Recently, the delete key and rt click delete do not remove a message. Have to restart T'Bird to be able to delete a message. Using v 24.5.0

Using Thunderbird 24.5.0, W7, up-to-date in fixes
The delete key and the right click delete suddenly don't delete a messsage.
Restarting Thunderbird and then they both work.
What should I be looking for?

I tried that - but same result.

  • How do I stop an app from waiting?  I have tried to reboot by holding the home key and power button to power down.  Also, I have tried to sync the apps from my laptop with no success.  Can you help?  Thanks.

    How do I stop an app from waiting?  I have tried to reboot by holding the home key and power button to power down.  The app is still grayed out and waiting so it cannot be deleted.  Also, I have tried to sync the apps from my laptop and tried downloading new appswith no success.  Can you help?  Thanks

    If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

    Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
    If that doesn't work:
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

  • I use the apostropy key and up pops. Quick find (links only) I have tried everything, please help!!!

    I have tried everything, nothing seems to work, I just updated to the most recent version hopping that the developers had attended to this issue. I have tried the about:config and made a true\false to shut off all quick search functionality but it doesn't work. Nothing seems to get the (') key to stop bringing up the search box....
    It does it sporadically, how can I shut off ALL hot key\combination key quick launches?

  • I have an apple trackpad that shows that it is connected to Bluetooth but it does not respond. I have tried restarting the computer and turning the trackpad off and on but it will not work. Anyone have any ideas on what is going on here?

    I have an Apple Trackpad that shows that it is connected with Bluetooth but it is not responding. I've tried restarting the computer, disconnecting and reconnecting and also turning the trackpad on and off but it simply does not respond. Does anyone have any idea on what is going on here?

    There are reports of similar behavour but generally it is due to battery connections.   Is the indicator light working steadily or does it blink or even not function.   Here is the Apple document dealing with some of the problems.
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/MANUALS/1000/MA1544/en_US/Magic_Trackpad_UG.pdf
    Is your machine within the guarantee period or under Apple care.   If so, return it to any apple retailer for examination and possible replacement.

  • Have just downloaded the new iSO6 and now my facetime will not work. I have checked the settings and all looks fine. Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

    Have just downloaded iSO6 to my ipad and now facetime will not work properly. It will take incoming but will not allow to make a call. Could anyone offer suggestions to the problem please?

    Hi Deb,
    Deauthorizing all is definitely the way to go.  You will just need to authorize your computer again after, as well as your husband's.
    Here's some additional information on deauthorizing all:

    hello, the addons manager is exactly the right place to look for it. please try disabling the addons that are listed there one-by-one (a restart of the browser might be necessary after each step). maybe one of them is bundling this kind of adware.

    Project deleted in iPhoto 11 ver. 9.1.1
    After spending three months building a twenty six page Book Project in iPhoto i added a page and later decided to delete the page. I selected the page, pressed the delete key and confirmed the delete dialog box ( i didn't read, dummy) by pressing the delete button. The whole project was gone, the undo menu was grayed out and there was nothing in the iPhoto trash about my Book.
    Surly I can find this if I knew the path to find the project in a library on a back column I have of my hard drive.. Could anyone help me?

    Sorry I'm having a hard time getting this.
    If I go to my hard drive BIGMAC>Library>Application Support>iPhoto>the only thing in this folder is Themes.
    However, when I "Get Info" it's 580MB for 24,421 items. iPhoto says I have 35,977 photos. I would think the database would be into the GB for this many photos.
    If I go to BIGMAC>system>Library>I find nothing about iPhoto
    Is the iPhoto file in the Application Support the one I need to replace with my backup?
    Thanks so much for your help.

  • On a rare happenstance, I was viewing my passwords, attempting to print them or copy. During cleaning of keys, I hit the delete key, and my passwords were all wiped out. Where did they go?

  • I hit the delete key and the highlighted song on the playlist doesnt delete ??

    In I tunes I hit the delete key and the highlighted song does not delete.  I followed the exact steps from the manual ??????

    In my experience you can't delete songs from the library when you are starting from a smart playlist. If you delete songs from a manually created playlist, this deletes the song from that playlist view ONLY, and leaves the song in your library. If what you want to do is delete a song from your library altogether, the only way I know of is to do this from the library view.
    If you want to delete a song from a smart playlist, you can't do this directly. You need to either change the criteria for your smart playlist so that the offending song isn't selected any more, or else "uncheck" the song, and make sure that your smart playlist collects "checked songs only".
    One easy-ish way to exclude songs from your smart playlist might be to change the rating, and make sure that your smart playlist excludes all songs with that rating. However, watch out that you don't end up with a combination of rules that end up excluding all songs so that the playlist is empty, or else including too many songs so that too many items match the criteria.
    If I have not understood your problem correctly, please reply with more details. Thanks!

  • Can someone tell me why can't I delete a picture of a text message conversation? I touch and hold a picture in IOS7.0.3; I touch More, I click the picture(s) and I click the garbage bin. The picture gets deleted, but then it comes back in a seconed!

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • Delete Key and Space Bar Stopped Working

    I have an older MacPro  - the MacPro 1,1 model.
    Hadn't used it in a while a - when I set it up again the keyboard's Delete key and SpaceBar won't work.
    Here is the topline:
    1. I left the power cord in the office and used a PC one. Not sure if this could be the cause.
    2. I upgraded to 10.6.8 the most current. Didn't help.
    3. Reset the PRAM - Didn't Help.
    4. Checked the Keyboard Viewer - Not sure what that does other than to confirm something is happening.
    If I had to guess - and based on other forums I have looked at - it will likely be a power issue.
    How that affects these keys - I have no idea.
    I will test this next.
    But if anyone has experienced this would love to hear if you solved it.
    Thanks,
    -jc

    Thanks Grant,
    appreciate the info.
    I did try that, and switching the power cord (Which was a long shot) and still not luck.
    Pretty facinating issue.
    I am going ot continue to look through the forums and see if I find anything.
    Thanks again!
    If anyone else has had this issue with an older MacPro - I would love ot hear it.

  • Google Sheets: A browser error has occurred. Please hold the Shift key and click the Refresh button to try again.

    Since upgrading to OSX Yosemite last night, I get this error message when I open spreadsheets previously created in Google Drive: "A browser error has occurred. Please hold the Shift key and click the Refresh button to try again." Following these instructions does absolutely nothing.
    Word google docs open fine, as do spreadsheets that aggregate responses from a form and a select few spreadsheets; however most other spreadsheets display the same error message.
    I've tried:
    opening in Google Chrome - uninstalling and reinstalling Google Chrome: same issue
    opening in Firefox: same issue
    opening from sheets.google.com: same issue

  • Simply put, I do not like like the new color coding "dots" and I do not like having to press the Command key before double clicking to open files in a new window. How hard would have been to include the old version of these two features?
