Stuck in INSERT MODE

Does anyone know how to get my Mac out of "Insert" mode when I am in Word? If I go back into text to change something - the computer deletes as I type. There isn't an "Insert" key, so I have no idea how I got into this. So frustrating...

I assume you are using Office '08 for Mac. One solution is to go to "help" and type "insert." A drop down menu comes up. Go down to "Insert column < left." The verbiage might be slightly different. This works for me. However, there must be an easier answer from the experts.

  • My iPodtouch 5th generation is stuck in headphone mode, while no headphones are present! Please help!

    Hello to any others out there with my issue and have found a solution!
    My ipod touch 5th gen is brand new! Just purchased this product end of July and I love it to death. Today however I ran into an issue that I simply cannot solve on my own. I was oovoo when my ipod randomly cut off and now it is stuck in headphone mode! I haven't even used my headphones all day so I really do not understand. I am not one of those people who drops their electronics or spills liquids on it (no offense) so there should be no reason for this issue. I have tried EVERYTHING sensical to fix this but now I'm lost. please if anyone with the same issue has fixed theirs, please let me know the secret. I mean I didn't spend 350$ for this to happen within 30 days.
    Thank you for your time!

  • HT201263 My phone is stuck on insert usb cable connect to itunes screen. this happened during my iOS 7 update.

    I was updating my iPhone 4S to the iOS 7 system. During update my phone froze. It's stuck on insert USB cable connect to itunes screen. I've already tried turning my phone off holding Home key while inserting my cord into phone and nothing worked. I've tried DFU mode and that wont work either. What the heck do I do now? So annoyed with this.

    I've also restarted my computer and still nothing.

  • Getting stuck in Headphone mode not necessarily a hardware issue, is it?

    I've read on the net that cleaning the headphone jack can correct this issue. I've also read that inserting the headphones and removing them many times (I think I've seen 7 or 8 times) can also correct the issue. None of these issues worked for me.
    What I did notice is that the presence of my headphones was indeed being detected. With the headphones plugged-in, I set the volume to a low volume, for example. With the headphones removed, I set the volume near maximum. Mind you, the phone is in Headphone mode, and won't normally play out of the speaker. But when you insert the headphones, in this example, the volume jumps to the low setting, and when the headphones are removed, the volume jumps to the near maximum setting.
    So insertion and removal of the headphones is indeed detected. So this isn't a hardware issue, then, is it? There's got to be something else going on.

    Well, I backed up, erased, and restored to get proper functionality. No longer stuck in headphone mode. I tried compressed air, and cleaning the jack. Those attempts didn't fix me. I believe it's just a bug that will eventually get fixed, or a setting that will reset the logic associated with the headphone.

  • Phone stuck in recovery mode after Update

    So, last month my phone got stuck in recovery mode while I was on vacation, saying I needed to insert a sim card. There was already a sim card in it, eventually it just stopped working & would not let me restore. I took it to Apple & they replaced it.
    Just tonight it popped up telling me there was a new update, so I updated it. @ the very end, it said update failed.. blah blah recovery mode error 1013. Same error I got last time. I don't get it? Why does this keep happening to me? I purchased a new macbook pro back in August, could this have something to do with it?
    Thanks

    NOT HAPPY JAN!!!!
    Both my daughter and I had the same problem on different computers. Hers is an iPhone 4 and mine, a 5. Both got caught in recovery mode. I did follow the above mention troubleshooting however to no avail. Took it into the Apple shop yesterday and they restored it back to the factory setting for 6.0.1. Lost all of my content on the phone.
    The Genisus stated that is it a Windows problem.
    Yes, I agree, that Apple has lowered their delivery and service. It is true, that Apple is the new Microsoft, that it is ok to have problems when upgrading and when it hangs, just reload.
    AVOID THE UPGRADE AT ALL COSTS.

    Hi Guys,
    My iPhone is stuck in a mode where it thinks the headset is still plugged in.
    I cant get any sounds through the speaker. Cant hear sms or emails arrive. If the phone rings i hear it but pple cant hear me or i cant hear them.
    The phone works fine with the headphones plugged in.
    I have tried all the usual solutions, inserted and removed the headset (at least 50 times)
    Soft reboot
    full restore
    Nothing seems to work. I have searched on this and it seems to be a well know issue but there doesnt seem to be any firm solutions that i can find to fix the problem

    If no change after inserting and removing the headset at least 50 times, powering the iPhone off and on, an iPhone reset, and restoring the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.

    Ok I dropped my iPhone while listening to pandora but I didn't have my headphones in. When it fell my speakers got a little wet and now I can't hear anything because my iPhone is stuck on headphone mode. Can anybody help me get off that mode????

    If no change after inserting and removing your earbuds or headphones several times in a row, your iPhone has hardware damage from the drop and from getting wet.

    Also try to delete the ipod software file located in C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\Apple Computer\iTunes\iPhone Software Updates to make iTunes download a new copy when you connect in recovery mode. Maybe the file stored on your PC is damaged.

    f you put your device into recovery mode by mistake, restart it. Or you can wait 15 minutes and your device will exit recovery mode by itself.
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201412

    Make sure that you have iTunes 12 or later on your computer.
    Put your device in recovery mode.
    When you get the option to restore or update, select Update. This will reinstall iOS without erasing your data.
