Really weird: I am unable to type a lower case "e" in Safari.

Yup, I can type every other letter, number and symbol just not a lower case "e". I can type in the Smart Search bar, extensions, just not in any webpage.
I have no idea what could be causing this. Any ideas?
PS: I had to type this out in TextEdit...

Open the Speech pane of System Preferences and check whether either the listening key or the speech key has become set to that keystroke; if so, change the setting.

The letter "o" will not type either lower case or capitals

I have a lab full of Intel iMacs and lots of little fingers that randomly hit keys on keyboards (elementary school kids). I have one computer that won't let the key of "o" work.
I have switched keyboards - so it is computer not keyboard
I have checked/reset all the shortcut keys
I have checked/reset all the speech recognition-universal access keys
Updated Firmware
Repaired HD
I would attempt to re-image, but my server connection is not working for deploy studio
It is all users - and my admin password has an "o" in it so I have been using ARD to control machine
Any ideas out there??

Go to the flag up on the right side of the menu bar and select Show Keyboard Viewer: is the o working on the virtual Keyboard?
In addition to the Restore Default button for Keyboard Shortcuts, there is also a Restore Default button in System Preferences Keyboards > Keyboards > Modifier Keys... that you might want to check.

Cannot type lower case characters in PSCS4.

Hello,
I am suddenly unable to type any lower case characters with the Photoshop type engine.
Everything comes out in all caps whether or not I've used the shift key or Caps Lock.
I have no idea how this happened or how to correct it.
Please help.
Thanks for your consideration,
cobaltgreen

George,
I'd wager that it is something that we are both loading, prior to running into the problem. My theory is that those previous images had the All Caps checked, and though we might not have done any Text work, that setting is being carried over.
My thought on the DVD Menus was based on the amount of work that I do with them. Some are from the Encore Library, and might have the All Caps checked. I need to pay close attention to when it comes up, and then look at my Recent Images list. That should tell me. Though you are not doing Menus, I'll bet that it is similar - that, or just the phases of the Moon...
I had never noticed this aberration, until about a year ago, and now have seen it a dozen times on my two machines. I will pay attention next time, rather than just fix and continue.
Good luck,
Hunt

Cant type lower case letters

I'm using Elements 8 and no font will type in lower case. All lower case letters are upper case only shorter. Any reason for this??

Double click on the text layer in the layers panel and press Shift+Ctrl+Y (Shft-Cmd-Y) and see if that clears things up.
If that doesn't work try resetting the text tool by clicking on the small downturned arrow in the tool options bar and choose Reset Tool.
Also check that the Caps Lock is not on.

X character doesn't type lower case

After using a bluetooth phone with my MacBook the character "X" does not type the lower case. It only types in the upper case, so i know that the key is still functional but will not type when pressed alone....

Open the Speech pane of System Preferences and check whether either the listening key or the speech key has become set to x; if so, change the setting.

Hello. Since my last firefox update, I have been unable to type an email - the box within which one would usually type does not appear when I press 'reply' to a received email, or press 'compose'. The email provider is '123-reg.co.uk. I have been using both firefox and the provider ['webfusion Ltd/webmail123] successfully for well over a year. The provider says it is a browser problem. I can still add an attachment to the email header, which successfully can be sent, but the recipient gets my standard email 'signature' with font messages and the attachment. Can anyone help? My email addresses are [email protected] [this is the one with the issue] and [email protected] in English

My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now. About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

Is My Iphone 3gs the only one that does this really weird glitch

ok i have a issue i looked everywhere and i did not see anything in the forums about this
when i am replying to a text message and auto-spell types something so i hit the back button/delete key to rewrite what i want to type and it does not delete the text it just goes over the letters and doesn't delete it and sometimes the cursor will just get stuck and sometimes the cursor when i am deleting text will keep going over the letters i am typing and doesn't do anything , so as i hit back/delete button on keyboard it just keeps going over the letters and does not delete its really weird, and this is my 2nd new iphone 3gs for a different issue, and they both did that.
what i want to know is if this is a hardware problem and should i take it in to get it replaced again which i hate doing,since i got a good iphone 3gs this time...has this happened to anyone else,or does this happen to anyone else
any help would great thank you

Well if it happened to 2 different iphones perhaps something is corrupted in your backup restore file. By restoring your new phone with this old backup restore file u may be copying over the problem.
Solution: Restore and setup your iphone as a 'New' phone instead of restoring from a previous backup. This should solve your problem.

My iMac is acting really weird lately....

So I got my iMac in 2008 I think. Around that time. So sometimes it's slow but it still works fine... Initially I had 1 GB of RAM and last year I got 3 more so now I have 4GB of RAM. (I don't know whether this may be related to my problem but I thought I'd mention it) My iMac has been acting unusually weird for a week or so. It starts up soo slow, it takes about 7 minutes. Yesterday it started up just fine though.... Today I wanted to start it up and I got to the desktop screen but the little applications on the top bar (the wifi, volume, language preference, caffeine etc) wouldn't all load (just a few of them were there)... and then I got the spinning wheel.... which wouldn't stop spinning... so I shut it down because nothing would work and I started it up again. No luck. I tried again and this time I was stuck for 15 minutes at the grey apple logo thing before I got to the desktop screen... Also, I have an app called Caffeine. A few days ago it disappeared from my top bar without having done anything... I use it so that the desktop doesn't go into sleep mode/screensaver mode... so I noticed the screen saver and I thought it was weird because I haven't had screen savers for years. The first time it started to act strange was a week ago, when I started the iMac and it told me to enter my apple ID and password - but I never logged out of it! This happened multiple times. Once, I entered everything correctly and it told me that it was incorrect. When I restarted, it got me right into my apple ID.. Also Chrome was asking me for a password for 'local items' - which is really weird because I never had something like that. Or at least never seen that before..... I also searched for viruses and repaired some permissions but it didn't change much... now it doesn't ask me to log into my apple ID anymore but it takes so long to start up... But once it's finished starting up it works flawlessly. I'm really worried. What's happening to my iMac?

