When I hit enter, I get a backslash

Whenever I use my enter key (back), I get a backslash (\) and a new line. I don't know when it started - about a week ago, all of a sudden.

Take it to your Apple Store and ask them to confirm that it is defective. If so, you will need to buy a new one, but at least you'll be in the right place.

  • How to stop windows media player from launching when I hit enter?

    I'm on Windows XP Home Edition

    Never had this problem before.
    Turned the computer on last night.
    Whenever I hit enter WMP starts.
    I rebooted, disconnected the keyboard, reconnected, etc..
    Help!

    Thanks for the reply.

    I answer so that if anyone else has this problem in the future this can also help.
    Method 1 - I do not have a shortcut for WMP on desktop, so it's s/o.
    Method 2 - I had actually downloaded an upgrade to Adobe Flash Player the previous night.
    So I uninstalled, restarted, but the problem was still there.
    Method 3 - (my method)-j' swapped the keyboard, rebooted and the problem is solved.
    Don't know why, no damage has been done to the keyboard, no spill, etc..
    I hope it was.
    Thanks again for the support.
  • Why my game works only when I hit enter and not when I click my Start button?

    If I have a weird problem with a game that I put as well as the actionscript 3.

    The game is not complicated.  I found an online tutorial for a simple navigation with the keyboard arrow keys.  I have a menu at the beginning of the game screen, and I made a start button that takes you to another frame of the scenario where the game is coded.  If I click on the Start button it navigates to the reading of the chronology section, but keyboard commands do not work.  If instead of press the start button, I just hit enter on the keyboard the swf plays forward until it hits the game section and the shutdown command, then the keyboard commands work fine.

    Of course, my keyboard navigation controls are correct or it wouldn't work at all but why clicking on the button start, I created somehow stop it working correctly?

    Any suggestions or ideas anyone?

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see how it works there.

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

    The problems of Firefox using Firefox SafeMode

    When in Safe Mode...

    • The State of plugins is not affected.
    • Custom preferences are not affected.
    • All extensions are disabled.
    • The default theme is used, without a character.
    • userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored.
    • The layout of the default toolbar is used.
    • The JIT Javascript compiler is disabled.
    • Hardware acceleration is disabled.
    • You can open the mode without failure of Firefox 15.0 + 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.

    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.

  • HP OfficeJet Pro 8625: Update was downloaded now, when I hit print I get 'Send Fax, HP OfficeJet Pro 8620' window

    My HP OfficeJet Pro 8625 newly purchased printer was printing fine until I downloaded an update online. Now when I try to print I get the "Send Fax - HP OfficeJet Pro 8620" window. I have not selected the correct option on the update. I do not use nor I set up the fax on my computer or a printer. How can I fix this problem?

    In Control Panel, select devices and printers.

    Right-click on the printer 8620, and then select set as default printer.

    Select the printer listed without 'Fax' in its name and confirm.

    The application used to print as if sure you select the print queue that does not include 'Fax' in its name.

  • How can I fix my toolbar? I type a website, but it does not when I hit enter or the arrow. I checked my Add ons and extensions already

    the toolbar at the top will not work. I checked Add ons extensions and I restarted. It still does not work. I tried safe mode and it didn't work either

    Maybe it's this: due to a change in the way that Firefox 39 associate keywords with bookmarks and/or history, the address bar is newly sensitive to corruption in the database that stores your history and bookmarks (the places.sqlite file).

    The developers are working on a solution, but that could take weeks to reach you.

    At this point, the best solution is to delete/rename the places.sqlite file, but then you lose all your history, if this really isn't very attractive to people who rely on history to revisit the sites.

    In case you want to try this - in case you do not receive the best suggestions - here's how:

    Open the settings folder (AKA Firefox profile) current Firefox help

    • button "3-bar" menu > "?" button > troubleshooting information
    • (menu bar) Help > troubleshooting information

    In the first table of the page, click on the view file"" button. This should launch a new window that lists the various files and folders in Windows Explorer.

    Leave this window open, switch back to Firefox and output, either:

    • "3-bar" menu button > button "power".
    • (menu bar) File > Exit

    Pause while Firefox finishing its cleanup, then rename places.sqlite to something like oldplaces.sqlite. (I'm not suggesting delete this file, just in case you find yourself in need again).

    Firefox creates temporary files related to places.sqlite and those should be renamed / remove as well. Check places.sqlite - shm and places.sqlite - wal and if you find them, rename them as well.

    When you start Firefox back up again, he should start a new database places.sqlite and import your last backup automatic bookmark. Can you confirm that all your bookmarks are present? The address bar works normally again?

    Im trying to install a new install of win xp on a dell insp 700 m. all is well until you are ready to hit enter to select where to load windows. the keyboard freezes and crashes. It worked early, when I hit enter to launch the cd? any ideas? TX marty

    Thank you! I tried what you mentioned, nothing has worked... I plugged a usb keyboard and it works, so I'm starting to believe it could be a motherboard problem. I finally got windows xp pro installed, no conflicts in Device Manager, all the drivers are installed and now running smooth. I removed the keyboard, and re-set, all connections look good, but still not good. the synaptics keyboard works fine and both rt & lft click the buttons. I pulled the ram to inspect it, it's the right speed, ddr2700, and after running for an hour, it was cold to the touch! I'll try to get a new keyboard and replace it, their pretty good work, if still not good it becomes pieces on ebay... lol tx again... Marty

    New to Lightroom 6.  Were able to import photos previously. Now when I try to import Photos and videos, I specify a folder that contains a mixture of NEF and JPG images, and thumbnails will appear.  However, they are grayed out. When I hit Import, I get a message that says no. Photos import active.

    This means that you have previously imported these pictures/videos into Lightroom, and you must not (and are not allowed to) import them again.

    Go to your library Module (not the import dialog box) and find the photos, then you can make use of them in any way you want in Lightroom.

  • my search bar (22 FF) has suddenly become unusable; hitting enter does nothing (now get only toward sites via links and bookmarks)

    I am a FF user for a long time. Now uses version 22 (which seems to have updated from 18 in itself even if I had it to ask me before the update - but 22 2 has worked well for me once I had solved the problem of screen being so great he hid my menu at the top and tabs). Now, all of a sudden, just in the last week, recording a (valid) url in the search bar and pressing on enter "does not" do anything. No search functionality at all because that hitting enter does not cause FF take any notice of putting me in a URL for a site that I want to go to the (I use the same sites over and over so not only some new site acting upward).

    Not my keyboard or mouse is defective; they work as usual in other programs I constantly use - email, database of inventory - and no update or the other program, in Word, Excel, NotePad, my photo program, what that is. Security Essentials last updated a week ago, but I can't see inside to see if it changed anything. Am a XP Pro user and update (until next year, at least!). Keyboard is a real Elite Force, the change (wired) mouse. Have used for a couple of years is therefore not new to me.

    Only way that I can use 22 FF in the last days to get to "any" site, including mine, is to spend on websites pinned to my screen open or my favorites. I tried unpin some sites on my logon screen and then type in their URL and pressing on enter but which has not changed anything - the search bar is always unusable and hit "enter" doesn't do anything.

    So why my search bar did stop working? Is there a solution?

    Hi aaabooks

    You are running Firefox in compatibility mode?

    You can open the properties of the desktop Firefox shortcut via the context menu and check under the tab "compatibility".

    Make sure that all items are disabled in the tab "Compatibility" in the Properties window.

    Create a new profile as a test to see if your profile is the source of the problems.

    See "create a profile":

    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a profile in the new profile, but be careful not to copy files corrupted to avoid transporting on the problem.
