I had a problem some time ago with Stickies stopping working. It loaded up fine, but I couldn’t add any text or data to any notes.
Then, I downloaded Gmail notifier, and got the same problem - I could type in a password, but not the login name.
This was too annoying, so I did some hunting around. I found the following Input Managers in my Library (both these apps were working fine on other user logins):
- Amendment
- HotService
- Menu Extra Enabler
- Smart Crash Reports
- StepMenus
I disabled the lot of them, and it all works fine now.
The moral is, Input Managers can screw stuff up. Stuff in other programs.
