QuickBooks Pro and Keyboard don't like eachother

Please help. Does anyone know why my keyboard (any, have plugged in different keyboards to fix problem, doesn't seem to matter) will freeze up sometimes and not allow me to type in QuickBooks Pro for mac? The problem is quite disconcerting and causes delays while at work. I am running QB 2006 on a brand new MacMini with a new aluminum flat keyboard (not wireless).

Is the problem isolated to just QuickBooks? Do the keyboards work in other applications, like TextEdit, MS Word, or iWorks?

  • Just installing a few updates from the Mac App Store for mountain lion on my 2010 MacBook Pro, during this it made a noise and then the screen and keyboard went off, like it is off. What happened, is it off...or should I just wait it out?

    What kind of noise?
    The only things I can think of that make noise are fans and disks. Fans usually will not cause the computer to shutdown as you describe. My guess is your disk drive died. I hope you made a backup prior to start the ungrade.

  • USB mouse and keyboard don't work on HP Pavilion g7 2203sd, Windows 8.1.

    It is not possible to use a USB mouse or keyboard on the HP Pavilion g7 2203sd notebook running Windows 8.1.
    A wireless mouse used to work (already some time ago), but now wired or wireless mouse and keyboard don't work any more.
    I have tried removing USB devices in the Windows Device Manager and let Windows detect them again, but it does not work.
    I read somewhere that it might have to do with the xHCI USB controller that is installed.
    I tried removing that and connecting the USB mouse but no succes.
    I also looked for driver updates or something to disbale in the BIOS (like xHCI), but nothing found for that.
    Can anybody help me with this problem.
    Thanks!

    Hello, I imported song from a CD onto my Macbook Pro and now I would like to transfer the songs onto my IPhone 5.  I can't figure out how to do that, does anyone know how I would be able to do this?

    When you set up a Smart Playlist, it automatically populates the list with songs. You don't have to do anything. Now, you may not have set it up properly, meaning your set up fails to recognize any songs.
    If you just want to put music in a Playlist, just create one, give it a name. Then drag the music from the "music" list to the playlist. It copies the information there. And when you sync the Playlist to your iPhone, all the music goes.
    It's truly easy, but there is a bit of a learning curve until you're good at it. Keep asking questions here, everyone will help you. But do read the Apple documents, they lay out pretty straightforward.

  • I added Panorama Group Tabs and I don't like the way it works. I want to remove it but can't find or figure out a way to. Can you please tell me how it can be removed permanently? Thanks!

    That link doesn't tell you how to remove the Panoroma Tab Groups!! My main issue with it is that along my tabs at the top I no longer have the tab to open a new tab. Instead I have to click on the tab groups and then open them and click on an open area in the tab to get a new tab opened!! Is there a way to add that? I don't see that when I go to customize the tool bar as there's no icon to add it, just one to open a new window, which I don't want to do!! Thanks!!

  • My touchpad and keyboard don't work.

    When I turn on my computer, my touchpad and keyboard don't work, and only the touchscreeen seems to function properly. It only turns on after a good ten or fifteen minutes. I have had to use a mouse.

  • HT4623 I got the IOS 7.1 update and I don't like it. Is there any way that I can remove the update and return my software back to the way it was before I got the update?

    I got the IOS 7.1 update and I don't like it. Is there any way that I can remove the update and return my software back to the way it was before I got the update?
    Please, I really wnat to change my phone's sofeware back to IOS 7.0.6. I really don't like the IOS 7.1
    PLEASE HELP ME BEFORE THE IOS 7.1 DRIVES ME INSANE!

    Even though it wasn't me who started this thread i would like to say that i hate iOS 7.1 too
    They're back! The IOS haters.
    When you get a call it has some small icons of reminding and message and one white ugly "slide to answer" bar.*** seriously?
    People complained about the green bar in IOS 7.0.3. You can't please everyone with everything. Deal with it and move on. Or you can just get a Droid phone and suffer through the bizarre interface changes.
    A lot of people would really appreciate a release with the old interface back.
    People complained about every interface change that Apple has tried. As I said earlier, you can't please everyone with everything. The interface is what it is, learn it, deal with it, or move on to something more to your liking. I think they still make flip phones.

  • Macbook pro trackpad and keyboard don't function

    I was working on my photography coursework monday night, and my keyboard froze, but the mouse worked. then I restarted it (losing all my unsaved editing, by the way) and neither the trackpad or internal keyboard worked. after that, for a few days, they both worked on and off, before completely ceasing to function.
    I'm running 10.5.6, and I had to buy an external mouse and keyboard this evening.
    my warranty has run out, I don't have apple care, and I cant go for more than 24 hours without my computer because we don't have another one in the house.
    does anyone know what the problem may be, and how to fix it without being without a computer for the next god only knows how long? (the place I got my mbp from doesn't allow loaned computers etc.)
    (I do not have the money to buy a new laptop either)

