My apostrophe key acted strange since yesterday. Instead of typing an apostrophe, it's rather type a slash

Hello, my apostrophe key acted strange since yesterday. Instead of typing an apostrophe, it's rather type a slash, placing the position where I type at the bottom of my sentence (don't know what his name), and sometimes it sticks all what I have on my Clipboard in where it is. It was very irritating at this point and I was not able to find anything that helps anywhere else. I tried to restart my computer earlier, but without success.

This kind of behavior is usually the first sign of a faulty keyboard.  Try another keyboard plugged into a USB port to check.

If yours is a desktop computer, replace the keyboard.  Certainly simple and cheap

If yours is a laptop, you will need the services of a competent technician with the RIGHT part.  Beware, there are several laptop keyboard parts which are similar, but not the right ones.  This will probably cost you more than $100.  You should consider a solution much easier and less costly - buy and use an external keyboard.

  • DW acting strange - does code view

    My Dreamweaver CS3 started acting strangely since I've upgraded to a new version of CS3 studio.
    I worked with CS3 for a while now without needing too much adjustment of DW8.
    However, I just bought a new computer and I had to reinstall all my software.


    On the new box, DW is very strange:

    (1) when I'm in page layout mode and click on an item to go to the corresponding line of the code of the item that is no longer, it goes to the line. However, it does when I right click on it. It's a bit embarrassing because it also opens the context menu at the same time.

    (2) when I'm in mode code (which is 99% of the time) and I click on an item, it shows me is no longer the corresponding CSS rule in the CSS pane. Once again, if I click right sometiomes it works, but it is not reliable in any event. Sometimes it works if I double click, but most of the time it isn't.


    (3) the icon of comment in the toolbar code is often dimmed. No reason so that I can see and every so often he work wil on the same line of code where it did not a minute before.

    I've raked the preferences line by line, without success.
    On my old computer I never had problems like that. I find it very strange and it's crimping considerably my workflow. Did someone knowing theis behavior or how to fix it?

    > If I reinstall I will lose all of it.

    It's unfortunate, but maybe it's your only option.

    > 20 hours

    Seems a bit long for me. I uninstalled CS3 at least 20 times and none
    has taken more than two hours, with complementing most much faster than that.

    > If anyone has experienced this before, I'm all ears. Thank you

  • Satellite P300-no more wireless since yesterday

    Hello world
    Since yesterday, my wireless function no longer works.
    Internet still works with the ethernet cable. I am also able to enter the menu of the router (192.168.0.1, without ethernet cable) config.
    I did install a new software recently. What could be wrong? The laptop computer or the router?
    Thanks for the help.

    Hello

    In my opinion, you should try to update the WLAN driver. You can see the Toshiba WLAN portal for an update:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

    Also make sure that the DHCP client and DNS are running, maybe you must restart both services (start > run > Services.msc).

    Make also sure that the firewall isn't blocking the connection WIFI.

  • BlackBerry Z10 Z10: Synchronization of emails does not work since yesterday (calendar and contacts are ok but)

    Hello

    Since yesterday for (at least for me) reasons unknown my Z10 refuses to synchronize emails with gmail; has worked without any problems for months before.

    Symptoms: calendar and contacts are synchronized but not e-mail.

    I tried to delete the account and setting up again. Same results: contacts and calendar works, but not by e-mail.

    Error message: "your contacts and your calendar accounts have already been added. Currently, the server imap.gmail.com is unavailable and your email account cannot be added. "Please try again later".

    Please note that I sync with gmail via IMAP old plain - and IMAP synchronization works smoothly on my PC (thunderbird).

    Does anyone else has experienced this problem since yesterday?

    Any cure?

    Thank you very much in advance for your help.

    This custom is with you code. The Exchange Server blocking your access. POP is different in OWA, you can enable and disable the individually. POP may have been disabled or changed on the exchange server. It might even be blocking the IP address / range you connect from.

    You need to know what has changed on the exchange server, as this will be the reason why its not working. If your code has not changed so it will not cause the problem. If a configuration has been changed on the server, then you will need discover what, so you can adjust your code if possible (i.e. another port)
