Problems with the keyboard, typing the extra characters

Original title: Getting irritated by symbols

When I type a few symbols, such as the double rating mark("), single quote ('), apostrophe (') or CAP (^), these symbols will appear once I get home the next symbol or letter. For example, if I write 'Hello', first double quote appears after I enter the letter H, and the second citation appears after clicking on the comma. And how it works on all programs, where I can write (notebook, desktop, browsers, etc.). Is it possible to change this strange behavior? I am using Windows 7 Ultimate x 64 and wireless keyboard.

  • Problem with the extra heat?

    I've only had my i1 for about 10 days now, and I noticed that the back of the phone has been pretty warm during. If anyone has had this problem, and if so, what can we do about it?

    Thank you

    You can have an application that runs in the background. Try to install the free version of Panel of the system and once it starts to heat up, check what apps are underway. There is an option to put end to all applications that need to get your phone begins to cool down.

  • Problems with the Smart keyboard (iPad 9.7 Pro)

    I recently bought the iPad Pro 9.7 inches, gray space, Wifi, 128 GB. IOS 9.3.1 of the operating system.

    A few questions that I met in my four days of using the iPad with the Smart keyboard:

    NOTE: the following problems persist despite a technical support call which lasted, I did 2 hours and 30 minutes. I had to restore my iPad settings by connecting to iTunes via my PC to reinstall the last iOS.

    (i) switching applications: if I want to pass, say, from safari to adobe, it is quite easy to do with the keyboard. However, there is an intermittent problem when the apps. When I try to open Adobe when I use safari, the screen of the iPad shows apps that are open as soon as I press the command and tab key.

    What is supposed to happen - I choose to open Adobe, Adobe opens.

    What happens to the contrary - Adobe does not open. Another "X" application that is currently running, opens. It is quite frustrating, because there is no pattern to this. If I use once more the keyboard shortcut to open Adobe, another application 'Y' which is running, open it now.

    In this case, I pointed out, often when the App Store is running.

    (II) command key: sometimes, shortly after I use the shortcut keys to turn on screen shortcut area (pop-up shortcut) - apps, this is supposed to happen if and only if you press and hold down the command key.

    This often happens when I switch to Safari.

    (III) keyboard not responding: a problem that I met today for the first time. My keyboard will not just respond. I had to disconnect and reconnect the keyboard for this function.

    (IV) on which the space key: to wake up the iPad, pressing the SPACEBAR is enough. You don't have to press the home button. Yet, sometimes the space key does not respond and you must use the home button.

    v) Quick app - keyboard shortcut crash switch function causes: if I want to switch from app to app 'X' 'Y', but mistakenly switch to 'Z' app, I immediately want to spend to 'Y '. However, I can't do this in quick succession. I have to wait a second or two before I can switch from 'Y' 'Z' app, otherwise the automatic switching app crashes and you have to wait once more for a second or two before moving on.

    My diagnosis:

    (I) it could be a problem with the smart connector on my iPad. A hardware problem. But it does not explain why the automatic switching app appears and passes correctly but eventually open the wrong applications. Also, it does not explain why the problem is intermittent.

    (II) a software problem. However, that would make me a face 5 questions at once. Sort of. I was surprised that, apart from the question of #3 and #4, there was almost no mention of other issues.

    To restart the iPad or to disconnect and reconnect the keyboard. But I don't think that anyone would be willing to do this 4 - 5 times on a daily basis.

    Update:

    So I used my keyboard all day yesterday without opening the App Store. And guess what? It has been working perfectly. All the above problems I mentioned were not available yesterday. I'll use the App Store today and let it run in the background to see how does my iPad.

  • Strange problem with the keyboard

    Hello.
    I have problem with my keyboard. It works with delays. I don't know how to fix it.

    Hello

    What do you mean by working with delays?
    As far as I know, you can change the keyboard settings in the keyboard properties.
    Also, if you think that it s not a fault or parameters of software problem but hardware malfunction, you can try to contact the service agent.
    But before you contact the ASP you should recover the operating system.

    Good bye

  • S205 - problem with the keyboard (right shift key)

    Hello.

    Google couldn't really help me, so I try my luck here

    Two days ago, I met a rather strange problem with the keyboard of my S205 (running Win7 64 bit). For some reason any the right shift key is no longer works as a shift key, but it has the same function as "Alt Gr" key on the right side. FYI: German keyboard. For example, the @ is on the same key as the Q here and normally I have press the AltGr key to type a @. Now the same thing with the right shift key.

    I tried a couple of things already, none of them helped. I have accidentally changed the layout of the keyboard, checked once again in the Control Panel, everything is OK here. No Fn - keys are activated. I tried to plug in an external USB keyboard - on that one, the shift key works fine. The right shift key is the only key that does not work properly. I even tried the keyboard on the screen so I could see which key was pressed when I pressed the SHIFT key and she showed the "Alt Gr" - button is pressed.

