Space Bar Gone!

I just noticed that while my space bar on the keyboard is o.k. for Text Messaging, Calendar, You Tube, Maps and Notes, the space "bar" for Mail is now a very small "button" next to the "@" and "." buttons; however, there is no longer a space bar or button on the Safari Browser. Anybody else having the same problem?

Actually, you don't have a space bar in a Safari URL block, however when you change to the Google search bar or other data entry box, the space bar appears.

My space bar starting "playing" again !!

I know some of you had the same issue as me-- The space bar would not play the project anymore. It would just un-check layers in the Project pane.
For some odd reason it started working again about two days ago.
Does anybody have any ideas why?
-marco

Hey, I know that it seems to be linked to a tab through fields feature. Same thing here. After making a parameter change I have to Click on the playhead then use the space bar to play otherwise it will toggle on/off layers.
Also around the same time for me the scrub through playhead feature also is GONE. I cannot use the arrow keys to scrub a frame at a time. what a pain. And as outlined in a recent post for me I cannot simply click from app to app when motion is open. I must use "command+ tab" to switch app which is also a huge pain.
Now Ill that said Im convinced its not just a motion thing as much as it is a leopard deal. Im staring to thinks its the driver for the slimline keyboards which came out a few leopard updates ago.

Why does my space bar give me a forward slash?

My keyboard has gone mad on my 13" mac book pro.Caps lock gives me a P, P gives me caps lock, enter gives me } and space bar /.
Has anyone got any ideas? I have reset the PRAM and tried everything else. Help!

Wireless keyboard n key is putting a space and my space bar does not work

My wireless key board keys are not working ... my n key adds a space my space bar is = and my delete is arrow left... no clear pattern to the incorrect key strokes. I have gone into language and text and keyboard and it does not help. I also rebooted and removed batteries

m, n, and space are only one bit apart in the code they generate. It sounds like it might be a hardware problem in the keyboard.

Space Bar hot key not working after recent Indesign update

Hi all
I just did the most recent update (3-31-14) and now the space bar hot key isn't working, nor is the hot key for duplication (option). So, uh, anyone else notice this, and if so, Adobe, you gonna fix this in the update? These two functions missing are messing with my work flow.
Thanks

Try restoring your InDesign preferences. Here's how:
Trash, Replace, Reset, or Restore the application Preferences
You're assuming that it's an InDesign bug that you lost your shortcuts. That is almost always a local computer glitch. None of the rest of us have that problem, we would be flooded with reports if that is true.

Upgraded to snow leopard, now safari scrolls a page down when space bar is hit and sometimes crashes. Any ideas for a fix?

I just upgraded to the new snow leopard, now my Safari is acting loopy. At times, the page will scroll down when I hit the space bar. As I type this discussion the screen isn't paging down, but if I go to the tab where I have facebook loaded and hit the space bar, it acts as a page down key. I've had safari crash about 5 times tonight for no apparent reason. The delete key sometimes will act as a page back key. I really have no idea whats going on.
I've had keyboards go wacko on me before due to something being spilled on them or a wireless problem, but this keyboard is a wired keyboard and nothing was spilled on it. It's rather new and I'm quite certain it's not a keyboard issue.
No settings have been changed on the computer. The only thing different today from yesterday, is the fact that I upgraded to snow leopard.
Help would be pretty sweet.
Thanks,
Jason

Why do none of the links that I put in my outgoing yahoo emails no longer underline themselves and become live when I finish typing them and hit the space bar?

Previously, when I typed my email address in an outgoing email or cut and pasted a link from my browser bar the link would become 'live' when I hit the space bar or 'enter' key. The link would turn blue and underline itself and the person receiving the email could just click on that live link and be taken to the site. Now the link does not turn blue or underline itself and the receiver must cut and paste the link into their browser bar to use it.
Why? I did not change anything in Yahoo or Mozilla.
I have deleted and reinstalled Java to no effect. I am using html in Yahoo.

