Why can't I close a message once I've read it using the Escape key anymore

Until recently I have been able to close a message, once read, with the ESCAPE key but this does not seem to work any more.
Any thoughts on how to fix this?

'''Ctrl + W''' are the keys to close an open tab.
There is an addon which uses Esc key.

  • Why can I not Convert a Microsoft Office Document to a PDF using the Context Menu?

    Why can I not Convert a Microsoft Office 2013 Document to a PDF using the options found in the Context Menu? (Ex: Convert to PDF, Combine Supported Files into PDF?)
    I updated to Acrobat XI PRO recently, but now i'm unable to combine or convert microsoft word docs to PDF.
    In Adobe Acrobat X I had this feature below, and it would combine Microsoft Office Documents all into a single PDF. Now I no longer have this issue in Adobe Acrobat XI Pro. It seems like it was program named Adobe Elements that was running the conversion.

    Ajlan. That page is showing as not available. Would the fix apply to Adobe Acrobat X and XI?

  • Why can't my Apple TV detect my Mc Book Pro to use the Airplay

    Why can't my Apple TV not detect my Mc Book Pro. I recently installed the Mountain Lion OS and wanted to use the Airplay feature.

    You need an Apple TV2 or later, running the most current OS, plus a MacBook Pro 2011 model or newer.

  • Why can I not hear anything on my phone 4s- if I touch the volume key it adjusts the head phone sound, I haven't listened to head phoNes for MOnTHS!

    I was loving my phone until I got off work today and noticed my phone has NO sound. I use the "airplane mode" a lot for work. If I adjust the volume it show headphones-I haven't listened to head phones but once when I got the phone MONTHS ago.. I cut the power to it off and then back on and still NOTHING- I know my phone rings but I hear absolutely nothing when I answer it and forget making a phone call. The only other issue I've had with the phone was a bad SIMM card( mind you it was the one that came with the phone) I was told to remove it to get my Phone working again- I did and it worked great.... Until now.

    The headphone switch may be stuck.  Try plugging and unplugging the headphones a few times.

  • Why can't I send text messages to more then one recipients from the UK?

    I have an iPhone 6 with the latest operating system.  I travel to the UK frequently. When I attempt to send a text message to multiple recipients it comes back as undeliverable.  However I am able to send textx to single recipients.  This only happens in the UK That I know of.

    It's ask the person who has that phone - that's where the problem is.

  • Why do I keep getting a message saying: "Firefox.app wants to use the font "Bodonti SvtyTwo ITC TT Book" on the volume "Backup" ?

    Underneath this alert it says:
    "This font is not installed. Allow Firefox.app to use this font?"
    How can it use this font when it is not installed?
    Why does it have to keep asking me no matter how many times I push Allow or Don't Allow?

    You're welcome and thanks for confirming that the instructions worked.

  • Why can't I log in immediately after resetting my password? (using the new password)

    Hi,
    I can't find the proper forum for this so I'm posting it here.
    It is a problem with logging in to this very support board.
    It's not your basic "I lost my password" problem.
    I have an Apple ID. I try to log in and it says "wrong username or password" (even though the same username-password combination will log me in to iTunes).
    So I go through the process of restting my password, aswering security questions, which I do successfully and I reset my password. Then I go to log-in to the support boards, with my new just-changed password, and it comes up with the same response "wrong username or password".
    Over and over again. So in order to even seek any assistance, I need to make a whole new profile just to ask the question on this support board.
    I thought that apple ids and their passwords worked across all apple programs. As I said, the Apple ID/password combination that I use for iTunes will be rejected on the support boards, and even the ID/password combination that I've just reset will not allow me access to the support boards.
    Any help please?
    Thanks,
    Phelps

  • Why can't I update Firefox 5.0 to 5.0.1 using the in-built update module?

    It just keeps saying it's already up-to-date...

    The same here. FF 5.0 says it is up to date.
    It may be due to this update being too new, maybe tomorrow or after that it will be made available to Firefox itself..

    Why can I no longer text message on the larger format by turning my phone on its side?

    Hi,
    Since iChat 6 the SMS option in the Menus has disappeared.
    However if you add the number to a Buddy List as if it were  Screen Name but with the leading +1 (as in +1234567890) it will work over AIM.
    It only works to US phones on some Carriers.

    Try the Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there. <br />
    ''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' <br />
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4/5/6/7 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. <br />
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "Continue in SafeMode."''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
    If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. <br />
