    • Annoying problem with Bryce 5

      I just upgraded to Bryce 5, and couldn't help noticing that the new version no longer sees my keyboard (which is strange, because it sees the mouse pluged into the keyboard). I can't enter numerical values for anything, and have to go to the edit menu every time I want to copy/paste or clear somthing. It's really irratating :mad: Has anybody else here who uses Bryce 5 had this problem? And if so, did you find a way to fix it?

      Well, I haven't had this problem, so I can't give you direct feedback, but I can suggest some things.

      I take it you're using a USB keyboard? I'm using an Apple Extended ADB keyboard through an iMate...though a hub. Sometimes things stop being recognized by the computer, so what I then do is unplug and replug the hub. Try doing that to your keyboard when this happens. If that doesn't work, try reinstalling Bryce. Have you ever had this problem with other apps? Are you pre-OS X (like me) or are you using OS X? Got any funky drivers for other input devices that might be conflicting?

      Standard tech-support type stuff, I know, but as someone who's had their share of odd problems (jerky mouse fixed by rebuilding the desktop file...printing problems with an ATM conflict, and I disabled extentions going alphabetically, and ~ATM was the very last - go figure :mad: ) I can say sometimes things just stop working and later start again, try unusual things and see if anything changes.

      Good luck!

      Never mind, I figured it out. Turned out to be a problem with the CarbonLib extension. Thanks anyway Weepul.
