• Infected w/Spyware, etc? Keyboard typing on its own.

  Hello everyone, I am new to this site and a novice in computer science. Lately my computer makes a beep when you tap email, Word or even search engines. Once it beeps, the keyboard no longer work more, or more often it starts to type many characters on its own. Very frustrating and I am at a loss of how to get rid of it, but also how it could have been infected in the first place. I ran ComboFix first and can provide a newspaper if need-be. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  In addition, I ran MalwareBytes before and here were the two topics with which he kept coming:

  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\scrfile\shell\open\command\ (Default)
  HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\regfile\shell\open\command\ (Default)

  This sound signal as being due to the blocking of the system or frost and it's sound motherboard. What I think, is that while you type a reason any PC cling and stop working and you might not notice and you pressing the keyboard or press the key on the keyboard to solve the problem and when it released to hang it then wrote to evertything you have entered but doesn't not visible here.

  I suggest to check the update and make sure that everything is updated and you have the latest Service Pack for Windows.

  Also, you can try running:

• Does anyone else have an iMac that starts typing on its own?

  I try to type a password and the computer just starts typing, indefinitely. I'll write an email and the computer hits back again and again and again. Then it starts to beep me - the beep that says: "has already hit this key! I have no control over what he types. My only recourse is to restart, which works most of the time. Until yesterday.

  This goes on 5 months patiently trying a bunch of solutions, none worked. Of course, it produced intermittently, making it much more difficult.  However I called and talked to a counselor while he was hoping it would help. Nope.

  I went through 5-6 people from Apple for probably 7 + hours on the phone. Finally, they said make a genius bar appt and bring it in. Yes, I did. The whole darn 27 "thing. They gave me a new keyboard to try. Nope. They suggested I have reinstall the latest system. Yes, I did. Nope.

  I'm getting pretty well supplied upward.

  I will say, in all the conversations I've had, I'm pinned a rude woman. Each representative was pleasant and everyone has, according to me, tried very hard to make it work.

  Unfortunately the last woman I spoke with, a Counsellor who gave me his phone number and extension, did not return either my emails, nor my phone messages.

  So I'm screwed out of. When he arrives, of course, I can't use my machine $2000 +. Fortunately, I have a laptop or I would scream bloody murder. Maybe I need to start screaming bloody murder. I want that they fix it or give me a new. 5 months is enough.

  Someone else has a computer that writes on its own? Of course, I'd advice anyone can offer.

  I've had this happen a couple of weeks - except that it was on my end 2012, Mac Mini, on which I had just done a clean install of El Capitan.  The Mac Mini was using the Apple bluetooth - like the iMac keyboard.

  I've only had the question on the login screen - it would just start repeatedly typing in the password field.  To solve - and to see if was indeed a problem with the keyboard - I went to a wired keyboard - and the problem stopped.  This little told me it was the keyboard.  To troubleshoot further - I happened to have a spare identical keyboard - so I have the bluetooth of the iMac keyboard odd and not matched the keyboard problem of the Mac Mini.  I paired the keyboard blue tooth with the Mac Mini iMac and paired the bluetooth problem with the iMac keyboard.  I did a reset SMC, PRAM/NVRAM reset and start secure on the iMac and Mac Mini (precaution).  The problem never happened again.  I was not yet the keyboards of return - and it has been a few weeks.  If you do not have a wired keyboard or bluetooth spare parts - you could try the following:

  1 turn off your iMac keyboard pairing.

  2. join your iMac keyboard

  3 stop the iMac

  4 perform a SMC reset (iMac, you delete all the devices to the iMac - unplug the power cord at the back of the iMac.)  Wait at least 15 seconds.  Reattach the power cord to the iMac.  Wait at least 5 seconds.  Press the button.

  5. when the iMac restarts - stop it again.

  6 reset the PRAM (memory NVRAM) - by simultaneously pressing the keys CMD OPTION P and R, after hearing the boot chime.  Keep hold the keys until you hear the chime again.  Then keep hold the keys down until you hear one more chime.  Release the keys - let the iMac start.

