- Turn the machine off, then turn it on again.
- Check for breadcrumbs and other foreign objects under the space bar.
- Check what happens with the on-screen keyboard (osk.exe).
- Try an external USB keyboard.

Safari: Will NOT Open and Menu Bar will NOT Respond to input

Safari: When opening Safari it sticks on Top Sites, Menu Bar will NOT respond to inputs and wheel spins indefiantly. Can someone assist? (I am using OS X Lion 10.7.5 on Macbook Pro)

If you updated to 6.1 & the problems began then - you might have Glims installed...
How do I uninstall Glims? | www.MacHangout.com
If not, test briefly in a new or Guest user account on your computer.

When Firefox is open the zoom function (option/command/space bar) does not work in Adobe programs (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator)

Mac OS X 10.6.7
CS 5.5
When Firefox is open the zoom function (option/command/space bar) does not work in Adobe programs (InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator). This happens only when Firefox is open and when I close it the zoom functions work fine again without having to restart the applications.
This is intermittent but happens quite frequently each day if Firefox is active.

MDN doesn't mention -chrome being used for ordinary web pages: https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Mozilla/Command_Line_Options#Chrome
When I use
firefox.exe -chrome about:permissions
I get a usable window, but zoom doesn't work as you noted.
How about using an intermediate page and window.open() for the target page? You can (mostly) restrict the chrome of windows opened that way, but it will leave behind the intermediate window...

Adobe pdf printer save dialog box opens in the background - progress bar shows Not Responding

I have two users who have Acrobat X Pro version 10.1.4 that are experiencing the same things. First, one person just changed laptops and the new one has a fresh Windows 7 Enterprise X64 image and new installation of Adobe Acrobat X Pro. When he used the pdf printer for the first time(after opening the program and accepting the license agreement) he was in MS Excel '07 and chose file>print>Adobe PDF and then the progress bar came up and then showed not responding. After he did this a couple of times with me standing there I noticed that the save dialog box was opening in the background because I could see the icon blinking on the taskbar. He said that his old computer never did this and that it would always open up and ask where to save the file and never show 'not responding' on the progress bar. The other person having the same issue is running the same version but she has had the program installed on her machine for a few months and an older version on before that.
Is there a way to make the dialog box show as soon as you print to the Adobe PDF printer? What is causing this? Is there another way to create a pdf from MS Office like the add-on?

Walloon,
I have an A1048 here w/ the spacebar off and it's identical to the A1044.
I have tried poking at the silicone activator with the end of a pen and with the end of a letter opener,
So if you feel that silicone dome go all the way down and bottom out and nothing happens then indeed some water must have gotten in there.
I thought I was being careful when cleaning the base board with a soapy cotton swab,
Ah hah!
Here's some pics I took of corrosion on an iBook actuator membrane. The A1048 works exactly the same way:

This was a beer spill as I remember. So see the part I call the "overlay mask" it's thin plastic over another thin plastic sheet that has those conductive traces painted on it. Liquid instantly wicks between the two sheets and takes forever to dry out.
It is possible to take the entire keyboard apart and repair the damaged trace w/ rear window heater paint but it's a massive pain. Every one of those keys has a tiny silicone dome underneath it and when you take it apart they go flying everywhere. I'm still finding them on the floor of my shop.
It might just dry out and start working after a few days. Otherwise new/ used keyboard.

Macbook Pro hard drive space issue - iPhoto not responding

        I have a MacBook Pro running snow leopard. Has got two user accounts on it. Comes up with 29 Gb remaining on the internal hard drive. IPhoto was not responding in my wife's account. I think the hard drive space is the issue here. I have had a number of attempts to get the "29 Gb remaining" changing to a higher figure but those attempts do not increase that figure.
      I did keep trying to securely remove trash, by removing some of the events in my iPhoto first, and removing the iTunes libraries of both accounts. When securely emptying the trash, it came up with 27,000 items to delete, and took all night. On re-starting the laptop, the "29 Gb remaining" was unchanged. Any tips to get this figure up, and be able hopefully to access my wife's iPhoto account ? Then try from there.
       I got an iMac running iTunes with the libraries there. So I need no music in the laptop.

