Shift+Delete = Forward Delete is Driving Me Mad

Is there any way to make Shift+Delete do normal backward-delete instead of forward-delete?
Edit a keyboard layout maybe?

My iphone 5 is 32GB and I keep it backed up in icloud. A recent message suggested that I don't have enough icloud space so I have deleted all back up - it still says no icloud space - help!!! I am not a techy person and this is driving me mad!! :(

Please can somebody help ....My iphone said not enough icloud space available, so I have delete all back ups and checked what apps are linked to my back up and it is only my photos. Since deleting all current back ups I have tried to back up again and it still says not enough space when I have 5GB/ 5GB available.
Can anybody help please? I'd be really greatful as this is driving me mad... why can't things just be simple x

The problem could be that you don't have enough storage on the device itself, not on iCloud. Go to Settings>General>Usage to see how much "Storage" you have available on the device. Farther down the list is the available storage on iCloud.
Also check:
Go to Settings>iCloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage; there, tap the device you need info on and the resulting screen lists Backup Options with which apps store data on iCloud as well. Tap Show All Apps to get the complete list of apps and MB used for backup storage.
A device needs many MB of storage in order to perform a backup to iCloud.

Every cut I make in the sequence window leaves one remaining frame from its deleted neighbor clip. How do I turn off this feature - It is driving me mad.

Every cut I make in the sequence window leaves one remaining frame from its deleted neighbor clip. How do I turn off this feature - It is driving me mad.

Here are 3 pictures detailing what I'm experiencing.
Picture 1; clip 1 tail frame.
Picture 2; clip 2 head frame.
Picture 3; clip 2 head frame is now tail frame of clip 1.
does this help describe what is happening? Basically every cut I make
leaves an unwanted frame as a ghost of the missing cut.
best,
Fred

Can anyone help? No incoming emails are appearing in my Inbox, but appear in the Gmail All Mail box. This is occurring on both my iphone and ipad.even if I delete an email, it reappears here. Slowly driving me mad! All help appreciated

Can anyone help? No incoming emails are appearing in my Inbox, but they turn up in the Gmail All Mail box.
Even if I delete an email it pops up again here. This is happening on both my ipad and iphone4s and is gradually driving me mad.
Any help would be much appreciated.

All I had to do was complain. I synced my iPhone to the Windows machine, checked the other account at iTunes prompting (where no apps had shown up previously), reconnected the iPad, and 140 apps downloaded including the App Store. I have no idea why.

Quicker Forward delete on a non-Apple (ANSI) keyboard

Could a charitable soul please suggest a script that would assign "Shift Delete" (that does forward delete) to the Print Screen key on my USB non-apple keyboard ?

DoubleCommand offers 20 specific actions, none of which enables using the PrintScreen key for Forward Delete.
The nearest is Backslash (\) acts as Forward Delete (but then I cannot use backlash any more) or Shift Delete acts as Forward Delete (But I can do that already!)
Trying to assign the signal presently sent by Shift Delete to the PrintScreen key looks pretty hopeless. I tried uControl, but it is the same. Is there a way?

Delete Forward keyboard shortcut?

I need to find a way to "delete forward" in Mail.app with the built-in keyboard on my PowerBook. (NOT on an external keyboard, that has a dedicated key for it)
Most apps (BBEdit) do this by clicking SHIFT-DELETE.
Any ideas?

On my iBook, you press the FN key and the DELETE key.

My BT keyboard delete button now forward deletes rather than backspacing like it used to do. This happened after I got my iMac back from the hard drive replacement program. Any ideas how to return the keyboard to the default backspace?

The good news after my hard drive was replaced during Apple's Seagate replacement program -- all my data and settings reinstalled seamlessly through Time Machine and my external hard drive. Bad news? My BT keyboard will now only forward delete when I hit the delete key rather than backward delete. I find this so ironic since I hated this feature when I switched from PC to Mac, but now I'm totally used to it. I tried resetting the default under system preferences, but it didn't help. Otherwise, keyboard works perfectly. This is so strange. Anyone have any suggestions? Oh -- and now I see my arrows don't work either.