    I am open to any suggestion. Thank you

    In case someone might have the same problem - unfortunately I don't have a solution. He solved somehow itself a few months later. Really strange thing, but the key is working again.

  • Strange problem with the keyboard event listener

    I have a full screen touch app. To close the application, I set an event listener on keyboard for the key "0". I don't want the press user due to some restrictions Alt + F4 key combination. Problems begin when the application loses focus. Here's the code;

    protected function onComplete(event:FlexEvent):void
    {

    this.setFocus ();
    this.addEventListener (KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, trapKeys, true, 0, true);

    }

    private void trapKeys(e:KeyboardEvent):void {}

    If (e.keyCode == 96) {}
    This.Close ();
    }

    Else if (e.keyCode == 48) {}
    This.Close ();
    }

    }

    When the user change the screen to a different with Alt + TAB application, or any other combination of keys flex app loses focus and does not work when he turns back to my app "0". How can I solve this problem?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, Ahmed.

    I have absolutely no problem with the solution you are trying to set up - you use mode full-screen interactive mode of keyboard?

    Please consider:

    on full add keyboard listener

    protected function applicationCompleteHandler(event:FlexEvent):void

    {

    this.stage.addEventListener (KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, trapKeys);

    };

    //

    protected function applicationActivateHandler(event:AIREvent):void

    {

    If (this.stage)

    {

    switch the State to display full-screen when activated

    If (this.stage.displayState! = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE)

    {

    this.stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE;

    };

    };

    };

    //

    private var exitHandled:Boolean = false;

    on NUMBER_0 | NUMPAD_0 exit-close

    protected function trapKeys(event:KeyboardEvent):void

    {

    If ((event.keyCode is Keyboard.NUMBER_0

    || event.keyCode is Keyboard.NUMPAD_0)

    (& this.exitHandled == false)

    {

    exitHandled = true;

    this.stage.removeEventListener (KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, trapKeys);

    This.Close ();

    };

    }

    (Note: applicaton of the events 'applicatonComplete' and "applicationActivate" are routed to over managers)

  • Satellite C850 - found problems with the networking and the FN key

    Hey everybody,

    I work on a Satellite Toshiba C850, that my parents recently bought and spin in a certain number of questions.

    (1) wireless won't connect to my network. Have done the following: verified by connecting on two other computers, reset the router, the open network, reset the map, reinstalled the realtek drivers, checked the settings in the networking of Toshiba Utilities. End result is he's going to try, and fail. Wired LAN works fine.

    (2) FN key does not work. Have you checked the region and it is OK, have tried to use the Flash cards - no change, checked with the screen keyboard and can check the FN key does not register.

    I noticed that the first problem is common, but there are obvious positive results. If anyone can offer any assistance, I would appreciate it a lot.

    Before you begin to discuss your problems can you please tell us what OS you are using?
    Are you using the original OS that you got with your laptop? I mean original recovery image has been tested and works correctly, with the factory settings that all should especially the FN keys.

    1 / What do you mean with refusing? your WLAN is visible for your laptop?

    2 / if there is problem with the feature keys FN and you use Win7 try please reinstall extra package from Toshiba.

  • Hello! Someone has some problem with the haptic on Macbook 12 "2016 function? It does not work on my Mackbook.

    I'm trying to figure if someone has my problem with the haptic on Macbook 12 "2016 function. The option is checked in the preferences system, but it does not work.

    Thank you

    Hello luigi10m,

    Thanks for posting on the Community Support from Apple. From your post, it looks like your haptic feedback does not work when you click using your trackpad and the setting is enabled. I know that this is a great feature and it is important to make it work. I'll be happy to help you.

    First of all, I would like to assure you that in system preferences > Trackpad > clicking silencer is not checked, that might help. In addition, it would be useful to reset the settings of the SCM. You can find instructions here: reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac - Apple Support

    I'll also include those for you here:

    1. Stop the Mac.
    2. Plug the MagSafe or USB - C adapter to a power source and to your Mac.
    3. Use the built-in keyboard, press shift-control-Option on the left side of the keyboard, then press the power button at the same time.
    4. All the keys to unlock, then press the power button to turn on your Mac

    Take care!

  • Problem with the HP G62 recovery disks

    Hello

    I'm having a problem with the restoration of the operating system on your laptop HP G-62. When I first bought the laptop, I was unable to make the recovery discs, so I ordered recently a few new HP. Because I have installed Ubuntu on the laptop, I wiped it from the disk hard drive used Wipedrive to remove the old Ubuntu operating system I had installed.

    Laptop computer reads the first disc ok and installs the component of windows, but when the screen lights up asking the two disc number it freezes and never installs anything when you try to move anything that used to screen it doesn't matter what and he used to install the second disk. He repeats just 'Please wait '.

    Thank you, Robert

    Hi, Robert:

    I can't help you get the recovery disks to work, but if you can read all 25 characters of the product key 7 windows on the bottom of your PC, you can do your own installation disc 7 windows to reinstall the operating system.

