Why is text jumping down a line when typing?

If there is 2 or more rows of text and I move back my cursor to type more on a previous line... the cursor randomly jumps down a line or so and I start typing on an unintentional line? Any idea why this might be happening?
I'm using the wireless keyboard. Battery is almost fully charged so that can't be the issue.

After some testing... I think it's because the right side of my hand is over the arrow keys and it may be hitting those keys without me noticing. Pretty sure that's what is happening.

Dropping down a line when texting

How can you drop down a line when texting

On my Z10 the Return/Enter Key is present until a Contact is added.
So if I want to drop down to start a new line,
I add the recipient after I finish writing the text.

Why do I get faint horizontal lines when I print from elements 12 mac

why do I get faint horizontal lines when I print from elements 12 mac

Hi Ben,
I can't reproduce that behavior. The only two things I can think of at the moment are (1) you accidentally added a shortcut as a panel shortcut instead of a diagram shortcut or (2) the name of the object you specified isn't for the "Multiply" node, but for some other node (you said "Multiplication" in your initial post) that can only be dropped in certain places (i.e. maybe it's a node that is only valid in Simulation diagrams). Can you post the following lines from your LabVIEW INI file so I can look into it further:
QuickDropDiagramShortcuts
QuickDropPanelShortcuts
Let me know,
-D
Edit: Yeah, what he said.

After saving a htaccess file, why the text is on one line

hello all,
I am a webmaster and some time I have to setup a htaccess file (.txt file)When I edit it with Textedith, I make a modification and I save it. Nothing works.
When I open the same file with a PC, all the text is in one line. of course it will not work.
Can some one tell me why the file is not saved in the format when I open it, so it saved in one line?

TextEdit isn't the best choice for editing configuration files, since it doesn't use Unix line endings -
I thought TextEdit did use Unix line endings (LF). The reason it is all one line on a PC is that PC's do not, and thus will only display new lines if line endings are Windows format (CR + LF).
I don't think there should be any problem editing config files with TextEdit, but TextWranger is better, and it also easily handles file names that begin with a dot.

Text jumping in browser, even when duplicating 2 pages in iWeb

My pages within one website(made in iWeb) are when viewing in a browser, constantly shuffling up or down. Even when i duplicate a page, and only change the text, but not the textbox. Something to do with reproduction in HTML?
Any help much appreciated!, would like to show all my pages in the same "lay-out", without jumping text (on the bottom of the pages)

Crumster,
Is your Made in iWeb badge in your Footer or in the Body Content of the page? Also, it looks as if you are trying to maintain a constant height webpage across your site (in addition to width), right?
I think it might be worth examining the Page Size settings for your pages in the Inspector Page tab. Especially on pages that have some empty space at the bottom, like yours, you might be experiencing some variability of display between the Body Content area of your page and the Footer area of the page. It helps to turn on "Show Layout" under the "View" menu in iWeb to visualize the interplay between Body and Footer. I think to decrease the most variability, you can adjust the Footer value to ZERO and then align your badge and other "footer-type" text in relation to the border of your Content Height setting. Try this and see if it helps.

Why don't I get google results when typing keyword into the location bar?

When typing keywords into the location bar, instead of taking me to Google I get a "problem loading page the connection was reset" error. And the domain it automatically takes me to is domainnotfound.Internetserviceprovider.net. Is there any way that if I don't type in a full url and just press enter it will give me the google results for those keywords? thank you for the assistance

Sounds that your ISP is detecting whether a DNS look up fails in redirect you to that optimum.net url.
In such a case you need to contact your ISP and ask them for alternative DNS servers that do not redirect you or you can set other DNS servers yourself.

Why the text field frame's line width cannot be adjusted?

I am now working on a PDF file with some text fields with combo turned on, specifying the number of chars the fields can hold. Their frames' line width is not thick. This is what I want. This is shown in the picture below:
But when I try to preview the PDF, I discover that these fields do not follow what I have specified: no matter what thickness I choose, the frames are always thick. I want them to be thin!
See below:
Why is it so? What should I do? Any ideas are welcomed.

I have sent my form to you to take a look. Thanks for your support!
By the way, I have uninstalled Acrobat 8 and installed Acrobat 9 Pro, but I am facing serious problems. Whenever I open Acrobat I will face an EULA page and if I click "Accept" or "Decline", the whole program will close immediately.
I have googled and added an EULA value (=1, in hex) in the regedit. No effect. I want to uninstall Acrobat 9, and there is NO RECORD in the Install/Uninstall section in the Control Panel. I am using Vista Home Basic.
I am now frustrated. I tried Acrobat 9 and it failed, and now I can't even uninstall it and revert to ver 8.......My God....

Why does text show differently (vertical alignment) when viewed on a PC than on a Mac?

