Spaces Big Problem I need help badly!!

When I held down the mouse on the spaces icon in the dashboard i noticed an "options" choice which I selected. There I was offered to assign a hot key. I put in "Z" by mistake (meant to put in Option Z. Now I can't get rid of it so every time I try to type the letter Z up comes a spaces!!! So now I can't ever type the letter. I cannot find the preference to delete to fix this. I tried changing the hot key & it just accepts the new key BUT also keeps the old one. I've searched with spotlite but only find the pref pane not the preference itself. So what do I do? I'm trying to enter the registration key for Toast, which has a Z in it & I'm stuck.
Please help, help, help

Just so others will know if it happens to them. I spent over an hour with a very savy guy at applecare. It was a harrowing experience but he was determined to help without telling me to reinstall the system which I very much appreciated. Long story short after deleting almost all the plist prefs we finally found that the culprit was "Drag Thing"! I had assigned the Z via an option offered when I hilited the Spaces icon in the Drag Thing dock. By setting it there I could NOT get rid of it until I deleted the Drag thing prefs which are in a folder in the user library preferences. All is well now & I hope this may help someone else

  • I have a big problem and need help.

    I was trying to delete some files when I got a message that said that one of the files contained a program that was running. I close out the program and deleted the file but something happened. I closed out Windows Explorer and notices all my desktop and taskbar icons were gone and replaced by the Adobe Reader icon. I tried to run Google Chrome and it tried to open it with Adobe Reader. I then deleted Adobe Reader to see it that would fix the problem it didnt. Instead when I tried to run Google Chrome the second time it pulled up a window telling me to choose a program to open it with. I'm stuck and dont know what to do. The only program I can open is Windows Explorer now. PLEASE HELP!!!

  • I need help badly with my ibook and palm pilot

    Good day. I recently fixed my ibook and my palm to sync with each other. I configured my palm to sync with entourage. I then realized that it would be much better that if I sync my palm pilot with the palm desktop. Gow do I now reverse this? How do i cancel entourage to sync with my pal pilot. please advise. need help badly on this. thanks... i just like to feep my files organized and i find it difficult using entourage...my palm pilot is a palm TX...

    I also have a Palm handheld. I use iCal and Address Book more than Entourage. This is what I did:
    At first, I tried to adapt to Palm Desktop. I didn't like it, so I looked for the *iSync Conduit*. I found it and installed it. Then, I ignored the Palm desktop software (except the HotSync utility) and have used iSync with iCal and Address Book since.
    I know that doesn't answer the question about switching from Entourage, but Desktop isn't that great either. iSync is what I recommend.

    I am having the same issue. I am updating to 6.1.3 to see if that helps. It is really annoying. It seems to vibrate as well as hiss on my ear piece speaker while on a call. I keep looking at the phone thinking maybe another call is coming in.

    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.
    Best,

    have you tried quiting the app, ie removing it from the multitasking bar also, and then retrying it? Failing that, flick the ipad into airplane mode for a minute, then flick it back, wait for your wifi to connect then try again.

I got the jumper securit again but again never worked. I tried everything but it never worked after that event. Normally i had to inform it at first and give it back or give it to the repairing but i couldn't have time. Now i have to do it this time. Now i want to change this or something else but in Turkey.

  • Another Infinite Login Loop Problem - need help badly

    Hello. I need help.
    When I start up my iMac (24 inch last generation model) I can't log into the OS. When I enter my password I see the default OS wallpaper (nothing else) then it kicks me to a blue screen then right back to the login. Same thing over and over. I've already ran disk utility off of the install CD to repair permissions, etc... but no luck. This even happens when I enter into safe mode. I'm running the latest version of the OS.
    Can anyone help me?

    Restore the bootable backup/clone or Time Machine backup. Without one, you have a difficult situation. First thing to try is boot with your install disc, run Disk Utility, and repair the disk.

  • Lenovo B560 Battery problem! Need help asap

    Hi, I have a big problem with my Lenovo B560.
    Recently I started noticing the charging icon in the bottom right corner of the screen would go briefly from "charging" to the icon for "not plugged" (just the battery). If I moved the power cord a bit it would go back to normal.
    Days later it happened again but this time a little more persistent. I didn't give it much attention. And then suddenly, last weekend it stopped charging altogether, despite being plugged. I tried different power sources, I tried moving the cable around, nothing. With the little time I had left before it completely discharged, I googled the problem and saw somebody in a thread saying "it's likely tha battery, it needs replacement", which made sense to me, since my laptop is 3-years old. 
    I ordered a replacement battery and waited. Today it arrived and I put it in, eager to use my computer and have everything going back to normal. I turned on the computer, battery was at 50% but it still did not charge. It showed the battery icon like before, as if it weren't plugged in. I moved the cable around again and noticed it would briefly flash back to being plugged. And then it stabilized on "plugged in, not charging" but it was suddenly at 3%. However, at least it didn't go down this time. 
    I tried reinstalling the Power Management Driver, restarted, everything was the same. Then I went to Device Management, I disabled the Driver and the icon dissapeared. Restarted, reinstalled driver once more, icon was still gone.
    Then I noticed in another thread somebody recommended taking out the battery and turning on the computer with just the power cord plugged in. So I took out the new battery and turned it on with just the power cord. And it worked, and that brings us to the present moment. Both batteries sit next to me and my computer is currently working simply on the power that is supplied by the power cord. 
    Can anyone please tell me how to get out of this mess? My job relies greatly on this computer working, and I need to fix it asap. Any kind of advice is welcome. Thank you!

    Update: the computer will not turn on anymore, not even with just the AC cord and no battery. Please help.
