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?

  • 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...

    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.

  • 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 work to activate the hand tool with Photoshop CS6

    Bonjour,
    J'ai un petit souci sous Photoshop CS6 et je n'ai pas pu le résoudre malgré mes bouquins, et mes recherches sur Internet.
    Il s'agit de la barre espace qui ne fonctionne pas pour utiliser l'outil main.
    L'outil main fonctionne bien quand je le sélectionne au niveau de la palette.
    Quand je travaille sur une image, par exemple avec l'outil plume, si j'appuie sur la barre espace, la petite main apparaît bien, mais je n'arrive pas à me déplacer avec la souris dans l'image.
    L'un d'entre vous a t il déjà rencontré ce problème ? Si oui, comment avez vous pu le résoudre ?
    Merci d'avance de votre aide

  • Fn + space bar zoom not working in windows 7

    I upgraded my T60p 2007 U93 via a new install and now I no longer can change my screen resolution using the Fn + spacebar.  Any ideas as to how to reactivate this function?  I am running the newest bios and I think I have all the correct drivers.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Install System Update 4.0 and let it install at least the System interface driver, the hotkey features, onscreen display etc. Those are the minimum required drivers for this to function.

  • Function keys are not working correctly

    I've been looking all over the various threads and I can't find an answer that solves my problem.
    Here are the details:
    I bought the computer in the U.S. where I live.
    I have a iMac 2.4GHz intel Core 2 Duo  EMC 2133 with a 20" screen. Bought it new in February 2008.
    I have Mac OS X 10.5.8  (I am waiting for my order for OS Snow Leopard to come in!!)
    I have been using a wireless mouse and Keyboard (Love not having cords!)
    Recently, my wireless keyboard got a short and quit working. I went down to the apple store and got a new wireless keyboard.
    I had the computer with me at the genius bar so, yes, the apple employee saw exactly what I have.
    I took it all home got the thing all put back together and got the new keyboard paired up and working with the computer.
    Here are the problems:
    Went to go use the function keys while using iTunes and found they weren't working properly. The F10, F11 and F12 do not control the volume of sound as the keyboard indicates they would, they instead activate dashboard, spaces, and application windows. 
    Following the advice of other threads, I looked over in the system preferences and made sure the "Use all F1, F2 etc." box was unchecked (it was unchecked), things still didn't work.
    I tried the fn key but it appears to not work at all it has no effect on the functioning of the function keys.
    I went under keyboard shortcuts in system preferences and found the F10, F11 and F12 keys, it confirms that those keys control spaces, dashboard and application windows as they are performing but shows no options to either reassign to volume control (as marked on the keyboard) or make the fn key work.
    I've gone back and forth trying various combinations of checked and unchecked boxes to see if anything would work, so far I've come up with nothing.
    A couple more important or interesting facts:
    Yes I have turned off and taken the batteries out of the old keyboard. My bluetooth connection currently shows it as disconnected.
    I have restarted the computer.
    One thing I find odd; when I go under preferences and go to Keyboard and Mouse when I go under the section "Bluetooth" it shows Bluetooth mouse with the name of the mouse and the battery level. BUT nothing is showing up under bluetooth Keyboard, I can't figure out how to change this and don't know if it is contributing to the problem.
    When I go under the bluetooth logo on the top bar I find the mouse and both keyboards referenced, the old keyboard is shown as disconnected and the other two are connected. I have tried to update the device's name but it doesn't seem to let me.
    I have double clicked on the device under bluetooth and it shows the new keyboard as discoverable, paired and connected. Hence, I am using the new keyboard to write this inquiry.
    Please, any assistance would be of great help. I have tried to be thorough in order help narrow the possible problem. Thanks!!

    Just thought I'd let you know.  Our suspicions were correct, it was the OS. After I installed Snow Leopard (10.6.8) all the problems were corrected.  I also updated the RAM from 1 gb to 6 gb. The mac is working all around better. Sorry it took so long to get back to everyone. My superdrive had pooped out. Rather than replace it I got an external drive from OWC connected with firewire 800.  So far everything is running very well, as far as I can tell this external drive is better than the original superdrive. My superdrive has always acted funny, infact I returned the first mac I got after a week because its superdrive was also malfunctioning. Anyway, all that to say everything seems to be fully functioning again.

