HT1518 Are there a keyboard shortcuts for the alt or option symbol ⌥ and the cmd ⌘ symbol ?

Is there a keyboard shortcut for the alt or option symbol ⌥ and the command symbol ⌘? I need this a lot to take notes from tutorials etc. I know I can copy them from other text or access the special character menu, but I would love to have a easier shortcut.

You can try making one for yourself via system preferences/keyboard/text/symbol and text substitution

Are there any keyboard shortcuts for navigating conversation view?

In sparrow- which I'm coming over from due to it's support of Gmail, you can use various keyboard shortcuts to move back and forth in the thread.
I prefer the Mail layout, but might have to go back if I have to click everywhere!

Some other commands that can make it easier to work with layers:
Frame and Layer Utilites: contains a number of commands for working with layers, like hiding the current layer in all other states but the current one, or moving the layer up or down in the panel. Any of the commands can be assigned keyboard shortcuts. http://johndunning.com/fireworks/about/FrameLayerUtils
QuickFire: lets you quickly match a layer by typing part of its name and then hiding it, locking it, etc. http://johndunning.com/fireworks/about/QuickFire
Solo Selection: hides all elements except the selected ones, so you can work on just a part of the document. Run it again to make everything visible again. http://johndunning.com/fireworks/about/SoloCommand
I'm also working on a command that will you navigate the elements in a doc via the keyboard, which should be ready soon.

Is there a keyboard shortcut for the arrows in grid view?

When you click on an album (or TV-show) in grid view there are two small arrows in the upper right corner, for flicking through to next or previous album.
Question: is there a keyboard shortcut for these arrows? Would be relly nice...
I mean these buttons: http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/2205425/itunes_pilar.png

Ah this is useful!
However... it turns out that you have to press shift as well, so:
For left: ⇧⌘ [ (meaning SHIFT - COMMAND - LEFT SQUARE BRACKET)
For right: ⇧⌘ ] (meaning SHIFT - COMMAND - RIGHT SQUARE BRACKET)

Is there a keyboard shortcut for the open tabs on other computers?

I know that you can click the arrow on the right of the tab bar to access the tabs from other computers, but is there a keyboard shortcut for it, or another way to access it?

And then, you can switch groups by CTRL+` (grave accent, since my kb is portuguese, I have to do CTRL+ SHIFT + ´) or CTRL+~ (tilde)

Problem with keyboard shortcut for font size in CC photoshop. The incriments sometimes work, i.e it goes 1 points at the time, but sometimes it goes 10 or even 20 points at the time. It seems to be very random. Any thoughts?

I just loaded 4,000 songs into I-tunes on a new laptop. All of the songs are checked. Is there a keyboard shortcut to unchek all songs at once in the library?

just loaded 4,000 songs into I-tunes, my entire CD library. All of the songs are checked. Is there a keyboard shortcut to uncheck all songs at one time

Yes, CTRL-click on one of them, but why? Unchecked songs will usually be excluded from any device you sync with and will also be skipped during normal playback. If you're using the first effect to control what goes on your device, and "living with" the second then why not switch to using playlist selections for the device. Otherwise one inadvertent CTRL-click on a checkbox will undo all your selections.

In Safari is there a Keyboard shortcut for Merge All Windows?

Majority of sites sill open new pages in new windows, not new tabs. So, I keep using the Merge All Windows feature all the time. Please, provide a keyboard shortcut for this!

Although there is no default keyboard shortcut for the menu item in question, there is nothing preventing you from creating your own.
Under System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts, press the "+" sign. From the Application drop-down menu, choose Safari. In the Menu Title field enter "Merge All Windows" -- without the quotes. In the Keyboard Shortcut field, enter your desired key combo and then click the Add button.
You'll need to quit System Preferences and restart Safari for the change to take effect. Good luck.

Is there any keyboard shortcut for Lift & Stamp?

I would like to know if there´s any keyboard shortcut for "Lift and Stamp". Something like "copy and paste".

no prob ... just know that that way will lift and
stamp ALL current adjustments ...
to selectively do it, just uncheck the other
adjustments you dont want L&S'd ...
i routinely use this method and rarely use the lift
HUD ('O') ...
Exactly, I find this method very useful in my work.

Is there a keyboard shortcut for the Fade In / Fade out Behavior

I use the Fade in/out behavior a lot and i wonder if there's a shortcut i've not found. what is it?
If there is not, can I create one? or for other behaviors / filters used a lot? Thanks for any help.