    Here's how:

    If you can read the Microsoft windows 7 25-character product key, you can download simple Windows 7 ISO files to burn on a DVD for the version of windows that is installed on your PC, and which is listed on the Microsoft COA sticker on your PC case.

    Burn the ISO with the option to burn the ISO on your DVD burning program and burn it at the slowest possible speed that will allow your program. This will create a bootable DVD.

    Or use the installation of Windows 7 USB/DVD tool to compile the ISO file that you download from Digital River. Link and instructions below. You need a 4 GB flash drive to use the USB compilation method.

    http://www.microsoftstore.com/store/msstore/HTML/pbPage.Help_Win7_usbdvd_dwnTool

    Use 25 characters on the PC product key to activate the installation.

    The key will activate a 32 or 64 bit installation.

    Then go to the support of the PC and driver page to install the drivers you need.

    Link to downloads ISO of W7 is below.

  • Satellite C660D - a problem with the cooling system has been detected

    My laptop is a * Toshiba Satellite C660D-11th * and I have a message that keeps coming up every once in a while 'alert system' head and reads as follows: "WARNING: a problem with the cooling system has been detected." (Next line) Please, turn off computer immediately and return it for service. »

    I had this warning for the coming weeks and it tolerated, but it worsened and annoyed me for the last time. I can hear the fan and the computer is not over heating (the CPUCool freeware tool detects a 51º CPU temprature C). No further questions arise as the computer slows down, it is right in the path of what I do, like typing right now.

    I tried to solve the problem by changing the "Power Options" in the control panel of Windows 7 'High Performance', and then selected under the 'battery' both 'Sector' columns, 'Never' for the parameter "put the computer to sleep. It seems to work, and no error message has occurred since then. However, this is not a solution...

    Please help quickly, this prevents me from working and even other things now.

    Thank you

    Hello

    Usually, this message would appear if something is not wrong with the cooling system. But I read here in the forum that maybe it's a bug of software and after new system recovery this message should no longer appear.

    But if you notice some upper temperature or abnormal noises, then I recommend to check this with a service technician

  • Starting problem with the gray screen on iMac

    Hello everyone

    I'm a bit puzzled with a problem I'm having with my iMac 27 "a model late 2009, bought in early 2010, I had built at the time with 8 GB ram, 2 TB HD and fastest i7 Quad core processor available at the time.

    I'm running El Capitan, and all wise OS is perfectly up to date.

    The other week, after a systematic restart, I have a gray screen and little else.  Another reboot and everything was "normal", so I did not concern me unduly.

    Today, after that the Mac had been idle for a time during a call, the screen fell asleep as usual (I do not SLEEP the computer itself), but during his return and touch the SPACEBAR and key "ESC", the screen remains black.

    So I made a forced shutdown and restart.

    I get the screen gray and normal startup (no other sounds) chime followed by the apple logo and the startup progress bar.  He gets to halfway through the long, and then instead of bring to the top of the login page, it's just going to a gray screen Uni.

    So I restarted in safe mode, OK and ran disk utility a couple of times - at the first crossing, he noted, there a problem with the map of partition which can cause problems starting, but on the second passes and the following, everything has been noted to be OK - and the SMART status of disk has been verified.

    After a reboot - the same question as above - of carillon, gray screen with the apple logo, progress bar and then just a gray screen.  I did another secure boot and re-run of disk utility, rebooted into recovery mode and run disk utility.  And again, no problems reported.

    Another reboot and the issue was always there.

    So this time I rebooted into recovery again mode and downloaded a new installation of El Capitan.

    Unfortunately, there is no set - it is always start on a gray screen after the startup chime, the apple logo and progress bar.

    I have also removed all my account account startup items and disconnected all USB devices.

    I'm a bit lost for what to do next to be honest!

    Is there anything else I can do software wise, at home, or is it time for the repair material re shop perhaps?

    Thank you very much for your words of wisdom and support

    Kind regards

    John... :-)

    John here again: :-)

    Just a quick update which may help to determine what the problem is: I restarted in safe mode, after the reinstallation of the operating system was unable to initialize properly - grey screen again.

    However, as I have a home network, I found that I can not connect on the network with my MacBook Pro to the iMac, see all my files user on the iMac and even copy them across to the MacBook Pro with no problems.

    Everything on the iMac is saved via Time Machine on a Western Digital Firewire HD 3to.

    I also have uncompressed manual 'straight' copies of my music, movies, documents folders, etc, for an old time Capsule, currently acting as a bridge to my ethernet network wireless, and provide additional backup for those critical files - my music for example is ripped 350 odd CD, all legally purchased in ALAC on iTunes on the iMac - which represents a couple of months of work... lol... no way I want to lose that!

    So I'm a bit of a loss.  Disk utility reported no problem with the drive... I can boot into safe mode and recovery, but normal mode 'mode '... I always get the chime, the screen with apple logo and progress of the gray bar, then goes to just a gray screen instead of the login page.

    Help!

    My beloved Einstein had a hiccup!

    All comments appreciated and thanks again - hope this extra info helps