    Funny thing is I had the exact same problem last week. I run a Macbook Pro 2.2 intel. The laptop is alway in a studio, on a stand and connected to an external keyboard and Wacom tablet. I'll use the laptop keypad and trackpad maybe 1% of the time out of the day. The day I updated to 10.5.6 is when the keypad and trackpad stopped working.
    I had updated to 10.5 about 2-3 weeks previous, after running 10.4 for over a year with no problems. The original Archive and Instal had so many issues that I was forced to do the new instal and wipe the hard drive. After a few calls to Apple regarding the 10.5 install issues, I was offered an additional 90 days warranty.
    When I took it into Apple last weekend for the keypad and trackpad issues I was told that the warranty that was offered as a goodwill gesture didn't cover any hardware issues, only software. Apple ran through a few things on the laptop and also tried booting off a bootable startup disk and couldn't figure out the problem.
    I did check the cable issue as described below and also went thought other resets that I have read about in other posts. All to no avail.
    Apple has quoted a new top case assembly and a new keyboard. With labor I'm looking at a total of £205 to fix the issue.
    Seems a bit funny for it to all happen so soon after my 10.5 purchase and also on the day of the 10.5.6 update. I'm aware of how may others may have done the same update with no issues but this laptop has been treated with kid gloves over the past year and a half. If I was rough with it, then I could except it but when it's been treated as it has been then I just can't understand it.
    Any others with the same problems, it would be good to hear from you.

  • Some how, without asking my foxfire updated to 4.0 and I don't like it. How do I go back to my previous version?

    I have seen Firefox 4.0 on another computer and don't like what you have done to it so when it asked if I wanted 4.0 I always said NO. This time when I booted up and opened firefox it said updates were being installed and when it finished it was 4.0.
    I want to go back to my previous version. How do I do that?

    Check that your automatic updates setting has not changed. I recommend "Ask me what I want to do".
    If you have the orange Firefox button, tap the Alt key to display the classic menu bar, then
    Tools > Options > Advanced > Update mini-tab
    What don't you like about Firefox 4? Maybe it's easy to change?
    Here's the process to roll back:
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    Next, download and save Firefox 3.6 to your desktop for future installation. http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
    Close Firefox 4.
    You could install Firefox 3.6 over it (many have reported success) or you could uninstall Firefox first. If you uninstall, do not remove your personal data and settings, just the program.
    Unless you have installed an incompatible add-on, Firefox 3.6 should pick up where you left off. If there are serious issues, please post back with details.
    Note: I haven't actually tried this myself!

  • HT4759 I have macbook pro and i don't have icloud in it after i reformat my laptop. I also can't find a lot of my applications.

    I have a macbook pro and i reformat my laptop. I don't have many of the appictons or even icloud no more. How do I get all these back in?

    Your signature says you have 10.6.8 - is this correct? There is no iCloud on 10.6.8 - if you had upgraded to Lion, but then reformatted and used the disks which came with your Mac you would have installed an older system, presumably 10.6.8? You will need to go through the upgrade process again to get Lion, so that you can access iCloud.
    As to the apps, those which were not part of the installed system (such as Mail, Safari, etc.) will have to be reinstalled either from the original installers or a backup, and your actual files will have to be restored from a backup.

  • Wireless Mouse and Keyboard don't work under bootcamp. Any suggestions?

    I installed Windows 7 through Boot Camp. Everything works, but my wireless mouse and keyboard. If I add a wired mouse and keyboard, they work. Have reinstalled Bootcamp a few times, but when I try and add the devices. they are seen, but then can't pair.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Well, the 'unplugged' reference was noted earlier and I wasn't sure if you'd get a
    better response than a standard suggestion to try the other ideas in this link first
    •Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) - Apple Support
    before actually performing the SMC, that is a dragnet kind of catch-all, sometimes.
    All of my keyboard & mouse units are USB and I've gone as far as supplying the
    mouse and other peripherals with a powered USB hub; so power from the Mac
    isn't spread too thin. The keyboard is one of the only items that should be attached
    to the USB port; as it has to work on startup pre-boot keyboard shortcuts... Such
    as SafeBoot, PRAM reset, and others where you need a live keyboard and BT
    may not be up to the task of being ready. Three going on four of my Macs have
    bluetooth capabilities for those items; but I can't justify the continual upkeep cost.
    Spare USB keyboards and a few extra mouse are handy as troubleshooting tools, too.
    There are some USB keyboard references among search results in this linked page:
    https://www.google.com/?gws_rd=ssl#q=Apple+USB+keyboard+troubleshooting
    Perhaps the SMC pre-reset suggestions may help resolve the issue, if not, try reset.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • If I purchase an app on the App Store, and I don't like it, how do I get my money back?

    I recently bought a game from the App Store. But after playing it I realise I don't like it. Is there any way I get get my money back?
    Thanks

    You don't. If you read the terms of the App store, it says that all sales are final. However, if you really want to try pleading your case to iTunes support, you can do that here: http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