As it turns out, many others have been having similar issues on other browsers. It seems that maybe Yahoo! is taking a much longer time to load or something like that. Either way, its been working on and off all week, and the same issue even showed up yesterday with IE 8 instead of FF. It still loads faster than IE 8, but again is spotty. Some people think the issue may be with mail.yimg.com or s.yimg.com, which I could see was the loading url in the left corner whenever Yahoo! Mail was refusing to work. A couple of people said blocking it caused the issue. Alternatively, some people suggested blocking it to solve the problem. Does anyone have any information on that? Again, I have no add-ons that would be blocking any urls, and my firewall hasn't any records of it. I really don't want to do anything to mess up my browsers more than they may have already been. Thanks for all of your help so far!

What key(s) do i type to change language from english to other? i am writing s story in dual languages. i was told to click command and space bar together but it is not working.

what key(s) do it type to change language from english to other? i am writing a story in dual languages. I was told to click command and space bar together but it is not working.

Command Spacebar opens Spotlight as you have found out. If you want to change languages you need to say what app you are using to write the story in, I'm guessing you are using Pages or MS Word. If that's the case
Pages: Open Inspector - Click the T tab - Click Language and change your language.
MS Word: Tools Menu - Language - Choose your language.

- Restoring the iPod from backup via iTunes
- Restoring the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod via iTunes

How to make the words show up without me prompting by tapping space bar?

Now that I have gotten all the text on the front page to appearall together and not one line at a time, each line prompted by me hitting the Space bar, how do I get the words to appear all on their own without me tapping the space bar? This will be exported as a video to Youtube so the viewer won't be able to tap the space bar to make the video progress.
Isn't there something called ”automatic”? I want to just click the “Play” button and have the text just appar all on its own.
Mireille, thanks for telling me about that Build feature. It worked nicely. I chose “iris.”
~ Lorna in Southern California

Oh now I see! It was in that hidden drawer, and to see that drawer you had to click Other Options. Ok. So now I set it to Automatic! Merci, Mereille. ~Lorna

I want to always be able to page down using space bar, but some web pages seem to disable this.

I often use the space bar to page down in web pages rather than scrolling with the mouse or arrow keys, but in the last few months I've encountered a number of pages that don't seem to allow this browser feature to work. For instance, space bar doesn't page down on https://medium.com/about-work/65d4740f7a2f, although it works fine on mozilla.org and nearly all other sites. The problem is specific to particular pages, so I think it's unlikely to be an add-on problem, and it's certainly not that I've turned on caret browsing. As far as I've tested, the arrow keys still work to scroll such pages, and the mouse always works, so it seems as if space bar has been specifically disabled. (Generally the pages on which space doesn't work seem to be specialized for phones, judging by layout and font size.) Is it possible to reject whatever code is disabling my browser so that my space bar always works?

Another possibility would be a userscript. A userscript is generally written to work on a particular site, although it also can be made to work globally on all pages.
To run a userscript, you require either the Greasemonkey extension or the Scriptish extension.
And somebody to write the script! You can propose a new userscript to the community and see whether anyone is willing to create it for you.
Ideas and Script Requests forum: http://userscripts.org/forums/2
(I searched briefly on userscripts.org but didn't see a script for this purpose posted there. Please be careful in testing scripts from the site as many recently posted scripts mess with your Facebook account when you visit FB.)

Space bar leaves ghost spaces after reboot???