I started up the laptop today. Finder showed there was 65 Gb available . Maybe takes a day or two to bed in, any changes from securily emptying the trash. Fired up iPhoto, had a beach ball for 10 seconds, holding my breath "here we go again"...... then it stopped spinning . The application was then alright. Works okay this evening.
Looks like the issue is solved

Space bar zoom not working in Develop module

According to Lightroom help (using F1 button) it is possible to use the space bar to zoom in and out of an image, and as I recall this was possible in both Library and Develop modules in the Beta 4.1 version.
In v. 1.0 it only works in Library module. In Develop module the 'Z' character is the only way to do it (this also works in Library module). It annoys me, and I think it's a bug.
Also according to Lightroom help it is possible to press [Ctrl+ +/-] to select between zoom levels. I can only make [Ctrl+ -] work (zoom out)
Does anyone have these problems?
BTW, I use Windows XP Pro with service pack 2.
Thanks!
Per

Thanks Victoria.
Did you try your PC as well?
I still think it's a bit strange that space bar can be used in the Library module and not in the Develop module. Especially because space bar is unused in Develop module.
Ok, I can live with the 'Z' key for zooming, it just seems a bit strange changing it.
Otherwise I'm very happy with Lightroom. It fit my needs very well.

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.

The space bar does not seem to be working on wireless keyboard wired keyboard works fine?

Can anybody help? The space bar on my wireless keyboard has stopped working. i have tried all the preferences resets and checked the speech prefrences and they're all normal, i've got the old original usb keyboard and space bar works fine. I've tried taking one end of the spacebar up giving it a blow though incase of dust but that all seems clear.
Anyone got a solution?

Youtube loading bar is not responding and the videos stop and start re-loading again and it doesn't move again.

When I start loading a video, it either load the entire bar and freezes or it freezes while in the middle. When it tries to load again it just won't start and I have to refresh but it still freezes up. Also when I try to pause the vide it doesn't respond as well.

I did empty the cahe and history and still didn't work.

I forgot to mention, it does happen the same on Firefox.
I do have the latest flash as well.

Space bar is not working correctly

Especially when I tap at the extreme left or right. Space does not always happen. No nothing has been spilled on the keyboard. Any ideas? Anybody have similar problem?

After clean install Firefox address bar does not respond.Have to use goolge seach to go to a website.

I have just installed Firefox.

If I click on the get more tab in the box there is no response.The only way i can go to a site is by typing in the Google box, or going to history and clicking on a site.

Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you.

My "search" bar is not responding. It's a new problem, since I uploaded the most recent version of Firefox.

Recently downloaded the most recent version of Firefox. I then attempted to use the "search" function. I can type the subject into the search bar space, but when "search" is clicked, there's no response.
Thanks!
Don

Thanks, folks! The "reset" fixed the problem.
Regards!

Tool bar will not respond

All of the Fox Fire tool bars, drop down menus (ex: Tools or File) just have a blank box.
Also, I can not minimize or close Fox Fire without using the taskmaster "end program" function.
If I restart Fox Fire everything works properly for a few minutes, then the same problem re-occurs.
All other internet programs work fine. (ex: Google, Explorer..)
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== After updating to lastest Fox Fire version

You may need to use '''[[Safe Mode]]''' (click on "Safe Mode" and read) to localize the problem. Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes '''before''' starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
See:
'''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''
'''[[Troubleshooting plugins]]'''
'''[[Basic Troubleshooting]]'''
If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling '''one at a time''' until the problem reappears. '''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change''' via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.

Space bar does not start or pause playback in iTunes on new MacBook Pro Retina display model

Does anyone have a solution?

No computer is fault free but Apple MBPs have a good track record. In those cases where problems do arise, Apple has the best support in the industry.
A MBP with 4 GB RAM with the SSD storage should be adequate for your needs.

P.s. On Apple's site I found a refurbished late 2013 model of the MacBook Pro Retina 13 with all of the same specs as listed above (4GB, not 8GB), running OS X (doesn't say which one) but for a bit less than a brand new one. Is this the same model as what they're currently selling new in their store or did they just upgrade everything to match what is being offered in the current "new" model?
The latest MBP models came out in October 2013, so it will be the same, with the same warranty and telephone support. The difference will be that the price will be less and it will be delivered in a plain white box.
I have purchased three MBPs from the refurbished section. I have never been able to detect any cosmetic differences and will go that route again.
Ciao.