  7 judgment of the iMac, once again.

  8. perform a startup by holding down the left SHIFT key when you hear the boot chime.  Now keep the left SHIFT key until you see the progress during the start bar.  On the login screen - it should be a message from Red starting at the top right of the screen.  Allow the iMac to sit at the display of connection for 5 minutes.  Connect to iMac - (it will be slower than normal).  Allow the iMac to sit to the desktop for about 5 minutes - do not run all the apps.  After 5 minutes - stop the iMac.

  9 start the iMac and Note If the keyboard is no longer slap on its own.

• keyboard changed on its own!

  I have a MacBook Air 3.1 (OS X 10.6.8).) These days many of the keys on my keyboard have changed meaning (on their own!). The letters are OK, but punctuation, parentheses, accents etc seem to comply with some other keyboard. If I go to System Preferences and then the keyboard I donat see a way to change things. I tried to do a reset SMC, but in vain. What can I do? Thank you

  HE'S

  Have you checked the system preferences > keyboard > input methods.  On the left column, do you have what language selected?

  Ciao.

• Keyboard has its own life!

  I have a brand new T410i.     Running Windows 7.    I got it for a few days.   A couple of times already they keyboard has just gone 'crazy' on me.    I'll be typing away and then the cursor moves to the right, text will erase as I type it.  It happened when I was browsing the web and it will click links on its own... or if I do a Google search, search to return results once it will just open one of the links... The pointer will be difficult to control.    The only thing that fixes it is when I stop and restart Windows.    No rhyme or reason as to what triggers it.   My laptop was on during a few hours today and then he began to act up.    Any ideas?   I checked the drivers and according to Windows, it uses more updated drivers.

  Hello

  To be honest, it looks like a malfunction of the keyboard.
  I put t know any option that could cause this and I m sure that this option does not exist.
  I think that you can solve this problem by replacing keyboard.

  This laptop doesn't seem to be old. The guarantee must be valid and so I recommend you contact a local ASP from Toshiba which would be able to replace the keyboard in conditions of warranty. This service should be free.

  Good luck

• Windows Vista home - start menu continues to appear on its own every few minutes

  My Start menu keeps popping up on its own every few minutes. Obviously it should only do this when I click on the Start button on the lower left side of the screen.

  Can someone advise me on how to fix the hole?

  Try to install a program that records all activities on your keyboard. Maybe that your keyboard is broken and sends this signal every few minutes...

• The mouse jumping around corner on its own (TX2000 tablet PC)

  HP needs to fix or replace my HP TX2000. The mouse cursor keeps jumping to the bottom right of the screen on its own. I realized that there are a lot of heat generated in this corner of the basic reason keyboard, making it probably the mouse jump there. the mouse works perfectly when I rotate the screen of this corner, but lie, which makes it extremely difficult to work with the screen tilted in a different direction and the Del key BkSpace hiding behind the screen! Ofcuorse, this heat is the culprit and a strange design of unit fault!

  I had this same problem (although it seems a bit more sporadic than what others have experienced).

  The physical reason of the problem seems to be the corner of the base of the shelf RF interference; because the tablet takes the pen by measuring how much the emitted RF is altered by the pen, the interference near the corner must "look like" the pen being there.

  I have "confirmed" this by placing a piece of foil between the screen and the base (in the corner only); This removes the behavior of jumping.  Although I did not open my tablet, I suppose that the interference comes from the power of conditioning circuits for the processor?

  In regards to the Wacom HID "pen" disable the fix mentioned above: the feather still work like a pen (RF, with a fine location and pressure sensitivity), or it doesn't work like a 'finger' (capacitive touch sensor on screen, much coarser location resolution)?

• I have a problem with scrolling of mouse working on its own.

  Original title: in Windows 7, how can I stop popups, scrolling & other activities when I do click on the mouse.

