Keyboard shortcuts won't work – please help

I have Dreamweaver CS3 on a PC with Windows XP, and recently had to reinstall my operating system to recover from a malware attack.  Ever since I redid my computer, I’ve been unable to use any keyboard shortcuts in Dreamweaver.  For example, Ctrl+v pastes in any other program, but in Dreamweaver, I only get a white arrow cursor with a white box in the bottom right of the cursor as soon as I press Ctrl.  F12 is set to preview a page in my default browser, but pressing it has no apparent effect. Does anyone have any advice on getting my keyboard shortcuts to work properly?  Thanks in advance.

Sorry, but you may have to reinstall Dreamweaver to get it to recognize your 'new' installation.
This has nothing to do with Dreamweaver not working correctly, but getting your os to recognize the keyboard shortcuts from the dreamweaver instalation.

  • Zoom keyboard shortcut won't work with "Italian Pro" keyboard, Zoom keyboard shortcut won't work with "Italian Pro" keyboard

    Hi everyone,
    I am trying to get to the bottom of this mystery. "Italian Pro" is the keyboard I use almost all the time, and for some reason this zoom shortcut won't work. Another user assured me that "cmd-+" is the shortcut also in that keyboard. Mine doesn't work though. I have tried removing the keyboard and reapplying it. I've tried to use it on different browsers and different applications. I've even created another user and logged into that, installing the keyboard there. Nothing has worked, so can anyone suggest anything? What do I do next? (I know it doesn't seem like much but the issue really interferes with the flow of my things) Thank you!

    Is Italian Pro
    a. the keyboard, or,
    b. the keyboard layout
    you use all the time?
    for some reason this zoom shortcut won't work.
    What zoom are you talking about?
    The View > Zoom In command in Safari or Preview?
    The Universal Access > Zoom In function?
    The Zoom In command in some other app, eg, InDesign?
    Some other Zoom entirely?
    Another user assured me that "cmd-+" is the shortcut also in that keyboard.
    If we're talking about (b) and (1), then this 'other user' (his initials wouldn't be TG, would it?) was right. My keyboard is US QWERTY, and, if I switch to Italian Pro, ⌘-+ works. However, as the 'other user' has already told you, to do ⌘-+ with the Italian Pro keylayout on the US QWERTY keyboard, you have to press simultaneously the keys labelled ⌘ and ] -- as you can easily see in Keyboard Viewer.

  • Undo keyboard shortcut won't work

    I have quite a bizaare problem - the keyboard shortcut for undo will work after I restart my computer, but after awhile, it simply stops working.  I am thus forced to click on Edit->Undo every time I want to undo something.  Once the shortcut stops working, it applies to all applications.  I have not been able to identify any "trigger" which causes it to stop working.  I've tried to "Restore defaults" in the Keyboard shortcuts tab under the Keyboards menu, but this didn't have any effect.  Any ideas?

  • I have a 6gb micro and it won't work, please help

    first off, the thing worked fine for the first day! i used microsoft media player to sync some songs to it without installing the software. well, the battery died, remembering it only has a 2 hour battery life! thing is, it wouldn't charge when it was hooked up the computer, it wouldn't even recognize it, so i called customer service and after an hour of being on hold, the lady tells me to install the software and it would work fine. when i did that, guess what, it didn't! it did the same thing, it wouldn't recognize the player and the player would not charge. i would think it was the usb cord, but the battery gets really hot, but the thing just won't turn on and the computer won't recognize it! please help me!

    It's strange. How did you even manage syncing without installing the software on your computer - i mean, the computer has to recognise it before it can start processes.
    Nevertheless, here is a thread which might prove to be useful in making your player recognized: http://forums.creative.com/creativel...message.id=723

  • F7 and F8 Keyboard shortcuts won't work correctly.

    I've just recently installed LR3.6 and it's my first experience with LR.  I've been following Lynda.com tutorials and all of a sudden the F7 and F8 function keys won't work.
    The F7 just does nothing and the F8 opens iTunes every time I press it.  I've tried everthing I know (not being much of a Techie) without success.  I installed one upgrade download since I installed the original CD software. Should I just delete the program and re-install the program?  I believe the F-keys were woking originally.  I'm sorry, but I was going thru the tutorials and not being as observant as I should.  All I know for certain is that they do not work now.
    I'm using an iMac 27 with the wireless keyboard. OSX 10.6.8.
    Thanks for any help. - John, Vancouver, WA

  • [solved] xfce keyboard shortcuts won't work, tried arch wiki solution

    Keyboard shortcuts defined in the xfce's keyboard settings don't work,  as described in the wiki:
    http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xfc … 7t_working
    When I kill xfce4-settings-helper the shortcuts work again. After restarting X the problem returns. I renamed '/etc/xdg/autostart/xfce4-settings-helper-autostart.desktop' and  '~/.config/autostart/xfce4-settings-helper-autostart.desktop' as described in the wiki, But the second file is regenerated  after restarting X. Does anyone know a good solution?