  • ** Filtering is not working correctly in ALV (REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY)

    Hi Friends,
    We have one Z report that output is displayed in ALV. We are using the standard FM 'REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY. 
    We have requirement to remove leading zeros for the field like Material Number (MATNR), Equipment Number (EQUNR) etc. We did the changes by applying the field catalog properties as below.
    lw_fieldcat-lzero = space.
    lw_fieldcat-no_zero = 'X'.
    After this, the MATNR and EQUNR is displayed correctly in the ALV. (Leading zeros are suppressed). But, when we do filter for these fields, in the filter window it displays all the values with leading zeros.
    1. We don't understand why it is showing in the Filter widow with all leading zeros. All it shows all the records instead of unique items.
    Later on, we removed the above fieldcat coding. Then, we have called the CONVERSION_EXIT routines (in the domain) for the fields to remove leading zeros.
    Now, the MATNR and EQUNR is displayed correctly (without leading zeros) in ALV. When we do filter, it is also doing filtering correctly. But, when we do filter which have EQUNR having long values (after zero suppression), it is not working correctly. i.e no items are displayed in the ALV.
    Not only for this items. If we filter character columns which have long text, it is not filtering correctly.
    2. It is not able to understand why the filtering is not working for long items. But in the standard report, the filtering is working correctly.
    We are using SAP ECC 6.0.
    Friends, can you clarify the about doubts. It is surprising for me.
    Kind regards,
    Jegathees P.
    Our customer is asked to remove the leading zeros for the numeric field

    Hi Clemens Li
    I agreed on your point. When we define the Internal table the type for element EQUNR & QUMNR , we are referring the SAP data element for EQUNR, QMNUM field.
    Our doubt is even though we refer the standard data element, in the ALV display, it shows with leading zeros and also it creates problems in the filtering and in the filter window all values instead of unique nos.
    Hi Abhii
    I have given below the fieldcat coding.
    Friends, can you kindly clarify the above said problems. Since we use SAP ECC 6.0 any notes or patches apply is required. ( this is the basic functionality in ALV, that is my doubt).
        wls_fieldcat-col_pos   = wpv_pos.
        wls_fieldcat-fieldname = wpv_champ.
        wls_fieldcat-tabname   = wlc_tabname.
      wls_fieldcat-seltext_s = wls_fieldcat-seltext_m
        wls_fieldcat-seltext_l = wpv_libelle.
        wls_fieldcat-ddictxt   = 'L'.
        wls_fieldcat-no_out    = wv_no_out.
        APPEND wls_fieldcat TO gt_fieldcat.
    Kind regards,

  • SSRS 2008 R2/SSRS 2012 Tab Delimited setup is not working correctly in Report Designer

    I have changed a RSReportDesigner.config to add a tab delimited option for report export, but it is not working correctly in vs2008/vs2010 report designer. I get a duplicate of CSV (comma delimited) in the export dropdown list.
    I have tested SSRS 2008 R2/SSRS 2012 on Windows 7 64 bit professional.
    It is working correctly in the report manager.

    Hi Dave0323,
    According to your description, you want to export your report into TXT file and change the delimiter to be a Tab. Right?
    In Reporting Services, when exporting to a CSV file, we can change the default field delimiter to any character that we want, including TAB, by changing the device information settings in the configuration file. For example, to use TAB,
    update the FieldDelimiter setting to <FieldDelimiter xml:space="preserve">[TAB]</FieldDelimiter>. And we can change the FileExtension to be TXT if we want to export it into a TXT file. So in this scenario, we just need to modify the configuration
    file like below:
    The result looks like below:

    CSV Device Information Settings
    If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

  • Screen Not Working Correctly- Horizontal Lines

    For the past few weeks, when I open my computer, sometimes the bottom half of my screen is just a lot of lines or is not working correctly. Sometimes if I tilt the screen enough, it will go away. But I don't know what to do!

    First step in user troubleshooting is to turn the phone off and back on. If that doesn't help, then a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will restart. If this does not solve it, then a restore from backup, and finally if necessary, a restore as a new device.
    You do not indicate what iPhone version you have. You also do not say if the phone has been dropped or any user damage to the screen. If anything, you can make an appointment with the Apple Store Genius bar to get the hardware checked.

  • Sleep not working correctly

    Since updating my Late 2010 iMac to Moutain Lion the sleep function does not work correctly. They system keep waking up for no reason. The monitor comes comes day or night. I cannot figure out a fix or work around. Any ideas?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything. This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it. Step 1 The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account. Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up guest users” (without the quotes) in the search box. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.” While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin. Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem(s)? After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it. *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing. Step 2 The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows: 
    Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
    When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
    If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
     Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. *Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.