This is STRANGE.
Not sure if this is the right forum thread.
I have a USB Apple Keyboard (aluminum) I bought in March 2009 for my MBP 15" (C2D, late 2006, 2.33MhZ). It has worked fabulously (I had to get used to it; I used to like the MBP keyboard for typing, but now I hate it!). Suddenly today, the *space bar* on the USB kb just doesn't work anymore. I typed in Safari, Nisus Writer Pro, but the space bar on the USB kb will not work (all other keys work, and the spacebar on my MBP works). When I fixed permissions (the keyboard is immaculately clean), and rebooted, nada. When I tried to reset the PRAM (googled), nada. However, right after reboot, when I opened safari, and clicked in the search field, *all the spaces I tried to type BEFORE the reboot appeared*! Like a player piano, the spaces were being typed out, the spaces that I *had already typed*—but which never appeared—until now, AFTER the reboot. I can stop it by hitting any other key,
I can repeat this strange behavior. Does anyone have ANY advice on this?
I have latest snow leopard 10.6.1, 3g RAM (4 in slots).
Thank you, Richard
UPDATE: It actually seems like there is something LAYING on the space bar instead. I tried to type 5 spaces, but when I rebooted, the spaces kept being typed for about 30 seconds, and then stopped. There is nothing on the space bar, however.

Actually, now it's also some other keys plus the shift key. Shift-V doesn't work, neither does Shift-Left Curly Bracket.
There is something really wrong!
Off to apple store equivalent (no Apple store yet in Paris)
thanks, and if anyone has any other advice

I can edit on Premiere Pro 6 files, but after a dozen keystrokes, the space bar and cursor keys stop working while the save function works

I can edit on Premiere Pro 6 files, but after a dozen keystrokes, the space bar and cursor keys stop working while the save function, render workspace function, export file are still operational. How can I fix it so I may complete my assignment?
Besides DaVinci Resolve, Adobe Creative Suite 6 is the only software on the machine. I am using Windows 7 Professional 64-bit Operating System on AMD FX 6100 six-Core Processor at 3.31gHz and 32 GB RAM memory. There are two SLI-bridged GTX680 NVidia cards.
The software was very stable for the last six months, working with 720P proxy files from 2.5K masters (Blackmagic Design Camera). I am working on a feature-length project that exceeds 1000 edits. I have broken the file into 2 one hour segments.
I have deactivated the software before reinstalling the entire OS from scratch. PP6 was very stable for 48 hours. Then the freezing space bar returns. After a dozen strokes into the project, same problem. I have made cache files store next to originals, I have deleted preview files if they were corrupted and causing instability. Am I missing something?
I have Microsoft Security Essentials for virus protection. I double checked the memory for damage/defect. Nothing says that the motherboard or other components are damaged.
I am in film competition overseas and need to have deliverables in less than a month's time. I lost the last two weeks troubleshooting and this crisis came at an inopportune moment of the project.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Still getting software freezes but found a way to mitigate for the mean time.
Upon launching Adobe Premiere Pro, hit CTRL-ALT-DEL to launch TaskManager as well.
You will want to highlight Adobe QT32 Server.exe
Right click and select "End Process Tree"
You will get considerable stability in the program, long enough to get timing of cuts done. Be sure to save often.
If the program freezes, do not hit Save. You definitely want to avoid saving the corruption into your TimeLine
CTRL-ALT-DEL to relaunch the TaskManager and highlight Adobe Premiere Pro.exe
Right-click to "End Process"
No need to reboot the whole system; just launch Premiere Pro again and continue with the session. Note that your work reverted to Last Save.
Hope this helps until the bug is fixed.

I have been able to wake my macmini by hitting the space bar - but since installing 10.7.4 using the 1.4Gb combo this wake method no longer works. Now the macmini shuts down, and I have to switch mains power off and on again before powering up the macmini

Since purchase of my macmini (2011 model) I have been able to wake it from sleep by hitting the (wired) keyboard space bar.
However, I recently updated the OS to 10.7.4 using the combo (1.4Gb) update, since when I cannot wake the macmini in that way.
Now, after putting the macmini to sleep, pressing the spacebar causes it to shut down.
I then have to switch mains power off and on again at the wall socket, after which the macmini starts up from shutdown condition.
I am by no means an expert, and have not been fiddling with settings, so I am in need of advice on what could need resetting to allow me to return to the previous simple 'wake up' approach!
Thanks.