  • Spaces keyboard shortcuts won't work

    i just got my new MBP, and i have noticed a little problem.
    all of the F1-F12 keys were all given default functionality (i.e. F3 is Expose, F4 is Dashboard...).
    well, when trying to set up the shortcuts for Spaces navigation, I have noticed that, no matter what F key I press, the default functionality is getting called and not the Spaces navigation.
    I have even tried this with the command/control additions to the F keys, and have had no luck. i thought i read that this was a known issue with the most recent version of OS X.
    has anyone else noticed this problem, and does anyone know of a solution?
    thanks you.

    apparently, i was looking in the wrong place. this was addressed in the os x forum.
    using the command-arrow keys to switch between desktops will work fine with me, although i would like full functionality.
    sorry for the repost. if anyone does know the real solution, please don't hesitate to let me know. it seems as though, while some people can get it to work, os x eventually forgets the keyboard shortcuts.
    hope it gets fixed.

  • Keyboard Shortcuts Won't work

    I'm using "Audacity", a free audio editing app and have to repeatedly export my audio files as a WAV, but there's no built in command.
    - I went to Keyboard and Mouse in System Prefs
    - Went to Keyboard Shortcuts
    - Added the application to the list
    - Added the menu item exactly as it appears in the menu ("Export As WAV...")
    - Input a shortcut command and closed System Prefs
    - Restarted Audacity.
    No luck. I then changed the key command and no luck. I took out the "..." in the menu item and no luck. Do I have to imply what drop menu it's in? Like, do I need to put "File, Export As WAV..."?
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks,

    Thanks Tom! Got some inspiration from the search! In System Preferences, Language and Text, I picked "Region: US" and "US Keyboard" for "Input source" and... the problem is solved! I'll have to do this each time I want to work with FCE, but that's not too bad.
    Thanks again for the quick reply.

  • Automatic Update Won't Work, Please Help!

    Please help. I have the new 5G iPod and it has kinda been working fine for me. Everytime I go to plug it into my computer, the automatic udate won't start. The little iPod icon in the corner won't show up and when I go to pref. and click on iPod it says there is no iPod connected. I tried to restart the computer and iPod and plug it into a different USB port but still nothing works. I know I have new songs on there that I want to update on but the "Do not disconect" screen won't even come up. Any help would be great, thanks! =)

    Try this:
    Create a new user and make sure it is an Administrator account. Download and install iTunes.
    If it installs properly, log out and then back in as you.
    Uninstall iTunes using the method in this article:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925
    Then install from the link in my previous post:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1615
    Have you been having problems with your laptop before this?
    You can always try a system restore too if the above steps don't work.
    Start > All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore > Next > pick a restore point (you will get later dates if you check the "Show more restore points" box) I would go back at least a couple days > Next > Finish. It may take a while then it will reboot. On reboot it will finish the restore so it may take longer than normal to boot. This will not change any of personal files, only system and program files.

Anyway when I went to press okay it wouldnt do anything. The buttons are all working fine though because they work when I press them to stop the screen from going dim. But thats all they will do.

  • Audio Won't Work PLEASE HELP!!!

    I imported a video into iMovie and when I play it the sound wont work. The audio boxes on the clip bar are checked and everything but there is no sound. Sound works in iTunes and other applications but not iMovie. Is it because the video tape I recorded with is an HD video tape? What do I do? Please help ASAP. Thank you!

    Hi mgoldenberg - welcome to Apple discussions!
    Frankly, I do not know why. I cannot imagine it is because of the tape. Does the sound play OK on the tape within the camera? The volume slider below the imovie screen is at the far right? Does an imported song play OK within iMovie? You have not inadvertently muted the video clips by dragging the volume down - can be done in two ways:
    1. by clicking on the small speaker icon at the bottom of the iMovie window and dragging down the vertical slider.
    2. Going View>Show Clip Volume Levels, and dragging down the thin line that appears through the clips.
    Are you using an external drive to store your projects - if so it must be formatted OS Mac Extended and not for Windows.
    Maybe you should try repairing permissions:
    Applications>Utilities>Disk Utility - chose the startup disk, and click 'repair permissions'.
    If that has no effect, then try this:
    Find and delete this file after closing iMovie:
    Users (you)>Library>Preferences>com.apple.imovie.plist
    Let us know how you have got on.
