Address bar loses focus when you type the url or search terms

I type a URL or a search query in the address bar. Following is a list of suggestions (from recent history, bookmarks, etc.).

As soon as I type a character which translates by my current url/search string is not found in the list of suggestions, the list goes - and this, the keyboard focus. The focus seems to go nowhere this - I continue to type, and the characters do not appear in the address bar.

I then have to click on the address bar and retype the characters that have been lost during the update went.

For someone who sails with the location bar regularly, this made the location almost unusable.

  • Address for new tabs bar loses focus after you type the first character

    All new tab to open switches focus to the bar address (which I do), but as soon as a beginning by typing, I can get more than 3 or 4 characters before it loses focus, and no other keys are entered.

    I have a load of search keyword set up, rather than using the separate search bar, so I can't for example, quickly hit Cmd + T to bring up a new tab and then type "im [keyword]" to search Google Images directly.

    The problem is now that I can get the first letter, perhaps the first, but cant type anything else because the address bar loses focus.

  • I just picked up a 12 inch I have pad PRO and bought a keyboard provided by Apple, however I find that the base remains unstable and keeps the hustle when you type, the seller it says it's a design flaw. Can someone tell me if this is the case?

    I just picked up a 12 inch I have pad PRO and bought a keyboard provided by Apple, however I find that the base remains unstable and keeps the hustle when you type, the seller it says it's a design flaw. Can someone tell me if this is the case?

    find it hard to imagine that Apple could sell these defective products.

    If the seller is an authorized Apple reseller, an independent company,

    You may need to ask you if you could see & try a different product sample

    because you might be looking at something that has a defect.

    {According to the related help page, Type position should be more

    stable to use. However if the keyboard is not flat, this sounds like default.}

    Sounds as if you're not at the official Apple Store (apple retailer)

    but, on the contrary, are somewhere else. Could you give more information?

    Some keyboard accessories are made by third party companies; so

    If the product has an Apple product model number, we note here.

    When considering the purchase of an accessory, it's a good idea to test

    and check in the store before you buy. An official Apple Store has

    a different return policy as an independent reseller of Apple.

    Don't know if I can be useful; These chat rooms are usually Apple

    users of products such as yourself, who have taken their unpaid time

    to see if they can help the other users of the product.

    Good luck...!

  • When you type, the cursor jumps around. How can I correct this situation?

    When you type, the cursor jumps around.  How can I correct this situation?

    It is a very common problem when users become familiar with a new laptop. Either your palm/wrist/cuff/bracelet is touching the touchpad as you type or the touch pad sensitivity is set too high and reacts to strong strikes.
    • Someone to watch you while you type to see if you accidentally touch touchpad of the notebook.
    • Go to the control panel mouse configuration and reduce the sensitivity of the touchpad.
    • Make sure you use the latest version of the driver from the manufacturer of the laptop for the touchpad and update if a new becomes available.
    • Disable the touchpad entirely in favor of a wireless laptop mouse.
    As noted previously, this is a very common problem and users are usually completely unaware they do even when it is pointed out to them.

  • Make a custom page when you access the URL of the root of a Web application

    A BC blog post says it's now possible to "make a custom page when you access the URL of the root of a Web App site. For example, if you have a "blog" Web App, items can be made available to/blog/my-blog-post, and you will be able to customize the page/blog"

    Is this possible? It doesn't for me due to unique URL problem yet.

    For example the web page is / banksy - Guide of Banksy

    But web app components must be on/banksy/web-app-item but need to change to/banksy-editions / Banksy choose your weapon (green) | Gallery hang up Banksy Guide

    I don't see any documentation, support BC do not know and ask me the Forum to discuss. Someone at - he found a workaround?

    Thank you

    Paul

    You have a page with the same name as you want for the web application folder.

