Software that prevents key combinations from working

Under OSX 10.4.7 the key combination "shift + l" does not produce "L" on my iMac. Everything else seems fine including lower case L. If I start the iMac from the OS software installation disk (OSX 10.4.4) or startup in Windows XP using Boot Camp or start OSX in "safe mode" then "shift + l" does produce "L".
Also, I have an eMac (also OSX 10.4.7) for which the key combination "shift + /" does not produce "?". If I startup in "safe mode", "shift + /" does produce "?".
I have never installed any software for setting "hotkeys". How do I identify what software on my hard drives is preventing these key combinations from working?
iMac Intel Mac OS X (10.4.7) regular Apple keyboard

Sorry about posting in "iMac G5". I have no idea how I failed to get it in the Intel iMac forum.
I used the "Activity Monitor" utility to see what was different between "safe mode" and my regular startup. I noticed that the "Speech synthesis server" was one difference. I found the "Speak selected text when the key is pressed" option in the preferences pane for "Speech". That was the problem.
It would be nice if there was a warning message that said, "You will not be able to type '?' if you assign that key combination to Speech."

You are welcome. I'm glad you got it back up.
(1) You say you did the symbolic link. I will assume this is set correctly; it's very important that it is.
(2) I don't know what you mean by "Been feeding the [email protected] for several weeks now, 700 emails each day at least." After the initial training period, SpamAssassin doesn't learn from mail it has already processed correctly. At this point, you only need to teach SpamAssassin when it is wrong. [email protected] should only be getting spam that is being passed as clean. Likewise, [email protected] should only be getting legitimate mail that is being flagged as junk. You are redirecting mail to both [email protected] and [email protected] ... right? SpamAssassin needs both.
(3) Next, as I said before, you need to implement those "Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server." Once you have that done and issue "postfix reload" you can look at your SMTP log in Server Admin and watch as Postfix blocks one piece of junk mail after another. It's kind of cool.
(4) Add some SARE rules:
Visit http://www.rulesemporium.com/rules.htm and download the following rules:
70sareadult.cf
70saregenlsubj0.cf
70sareheader0.cf
70sarehtml0.cf
70sareobfu0.cf
70sareoem.cf
70sarespoof.cf
70sarestocks.cf

72sare_redirectpost
Visit http://www.rulesemporium.com/other-rules.htm and download the following rules:
backhair.cf
bogus-virus-warnings.cf
chickenpox.cf
weeds.cf
Copy these rules to /etc/mail/spamassassin/
Then stop and restart mail services.
There are other things you can do, and you'll find differing opinions about such things. In general, I think implementing the "Frontline spam defense for Mac OS X Server" and adding the SARE rules will help a lot. Good luck!

Hi watanabei,
Please see Countries where ExportPDF is available for purchase. - Adobe Community. It's necessary to have a credit card billing address in one of the countries listed in this document. If ExportPDF is unavailable to you, you may want to consider an Acrobat subscription, which would also allow you to convert PDF files to Word and other format. For more information, see www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html.

Control key combination stopped working

I use [control]- and [control]+ on the number pad to zoom the text in and out.
For some reason, [control]+ on the number pad no longer works. It does, however, work using the number keys at the top of the keyboard.
I have tried starting Firefox with no extensions loaded ... no joy. I have tried creating a new profile under my user account ... no joy. I have system administrator privileges.
When I launch Firefox using the Full Administrator's account and password, all the keys work.
I'm using Firefox 22.0 on top of Windows XP Professional.

This is driving me nuts.
The key combination does not work in either Firefox or Adobe Reader when I'm logged in as myself (with Admin privileges). When I login as Administrator, I do not have the problem.
I had to reformat my computer and reinstall all software a couple of days ago due to another problem. Interestingly, until yesterday afternoon, the key combos worked in both my account and the Administrator account. Sometime yesterday afternoon while reinstalling all the software, I lost the key combo on only my account again.
I checked the registry on both my account and the Administrator account ... no difference ... no joy.
If this happens in both Firefox and Adobe Reader, it's gotta be because of one of the pieces of software that I installed yesterday afternoon ... right???
[quote]
Can you think of any external software that might have captured that combination globally for some purpose (e.g., screen recorder software hotkey to start a new capture)?
[/quote]
Oh, I don't use any screen captures or hotkeys. It must be something that I'm not aware of.
Thanks.

100% thread pool/CPU usage prevent MII Applications from working

Hello to all,
our MII Applications were running on MII 11.5 (windowsserver 2003, with IIS) without any problems.
We migrated these MII Applications to SAP xMII Version 12.0 SP8, SAP NW 7.00 SP20, Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 1.4.2_22-rev-b03, mixed mode).
Since then we faced several problems that prevent the MII Applications from working, e.g.
- 100% application thread pool usage rate
- 100% CPU usage
- awful lot of http connections
Several sap support calls didn't find the root cause.
Workaround: restart sap system weekly
Does anyone has any idea how to go on?
Thanks
Simone

Hi Mike,
sap support told us to install this Java version.
Furthermore SAP Note 716604 says "do not use J2SE 5.0" and "Currently, we recommend 1.4.2_24 b06".
Any more ideas?
Regards,
Simone

Finance software that will take import from Liquid Ledger?

