Hello

If you have or can borrow one, plug in a USB keyboard and see if it works ok. If so, then it is likely that the Board of Directors of your laptop is damaged and must be replaced. Good luck, Rick Rogers, aka "Crazy" - Microsoft MVP http://mvp.support.microsoft.com Windows help - www.rickrogers.org

  • Windows 7... the stuff that makes me NUTS! (so far).

    (1) quick launch icons taskbar: I have always found it much faster to just a shortcut for the most often used programs right on the taskbar. But now, when I do it, like Excel, IE, etc., whenever I click a quick launch icon, the icons move, and I can't click on it again to open another instance. Sometimes I prefer the 2 browsers used, but that the taskbar converts the quick launch icon to a real window, I can't do it this way... very frustrating!

    (2) why can't put an icon from quick launch to the desktop on the tasbar and then of course, there remain there?

    (3) why Excel & PowerPoint randomly become temporary files while I use them. For example, I'm working on an Excel doc, doc is already named and saved, I am struck record every 5-10 minutes and then when I hit save one of those moments, I get some kind of message of sharing violation, and the document tries to save as a sort of random temporary file. I then have to name the doc again and save it to that I meant to make him... arghhhh!

    I would like to get any feedback/help! Thank you!!!

    I know I hate it. I don't mind that they have added a new feature, I don't understand why they took the old characteristics.

  • wireless keyboards that do not answer or type incorrect characters

    Hello, I contacted Dell a couple of times and everything they have done has tried to update my drivers that did not work, or they had me use a wired keyboard that still had the problem.

    When typing my keyboard makes a break, don't type, types the same character repeatedly, takes up to 30 seconds between the characters to be able to type a different and at other times, there is zero problem.  This can happen several times a day.  It happens with IE, Firefox, type in word, try to access a Web site.  Its very frustrating.

    I use Windows 7 with a wireless keyboard.  If anyone has any ideas on how to solve this problem, I would appreciate it!

  • If I click once on an e-mail in the message window while I closed the preview window, I opened that makes e-mail?

    If I click once on an e-mail in the message window while I closed the preview window, I opened that makes e-mail? I worry because I don't want to open a message that my bad-ware download on my computer. If the preview window is closed, I noticed that the number of e-mails read does not change when I click once on e-mail. Can I assume that unread means that it has not been opened.

    Read the answer! Your question is answered there.

    Read / unread is purely an indicator. It has no real meaning. If you go into the menu (alt + T) tools > options > advanced > reading and display, you can change when a mail is marked as read in immediately to 10 seconds (this is what outlook express used) up to 1000 seconds.

    The software marked the email read is that this logic can go. It's always "BOLD", the software did not mark the message read.

    You open the mail? It is an unquantifiable statement.

    In the context of Thunderbird an individual mail is not a discrete element that is stored. It is a part of your data for mail/News. So try to equate open to action just does not fit.

    Thunderbird received mail as a series of lines. He collected in an email that he stores in a file with all your other emails for this folder. You open the file in that the mail is stored? Totally irrelevant Thunderbird opens to get mail every time that mail is added to the folder or to view a mail in this folder.

    Each time a letter is displayed (any mail) the file all your emails for this folder are saved in the opening and reading.

    If clicking on the mail list 'open' the file. Probably not, it was probably already open. The file is opened, read, written to and updated probably half a dozen times since Thunderbird started so if you click on the mail to see won't change anything good at all. If the e-mail file has been closed it will be open to view the contents of the mail, but he is perhaps already open.

    The key is that you try to apply assumptions to mail that simply do not apply. That's why I sound as if I'm going in circles.

    You also may ask, when I fill the kerosene tank my electric light.

    • The software mark mail as read when you say
    • It opens files underlying storage constantly. Clicking on an entry may or may not cause the opening of the file.
    • Your mail is not in a file on its own, it is in a file that contains all the messages in the folder and the mail deleted until the folder is compacted.

    How is it I can no longer edit/rename bookmarks to something that makes sense to me? Before I updated to this version, that I could mention, for example, www.blahbankingblah, 'my automatic monthly payments.

    You can rename a bookmark in bookmarks (library) Manager in the details pane lower right, after selecting a bookmark.

    You can also do it in the bookmarks bar (view > sidebar) through the context menu > properties.

    "Bookmarks > organize bookmarks ' has been renamed to"show all bookmarks"in Firefox 4 and later versions.

  • Configuration that makes your application come under folder Applications - Version 4.6 and higher...

    Dear developers,

    I want to know how make a 3rd party application report to the Applications folder instead of download folder (perhaps during OTA installation)... What is the configuration that makes this behavior? I knew that on the definition of position on the homescreen but which will preferably with only download folder...

    This isn't an impossible thing since I saw an application called Documents to go... I installed OTA, three different applications has been referenced with this jad (I knew that reference multiple cod files in a single jad)... But what I wonder is that these three applications came to the inside of the Applications folder instead...

    Hope someone could stumbled on this...

    Thank you...

    I didn't say it's impossible.

    I guess that if RIM (or carrier) put your app on their distribution, they'll put it anywhere where they want.

    For the rest of us, we are banished in the downloads folder.

Note that my PC doesn't have the mobo it is changed or upgraded. I ask because a friend gave me a key which it has been used on another computer (same System Builder) saying that it will improve the Windows 8 operating system, and it will no more need. I really don't want to have any nagging restriction because my copy has been hacked, upgrade in Greece, costs 100 euros.
