My type tool went skew whiff and don't return to normal - it offers only typing me in forms!

Hi, can anyone help?

I was typing in the usual Type tool all day, then all of a sudden she went skew whiff and don't return to normal.  It doesn't seem to be an option to set this back to normal for me, instead he proposes to type in forms, like a rainbow! but don't let me even.  The usual cursor has a slash through it.  I can not type basically!

You seem to have activated the type on a path tool. Just hold the cursor over the text tool in the palette, and choose the tool of plain text again.

    Change the screen resolution

    Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images on your screen. At higher resolutions, items appear sharper. They appear also smaller, so more items adapted to the screen. At lower resolutions, fewer items adapted to the screen, but they are larger and easier to see. At very low resolutions, however, images may have serrated edges.

  • System is stuck on the classic color palette and don't return to the vista color palette

    I put my laptop on 5000mAh last night and then today I tried to open it but she refused to light because she had no battery, it probably updated itself, then restarted it self during the night (it has happaned before, it is quite old now, 3 years). But when I plugged in and turned on the theme (or so I thought) was classic. So I did the basics and tried to change the theme and and he said that it is on vista, but it just changed my wallpaper, returned and he says it's always on classic. Then tried to change the color scheme and when I click on Aero or basic preview is empty and if I click on apply just going darker. I tried many different things, like going to computor and clicking on manage and relaunch the themes. Went to the windows site and he did not like a check and he told me that the Office Manager wasn't on, I went and it was on and tried to restart my laptop.

    Please is - can anyone help with what I almost reached breaking point here and want to punch my laptop or throw it on the floor

  • Why don't return to normal size Windows Notepad more?

    I use Notepad all the time for small notes reminder for myself or to store information of the system for future reference configuration, etc. etc. Recently, I had to resize the window to make it shorter, so I could see something written inside a text from a Web page file. When I was done and closed on the two, and the next time I launched Notepad (any .txt file) it came that same short size. Is not a surprise, I saw him do this before and I just did what I did in the past: expand it to full screen width, add something new again about the content, save it, exit, then restart. Did not this time. Can't see why not. So I tried open Notepad and create a new document in real size and save, thinking that "looks like" Notepad correct default window size. Nope. Still stuck on the small size. Suggestions?

    Try Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there.

    A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • You can open the mode without failure of Firefox 4.0 + by pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.

    Do not choose anything at the moment, just use 'continue in safe mode.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.

    If it's good in Firefox Safe mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.