I am using Liquid Ledger personal finance software, which is no longer being made.
I want to switch to a different personal finance software that is compatible with the latest Mac OS.
I'm thinking of switching to Quicken, mostly because it's a well know software, and should continue to release versions compatible with the latest Mac OS.
I don't want to be stuck in the same situation in the future with my information stuck in a software that isn't being updated.
So would you pick Quicken or is there another Mac personal Finance software that will continue to release new versions?
Also... How do I get my data from Liquid Ledger to Quicken. I imagine it's not going to be smooth...

Excellent! Thanks so much. That seems to be a great feature I had not discovered. I went into factory-->Audio to Score, and it turned the waveform view into piano roll, and gave me the music notation! Awesome!
Now I cannot seem to find the way to return the view back to the waveform. The help file chapter explaining this is not something I can seem to find. Do you know the trick?
Thanks! (and thanks!),
Bryan

Alt Gr + key combination not working in FF?

When i wont to type for example "@" i cant because in FF combination of Alt Gr key and V are not working.
Why the combination is not working and how i can fix that?

I had the same problem, in my case the problem was the Firewall (COMODO). I set the Firefox program without permission to access to the keyboard, the most of keys worked perfectly but ALTGR+Any didn't work. Try to allow access to the keyboard to firefox program if you has any firewall with proactive defense.
I hope this solve your problem.

Neuratron's Photoscope prevents Paper Capture from working

I have been using Acrobat 9 Professional for some time without any problems. I installed Sibelius5 with Neuratron's Photoscope a few weeks ago and Paper Capture simply stopped working. I tried repairing the installation, and finally uninstalled Acrobat and re-installed it to no avail. I have spent literally hours trying to fix this problem.
I finally did a search here on the Acrobat forums and found the post: http://forums.adobe.com/message/1178373#1178373
I found a copy of the Paper Capture driver drs832.dll located here: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\plug_ins\PaperCapture and copied over the ******* version that Photoscope dumped in C:\Windows\System32. Now my Acrobat Paper Capture applications work perfectly once more.
I just wanted to share and prevent anyone from going through what I've gone through.
Acrobat ERROR Message encountered:
"Acrobat could not access the recognition service because: Unable to locate the Paper Capture recognition service. Your installation may be corrupt. This is probably due to either a low memory situation or a corrupt installation. If the problem is not clears up by shutting down other applications and/or rebooting, then please re-install Acrobat.

BBLink account is preventing priority hub from working for emails

The priority hub on my phone was working fine when I got my Q10 a couple months ago. Somewhere along the way it stopped working, but just for my email accounts--BBM, text, twitter, etc, kept working. I have spent some time trying to figure out why this happened, reading forum posts here and such with no luck.
In the end I settled for making some manual rules that mimicked the priority hub behavour. It was a pain, but it worked.
Then I had a seperate issue when adding a new email account, where my outlook contacts kept duplicating on my phone. In the end, I fixed this by removing accounts I wasn't using on the phone (mainly the bblink one), and deleting all my local contacts phone information, then readding the outlook account. This stopped the outlook duplicates from being created.
But low and behond, my priority hub started working again for emails. Which was great. But then a few days later, it stopped working again.
I figured out it happened when I plugged my phone into my computer to back it up. At this point the "bblink" account was made on my phone again. Then the priority hub stopped working for emails again.
Deleting the "bblink" account once again fixed the priority hub issue.
It's not a big deal, I can just delete this "bblink" account every time I back up my phone. But I have the Link program on my computer set to not sync or auto start anything. I just plug in the phone, run the backup, and unplug it.
So I'm just wondering if anyone knows what is going on here, or has experienced something similar.

Tom-Zom-W wrote:
So if I have all the options in Link already turned off, any idea how I can run a backup yet prevent Link from syncing.
Also, is this BBLink account common to blackberry 10 devices? I checked a friends BB, he didn't have the account and also uses Link for backups.
Check your Link set for contacts and calendar and turn that off.

