Your welcome. :) I always happy to help wherever I can. The reason I new was because I've done the same thing that you did countless times. I don't use it either, never have, never wull. On Nov 6, 2010, at 8:21 PM, Jenny Wood wrote: > Hello all. Wow, so okay. I have absolutely no idea what

Holy cow!!! You nailed it! I have no idea why this didn't occur to me. LOL As soon as I read your message, I remembered that I had used quicknav earlier today, and apparently it didn't get turned off. I don't use quicknav very often at this point, so I guess that might explain why it didn't

Could it be quick nav? Try turning on and off quick nav. Left and right arrow together turns it on and off. On Nov 6, 2010, at 8:21 PM, Jenny Wood wrote: > Hello all. Wow, so okay. I have absolutely no idea what I did, but > apparently I managed to hit some key combination that modified the

Thanks, Wes! Looks like the Keyboard shortcuts in the System Preferences is still set to allow access to everything. I also browsed through many of the other various settings, just to see if anything else jumped out at me. Didn't make any changes though. With regard to the problem I am havin
