Intel Mac :: Will Not Stay On Opened Program - Cannot Continue Typing?
Mar 27, 2012
My iMac desktop will not stay on one program. In other words, I will open a program such as Safari or Pages, and after it loads, the program acts as though I have clicked on some other screen space. So I have to take my mouse and click on the program to begin typing but the process repeats. I think its about every 15 seconds I have to constantly use the mouse to click on the program so I can continue typing. I haven't downloaded anything recently and I have no idea how to fix this, sort of rebooting the whole system.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

Why does my iMac continue to loose wifi connection? My PC setting right next to it does not have the problem. I'm trying to do the switch to iMac but having a tough time. My 1986 DOS PC with 20 Meg hard drive sure was simpler.

My imac starts typing by itself it usually starts in safari and if I open any other program it will continue in that. It also continuously toggles rapidly between items in the lists of drop down menus. Other weird stuff happening too like if I put it to sleep and re-login it will delete any text I try to put in the password box.

I started having an issue with my iMac typing in the letter 'V' in any field, whether in a browser or in a window even after I've unplugged the keyboard. I've tried restarting several times, but it's getting worse to the point that I can't even type my password in b/c strings of the letter 'V' keep erroring out each field. The letter 'V' isn't stuck in the keyboard, my keyboard doesn't need to be cleaned, I've run a disk repair and no errors are coming up. I had to type this from a different computer otherwise the entire message would have had "v's" typed throughout!

My two-year-old daughter was messing with the keyboard on my iMac, and now the keys on the keyboard are not functioning as they were before. The delete key doesn't work, "a" types a symbol-topped "a" followed by the copyright symbol, etc...Â
I've restores the factory settings to the function keys in system preferences, but the problem persists.

My email will not stay deleted, nothing goes to trash and while I see the messages disappear as I delete them, if I quit inbox and come back, they're back! Ive tried going offline and deleting; doesnt work. I recently upgraded to Lion trying to avoid this very issue: email problems. I have an IMac.

I am in the process of burning several home video tapes to DVDs. Sharing a HD video can take up to 5 hours.I can't seem to get my monitor to stay off during that time.Is there a way to do that? If not, can I create a shortcut to the "display" settings so I can quickly turn the brightness down as much as possible?

Since I upgraded to OS X 10.7.3, Safari won't stay connected to the internet, if I am away from the keyboard for more than 120 seconds. My laptop (same operating system, & WiFi network) does not suffer this same problem.

I just got a lexar 1000x 32 gig compact flash card.When I put it in the card reader it repeatedly connects and disconnects. I bought two cards and they both do it so I don't think it's a bad card. I'm using a lexar professional UDMA compact flash, sd reader (usb 2.0).
