Problem With Home And End keys

Hi
I cleaned the keyboard of my ibook G4 about two days ago. The ibook was switched off at the time but now I can't seem to access the left (Home) and right (End) cursor keys (When pressed nothing happens).
The up (Pg Up) and down (Pg Dn) keys are working fine. I've obviously pressed a combination of keys that has resulted in turning off my Left and Right cursor keys. How on earth do I rectify what I've done. I've looked in my G4 manual but to no avail. If somebody can help me that would be terrific.
Many thanks

zsh unfortunately doesn't read /etc/inputrc, which tells the shell what commands sent by the terminal emulator mean.
add the following to your .zshrc, and you should be fine.
# key bindings
bindkey "e[1~" beginning-of-line
bindkey "e[4~" end-of-line
bindkey "e[5~" beginning-of-history
bindkey "e[6~" end-of-history
bindkey "e[3~" delete-char
bindkey "e[2~" quoted-insert
bindkey "e[5C" forward-word
bindkey "eOc" emacs-forward-word
bindkey "e[5D" backward-word
bindkey "eOd" emacs-backward-word
bindkey "ee[C" forward-word
bindkey "ee[D" backward-word
bindkey "^H" backward-delete-word
# for rxvt
bindkey "e[8~" end-of-line
bindkey "e[7~" beginning-of-line
# for non RH/Debian xterm, can't hurt for RH/DEbian xterm
bindkey "eOH" beginning-of-line
bindkey "eOF" end-of-line
# for freebsd console
bindkey "e[H" beginning-of-line
bindkey "e[F" end-of-line
# completion in the middle of a line
bindkey '^i' expand-or-complete-prefix
by the way, i've changed some of the keys. for instance, ctrl-left and ctrl-right move back and forward by whole words. default is alt i believe.

Just switched to MAC from Windows...missing my home and end keys. Is there a MAC equivalent?

I am sure there are combination keystrokes to equate to windows, but haven't found them all yet. What is a good resource for finding this information?

If you get a wireless PC keyboard with Home and End keys, most programs that use that often will support it.
For instance Firefox and the free LibreOffice supports those features.
It's just a lot of Apple programs don't.

Home and end key not working on ubuntu 14

I am on Firefox on Ubuntu 14.
Home and END keys do not work properly as they do not take me to the top or the bottom of a page. Caret browsing (F7) is not activated. This problem persists with all add-ons disabled.

Shortcuts just for reference:
[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/keyboard-shortcuts-perform-firefox-tasks-quickly#firefox:linux:fx35]
I understand that there are two short cuts that do not work with caret browsing turned off. Please also see this menu:
Options > Advanced > disable "Always use the cursor keys to navigate within pages" option present in "General" tab.
If this is not the issue, please also contact the party that compiles Firefox specifically for Ubuntu, unless you are using the linux from [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux here]?

Anyone know how to use a 'home' and 'end' key on the Macbook pro keyboard?

I had a pc before, and the keyboard had home and end keys on the keyboard for quickly moving cursor to end or beginning of word or sentence. I can't figure out if there is something like that on the Macbook pro. It would be really helpful. So does anyone know if there is those keys and if so what do i use?
I'd appreciate any help.
Thanks

see if any of this works for you
On a smaller keyboard, such as the wireless, or on portables, you can use fn- left arrow for home and fn- right arrow for end.
On a Mac, 'home and 'end' take you to the beginning and the end of document, respectively. Getting to the beginning or end of a line is done with cmd- leftarrow and cmd- rightarrow. Emacs shortcuts, such a ctrl-a and ctrl- e also work in most places, where the app is done right.

Mac Mini w/ Apple USB keyboard - question about home and end keys

I purchased a USB white Apple keyboard to go with my Mac mini.
My question concerns the home and end keys. When I put the cusor focus in a text field or text area, I would expect that hitting the home key would take me to the beginning of the line and hitting the end key would take me to the end of the line.
That's not the case?
If a vertical scrollbar is used in the window, then the home key takes me to the top of the window and the end key takes me to the bottom of the window.
Please forgive me, I've been on a PC for the last 10+ years, so I thought I should ask.
What key or key combo moves you to the start and end of a text in a text field or text area?
Thanks,

Hi Todd,
Use the arrow keys with the command key (⌘):
command + left arrow -> beginning of the line
command + right arrow -> end of the line
command + arrow up -> beginning of the text
command + arrow down -> end of the text
Explore also the option key (⌥) possibilities, with the arrow keys:
very handy too.
Yes, the Home, End, Pageup and Pagedown keys are for controlling the whole document, not the text itself.

