  • I am unable to Type or use the keyboard in Firefox 18.0 anywhere, including the search bar and URL bar. How should I fix this?

    I am unable to type anything or use the keyboard to type in Firefox. I use Firefox 18.0 installed on Windows 7.
    I am able to paste in the URL bar and the search bar, but absolutely not able to type in it.
    I already tried the 'reset' option but are still unable to type.
    Also tried Firefox in safe mode with disabled addons but are still unable to type.
    Install a new copy of firefox after Firefox uninstall and delete the old "Mozilla Firefox" in windows folder. but always impossible to type.
    Please tell me a solution to this.

    Have you tried restarting the computer?

    It is possible that you have activated the keyboard by chance to one who does not work in Firefox.

    Windows remembers the setting by application keyboard layout and you have probably changed the keyboard by accident via a keyboard shortcut.

    • Make sure you have the language bar visible on the Windows taskbar
    • You can do this via the context menu of the taskbar: toolbars > language bar
    • Check the language setting (keyboard) keyboard for the application that has focus via the icon in the language bar
    • You need to do that while Firefox has focus because Windows remember the keyboard by application setting

    Control Panel > regional and Language Options > keyboards and languages > change keyboards > advanced key settings > change key sequence

  • Now, many of my keys are shortcut keys. For example, 'L' now disconnect me and "N" takes me to the computer. I can no longer use the keyboard.

    My big cat crossed my laptop keyboard Dell (with Vista) and now many of my key take me in crazy places. This happens in all programs. I can't use the keyboard to type. Is anyone know how it happened and how to fix it?  Thank you very much

    Hi Ruby94947,

    Things you want to try:

    O examine your keyboard for any accumulation of dust, dirt, liquids or other particles that could be causing the keys to type characters.

    Ø Disengagethe (FN) key on the keyboard, make sure that the led of the button turns off.

    O check if your number lock (NumLock) key is enabled. If so, the key to disengage.

    O confirm that your keyboard is set to the English language.

    1. open regional and Language Options by clicking the Start button, click on the Control Panel, clicking clock, language, and region, and then clicking regional and Language Options.

    2. click on the keyboards and languages tab and then click on change keyboards.

    Make sure that the keyboard is set to the English language.

    If the problem persists, contact DELL for assistance.

  • Arrow keys on the keyboard. Try to use the keyboard and mouse.

    New Gateway laptop with windows 7. I play a lot of games online and I can't find anywhere how to change this, or if it's the phone or the operating system. When I try to play a game on IE with the arrows that they automatically stick causing the game almost impossible to play, also when you try to use the keyboard and the touchpad the touchpad locks when the keyboard is in use. Help, please.

    It is a known problem if all goes well with Flash and Internet Explorer.

  • Using the keyboard to set the visemes?

    Hello

    I am new to the animation but enjoyed working in animation character. I created a puppet that animates perfectly for my needs. I just copied the layers from the mouth of the example of character "Seth" in Preview 3.  I have a prerecorded script that I analyzed, and he did a great job. However, there are a few spots that are just a bit.  For example, there is a noise of 'W', which is totally forgotten in the analyzed auto-sync.  If I could just type "W" at this stage it would be perfect.  Another place adds an extra mouth for some reason any one movement fraction of a second after the audio is done.  If I could 'remove' this movement, it would be perfect.

    I know that I can make entries to the keyboard, but I may not know how to do.  I can't stay with her in the real-time recording, and idle, I can't make the words to type the keys.  I broke the lip-sync in visemes, I thought I could get closer, but I still may not know how to do...  Are there tutorials advanced, you can direct me to?

    Thank you!

    -Stephen

    We do not yet have a tutorial on this, but there is a brief mention of viseme mounting 30 seconds in this video: https://vimeo.com/146802911

    Allows you to change the "timing" and remove the visemes you want. For the addition of new via the keyboard, select the element of path of puppets in the timeline panel, twirl sync settings of the lips in the properties panel, then click on the small point in front of the entrance to the keyboard so it turns red (you probably also want to disable the Red Audio front point, or simply turn off the microphone) - now When the character is selected, you should be able to use the keyboard to trigger visemes (use the first letter of the viseme, for example W for "W - Oo") during the rehearsal or recording. If you don't get the right of synchronization, you can select the keyboard plug in the timeline panel and the timeline > Split Lip Sync in visemes even once, which will give you a bar for each viseme.

    We are working on making it much easier!

  • Satellite A660-133 - Vibrations when I use the keyboard or a touchpad

    Hello
    I have a Satellite A660-133, when I use the keyboard or the touchpad I can hear a lot of vibration from the stop of the laptop. I think that this is not normal, but actually the same model showed in the shop does the same thing. What do you think about this?

    Is there anyone who has this model and who is able to tell me what is its experience in this respect?

    Thank you!

    Hi davmat,

    I m not Satellite A660 owner, but a friend told a. He never spoke to me such a problem expect that s a great notebook with powerful hardware and he likes the design. I agree with him that s a great notebook from Toshiba!

    Anyway, if you think that it of not normal, you need to contact a service provider authorized in your country. Guys can check this problem and maybe you need a new keyboard, but this can be exchanged under warranty.

    You can find a list of aspic here:

  • Play the Spider Solitaire Vista using the keyboard

    Hi, I have recently acquired a new computer with windows vista. Also, my old computer has windows vista. I am a big fan of Spider :) solitaire However, I don't like that play SS with my keyboard... I hate using the mouse. On my old computer, I had no problem using only the keyboard. Now, with this new version of vista (?), I can only use the keyboard to show me the clues... Shortcut keys changed? or y at - it no hotkeys on this new version? Thanks for your help!

  • Cannot left click to advance to the next image in the image windows Viewer. I can move forward using the keyboard

    Cannot left click to advance to the next image in the image windows Viewer. I can move forward using the keyboard

    I have a folder of photos that I opened to see several thumbnails. I can left click on a picture and it will open full screen. Then I left click on this image and the next should show but nothing happens. I can use the keyboard arrows to move to the next photo, but I can't use the mouse. The left click works for everything I use it for. I've used regsvr32 /i shimgvw.dll and he said DllRegisterServer and DllInstall in shimgvw.dll succeeded. This does not solve the problem. This isn't a big deal, it just bugs _ on me because I'm a perfectionist. Thank you for your response and any other help would be appreciated.

    ===============================================
    If you use Windows Picture and Fax Viewer... left click of the photo is
    not supposed to promote the image. (some image viewers work this way
    but not Windows Picture and Fax Viewer)

    Left click on the blue arrows at the bottom of the screen will advance
    photos.

  • Access to the context using the keyboard rather than the mouse menu?

    I'm back using Windows (7) to my new job after using the iOS for 15 years.

    Now I find I want to use the keyboard to do many things that you can do with the mouse on iOS.

     
    The "Accelerator" keys are very practical. So - if I type , then

    - then I activate the command paste in Word, for example.

    Access keys are also available via a context menu. However, the only way to access the context menu - I can find - is a right click with the mouse.

     
    So now I'm back using the mouse AND keyboard, which sort of defeats the purpose.
     

    I find no way to pop open a context menu by using the keyboard. Any ideas?

    Unfortunately, if it is not a "integrated" way, it won't help, because I can't make any changes by programming to my computer either. It's very tight here :(

    Thanks for any help.
