Left Arrow Key Closes during Rename

Has anybody else noticed sometimes that when you're renaming a file and using the left arrow key to move through the text, the Finder closes the editability of that file name? As you proceed to use the left arrow key, it would close subfolder after subfolder (if you're in list view). It' pretty annoying for power-users since I'm used to renaming file after file without using the mouse. I navigate with arrow keys a lot.

Yes, I get this too, it's really annoying, I'm going to look for a way to stop the left arrow closing the folder, maybe it's in the keyboard short cuts in system settings, and just needs removing. So annoying, especially for newbies.

Left arrow key does not go back one character at a time

on my key pad, I cannot backup "over" characters one space at a time I am not looking to DELETE, merly to backup one character at a time. I know I can use the function key along with the arrow key for word at a time jump. I can jump one character to the right by pushing that key but I cannot do that with my left arrow key. slight annoyance, but I swear it worked before. . .

The arrow to open the tab history of the Back and Forward buttons has been removed in Firefox 4 and later.
Use one of these methods to open the tab history list:
* Right click on the Back or Forward button
* Hold down the left mouse button on the enabled Back or Forward button until the list opens
You can look at this extension:
* Backward Forward History Dropdown: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/backforedrop/

Left arrow key -- probably a stupid question.

In some applications my left arrow key doesn't work. I've noticed it most in Word for mac, but I know it has happened elsewere, too. And in safari the left arrow key tabs often functions like tab. I'm new to Mac (and just getting used to fn + delete to delete forward). Is this another key combination thing I'm missing? I've discovered using Word that fn + <-- is "home," and that works just fine.
Thanks!

I have this exact same problem. Has anyone found a fix. I called Apple Care and they said it was not a hardware problem, as this left arrow key problem only happens in Word. They also could not find a fix to the problem and, of course, referred me to Microsoft. I had already spoken with Microsoft and they, of course, referred me to Apple. I am desperately trying to a fix, as I use Word to write upwards of 100 page reports and not being able to use the left arrow key is a nightmare.
Please someone help.

HELP: Shift-left arrow key shortcut

I've got a weird problem that started sometime recently on my MacBook Pro. When I press Shift and left arrow key it is "hiding or showing all open windows." I want to change this back to what it used to be: "extend text selection one character to the left (*)".
I went to the the System Preferences>Keyboard>Keyboard Shortcuts but I could not find Shift-left arrow key listed anywhere in there.
Can anyone help me? This is driving me crazy.

Hi,
I spent some time finding an App that had the "Orignal Action" of Backspacing the Highlighting.
Word (2204) seems to have it (TextEdit didn't)
I have Word but don't use it much.
I did find this:-
Looking at the one on display I go to item 3 before getting lost
Hope it give you some clues.
The Print Instructions may help to see what is listed and possibly Set.
Print a list of shortcut keys
1. On the Tools menu, point to Macro, and then click Macros.
2. On the Macros in pop-up menu, click Word commands.
3. In the Macro name box, click ListCommands.
4. Click Run.
5. In the List Commands dialog box, click Current menu and keyboard settings, and then click OK.
6. On the File menu, click Print.
Note If you made changes to shortcut key assignments, the changes are included in the printed list of shortcut keys. Shortcut keys you assigned to macros are not included.

TS1381 My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226). I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, test all other keys with keyboard view (all others work) - HELP!!

My left arrow does not work on my macbook pro(model A1226).
I have reset nvram, performed a safe boot, pulled the cache to desktop, replaced .globalpreference.plist, & tested all other keys with "keyboard viewer" (all other keys work except for the arrow).
In addition, I have gone thru all the recommended checks with universal access and have booted from snow leopard dvd and the left arrow still does not work.
I have tried using the left arrow key in all of applications I use such as: excel, ms word, address book, calendar, iphoto, terminal, & highlighting an icon and using the arrows to move to another selected icon.
Here is the kicker! In addition, I purchased a logitech solar bluetooth keyboard and the arrows work fine with my ipad but do not work when paired with the macbook pro. All other keys work fine on the macbook pro using the bluetooth keyboard.
I believe this says that the problem is not in my macbook pro keyboard. So where can it be?
Can anyone think of any other rabbit holes I can search?
thanks and regards

I would also like to add that I've reverted the two cd drive and hard drive mods I did and the laptop is back to factory hardware and there is 0 corrosion or mold visible.

Using left and right arrow keys as accesskeys

I am trying to remediate an online course and need to apply left arrow key to next button (advance to next page) and right arrow key to back button (return to previous page). Does anyone have javascript code that would allow this?