    1 remove this page from banksy (Dungeon of backup of your content)

    2. change your url web app for /banksy you need

    3. create a folder called /banksy (it will allow you to make a folder)

    4. create an index.html in the folder of Banksy page - put your content to the page that you deleted here

    You will then have an index for the file page and the web application will work...

    /Banksy - index page

    /Bansky/ - index page

    /Banksy/index.html - index page

    / web banksy/something - point app

  • "Scroll bar" is displayed when you move the cursor - Satellite L305D-S5904

    I just bought a Satellite L305D-S5904 for my mother.
    It came with Windows Vista Home Premium.

    I noticed that a tiny scroll bar appears in the location of the cursor sometimes.
    It makes navigation quite a pain.

    Can you turn this feature off?
    To clarify, when you use the touchpad, moving the slider, a tiny "scrollbar" sometimes appears at the point of "arrow" cursor.
    It's incredibly aggrevating!

    I've never seen such a thing before.
    Thanks for the help!

    > I've never seen such a thing before.
    Maybe because you didn t work with this hi-tech touchpad? ;) lol

    It is a touchpad feature that can be disabled in the properties of the touchpad.
    Make sure you have control panel-> mouse

    There must be something on the touchpad settings.
    Here, you will need to disable virtual scrolling.

    Hello lobelia 3206,.

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.

    Since you're on a laptop, I suppose that you have a right of trackpad under the keyboard. It may be that you hit the trackpad with your wrist or Palm when you type.

    Try to change the sensitivity of the mouse and see if that helps or if you have a setting to disable the trackpad when you type. I have

    Click Start, control panel and select slider and change your settings in there...

    I don't know where the settings would be for the Compaq Presario but you can always check with the manufacturer to get the correct settings for your laptop.

    I hope this helps.

  • When you look in the Explorer, there are hidden folders, but when you type the location in the address bar, see the files/folders

    Personally, I am frustrated to discover file that are currently hidden by vista.

    For example my temporary Internet folder located in my Temp folder

    If I open Explorer and browser to the Temp folder is empty - no doubt.   It doesn't even have a drop down menu arrow to indicate that the Temp folder has all the data inside.

    But if I type in the Address bar D:\Temp\Temporary Internet folder, it will appear with all internet data inside the it - except for the index.dat file.  The index.dat file does not appear, even if I have a cleaning program story who insists he's here...

    Subsequently, if I close the browser and reopen it in the Temp directory the temporary Internet folder is still invisiable.

    I checked and rechecked all over the place and the cant "find any feature that dictates why this file is hidden and not accessible to me.

    If anyone has any ideas about this phenomenon?

    What worries me the most is that I (as most people can have too) have hundreds, maybe thousands of records.   Now, I wonder what are those who also hid Vista.

    Hello

    Your question is more complex than what is generally answered in the Microsoft Answers forums. It is better suited for Windows Vista on TechNet. Please post your question in the TechNet Windows Forums.

    Hello
    When using Firefox on a Windows system, I can get a url (no hyperlink) open in a new tab by dragging the address bar while pressing the Alt key on the keyboard.

  • When you type the body of the e-mail, it is invisible

    When you try to type a new e-mail message, I can type in the address, subject, but when I try to type in the body of the email, it is invisible, nothing there, but if I highlight, it appears, but it goes away after it is not highlighted more. I can answer emails ok, just no new type.

    What kind of email service do you use? Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo mail? If none of these, thanks for posting the link to the site where you enter your emails.

    This does not seem normal at all well.

    Alternatively, you can try to disable your addons in the Help menu:


    Help > restart with disabled modules

    Which will restart Firefox with disabled modules. Then connect to your email and try to type again. If the problem has disappeared, trying to figure out what addon is causing the problem by going on Firefox button > Modules or Tools > Add-ons -, by selecting an addon both then choose Activate then click the choice to restart now , when it appears.

    Don't forget to keep logging into your address email to test the typing of the body in the email after each add-on you back on.

    If you find the add-on that caused it, please let us know here so we can warn others. Thank you.
