2.21 or 2.22 won't connect
On one Windows 7 desktop I have, after upgrading to 2.21 (or now trying
2.22), the browser or mail client will not connect (ISP is comcast). I
have a Windows 7 laptop and Windows 8 tablet, neither of which have
shown this problem, so it's something specific to the desktop. When I
first tried 2.21, I did try safe mode, with which the browser would
connect but the mail client would not. Out of safe mode, I tried
disabling all add-ons manually, but the browser would still not
connect. Problem always goes away when I go back to 2.20.

These are the first problems I have had with a release going back literallz for zears. Advice would be appreciated. As for the keyboard problem: it seems that you have an alternate keyboard configured in your computer. Windows allows you to have several keyboards configured, and will attempt to remember which layout to use in which window. From the errors you mention, you seem to have both a QWERTY-based layout (English, Spanish, Portuguese, Scandinavian languages and several others) and a QWERTZ-based layout (German and Eastern Europe, mostly). The solution is to open the Windows Control Panel, click on the Change Keyboards or other input methods link, click on the Change keyboards button and uninstall the undesired keyboard layouts. As for the open blank page when closing... does this happens only when you are trying to closing the last tab on the windows, or always? The load-blank-page-on-closing-the-last-tab thing is there by design, and can be turned off by an about:config option.

Re: 2.22 Closing page in browser opens blank page. Keyboard errors.

These are the first problems I have had with a release going back literallz for zears. Advice would be appreciated. As for the keyboard problem: it seems that you have an alternate keyboard configured in your computer. Windows allows you to have several keyboards configured, and will attempt to remember which layout to use in which window. From the errors you mention, you seem to have both a QWERTY-based layout (English, Spanish, Portuguese, Scandinavian languages and several others) and a QWERTZ-based layout (German and Eastern Europe, mostly). The solution is to open the Windows Control Panel, click on the Change Keyboards or other input methods link, click on the Change keyboards button and uninstall the undesired keyboard layouts. As for the open blank page when closing... does this happens only when you are trying to closing the last tab on the windows, or always? The load-blank-page-on-closing-the-last-tab thing is there by design, and can be turned off by an about:config option. If it's happening in other situations, however, there might be something else wrong. Thanks for the reply. The keyboard problem only occurred while typing in the news reader and as you can see, it appears to have disappeared. I do have an alternate keyboard program installed but it is and has been set for English (US). The glitch comes and goes at random but only in e-mail and this news group. I did run Periforms Crap Cleaner after sending my post and cleaned out a lot of buried Temp files along with other junk in my browser and operating system, Win 7 Pro. I also ran a system scan that found no problems. Perhaps that took care of the problem. As for the blank windows, they did occur when I had several tabs open along with programs that I was using to attach files to e-mail. In several cases, my ISP rejected the send option because the files were too large. A blank window opened with each rejection. For now, things seem to be working properly and I will post if the problems return. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

The solution is to open the Windows Control Panel, click on the Change Keyboards or other input methods link, click on the Change keyboards button and uninstall the undesired keyboard layouts. I agree with your diagnosis, but I wouldn't prescribe surgery. Windows allows the user to toggle between different keyboards, and perhaps the OP has forgotten to do so, or else chosen not to display the tray icon that shows which keyboard is active. So that's what I'd do -- toggle back to QWERTY. Paul: Please see my reply to McBastos above.

Every time i try to do so, it states, that there is a blank page. is this a bug? No way to know without some examples and some more details. for example, when i try and compose an email to the Democratic Governors Association, and i try and check my wording for any mistakes, it will read the first few words in the sentence/paragraph about 4 words before stopping speech. it never did this before. it is now doing this after i updated to the newest version of SeaMonkey.
