While working in IntelliJ IDEA, the keyboard occasionally locks in a way that delete or < > ^ keys don’t work properly anymore, in a way that delete doesn’t do anything anymore, and the arrow keys scroll the entire source code / editor section.

I don’t know if I am accidentially some kind of shortcut, but the only way I can get it back to normal again is closing and re-opening the IDE, which is annoying of course.

I’m on Mac OS X Lion, latest IntelliJ IDEA CE (11.1.1), but also had it before with the previous versions.

    Check idea.log (Help | Reveal Log in …) for exceptions. If you see PSI/document inconsistency before reparse there, then you are probably affected by this bug.

    If there are other exceptions not related to this bug, please send the log to JetBrains technical support.