Do the following:
Repair the hard drive and permissions using Disk Utility.
Backup your files to an external drive.
Boot from your installer DVD.
Erase the hard drive.
Reinstall Snow Leopard.
Upgrade Snow Leopard to 10.6.8.
Reinstall any third-party software from original media.
Restore your data files.
Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your Snow Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
Drive Partition and Format
1. Boot from your OS X Installer Disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
2. After DU loads select your hard drive (this is the entry with the mfgr.'s ID and size) from the left side list. Note the SMART status of the drive in DU's status area. If it does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing or has failed and will need replacing. SMART info will not be reported on external drives. Otherwise, click on the Partition tab in the DU main window.
3. Under the Volume Scheme heading set the number of partitions from the drop down menu to one. Click on the Options button, set the partition scheme to GUID then click on the OK button. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Click on the Apply button and wait until the process has completed.
4. After formatting is finished quit Disk Utility and return to the installer. Complete Snow Leopard installation.
5. Download and install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 to update Snow Leopard to 10.6.8
The easiest way to do the backup step is to connect a formatted, empty hard drive of the same capacity or greater than your internal drive. Clone the internal drive to it.
Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility in the Utilities folder.
2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag
it to the Destination entry field.
5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
the Source entry field.
6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.

This is really weird-my router seems to have a username

Ok, this is really weird.
On top of the reoccuring screen that prompts for username/password everytime I turn on computer, there is a pulldownmenu.
In the pulldown menu seems to be my Earthlink email address. Which Earthlink is not our ISP anymore. It's Bellsouth. So, how would the router have got the Earthlink email address?
The other weird thing is that if I open any browser and type those numbers to access the router setup page, if I type the admin password which my nephew changed, I can type it with a username or without it. For the username I also tried typing in my Earthlink email address, just to see what would happen. It seems to allow me to login either way, with or without the email address for the username.
Does that not sound really weird?

Most linksys routers only use the password and require no username. They simply ignore which username you enter. You can enter anything you like as username.
It is not the router which remembers the usernames and passwords on your computer but your browser or your computer. At one time you have entered your earthlink address in your browser to connect to the router. And now it remember it...

After choosing a blank template in PAGES, i am unable to type in the main body of the docs. I have to open a text box to type. Pls help

Hi all, need help here. I just face this problem today. When i click the pages icon and after choosing a blank template, i am unable to type anything in the document. All icons in the format bar at the top cannot be clicked (font, font size etc). I will have to open a text box in order to type it.
If i open an existing PAGES doc, duplicate and rename it, then i delete all existing text that i have written, only then i can type in at the doc.
To illustrate my problem, attached is a pic from my Macbook screen
Please help.

Maybe try turning on the grammar checker.

When I convert my pdf doc to word, the fonts go really weird and it also puts some text into boxes. when I try to select the test and change the font, it does not change it properly?

When I convert my pdf doc to word, the fonts go really weird and it also puts some text into boxes. when I try to select the text and change the font, it does not change it properly? This is making it impossible to amend.

Hi Janedance1,
If the PDF that you converted already has searchable text, please try disabling OCR as described in this document: How to disable Optical Character Recognition (OCR) when converting PDF to Word or Excel. (If the PDF was created from a scanned document and doesn't already have searchable text, disabling OCR isn't a great option, as the text won't be searchable/editable in the converted Word doc.)
Please let us know how it goes.
Best,
Sara

I am Unable to Type or use Keyboard in Firefox 18.0 anywhere including URL bar and Search Bar. how should rectify this?

I am unable to type anything or use keyboard to type in Firefox. I am using Firefox 18.0 installed on Windows 7.
I am able to Paste into the URL bar and also the Search bar but absolutely not able to type in it.
I have already tried the "reset" option but still unable to type.
Also tried Firefox in safe mode with disabled addons but still unable to type.
Installed a fresh copy of firefox after uninstalling Firefox and deleting the old folder "Mozilla Firefox" from windows. but still unable to type.
Please tell me a solution to this.

I'm not on a laptop so I don't have a FN key. But on my desktop F9 + Windows key appears to have resolved the issue for me. Thanks for the help!

I am trying to create an account and I am unable to type into the password box.

When I try to create a new account I am unable to type into the password text box. I can enter my email and I can type int he security wquestion box. I have Windows 7, the current version of iTunes and its a fairly powerful PC. Please help!

Same problem. Wasted 2 hours so far! I use my personal email for registering all my HP products and can log-in to that fine. Trying to use same personal email for eprint seems to be problem.

When opening a new window, it automatically loads last pop-up (?) content and I am unable to type in address bar or open a new tab in the new window.

I don't know if they're technically pop-up windows (for example, if you do a search on kayak.com, it will automatically open a new priceline.com window with the results of the search), but this happens with pop-up blocker on or off. Other examples are a small info window from a financial or .edu site that opens up saying a session is about to expire, or answering an FAQ (with the exception of the priceline example, these windows don't have an address bar or display a URL). Anyway, after these windows are closed, if I try to open a new window, it will automatically load the content of that "pop-up". Whenever it does this, I am unable to type in the address bar or open a new tab in that window.
How do I fix this? All I want is to open a new window that's blank, not load prior content.

It could be the work of one of your add-ons, or even add / mal-ware.
Look thru your add-ons list and make sure you know what each one is
there for. Also, check the programs that are on your computer
'''Windows > Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs.'''
'''(Mac: Open the "Applications" folder)'''
Go thru the list and use a web search to check any that you don't
know what they are.
