Hello Adam, If you are using system 8.5 on a Mac, this is a problem that Wolfram is working on. It seems to be a sporadic problem that surfaces at random intervals. I have the same trouble but it can happen all the time, and then not happen at all for a long time. If you are running system 8 of some variety less than 8.5, there is a fix. The page at Wolfram's site has help http://www.wolfram.com/support/Systems/Macintosh/FE/AppearancePatch.html If any other users with Macs and system 8.5 have ideas, I too would like to hear them. Most of the time I can type fine, but when I can't, it sure is a pain!!