There is a way to do this using the System Preferences. I found this tip years ago on a web site I can no longer find anywhere, but I still use it and it still works:
1) Go to the Library, drag the Fade In Fade Out behavior into the Favorites Menu folder in the left-side column.
2) Go to the Favorites menu category in the Library, check to make sure your behavior is there.
3) Go to the Favorites menu in the main menu, check to make sure your behavior is listed as a menu item. Make sure to note the name of the menu item there.
4) If it's there, go to System Preferences, and click on the Keyboard & Mouse icon.
5) Go to Keyboard Shortcuts, click the + button at the bottom left to add a new shortcut.
6) Choose "Motion" from the Applications popup, then type in the exact name of the Fade In Fade Out behavior in the Menu Title box (it has to be exact, otherwise this won't work). You don't need the "Favorites" part, just the menu name, in this case "Fade In Fade Out".
7) Choose whatever key shortcut you want, but make sure it doesn't override any existing ones in Motion!
8) Click Add in the dialog.
Now, when you switch back to Motion, you can press that key you just added and it will instantly add a Fade In/Fade Out behavior to the selected layer automatically. This works with anything you can add to the Favorites Menu, just keep track of the name and you can add custom layers, filters, behaviors, or anything else you can stash in the Library, and recall them with a custom hotkey.

Is there a keyboard shortcut for Opening the Channels Panel?

I've googled, searched discussions, and tried recording actions but haven't found the solution.
What I'd like is a simple keyboard shortcut to open the Channels panel.
That's it.
I can create and run actions that create, delete, or move channels; use the menu or channels tab to open it -- but I can't seem to find a way to use a keystroke combination to open the channels panel like you can do for the layers (F7) or actions (F9) panels.
Anyone have an idea?
Thanks!
-Bonnie

Thank you!
Sometimes things are just simply right in front of you without being seen.
The solution was spot on. I'd somehow not 'seen' the "Application Menu" drop-down in the keyboard shortcuts dialog box.
Now back to post-processing!
Thanks again.

Is there any keyboard shortcuts for navigating through Fireworks layers? Yes there are!

Since I couldn't find a way to post a reply on the original question I decided to create my own discussion on this.
The "alt" key is your best friend when working with layers.
Alt click on show/hide, lock/unlock, and expand and collapse arrows will apply to all.
Example: Lets say you have 20 layers, all unlocked, it is starting to become extremely difficult to select just a single item from a single layer. If you alt click any layer, all your layers will become locked, then you can easily just unselect the layer that has your content in it. Alt clicking again unlocks all your layers. (*note - sometimes sub-layers remain locked even when the parent is unlocked).
Again this works with the show/hide and the expand and collapse toggles as well.
In addition I wrote a command and assigned a shotcut key to it that lets you do several very useful layer interactions with one shortcut key.
My command lets you:
1) Copy all your selected objects (regardless of what layer they are in),
2) Creates a new layer
3) Opens the name layer dialog so that you can name your new layer
4) Paste al your selected objects into your new layer.
You can find this comman here with instructions how to install it and how to set up a shortcut key for it). *Note this command is used with John Dunnings (johndunning.com) layers command.

Is there a keyboard shortcut for the green button?

There appear to be a bazillion keyboard shortcuts, but so far I can't find anything that does what that little green button at the top of every window does (but trying to hit that tiny tiny button with the mouse is a trial).
I did some online searching and at least as of 2006 it doesn't look like this was possible (hard to believe, since Windows has had such a shortcut since the dawn of time) but surely by now this has been added, right? I'm not looking to "maximize" per se, just do exactly what it does when I press that tiny green button (only do it from the keyboard).

You may want to consider this solution.
I tried it and it seems to work so far.

How do I set the keyboard shortcut for zoom tool to be r-clicking the mouse?

I want to have the r-click of my mouse be the zoom tool like in Quark Xpress. Can I make the Z shortcut to choosing the Zoom tool instead a r-click? I know how to get into keyboard shortcuts - just dont know what to type in for the new shortcut to make it a r-click. right now its 2 steps to zoom rather than in quark 1. not that I want to go back. lol.
also, while were talking about migration differences and extra steps, is there a way I can hide guides and set overprint preview in one step? (this is something I do often and was just a simple F7 in quark)
so these are just 2 things that take 2 steps in ID but one in quark. not that I want to go back. lol

OK, I've been doing this since CS2 with no need for a script. To hide guides and show preview...
1) Go to 'Keyboard Shortcuts'
2) Go to 'Product Area - Tools'. Yes, you'd think it would be in Views! But the buttons for this is at the bottom of the Tool Bar.
3) Go to 'Commands: Toggle view setting between default and preview'
4) Click your cursor inside 'New Shortcut' and hit the key you want or type it in. I choose the unused F2 key
5) Click the 'Assign' button and you are set. Hit the key to switch back and forth.
As for your mouse Zoom, use Power Zoom as described above or just hold down the Alt/Option button in 'Hand' mode and use the scroll wheel to zoom in and out. Not one step but it works!
Now you won't miss Quark at all!