OSX FF 4 beta - change Home and End key behavior

On OSX, Home and End keys go to the top and bottom of the page, respectively. We need a simple way to change this to the more typical beginning/end of '''line''' behavior. This is an extremely frustrating issue in an otherwise perfect browser.

Looks like I spoke to soon. The Keyfixer extension has been updated to work with FF 4, and is in the Add-on gallery.

My up and down arrows as well as page up and page down no longer work properly only when using firefox. Page up and down function more like the "home" and "end" keys as do the arrow keys.

Honestly I'm not sure if these began just after I updated FF to the current release, but it's been happening for at least 2 weeks. The arrow keys and page up and page down keys all work as if I'm pressing the 'home' and 'end' keys on my keyboard. This is only when using FF. Please contact me if you need more clarification. Thanks in advance!

Sounds that you have switched on caret browsing.

You can press press F7 (on Mac: fn + F7) to toggle caret browsing on/off.

Custom functionality for home and end keys?

I don't know anything about automate, but I was wondering if it's possible to do this:
I'm a former PC user and on PCs you could use the 'home' and 'end' keys to go to the beginning and end of one line (subsequently, you could hold shift + home/end to highlight from your current cursor position to the beginning or end of a line). This functionality is extremely helpful for text editing and programming. Luckily the versions of Word and Dreamweaver I have on mac do use this, but TextEdit, Flash, and others do not. Is there anyway to program this kind of functionality? And if so how? And why is basic functionality like this different program to program on macs? PC's were at least consistent. Thanks!

The Command and Option shortcuts will take some getting used to, but that will work. Thanks! an external text editor would be okay for some things, but not Flash ActionScripting within a flash file.
I just wish some of the more basic functions between mac and pc were the same. I think both platforms would have an easier time getting users to switch if they were a little more consistent and took some of the good features of each into consideration.

Microsoft word 2013 function home and end keys not working together on HP Envy X2

Please help I've tried out Microsoft Office Word 2013 on two HP Envy X2 11.6" laptops/touch screen with keyboard and when I am in a Word document and am at the end or beginning of a document and select the FUNCTION KEY AND THE HOME OR END KEY, it does nothing. This is not the case in Internet Explorer or a web browser. There is a problem with the HP keyboard and Office 2013 or maybe any Word app. Help me as I use documents alot and rely on this function heavily. I can only page up or scroll up using the bar. It is not ideal.

Hi rosedoc12,
I have done some research and I have found a document that will show you how to disable or lock the fn key.

Home and end key functionality on the keyboard

Hi.
i have a window with a table where the values will be populated from database.
on that table i want to make use of HOME and END and other key board functionalities on my table.
please suggest me or provide me a sample code.
thanks in advance

You must register your table to the KeyListener. A possible solution :
yourTable.addKeyListener(new java.awt.event.KeyAdapter() {
                    public void keyTyped(java.awt.event.KeyEvent e) {
                         if(e.getKeyCode()==e.VK_HOME){
                                              //do something
                    public void keyReleased(java.awt.event.KeyEvent e) {
                         System.out.println("keyReleased()");
                    public void keyPressed(java.awt.event.KeyEvent e) {
                         System.out.println("keyPressed()");
               });

Windows equivalent "Home" and "End" keys?

Okay, if there was one keyboard shortcut I used in Windows all the time, it was Shift-Home or Shift-End to highlight an entire line quickly. Control-A and Control-B do something like that, but I can't use Shift at the same time to highlight. Is there anyway to change the function of "Home" and "End" so they don't go to the end of a paragraph, but rather to the end of the line? Is there another keyboard shortcut I can use to do this? Thanks!

Hi, JAButler.
How keyboard shortcuts, such as those you cite, work are generally defined at the application level. Command-A, i.e. ⌘-A (not Control-A) is universally defined as "Select All."
I recommend consulting the Help for a given application to determine what keyboard shortcuts it defines.
For example, in my favorite text editor, Tex-Edit Plus, it defines the following keyboard shortcuts akin to what you describe:• Shift-arrow extends a selection.
• Shift-option-left/right arrow extends the selection one word at a time.
• Shift-command-left/right arrow extends the selection to the beginning/end of the line.However, in FileMaker Pro, another application I use often, one must useShift-Option-Command-left/right arrowto extend the selection to the beginning or end of the line vs "Shift-command-left/right arrow" in Tex-Edit.
General Information on Mac OS X Keyboard Shortcuts
• An official list of Mac OS X keyboard shortcuts is found in "Mac OS X: Keyboard Shortcuts."
• An important list of keyboard shortcuts for all Mac owners is: "Mac OS: Apple Pro Keyboard Shortcuts for Shut Down and Restart."
• If you have an Intel-based Mac, see also "Startup key combinations for Intel-based Macs.".
• A popular list of Mac keyboard shortcuts is Dave's Picks Mac Keys.
• Don't forget that Mac OS X's Help Viewer lists most of the keyboard shortcuts available. Just search for keyboard shortcuts in Help Viewer.
Good luck!

