InDesign CS3: Only the shortcut keys work

Hi all, I need help.

I have a client that is running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit edition. It has Adobe InDesign CS3, which he had bought on the internet about 2 years ago. The program has been installed since then. Just today, he began trying to use the program.

The program will load very well. There is a new fine paper. When trying to click on the buttons on the left (Text, pencil, Select, etc.), nothing happens! If he presses the keyboard shortcut (IE T presses for text), it works fine. The buttons are not at all for mouse clicks!

There someone Koe what could cause this problem?

I have disabled UAC, uninstalled and reinstalled InDesign CS3, but this 'thing' will not work as it should. I have run the program as administrator and set it to XP + SP3 compatibility mode. He still refuses to work!

Help please

According to me, turning off Aero if you have the selected 150% will also solve the problem.

Sorry, but I don't have inside of information on getting this problem and I'm sure that even if they understand it, it will not be corrected what anyone as old as CS3.

  • Shortcut keys work not

    Greetings

    Computer of my wife's an A200-JA1, running Windows 7 Home Premium, 32-bit, but the same problem existed in Windows Vista, this isn't a problem to upgrade. If you drag the mouse to the top of the screen, you get the menu to access the shortcut keys, but pressing on Fn + F__ does not work with the function keys. This is more important if she forgets her mouse at home - it leaves the default disabled trackpad, but without having a mouse to access the menu of trackpad at the top of the screen, it cannot activate the trackpad by pressing Fn + F9. It does not work. I tried several other - Fn + F6 or F7 to decrease/increase brightness, Fn + F5 to change the external display, etc., but none of them work.

    There is a small green light between the F10 key and keys 9/0 below and when you press the Fn key on the keyboard, this little button (which looks like four arrows pointing outward) turns on, but that's all.

    Any suggestion is appreciated.

    Mike.

    P.S. somehow and we are not sure of the key combination, but she sometimes keyboard begins to display by using the characters 'red '. For example, when pressing SHIFT + / instead of get a? She'll have an E instead. The only way to reset seems to be rebooting the computer.

    Look for something like 000stthk.exe
    But you can set the options in the general tab to load all services

  • Key 3 C often does not work for several minutes after the start, the other keys work fine.

    I got am HP Pavilion 17-e049wm Notebook PC product #E0J75UAR for about 4 weeks now.  I bought it refurbished.  A week ago I started having this problem.  3, e, d and c keys do not work when I first start the computer all of the other keys work.  Nothing happens when they are pressed.   Sometimes I will restart the computer and they work again, other times they won't, but often will start working if I left the computer set for about five minutes after the start.

    The computer is spotlessly clean.  I've only used a dozen times or more.  Nothing has been spilled on the keyboard.

    Sounds like software for me, but what?

    I am running Windows 8.1 and no programs are running at startup, with the exception of a program start button, but the problem began weeks after installing that.

    Any ideas?

    FWIW, I called hp. They believed excluded material and had me do a full system restore. Problem persists... The things you own end up owning you they say... I guess it's doubly true if you own a hp laptop. Full day turned... One day closer to death. Thanks Obama.

  • Execution of the script using the shortcut key will launch the ExtendScipt Toolkit.

    Run the script by using the shortcut key assign will launch the ExtendScipt Toolkit in a machine.

    Maybe not the Script because it works normally if a double-click is used to run instead.

    Another idea?

    What shortcuts are you trying to use? If they include the shift or Alt/Option keys, then ESTK is raised to the top because it is this that these keys if you hold either button down on launching a script.

  • Update the BIOS of the consequences on the shortcut keys?

    Hello

    I sent my computer to Lenovo for repair, and he said on the form that the BIOS has also been updated. Now, I find that the shortcut keys do not work, so I can't change the volume/brightness etc by using the function keys. Anyone know how to fix this?

    Thank you

    GSF

    GSF,

    Do you need to make updates at all, or did the reboot take care of things? (It's funny how sometimes a reboot will be just clarifying). I guess that your SEO in UEFI with the correct prompt by default/Legacy? You will need to enter in the BIOS for these amendments, which may be different from your previous version of BIOS and the current.

    Whatever it is, it is great to hear that you have things facing up and running again. Thanks for being a part of the FRG of Lenovo community!

  • Change the function of the shortcut key of media on the laptop itself player

    Hey everybody,

    I was wondering if anyone knew a way to change what is the shortcut key to player of media on the laptop itself? I have the power button / stop, Internet, Media Player, Play/Pause, Stop, Rewind and fast forward, but the Media Player shortcut key is pretty useless to me and I would like to change its function, to open Outlook instead, but nobody knows if it's even possible?

    I'm almost certain that there is a way, but I can't seem to find, if someone can help me, then I would be really happy,

    See you soon.

    Hello

    I remember that it was possible to attribute the different functions of the control buttons on several units.
    I put t know which unit you use, but you should check the application of Toshiba control buttons that could be installed on your laptop.
    You should find it in the control panel

    This application could allow lets you configure the control buttons.
    But if this software does not have this option, you will not be able to change the features

  • What is the shortcut key for the underlining of words or phrases?

    I've done this before but forgot shortcut keys for the words highlighted as you type them when necessary.

    Hello
    If you want to emphasize a word or phrase, you can select the word or expression then CTLR + U for underling.

  • When I creat the shortcut keys, it only works after the restart.

    Hello

    I'm trying to creat shortcuts for games and software.

    So, as the guide in F1 says: I right click on the shortcut of the game > properties > then on the desired line, I type the keys I want (example: CTRL + SHIFT + M) > OK.

    Then I test on and it works very well, but unfortunately if I restart my computer (normally), he "forgets" it and when I press the keys, it's whatever it is,.

    But it is not clear (CTRL + SHIFT + M) of the line, it's still there when I check, just does not work...

    So if I want to fix it I have to purge the pipe and type it again.

    That's the problem as a whole, hope you have a sollution for me.

    Thanks in advance,

    Yarden

    Hello

    Make sure that you logged in as an administrator on your computer.

    If you use a program that also has a keyboard shortcut using the same key combination as the shortcut that you just created, then your shortcut may not work.

    You can not use the ESC, enter, Tab, space,. print screen, shift, or Backspace to create a keyboard shortcut.

    For more information, see the article mentioned below.

  • The shortcut key see reader in firefox version 50 do not work or appear in the menu on my system.

    I am running windows 7 32 bit. and we tried it on a few sites where a player is supported. Menu option opens the view as expected, but the shortcut THAT CTRL + Alt + R in the release notes does not work. It is not listed next to the menu item either.

    The keyboard shortcut works for me in Firefox on Windows 7 32-bit 50.

    Please try it in the Mode failure of Firefox. Troubleshooting using the Firefox Safe Mode

    With regard to the view menu > enter drive view not showing this keyboard command, maybe it's because this command works only if Firefox 'sees' seen Reader is available for the page being viewed. And enter the player view is not even appear in the view menu if the page is not a view of the drive available.

    But that's just a guess on the absence of the keyboard command is not displayed. But note that the R is highlighted, then separated from Alt keys, then V then R works for the view of the reader, when it is available.
