used to work, now it isn't.

  • Compaq laptop screen suddenly begins to roll and will continue to do so even if I hold down the ctrl key.

    My laptop is Compaq Presario CQ50 - 210us Notebook PC running Windows VISTA. All support comes from HP. He developed a mind of your own. The screen starts rolling when he wants to. I have no control over it. This happens with the games already installed HP, IE9 and office. Sometimes I can stop it by pressing the ctril, but once I stop it again.  If I turn off the laptop and wait to turn it back on it starts rolling and sometimes it for more than 10-15 minutes. All updates are in place. Any suggestions is it really a problem? Thank you.

    Looks like your laptop is a numeric keypad incorporated in the standard keyboard.  So, probably, you have NumLock to be able to use this feature.  Find a way to turn off Num Lock.

    It would be better to a question in a forum of Acer...
    Or simply look in your manual...  (page 19); }

  • I get no option restore when I hold down the cmd key

    I have a mac mini with a 2.53 GHz with 4 GB of RAM and 500 GB two HD (a server) end of 2009. I bought the mac mini 2nd hand and restored with a copy of my mac book pro 2010 running El Capitan. I restored it by pressing the command and r after that restart and select the external hard drive with time machine copy of my macbook pro.

    I noticed that the mac mini is extremely slow compared to my macbook pro, which has similar features.  I also noticed that there is no network preferences panel and there are other subwindows preferences (icloud, internet accounts and startup disk) that does not open.

    For these reasons, I tried to restore the mini with copy cloned my MacBook when it was running Yosemite, but when I restart and hold down command & r, I don't get food options and it goes directly to the login screen. I tried with the time machine, a cloned HD backup but I don't get any restore option for either.

    When I try to open the startup disk, which does not either. I seem to be stuck now with a very slow machine and no option to restore to factory settings or my older OS of Yosemite.

    My apologies for the long post, but I am confused as to how to proceed and would appreciate any help.

    Erase the hard drive then install Snow Leopard from the DVD retail. The update 10.6.8 download installer of El Capitan of the App Store, click the install button after the download is complete and the installation program is started on your computer.

  • Why do I need to press the CTRL key to view my additional options in the tool Panel?

    strange!

    all of a sudden, I do not receive my additional tools in the toolbar (left) when I hit the black own in the lower corner on the right.

    It seems to be the same problem in my ALL programs in CS4.

    I thought he had a conflict with my system OS X 10.6.2.

    but after searching for days, I see additional options in the fly out menu become visible when I hold down the CTRL key and click the black own.

    no idea what happened here?

    Click and hold for a few seconds.

  • pretend the CTRL key

    Hello

    I need to 'fake' the CTRL key when I click a control.

    The control by default, present differences in behavior for a multiple selection, If you hold down the CTRL.

    Most users do not understand or want to do this.

    How can I make a multiple selection of an event just click? How can I 'false' CTRL key is expelled?

    See you soon

    For the color coding, please start a new post. I think I answered this one.

    The ArrayCollection collection is created the first time that the application is loading, then Yes, it is initially empty.

    When the user clicks on a date, it is added to the ac unless they had already clicked it, then it is deleted.

    You really need to read the code. It is relatively simple.