  I recently moved from XP if it is not a problem.

  (1) while I read a website or a Word doc & move the cursor out of the way, it opens up the popups for no matter what cursor passes over, distract from what I'm trying to do.

  (2) in Word, when I try to highlight something to change or clear, somehow the cursor goes into scrolling on its own & does not allow me to highlight what I want.

  Basically, I would turn the mouse in what it was on XP because the "intuitive" nonsense is not help. If I want to see the popup, I can always right click. I have need it automatically sends me garbage.

  Y at - it a setting that I have not been able to find? I was well as the mouse settings and tried various combinations, but this feels like a more basic configuration question. If so, how should I do?

  Thank you

  Earl

  Thanks for your help with this.

  For some reason, the mouse was activating stuff (pop ups, etc.) when I checked precisely not to do.

  I tried what you suggested. What seems to have worked replaces the mouse. I had an arrangement to use a single set of keyboard/monitor/mouse with 3 computers, requiring the use of a mouse with the old pins instead of USB. I'm trying to do with 2 units of mouse and it seems fine. Don't know why, but I'm satisfied.

  Thanks again,

  Earl

• I have an IMAc running on the latest version of El Capitan. MY blutooth followed pad has a mind of its own - opening windows and text highlighting / deletion.  In addition to this my screen keeps freezing and the spinning ball will appear.

  I have an IMac running on El Capitan 10.11.6. My bluetooth followed pad has a mind of its own - opening windows and text highlighting / deletion.  In addition to this my screen keeps freezing and the spinning ball will appear - I have to hold down the back of the screen to force it to close.  This message of the 2 line took almost an hour to type as I have no control on the touchpad.

  Hello Kluggerjo,

  Thank you for reaching out to the Community Support from Apple. I know how important it must be able to count on your devices work as expected, and I have a few steps that should help resolve the behaviors you see.

  I would recommend to go by resetting your management system (SCM) controller. MSC helps control and regulate different material on your Mac, including Bluetooth systems.  This article will guide you in this process: reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac.

  If you still experience the issue after the test, you can test the behavior to a test user. This will help us to determine if the problem is systemic or isolated to your user account. This article will guide you in this process: How to test a question in another account on your Mac user

  If the behavior is duplicated to the test user, I'd recommend reinstalling El Capitan. This will not delete your data. To reinstall using the recovery mode, take a look at this article: How to reinstall OS X

  If you experience any problems or have any questions, please let us know. The entire community is here to help.
  -Best regards

• selectingitems and trackpad pointer moves its own

  I was watching a video of Amazon and may have struck a couple of keys, or my hand slipped in the keys - I don't know, but pointer froze on the follow-up to the film bar at the bottom of the screen (not sure if this is relevant, or what is called in fact this bar) in all cases, the pointer froze and then began to move erratically in bursts on the screen , selection of apps, ibooks, photos, etc. and then OPEN them as if I had clicked. Literally goes haywire as if it had a life of its own. I have NEVER experienced this during the 11 years that I've had the Mac laptop. I don't know if trackpads wear out (my current MacBook Pro is a vintage 2012 and I debated update, but it was working very well.) I wonder how to clean the dust/debris under keys because I know it can be done and I was wondering if something got under the trackpad (seems pulled by the hair) but it's really another question for me to continue. Any help on trackpad possessed pointer would be appreciated. I don't see that this issue anywhere else... - Pam

  Remove the bottom plate and inspect the inside.  Pay attention to the battery to see if there are signs of expansion.  If so, take it out and have a new installed.  An extended battery can affect the trackpad.

  If no success, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar for a FREE evaluation.

  Ciao.

• My albums Mac Office keep shut on its own no one knows what may be the cause?

  My Mac keeps closing on its own after start for several minutes.  No one knows why this happens (IE Captain)

  It can be / or think that it is overheating and he's trying to protect themselves.

  We the iMacs at work did after that we replaced the HD and a new has a sensor on it. We had to download a software solution to work around.
