Skype won't let me type username or password

What version of Windows are you on (XP, Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8 )? Is it 32-bit or 64-bit? http://support.microsoft.com/kb/827218 What is the version of Internet Explorer installed on your computer? In Internet Explorer go to Help -> About Internet Explorer. P.S. Please, don’t say that you are not using Internet Explorer. This is irrelevant. Skype depends on Internet Explorer.

Skype won't let me type in my password!!!

Whenever I try to log into skype, I keep getting this odd login box, as to the regular one. It won't let me type in my password or even change my username. I've tried to uninstall and re-download numerous amounts of times, but it didn't help. Any ideas?

What you are seeing now is the new login window introduced with Skype 5.5. The new login procedure requires that a functioning Internet Explorer with enabled JavaScript is installed on the computer. You may try with resetting of Advanced and Security settings in IE. You can also do this by applying the Fix It from this Microsoft site:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923737
If nothing of this helps, then the following procedure will return the old login screen:
Quit Skype. Make sure that you don’t see any Skype.exe processes in Windows Task Manager. If necessary, then stop these processes. Open C:\Program Files\ folder. If you have 64-bit Windows then it should be C:\Program Files (x86)\ folder. Find the Skype folder and then Phone. Right click on the Skype.exe file and select: Send to – Desktop (create shortcut). Right click on the newly created shortcut and select the Shortcut tab. In the Target field you will see now: "C:\Program Files\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe" (or with (x86) if you are on 64-bit Windows). Click with your mouse on the text in the Target field and move your curser one space after the last quotation sign and add the text /legacylogin. The text in the Target field should now read:
"C:\Program Files\Skype\Phone\Skype.exe" /legacylogin
Click OK to save the changes. Start Skype using this new shortcut. Can you now login to Skype?

Try first this:
Go to Windows Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Right click on Command Prompt, select 'Run as administrator'.
In the Command Prompt type: cd c:\windows\syswow64 and press Enter.
Next type this and then press Enter:
regsvr32 jscript.dll
Next type this and press Enter:
regsvr32 jscript9.dll
After each Enter you should receive a message saying that DllRegisterServer in XXX.dll succeeded.
Reboot your computer.
Make now the test showing if your Internet Explorer can execute JavaScript.

My mac won't let me type in my password. Please help

My mac won't let me type in my password when I am required to do so to update any software or to unlock system preferences. When I click the lock to unlock in system preferences a box comes up asking me to type my password, however when I type nothing is written in the box. Please help

Try a device reset. If that doesn't help, you should take your device to an Apple Store for a free evaluation.
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

My screen says I need to restore, but it won't let me type in my password to unlock the phone

My iPhone screen says I need to restore the phone, and to do so I should connect to iTunes. However, when I connect to iTunes, it tells me that my phone is locked and I need to type in my passcode on my phone. My phone will not let me type in my passcode or do anything else - it just shows the "Restore Needed" screen. What do I do? I've already tried turning it off and on.

Force the phone into recovery mode:
If you cannot turn off your phone using the slider, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When your phone turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons. Then, leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, itunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new.

BB Curve 9300 doing random things, won't let me type my unlock password, send/receive texts or phone calls

I have had my BB Curve 9300 for 1 day, today it appears to be doing random things, when I try to type my unlock password it is putting random characters in. Its also sending random text messages out and I am unable to answer any calls? Any ideas? Thanks

Sounds like this could be a software issue. Have you upgrade any of the software or changes any settings or put a different OS on the phone?
If Not
I would suggest taking it back to where you bought it and have them issue it as an OBF (Out of Box Failure). Afew BBS have this problem and usually they come with a 7 days warranty in case of a manufacturing fault. Should that be the case I would recommend that you take your 9300 back and demand for either a replacement of for them to fix it for you free of charge.
But should you have changed something or added new software then the fault lays on you and you're responsible for the fixing of the BB.

TimeCapsule won't let me type password for "delete all backups of..."

I've been using this TimeCapsule/TimeMachine for a couple years. I'm trying to open up some space. So I just excluded a couple folders from being backed up. Now I'd like to dump the old backups of those folders. So I go into TimeMachine, go to latest backup (not "Now/Today"), click on folder, hit "Delete all backups of..." from the action/gear menu, and it warns me that it can't be undone. Then it prompts me for admin name/password, but it won't let my type in the password!
It will let me hit the OK button (at which point it says it's a bad password), or hit the Cancel button to cancel, but it won't let me type anything. (Not into the Name field either, though that doesn't matter since it's prefilled with the correct name.)

See #E4 of Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
Mixing Time Machine backups and other data on a TC's internal HD usually leads to problems, as you've seen. See #Q3 in Using Time Machine with a Time Capsule for details and some possible workarounds.

You possibly have a redemption code which has to be converted into a serial number.

MacBook won't let me type anything at all

MacBook won't let me type anything at all. It's running Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snowleopard

You have to understand the difference between an Update and an Upgrade.
An Update is a free change to add to the base code or as a bug fix within an existing Operating System. Such as the .8 added to 10.5.
An Upgrade is a complete new Operating System that must be purchased. Such as 10.5 Leopard to 10.6 Snow Leopard.
10.5 Leopard was written for Power PC Macs with code added to allow it to run on Intel processors.
10.6 Snow Leopard has completely rewritten code and only runs on Intel Macs.
10.7 Lion used some 32 bit which allows it to run on Late 2006 through Early 2008 MacBooks and a lot of 64 bit code.
10.8 Mountain Lion is pure 64 bit, which excludes more systems than Lion did. It can only run on the Late 2008 through Mid 2010 MacBooks. It's not something you can add memory to, for example, as it involves the base architecture.

Terminal won't let me type my password

Hiya,
Don't know anything about Terminal. I'm trying to set my computer up for remote printing to use at my university library. Using my IT services webpage, I copied and pasted a text string into the window as instructed. I got this:
We trust you have received the usual lecture from the local System
Administrator. It usually boils down to these three things:
#1) Respect the privacy of others.
#2) Think before you type.
#3) With great power comes great responsibility.
Password:
So what I think that means is that whatever I was supposed to enter there was fine. The problem is that it's won't let me type my password. I tried typing all different kinds of characters, and nothing happens- there's just a dark grey box after the colon. If I hit return, it says "sorry, password incorrect" or something.
My computer is a two-year-old iBook G4 running some kind of OS X, if that matters. Sorry, I feel like this is probably really obvious, but I'm at a loss.
Thanks,
Kate
iBook G4

When you are prompted for your password in Terminal nothing will be echoed to the screen when you type your password... no characters, no dots, the cursor won't move... that's normal... it's a security safeguard.
Just type your password and press the return key.
However, you must be logged into your computer with an account that has administrator privileges. And it's asking for the password of the account you're logged in to.

HELP?! My iPod touch won't let me type anything!

I just got my ipod touch and finished setting it up and putting all my music on it. I was trying to get on the internet but I have to put in a password for my internet connection. Whenever the keyboard comes up on my iPod it won't let me type anything. It just pops up for a minute and then dissapears! *What's going on??* Can anyone help!

Where are you physically located?
What country's Store are you using?
The two have to be the same and the payment method for your account also has to be associated (billing address, where iTunes gift card was purchased) with that country.
Has the ID(s) worked before for purchases for this country's store?