Passcode Lock prevents Apple Configurator from working

We have over 2,000 Supervised iPads in our district. We would like the students to Passcode Lock their iPads to deter other students from messing with the iPads.
Once the Passcode Lock is set, Apple Configurator no longer works :-(
Cannot Update/Install Apps
Cannot Remove/Install Profiles
Cannot Restore from Backup
etc
Must type in the Passcode and Supervise while logged in (which prevents us from closing the lid, plugging in the iPad into the Bretford carts). Once the lid is closed, the passcode lock is activated again. This is a ROYAL PAIN!
Also, if the teacher is not aware of what the student Passcode is, there is no way of updating the iPad. Multiply this by 2,000 and you can see how much of a pain this is.
Apple Configurator should be able to work with Supervised iOS devices that are passcode locked. It just makes sense. IF the iOS device is Supervised by Apple Configurator, the Passcode Lock should NOT prevent further management by Apple Configurator.
Apple, PLEASE FIX IT

Can I repair the ntdll.dll fault that prevents InDesign CS4 from opening in Windows 7?

I am running Windows 7, all updates installed, and CS4, updated to 6.0.6.622. This problem does not affect any other app in CS4. Starting yesterday, InDesign would crash as soon as I opened a document. Then it would crash before I could open a document. Now it crashes once the small pink splash screen displays. The Windows detail is this:
The same behavior occurs with with my machine in Safe mode.
I have not added any fonts.
I attempted the manual "trash preferences" procedure found on this site.
I attempted the "default printer" solution.
I already rolled back my system to October 13 (my earliest possible restore point) and then reinstalled InDesign, then when the problem persisted installed the 6.0.6 patch again. So rolling back from the update is not a solution. Would uninstalling inDesign before reinstalling be required?
This department (3 users) got new laptops witn Windows 7 and CS4 in January, and I am the only one experiencing this. I know I am current on all updates, but I can't speak for everyone else. Perhaps I am too up-to-date.
My IT dept thinks the standard solution of re-imaging the hard drive is required, but that takes a day and then another two to reinstall/re-register/reconfigure all my apps. I have work to do!
I sure hope someone else has solved this already; I have spent a lot of time searching for a clue. Thanks all, in advance.

I just tried the Recovery Folder solution, where you delete the contents of the folder. This sounded promising, because the first time ID crashed, a document was open. When I launched ID again, the doc was recovered. I closed it without saving changes, after which ID crashed. After that point, ID never got beyond the splash screen. There were two items in the folder (see screenshot), but alas, no joy.
Thanks Peter for the cleanup - I had not spent any time reading the forum how-to (and I write user docs).

New Tab script error prevents other functions from working. How do I remove "New Tab" content (sponsored links, etc)?

I actually found the settings for it in the top right corner of the page, but figured I'd report it anyway.
Basically, the New Tab Tiles have been causing script errors (prompt to stop script) that disable a few navigation controls, like being able to close a tab. Any tab that is open or opened after the script error will not close. I have to restart Firefox for the controls to start working again. I have found that the tiles that have been causing the problems are the one's that Firefox provides, as it still happens when my internet history is clear and not loading any tiles from my history.
It doesn't happen every time, but it does happen regularly. I just changed my settings from "enhanced" to "classic" and will see if this helps, otherwise I will just turn it to blank if its still an issue.

If it does happen there are other add ons that block scripts like No Script.
However for script errors, general troubleshooting can be found: [[Warning Unresponsive script - What it means and how to fix it]]

CF10 Sandbox Security prevents CFCOLLECTION create from working

Hello, everyone,
I've got CF10 installed on my dev system. I've created several Solr collections. I have turned on Sandbox Security, and added defined directory permissions for C:/ColdFusion10/cfusion/collections and C:/ColdFusion10/cfusion/jetty folders. I have edited both paths so that NOTHING is disabled.
If Sandbox is on and I remove a collection from within CFAdmin, when I try to use the CFCOLLECTION action="create" tag, I get java.io.filePermission "read" access denied messages.
If I turn off Sandbox, the tag runs fine.
What else do I need to do in order for CFCOLLECTION action="create" to work while Sandbox is on?
V/r,
^_^

Hi, Charlie! Thanks for chiming in. (Also, sorry for delay in responding..)
Yes, when the collection is created in CFAdmin, the collection IS creating the folders in C:\ColdFusion10\cfusion\collections.
When I create them with CFCOLLECTION, I am specifying the same path to the collections folder.
For the Sandbox, CF10 installs with three items in the Sandbox, already:
(ColdFusion WEB-INF system directory)
(ColdFusion CFIDE system directory)
C:/ColdFusion10/cfusion/wwwroot/
I have added to this list:
C:/ColdFusion10/cfusion/jetty/
C:/ColdFusion10/cfusion/collections/
For each of the two I added, I edited them both:
Data Sources - ALL DATASOURCES enabled
CF Tags - All tags enabled, none disabled
CF Functions - All functions enabled, none disabled
Files/Dirs - Each path (with two entries, each: / and /-) set for Read, Write, Delete
Server/Ports - ALL IP:ports are open, no restrictions
Others - ALL runtimes enabled, none disabled
I have gone in to look at the settings for wwwroot. With one exception, it is identical to the above. That one exception is that all runtimes (under Others) are disabled, none enabled.
V/r,
^_^
