Okay, I have a major issue with Enchanting; specifically that I can't rename the item I am enchanting. Or rather, I can rename it, but if I do I'm stuck in the enchant screen forever, going in circles.
Here's what happens: I select my item, no problem, I select the enchantment, no problem, I select the filled soul gem, no problem. I hit the "f" key to rename the item, no problem. Except that once I have typed the new name, I can't get out of the renaming screen, because when I hit the "R" key to create the item, it thinks I'm adding the "R: to the name I am creating, and so it just types an "R" at the end of the new item name. And so on, ad nauseum. I can't tell the game to get the heck out of the naming screen and back into the item creation screen without losing my new name.
Can anyone help?

Can anyone help? I just did it and after you rename the weapon you have to hit return and then you can hit the "r" key to enchant the item.

I know there was an option from the steward, Smoosh, to clean up the mess in that house. For a price, of course. Thank you! I had to reload from an earlier save because apparently if you upgrade the Living Room, the option to clean up the mess disappears. But it's all squeaky clean now and I'm very happy with my new home.

Thanks Oldman, I was just getting ready to load up and check.
Smoosh, so glad it's sparkly now. I wonder if the stewart would arrange to clean up my house?

I just had this great little random moment in the game. I was in Windhelm, in the market area, and I was checking through some barrels that were near the market stalls. I found some salt piles in one and I took them. Then, from just a few feet away from me I hear one woman say "Was she just sifting through the trash?" And then another woman said in reply "Well, sometimes it pays to check every nook and cranny."
I love this game.

Something seems to have gone awry with entering the College of Mages. The first time I went there, I had to cast Fear and didn't have the spell, I went and bought it, but then it turned out I didn't have nearly enough Magica. I went away levelled some more, and came back. Now she doesn't offer the test, and the marker is gone for where I have to cast the spell. Can you get timed out of this test? I really need to get in there, but I've played for a whole day now and no way can I retrace my steps. Also, every time I get to the College, a dragon comes by, which is very annoying. Is that supposed to happen?

Hagatha, I think the dragons are random, though I've noticed more of them at night. Is it daytime when you are trying to go there? I didn't have any problem getting in there, but I have noticed that the one time I was there while a dragon was around, no one would talk to me.

Hi everyone. I'm having a weird issue tonight and was hoping that maybe someone else had figured out how to fix it. I'm doing the Theives Guild quest where you go into Irkngthand with Karliah and Brynjolf (who is really cute btw!) and everything's fine until we get to the sanctuary. When I open the door I can hear Mercer speaking to Karliah, but I can't see him, and then I just become frozen on that ledge, unable to jump down. Then I'm just sort of stuck, and so I checked the wiki to get the console codes to see if I might move the quest along that way, but even though I received updates saying "Skeleton Key found" or whatever, nothing actually happened in that room. Now I'm not sure how to get out of there or how to get the quest moving, and so I'd LOVE some help!  Thanks so much guys, Tracy

Tracy, I found the 2 fixes in Wiki...did you try them both?
I found lots of videos indicating folks had problems being stuck underwater, but not being stuck on the ledge like you are.

They sure are! Can't wait for whatever new Skyrim patches are coming out--hopefully they'll fix some of these little irksome issues. Tracy
