macbook Pro were that the touchpad acted like it was stuck in drag mode.  The bottom left and right touchpad switches would not click or took great effort to press. I had to hit the touchpad very hard for a mouse click to be recognized.  It also screwed up opration of my bluetooth mouse. I noticed several months earlier the battery cover no longer closed tightly; there was a gap.   I should have been more curious as to why.

    "Battery bloat or “swollen batteries” is a common occurrence among older lithium ion batteries. It is commonly caused by overcharging a battery and then leaving it unused for a long time. It may also be caused by extreme changes in temperature. More often than not, battery bloat essentially “kills” the battery, rendering it unusable or unsafe for further use."

  • Printing Problem with Google and Yahoo Driving Directions using Safari

    I am running Safari 4.0.2 on an iMac running Mac OS X 10.5.8. When I try to print Driving Directions from Google or Yahoo Maps, I see the text (and map) completely rendered in the print preview, but the print out does not include the text content for the Directions. The map is OK. Print out includes the lines and graphics from the Directions page but the text areas are blank. I am printing on an HP DJ 5500. MapQuest Driving Directions print out completely. But I can't get the text in the Directions section to print for Google or Yahoo even though it looks fine in the print preview. Has anyone had this issue? What can be done to resolve it?

    Hi,
    running Safari 4.0.2 on an iMac running Mac OS X 10.5.8.
    You need to update Safari. You should be running Safari 5.0.3
    Click the Apple () menu (top left in your screen) then click: Software Update ...
    And go to ~/Library/Preferences. Move the com.apple.print.PrintingPrefs.plist file to the Trash.
    Restart your Mac after the update is installed.

  • Yoga Tablet 10" - update to Android 4.4 and further problems with Google Music

    Hi everyone.
    I've just upadated my Yoga Tablet 10" to Android 4.4. Whole process went smoothly but afterwards I'm experiencing some problems with Google Music. Playback is "skippy" or "choppy", even if whole song is downloaded. Every 15-25 seconds there small pause, which is quite annoying.
    Local music files (uploaded through usb) seem to work just fine.
    I've even tried resetting whole device to factory settings but without any success.
    I also have an impression that youtube playback is not so smooth as it used to be in Android 4.2...
    Has anyone experienced something similar? Any hints or sollutions?

  • 10.6.8 Upgrade Problems with Google Display Error post install

    Hi -- I just upgraded my IMac to 10.6.8 in anctipation of migrating to Mountain Lion later this week.   While the installation went very smoothly, it seems I am having a problem with the Google display.    When I open Google, the search box has no lines around it and when I enter the box, it jumps to the Google search in the menu bar, and I can't read what I'm typing.
    I've tried a multitude of other sites where there are search boxes, log in boxes, etc, but I am only having problems with Google.   Any thoughts?

  • Problem with DMGs and error: "No Mountable File Systems"

    Problem with DMGs and error: "No Mountable File Systems"
    The files are not corrupt. The problem is occurring with all DMGs that are apparently formatted in MS-DOS FAT16. No the file will not mount with Disk utility or any other disk mounter programs I have found.
    This is now the second time this occurred and now effects my MBP and my iMac. First time i spent days with Apple support and the only solution was ultimately back up the data, reformat the HD, start over from scratch and reload everything. That lasted about a month before the problem resurfaced and is now an issue on both iMac and MBP.
    I tried to identify all the programs I installed immediately before the error, as I am convinced it is the result of a software conflict.
    Recent programs includes:
    1) upgrading from Parallels 5.5 to 6.0 on both machines.
    2) using an HP secure II usb drive and setting up a secure disk.
    3) installing new itunes 10
    4) new update to Flip For Mac.
    The files affected are downloaded dmgs, including personal brain and google earth, both which are formatted in FAT16.
    Any help or thoughts? Apple has now spent hours trying and they say i now have to reformat and wipe and start over. That is unacceptable and based on pasted experience the problem is likely to repeat itself. having to wipe and rebuild a HD ever month is not an solution. i need to fid the root problem.
    In the meantime, anyone got a real solution on how to extract the data for a DMG using a different method?

If you found anything out let me know i would greatly appreciate it

  • Problem with v and w in a cube

    Hi,
    I have problem with 'v' and 'w' in an Analysis Services cube (SQL Server 2008R2).
    The example is employee number 'frvi' and 'frwi'. The cube summarize both employee's measures to employee number 'frvi'. And does not show the employee number 'frwi'. When I make a sql query in the source db it works fine.
    The collation for Analysis Services is Finnish_Swedish, and for the source db Finnish_Swedish_Cl_AS. Is it a problem with the collation?
    I hope I'll get help here!
    //Anna-Karin

    Hi,
    Thank you for your answer.
    I read now somewhere that w became a letter of it's own in the Swedish language in year 2006. That I did not know. The question is how it is handled in the different collations. I have googled a lot today about this, but have not found anything.
    Do you know if you can change the collation in a cube afterwards, and how you do it? 
    It is correct - when I run a query i management studio, it gives me values for both frwi and frvi. But in the cube the values are summarized to employee frvi.
    Best regards Anna-Karin