The text shows misaligned (different) when viewed on different platforms (Mac or PC)
The Menu section on this website ~> Menu
Is there a way around this or a fix it. I was trying to look at the code in Dreamweaver and I did see some weird (>Span<) tags, I'm wondering if it might have to do with it.
The goal is to align the right side (prices) perfectly. I even had to do the 'tracking' individually to every line. It does work, depending on what platform I'm working on, if I work and publish from a Mac, it would look fine no matter what browser I use, but when viewed on a PC the text gets misaligned. The same happens if I work and publish from a PC, it would show misaligned on a Mac.
Hope there is a reasonable explanation for this.
- Thank you,
Ricardo

The primary cause of the misalignment is the fact the text is using a "Web Safe" font. A "web safe" font is not a single font. Rather it's a list/stack of fonts for the site visitor's browser to try until it finds one that's available the visitor's computer. That means on one computer the text is in one font (i.e. Arial) and on another computer it's another (i.e. Helvetica) with the subsequent fallout caused by the varying character widths between the two fonts. The best way to reduce this variation between site viewers is to use a Web Font (either an Edge Web Font or a Self-Hosted Web Font).
The alignment still won't be entirely consistent across browsers (or even versions of browsers), because each browser has it's own text layout engine and the engines do sometime change, but the variation will be radically reduced.

I use Go Daddy Web Mail and FireFox may be preventing me from being able to put text into the subject line when composing an email.

As the question / statement says, When in Firefox, once I've started my webmail application through Go Daddy, I can compose an entire email filling out all the required info. But, when I put the mouse over the 'Subject Line' and click, no cursor appears.
Having walked through this with Go Daddy, they are convinced that it's FireFox because we opened up their webmail with 2 other browsers and both allowed me to plug in a subject line.

Why do i get a black box when typing in an email address.

when i start to type an email address when sending an email, a black box appears over the "to" area. sometimes it covers just one line and sometime it covers the whole email "to" area. it eventually goes away, but in the meantime my email address lines are blocked out with this black box

If you can't boot in the usual way, try a safe boot. During startup, you’ll see a progress bar, and then the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out these instructions. Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all. Note: If FileVault is enabled on some models, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is on a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. If you're able to boot, launch the Console application in any of the following ways: ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid. Select the most recent panic log under the heading System Diagnostic Reports on the left. If you don't see that heading, select View ▹ Show Log List from the menu bar. Post the entire contents of the panic report — the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header and body of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.) Please don't post shutdownStall, spin, or hang reports.

Re: Tecra M11 - Cursor jumps to random locaation when typing

Does anyone know how to switch off the trackpad when using a mouse, or advise on what the problem is - when I am merrily typing away, and I'm fairly fast, I suddenly find I am typing in the middle of what I typed already, instead of at the end of the line as normal. I cannot work out whether this is interference from the trackpad, or I am hitting something else in error! I tried switching off the trackpad using Fn F9 but it doesn't seem to work.... is there another way to disable it?
Cheers all!

What is probably happening is your palm is touching the TouchPad while you are typing.
To avoid this problem, you can turn off the Touchpad completely, or simply turn off "Tapping" in the Advanced Touchpad Settings.

Why doesn't my screen scroll up when typing after updating to 8.3?

What am I doing wrong?
After updating my iOS to 8.3 on an iPad I have been unable to see my curser once it progrsses down the screen behind the keyboard. The screen doesn't scroll upward to show the cursor.
This is very annoying since Id like to know where I'm typing and if I collapse the keyboard and touch the screen to move the cursor, the keyboard pops back up and hides the cursor. This typing feature works fine on my iPhone 6s with the upgrade but not on my iPad.
Any help would be appreciated on this matter

IPad slowing down hesitating especially when typing in dialogue boxes

My iPad has become slow to respond, especially when I type in a dialogue box.

1) Have u tried removing all apps from the multitasking bar? Excessive amount of apps could be using up ur iPads memory.
2) Have u tried restarting ur iPad?
3) Try completely draining the battery and leaving it off charge over night and then charge it the next day to try and squeeze out all the battery in the iPad.
4) Are u on the latest software version? (iOS 4.3.3) update if not.
5) have u almost used up all the space on the iPad? Go to settings > general > about > available

After updating to v. 6.X.X, vertical lines appear around the cursor when typing in webpages such as Gmail and Facebook that persist, obscuring text and other pixels in the webpage. Didn't happen before this update.

I noticed after updating to Firefox version 6.0.1 that vertical lines the same size and shape as the text cursor remain behind on the screen as the cursor moves (either while typing or by using arrow keys). This is most obvious and annoying in text-heavy applications such as when typing in Gmail, Facebook, and work webmail, for instance. (Interestingly, it's not happening now as I type this.)
This is very annoying because these lines obscure parts or even entire letters in words that have been typed. I thought that it might have been a Firefox customized 'skin' I added at the same time as updating, but I reverted to the default view and the problem remains.

Not executing a line when debugging

Hi,
In Visual studio you can pull the cursor over a line so that it is not executed. Is there any way you can do this in Netbeans 6.5?
int I = 0;
I++
return I;
Lets say I am trying to jump the I++ line when debugging, how would I do that so that I would return 0.
Thanks

I'm not familiar with Netbeans, but in Eclipse, there is a 'step over' icon in debug mode that allows you to step over the statement or functtion rather than step into it (even through you step over it, it is still executed). I imagine Netbeans debugger does a similiar thing. I dont think any debugger will skip over a line with out executing it.