Problems with browsers and 'w' key since updates

Hi
I ran 'pacman -Syu' a little over a week ago, and since then I've been experiencing two rather odd problems.
1.
Using any web-browser (firefox, epiphany, songbird, etc), visiting pages that make use of javascript (i -think- that's the cause) makes the browser stop responding for 10-20 seconds. It goes grey and everything. And then eventually it starts working again. This occurs on many websites such as Facebook, Woot.com, to name a few big ones. It's really starting to drive me nuts.
2.
This problem's much weirder. After starting my computer, the w key is very unresponsive. By that I mean for a 'w' keystroke to register I need to hold down the 'w' key for 1 or 2 seconds, after which it will finally work. At first I thought this was a problem with my keyboard, but as the computer remains on, the problem slowly disappears - after about 30 minutes, the 'w' key works as expected. I don't think this is an X/GNOME problem, as I experience the same problems in the TTYs.
I have a Sony Vaio FE-890:

I've been updating frequently in the interim hoping the problems will go away, but so far no luck. Any thoughts?

Home and End key? Shorcut?

I'm new to the MacBook line, previously had a MBP, anyways, I am not seeing a Home/End key, does anyone know the keyboard shortcut to do these, I looked on http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1343 but didn't see anything, thanks...

I'm also brand new to Macs, and lack of PgUp/PgDn/Home/End has been one of my major frustrations. But I'm learning new tricks every day! I find that not all keyboard shortcuts work the same way in all applications. E.g. Fcn-L/R arrow works in some, but not others. In Word, I just now(!) learned (learning by playing around) that Home is Fcn-Opt-UpArrow (End the same with - of course - the DownArrow), Fcn-Up/Fcn-Down is the equivalent to PgUp/PgDown. But these keys and key combos work somewhat differently in other applications. At first I was frustrated by not being able to do some things the way I'm used to, but gradually as I'm actually using the machine to do Real Work and play around a bit, I'm learning that for most things (still struggling with some other)there are slightly different but just at good ways to get the same things done.

HP 110-3135DX missing PgUp/Dn, Home, and End keys

As a precursor, I've been using an earlier model HP 110 up until now, so I'm used to the Fn+Arrow keys for this functionality previously. However, I got a new model, the 3135DX, and the Fn+Arrow key combos aren't working. Too, there's no (even very dark black-on-black) text referencing PgUp/PgDn on the arrow keys, or anywhere else. I use these keys for work and having to stop what I'm doing to fiddle with a scrollbar is irritating as all get-out. Is this accidental, or a design thing? And if the latter, who the heck thought this was a good idea? Is there any way I can get this functionality back, or am I going to have to go back to the store with a receipt and a "defective" laptop keyboard?

I am having the same issue. I hope HP will be able to provide a fix that allows the Home, End, PageUp, and PageDown keys to be triggered via a fn key combination.
In the meantime, I found a free, opensource utility on the Internet that allows you to create your own hot keys (www.autohotkey.com) and created a hotkey script that uses the Windows key in combination with the arrow keys to substitute for the missing keys.
For some reason, the #Left::Home key did not work for me as I expected. However, after some tinkering, the following AutoHotKey script is working very well for me:
#Left:END {Home}
#+Left::+Home
#^Left::^Home
#^+Left::^+Home
#Right::End
#Up:: PgUp
#Down:: PgDn
I hope this helps others who are suffering from the missing keys.

Where are Home and End keys for Numbers spreadsheet

I just bought a MBP 15 after spending my entire computer life with Windows. I have a fairly sophisticated spreadsheet that I created in Excel that I now want to use in Numbers. But I'm hung up on the simplest thing - Home & End. I've read other postings here, but everyone else seems to indicate that there are already Home & End keys on the keyboard. I have none - at least none that I can find. I just have the standard MBP keyboard, including the F1-F12 function keys (plus fn, option, control, command, & arrows). All of the key remapping posts talk about their use in text like a Safari e-mail. For spreadsheets, Windows lets me take a formula in 1 cell, ctrl-c to copy it, then shift-end-down and ctrl-v to paste that new formula to the end of the existing column. How is this done in the Mac world? Very frustrating so far. Any and all help appreciated.