Why would you make a new account? This will likely cause many problems. Just get you old account enabled.
Apple ID: "This Apple ID has been disabled for security reasons" alert appears

Everything you purchased with the old account will always be tied to that account. You will have to authorize the computer for that account and you will have to update the apps from that account.

How do I get forward delete to work on a PC w/ an Apple Wireless Keyboard?

Hello,
I have successfully connected an Apple Wireless Keyboard to my Toshiba Portege laptop which is running Windows Vista. The keyboard is working fine but my laptop won't recognize the 'fn+delete' command to execute a forward delete. I've searched quite a bit online but I can't figure out how to replicate the forward delete functionality, which I use all the time, with my Apple Wireless Keyboard. Anyone have suggestions or ideas about other key combinations which may work or mapping software I can use on my laptop to get this done? Thanks very much!
JK

How do I delete/forward portions of text messages in ios7?

How do I delete/forward portions of text messages in ios7

I'm guessing you mean portions of the thread? Tap on the message you want to delete or foward. Tap "More" on the pop up menu that appears. Select any messages you want to forward or delete. Tap either the trash can in the lower left or the forward arrow in the lower right.

'SHIFT variable RIGHT deleting trailing space' not working

I have a character field in a transaction that occasionally gets populated with a value that has a space at the end or at the beginning or both. This is causing the dataload to fail. I added code below to remove these spaces from the end and beginning-
SHIFT <variable> RIGHT deleting TRAILING space.
SHIFT <variable> LEFT deleting LEADING space.
The SHIFT LEFT works perfectly and deletes the space at the begining of the value but SHIFT RIGHT does not delete the space at the end for some reason. I tried defining the variable as a char (16), string but nothing seems to make it work.
Note: I cannot use CONDENSE because the value can have spaces in between that we cannot delete.
Any ideas why shift right wouldn't work?

Hi Maanasa,
First of all Shift works only with string datatype. So transfer the contents of that character field into a string datatype and do the shift operation.
Declare a string variable of that type. Data v_str type string.
Pass the contents of the character field into the string.
And do the shift operation on the string and pass the value of the string back to the character field.
Shift v_str by 1 places right.
Please try this.
Thanking you,
Jerry

How do I delete forwards, ie without using the backspace key ?

When want to change a letter or some text I always have to position the cursor after the entire word and use the backspace key to delete the whole word, even if I just want to delete, for example, the first letter. Is there a key that deletes forwards ?
This applies to my iPad, MacBook Air and iPhone.

I'd like to sort of hiighjack this thread. I moved from an iPad Mini to an iPad Air bcause I wanted to add a keyboard case that would replace some of the frustration I've experienced trying to type on the Mini's display. So with the AIR I purchased a Belkin Ultimate keyboard and I'm very peased with it. My "principal" computer is a desktop PC and I was quite startled to find there are no cursors, other than by finger, in the iPad world; however, I'm getting used to that. Re the posting here, that seems to be good advice re the delete function. My question: looking prettyy closely at my Belkn keyboard, where is the "delete" key?

My forward delete no longer works when searching or editing on Itunes since installing an update

My forward delete no longer works when searching or editing on Itunes since installing an update. Anyone else have that problem? Any fixes?

Have you tried:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price:

A third-party place like the following maybe less. Google for more.

HT1171 How do I forward-delete in Windows using an Apple Wireless Keyboard?

http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1171 says that forward-delete maps to but that key doesn't exist on an Apple Wireless Keyboard (as far as I can tell). Anyone know how to achieve this, as well as home, page up, and page down functions?
I've tried https://code.google.com/p/uawks/downloads/detail?name=Install UAWKS 2008.09.17.exe and uxsoft.cz/projects/awk, but these don't support forward-delete, home, page up, or page down.
Thanks!

Fn and delete works for deleting stuff to the right of the cursor, if that's what you mean?
