  • Mac pro left shift button not working...

    Hello my mac pro left shift button is not working what would be the problem, is it the major or minor problem plz help me...

    Mac Pros are desktop, MacBook Pros are notebooks.    There are usually two shift keys.  Have you tried both?
    Have you made sure the Caps Lock key is not enabled? Have you made sure the Num Lock key is not enabled (clicking either will disable them if they are enabled).   Speech recognition can make a key give an alternative command if you set that up, try disabling speech recognition to see if that's the problem, or one of the Universal Access settings can do the same.  Go to Apple menu  -> System Preferences to manage those.

  • Help! Left shift key not working!

    all of a sudden today my left shift key has ceased to work. the right key works fine, increasing the chance that it's hardware. I'd like to remove the key cap and see if re-seating it might fix it. I've looked in many places on how to remove it, but no luck. Is there a web site that shows how it's done for a G4 Aluminum? Thanks in advance.

    Marco,
    I've been having intermittent left shift key problems for several months. My laptop is now 3 days out of Warranty, Apple web site says so. Anyway, the only reliable fix I've found is to do a re-boot. I can also (sometimes) get reliable shifting if I slide my finger closer to the outer edge - meaning, no shift if pressed on one side of the key, sometimes shift on the other side.
    I've also had success shifting in one application which seemed to "clear" the problem in the original application. Example: typing in Mail when left shift key stops working. Switch to MS Word, shift works fine. Switch back to Mail, shift works fine.
    I have a feeling it's a combination of software and slowly failing hardware. I feel bad to have waited until after the warranty period, and now the problem is getting worse. My wife was just in for brain surgery, so you can't really blame me! She's doing fine.
    So, my suggestion is to try rebooting to see if that clears a memory buffer problem. Kinda annoying, maybe a future software update will fix the software problem?

  • Why my left shift button does not work??? It works under windows!!

    I once restoreed the computer with Lion, and the left shift worked well at first
    But after while, I started to install some software. Suddenly at some unknown time, it stoped working again!!!
    I suppose it would be the software conflict
    The point is that I don't know which software it is!!

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    *Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

  • 3 letters + left shift key not working - 2 of them + right shift key working

    Hi all,
    as in subject, I have just bought a laptop g50-45, italian keyboard.
    I encountered this problem:
    "LEFT shift key" + "e" or "d" or "c" combinations do not work. Nothing happens.
    "RIGHT shift key" + "e" or "d" work properly
    "RIGHT shift key" + "c" do not work. Nothing happens
    CAPS key + "e" or "d" or "c" work properly.
    I noticed this issue before making any updates of  windows 8.1
    I tried making an update of the bios and later updating windows but the problem is still there.
    I check with an external keyboard and everything work correctly
    I don't think it could be a mechanical problem because "e", "d" and "c" keys alone work properly, so it seems more a software side problem.
    Thank you for your help.

  • If Ctrl+Alt+Shift buttons not working to reset your adobe photoshop cs5.1 preference to default

    How to reset Photoshop preferences (In Windows):
    First, hold down all three Ctrl+Alt+Shift buttons
    Now "while keeping those button held," simply open Photoshop or a file that opens with Photoshop
    As Photoshop loads, you should get a prompt asking if you would like to "delete the Photoshop settings file", Click yes
    You should now have a fresh slate with all of the settings returned to their default.
    Its strange some keyboard cannot reset photoshop after  you press  Ctrl + Alt + Shift buttons.
    And its no pop up to confirm delete
    At finally i found the problems is type of my keyboard not compatible with photoshop
    i changed my old keyboard immediately and its works!!
    If you have problems with Ctrl + Alt + Shift buttons cannot reset your adobe photoshop cs5 preference  , please do change your type of your  keyboard to new keyboard

  • Why are my PalPal buttons not working properly after working fine for weeks?

    I have not touched the site till I heard there was a problem today. The dropdowns are not showing up.
    https://www.appne.net/events.html
    Sometimes if I hit refresh or republish the site, they show up again. then after testing to see if they work, they disappear again.
    I just upgraded to the April 2 release to see if it helps and it did not.
    I talked to paypal and tested the buttons on their testing website and they worked fine.
    I did not use the widget in Muse to create...I cut and paste the code from paypal.com button creator.
    Anyone else having the same issue?
    Please help if so. Thank you!

    Hi Marie
    I checked the drop downs and paypal button, it works fine on my end.

  • Left click button not working on mouse

    Using an HP Pavillion g series notebook with windows 7 and all of a sudden my HP wireless mouse left click button doesn't work. checked to see if it was clean, changed the battery too.  Right click buttonis working as left click now. Driver software is upto date.  Only 2 years old with light use.  What's up?

    I also get what looks like tiny barcodes to the top right of my mouse pointer.
    That is usually a software corruption problem.
    Disk Utility ( Repair Disk ) is a good place to start.

    Your form was created using LiveCycle ES and if you try to edit in Acrobat Professional, you will only have the "Edit From in LiveCycle" option and not "Edit in Acrobat". Also the properties for the PDF shows LiveCycle ES as the PDF creator.
    You may also need to have MS Outlook as your email client or have an email client that looks like MS Outlook and have it MAPI enabled.
    You might want to be more specific about 'not working'. This can cover everything form a read only button not being able to be clicked to almost any JS error.
    You appear to be asking some rather personal data, that I would not send by email, because email is notoriously insecure.
