MacBook Pro :: Keys Sticking - Can Hear Constant Beeping Like Clicking On A Link
Aug 20, 2014I don't normally have my sound on, but I have of late. It seems that my keys may be sticking, or trackpad, or mouse .. Â
Symptoms: I can hear constant beeping, like you are clicking on a link that is not working, you get that Ding/beep. It is constant, like your continuing hitting the enter button on a link that is not working.Â
I reboot and the sound stops. I don't think it is the mouse - and I do not always have it turned on. Sometimes also when I log in, when you type password, there are characters already entered, and it keeps going ... I have to hard reboot.Â
As far as I know I have not dropped this laptop, nothing has been dropped on it. I can not see if any of the keys are pushed in, and the trackpad looks normal.Â

MacBook Pro :: Trackpad On 2011 Keeps Sticking?
Apr 27, 2012Recently the buttons on my trackpad stick, as there stuck down even when I touch the pad lightley it responds as though i'm clicking down when i'm not. This means that its perminantly clicking and highlighting. Its so annoying.I have googled it and had so many different answers on how to fix it, some said restart the laptop, some said it is a software problem and some said to tap the trackpad lightly. I have updated my laptop with the update that came through and the pad still sticks, and i have restarted my laptop and it still isnt fixed. Â
I dont know why this is happening as the laptop is only 8 months old and i take such good care of it. Is there anyway to fix this?

MacBook Pro :: Trackpad Sticking Towards The Bottom?
Aug 26, 2014I have a problem with my MacBook Pro and its the fact that the trackpad is now sticking towards the bottom so there isn't a tactile click anymore, the trackpad just goes down. Im wondering if this is because I accidentally dropped something sticky into the bottom left corner or if it's just worn out. The bottom right and the middle of the trackpad is still clicking as if new.Â

PowerPC :: Sticking Powerbook Trackpad Button?
Dec 28, 2005I don't know if anyone else has ever had this problem, but it's driving me nutts. The trackpad button has done this once before where it would be real loud when you click it. There's a lot of play in it and sometimes clicks twice but only the second click registers... it's hard to explain.
The first time this happened it went awhile after a days use. However, now it's doing it again and it's been a few days now and it's so anoying!
OS X V10.7 Lion :: Mail Rules Not Sticking On IMac
Feb 7, 2012I am having a problem with rules in Mail (OS X Lion 10.7.3). The action rules I make will not stick. We use an Exchange mail server. I want my selected messages to be:
1. Moved to a local (on my Mac) mail folder.
2. Copied to a folder on the Exchange server.
That way I will have a local permanent archive of my mail, and also be able to see recent messages on all my devices (home Mac, iPad). The problem is that after quitting and restarting Mail, the actions get changed so they act on the same folder (e.g. move and copy to my local Mail folder) rather than to the two different ones. I tried removing the old MessageRules.plist in my Library Mail folder, but that made no difference. The newly written rules do the same thing as before.

Safari :: Preferences Not 'sticking' Resetting Each Time?
May 22, 2012I have a strange problem with my Macbook - all works well on my Macbook Pro..Â
When I try to set things in the Safari Preferences - like 'enable extensions' and so forth. When I re-start Safari, they've gone back to the original state.Â
I've tried:Â
- Resetting Safari
- Fixing permissions
- Restarting the machineÂ
I've also looked at the Library folder, to see if things in the 'Safari' and 'Preferences' folder are changing and they are.Â
Even when I set up a new bookmark of some tabs, it works, and I can set it as a default start-up - but, when I restart Safari, it has lost the bookmarks folder.Â

How can I disable the Itunes link to it? I want it to control only Cog player.

OS X :: F Keys Not Working On Macbook Air (rev A)?
Jun 9, 2009I reinstalled OS X from a Leopard dvd earlier (took it to an apple store and borrowed their superdrive), then transferred my info from my black macbook (latest revision, so has the volume keys as F10,F11,F12, play at F8 etc) via time machine.

View 2 Replies View RelatedOS X :: Remapping Keys On Macbook Pro?
Aug 21, 2009I have one thing that really bugs me about my Macbook Pro: There is no delete key! I've become accustomed to using this when typing, and really miss it on my Macbook.
I am aware that fn + backspace = delete, but Ideally, I'd like to reconfigure the eject button, to act as a delete key, and have it so that fn + eject would act as the 'eject' button.
I've downloaded a program for remapping keyboards called 'double command', but there is no option to do what I have explained, within this program.
MacBook :: 5 Keys Don't Work But Sometimes OK
Sep 25, 2009So back in May all of a sudden my Delete key stopped working well, I had to press it twice basically to get a response. I also noticed that my tab key and my space key didn't work either, as well as my right arrow and my up arrow. All summer they worked fine, and now that school has started again they don't work well. Sometimes they don't work at all, sometimes space but not delete, sometimes they only work when I press twice, etc.
I brought this up in May and people said its keyboard failure and that I need to back everything up before I can't use my laptop. I disagreed, since if it was laptop failure it wouldn't be just 5 keys. I was right and here I am many months later. I crackedopen my(crap.there.goes.thespace.key.not.kidding 0) and every thing seemed ok. I closed it back up and now I am making this topic. What could be causing my TAB, DELETE, SPACEBAR, RIGHT ARROW, TOP ARROW, to not work, sometimes. Sometimes it works perfect for days/weeks, and then all of a sudden works 50% or not work at........

View 4 Replies View RelatedMacBook :: Removing Keys - Can Pop Them Off?
Mar 13, 2010On the 13 inch macbook - can you pop off the keys individually and put them back on? Similar to say how you would on a standard keyboard? I wanted to know if anyone has done this? I thought I read in another post that you couldn't do this on the Macbook without removing the entire case? One of my kids spilled some soda on my keyboard and it is sticky. I wanted to know if I could just pop them off and clean it or if they don't just pop off.
