When i hold down a key it doesn't let me repeat it multiple times

On ichat, if i want to type a letter such as "hhhhhhhhhhhh" many times, it doesn't allow me to. It only gives me the option to add an accent to the letter. This is bothersome to me, how can I turn this off?
Please help!

Sorry ... I read but was unfortunately distracted from your original post. You have a system that came with Lion. The Lion that is on your system is only for your computer and cannot be downloaded from the app store again because you never purchased it officially through the App Store.
Try this for making an external USB/DVD copy of Recovery on an external disk. internet is still required for reinstall, though, I believe: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4848. But at least you have a separate Recovery Partition if you ever need a fully new and empty internal disk.
Your assumption is incorrect. Although he may not be able to download it from the App store he can download it directly for the Apple servers using the recovery partition on his original drive.
All you have to do is start the install routine and then point the install to an external hard drive. Once the download is finished the computer will reboot to start the install. At that reboot disconnect the external drive so the install can not start. Boot the computer back into the OS on the internal hard drive, which is what will happen automatically once the external drive is disconnected. Then connect the external and copy the files from it that were downloaded. Right click on that downloaded package file and select Show contents. In the contents of that package is a file called InstallESD.DMG. Copy that file out of the package and burn it down to a DVD or USB thumb drive and you now have the Full Lion Installer. I have several of them laying around on different hard drives and 2 USB thumb drives which I have used to reinstall Lion on my 15" MBP.
Sorry OP I should of just typed this out in my first post.

Try these two steps:
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM

Try reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

Cursor will not move

First, everything was working well for a few days, then it didn't. It connects and turns on fine (the menu is present and clear). I cannot move the cursor. It will not go up, down, left, right or back. When I try to reset the light blinks but I still cannot move the cursor. I have reset and unplugged. I have even tried using the remote for my iMac (after pairing). It will go to screen saver and there it stays until I goto TV or power down. I do not believe it is a remote issue. I repeat ... the cursor will not move. addendum - When I repress anything on the remote, the light blinks ... nothing else happens ... nothing. grrrrrrrrrr arg!

Fixed it - the pairing and unpairing was the key - once I realized I was looking for the number of blinks, I it worked out. I think it was opposite of the instructions but maybe I don't know my left from my right. Merry Christmas

Have created multiclip. Moved it from browser to viewer. Saw that the 2 angles were not sync'd. Held down control/shift on one angle to scroll through clip to put them into sync. Both angles move at the same time. What is happening?

Created Multiclip in browser. Moved it to the viewer. Saw that they were not exactly sync'd. Held down shift/control to move one angle to match the other. Both angles move at the same time. What is happening? I have done this before and have always been able to re-sync my clips to do my edit.

correction needs to be made to step #14, I typed:
14) Point to the start or end one of the clips, when you see the icon showing arrows going either way, right click and drag your clips to roughly match up with the timeline selection, then zoom in further and adjust the clip start and end points to match up exactly with the timeline selection start and endpoints.
Here is the correction, THE CORRECTED PARTS ARE CAPITALIZED:
14) Point to the start or end OF one of the clips, when you see the icon showing arrows going either way, LEFT-CLICK and drag your clips to roughly match up with the timeline selection, then zoom in further and adjust the clip start and end points to match up exactly with the timeline selection's start and end points.
Another Correction:
Originally read:
Addendum: IF you have 2 files selected and click "Edit" to go to Edit view, it will give you the file of the clip you selected first, not 2nd. You must then go back to MT view, de-select the clip you selected first, then de-select the clip you want to edit, then RE-select the clip you want to edit.

My Imac will not move beyond the Grey Screen with the spirl spinning any ideas

Recently I rebooted my IMac, it now will not move past the grey screen with the spinning spirl.
Please help

Turn off your machine, then power on whilst holding down cmd+alt+p+r until the screen goes off and you hear the chime again.
Also, what iMac do you have/how old?

I had to take my hp back to factory setting and reinstall itunes, when I tried to use Itunes match it said i had to Deauthorize all my computers. I am using the same computer and desperately need access to my music.

I had to take my hp back to factory setting and reinstall itunes, when I tried to use Itunes match it said i had to Deauthorize all my computers. I am using the same computer and desperately need access to my music.

When you reset to factory settings, the computer is de-authorised.
In iTunes menu Store > View Account > sign in > App Store > Deauthorise All.
Once done, authorise this computer iTunes.
Note: you can only do that once a year.

My cursor will not move on my MacBook Air. I've forced a shutdown, but it still won't move, and now I can't move the cursor to click my user image to log in. What should I do?

Trackpad does not work properly

How can I do to acquire and save date in the same time and in the same file when I run continual my VI without interruption.

I've attached a VI that I am using to acquire amplitude from Spectrum analyzerse. I tried to connect amplitude ouput to the VI Write Characters To File.vi and Write to Spreadsheet File.vi. Unfortunately when I run continual this VI without interruption, labview ask me many time to enter a new file name to save a new value.
So, How can I do to aquire and save date in the same time and in the same file when I run continual my VI for example during 10 min.
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
Your VI does work perfectly. Unfortunately this not what I want to do. I've made error in my last comment. I am so sorry for this.
So I explain to you again what I want to do exactly. I want to acquire amplitude along road by my vehicle. I want to use wheel signal coming from vehicle to measure distance along road. Then I acquire 1 amplitude each 60 inches from spectrum analyzer.
I acquire from PC parallel port a coded wheel signal coming from vehicle (each period of the signal corresponds to 12 Inches). Figure attached shows the numeric signal coming from vehicle, and the corresponding values “120” and “88” that I can read from In Port vi.
So I want to acquire 1 time amplitude from spectrum analyser each 5
period of the signal that I am acquiring from parallel port.
So fist I have to find how can I count the number of period from reading the values “120” and “88” that I am acquiring from In Port (I don’t know the way to count a number of period from reading values “120” and “88”).
Here is a new algorithm.
1) i=0 (counter: number of period)
2) I read value from In Port
3) If I acquire a period
i= i+1 (another period)
4) If i is multiple of 5 (If I read 5 period)
acquire 1 time amplitude and write to the same
file this amplitude and the corresponding distance
Distance = 12*i). Remember each period of signal
Corresponds to 12 Inches).i has to take these
values: 5,10,15,20,25,35,40,45,50,55,60............
5) Back to 2 if not stop.
Thank you very much for helping me.

HT203176 magic mouse cursor will not move

Magic Mouse cursor will not move. Scroll works. right click works replaced batteries

I'm so sorry but I overlooked your response in the previous post.
I think you there are two options to try.     One;
Reset the SMC (Systems management control)      https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT201295 ....
Two: You may have a problem with interference which could be from a TV set, particularly one of the new smart TVs, anything electronic you've either moved into the room or changed its position.   That could include another mouse or trackpad.
Again, sorry.

Iphone 4 will not unlock but the same portion of the screen is active using SMS or any other feature. What is the issue?

It won't recognise it at all, but luckily I backed up very recently.
I've booked an appointment with an Apple store who promise a working iPhone within 10 minutes of your appointment, whether fixed or a brand new iPhone.
Thank you both for your suggestions. I'll leave the question unanswered incase people have any other suggestions or similar issues.
Cheers.