This is already built into major browsers. This assumes the browser history folder contains more than one page. If the browser's history folder is empty, nothing will happen.
For Windows users:
Alt+Left arrow = back one page.
Alt+Right arrow = forward one page.

Left- and right arrow key out of order

Hi,
I'm afraid to need your help again. My left and right arrow keys doesn't work as they're supposed to. While can neither navigate through my desktop icons nor the buttons in any dialog nor the text I'm just writing. The cursor stops blinking as soon as I press one of these keys so the system recognizes the key press but the cursor doesn't move. Showkey returns the keycodes 105 left and 106 for the right arrow key.
While logging in with LXDM im able to navigate back and foth while entering my password as well as the keys work properly in tty. It seems to be only LXDE, where the keys are not working.
Furthermore my function keys like mute, volume up and down and so on aren't working too. I don't know if both errors are relatet to another.
Maybe anyone has an idea what I might do to fix this?

I think I use lxdm to log in. As soon as I'm logged in, I'm using lxde. Ist this what you have to know?
no, you have to know it.
i meant: when you login with lxdm, do you have a choice between lxde-session and openbox-session (or sth similar) because there's a difference how openbox gets started and which config files are parsed.
It's an lxde-session. And LXDE uses openbox-lxde as displaymanager.

The part of the rc.xml I posted beforehand is the only one in that file that is tagged with <keyboard> and there is no binding for the left or right arrow key. There are some in combination with the control or shift key but that shouldn't do anything regarding my problem.

Absolutely.

Yes, exactly.

I use firefox which is, as far as I know, Gtk-based. But I installed QupZilla and gabe it a try. Unfortunatelly the same error shows up there.
I don't know if I'm right but lxde should be gtk-based itself and running a non-Gtk software in gtk-based lxde would show up the same gtk-errors to, wouldn't it? So eventually I'd have to try a non-Gtk software in a non-Gtk desktop environment in order to check whether the error doesn't show up under non-gtk software?

Left and right arrow keys don't work

My right and left arrow keys do not work, up and down arrows work fine. I did not spill anything on or near my keyboard. I don't recall adding any apps/software. It is a late 2008 MacBook Pro running OS X10.9.1. I am at a loss. Please help.
Thanks,
David

Call 1-800-SOS-APPL. If it needs hardware repair, they will send you a box to ship it in for service. Turnaround time is usually just a few days.
You might try an Archive and Install first to eliminate a software issue. Apple will have you do that anyway.

How do I browse through pictures (in open state) using arrow keys

Hi all. I know this is a lame question. But I am new to Mac. How do we navigate through photos in open mode. I mean usually in Windows, we open one picture and use arrow keys to navigate between photos.What are the keys I can use to navigate between photos. As of now, I have to close the photo and then double tap on another to view it. Thanks.

What application are you using? In iPhoto you can just use the right and left arrow keys to browse photos...

Using the arrow keys to move objects in photoshop issue

When I move objects around in Photoshop using the arrow keys something odd to me happens. When I press the left arrow key it seems to move 2 pixels then when I press the right arrow key it seems like it moves 1 pixel. I noticed this when I had 3 objects. One was centered and I wanted to move both the other objects 20 pixels away. One looked twice as far away. I looked closer and I found out that was the problem. This also happens when using the up and down arrow keys. Is that supposed to happen and is there a way to fix it? Thanks

BOILERPLATE TEXT:
If you give complete and detailed information about your setup and the issue at hand, such as your platform (Mac or Win), exact versions of your OS, of Photoshop and of Bridge, machine specs, such as total installed RAM, scratch file HDs, video card specs, what troubleshooting steps you have taken so far, what error message(s) you receive, if having issues opening raw files also the exact camera make and model that generated them, etc., someone may be able to help you.

CTI Doesn't Move with Arrow Keys PE12

I am running into a glitch in Premiere Elements 12. When I nudge the CTI (playhead) using the arrow keys it moves only 1 frame no matter how many times I press the over arrow. The audio continues to scrub and the time indicator continues to change for each frame, but the CTI itself is stuck and no longer represents the proper location.
Anyone solved this?
I am using a MacBook Pro running OS 10.8.5.

Thanks ATR for you reply, here I will try to explain my findings.
My hw. sw. setup
MACBook Pro, OS X 10.9.4, 16Gb, licensed Premiere Elements 12.1 upgraded from 12.0
Just to confirm....are you saying that if you do just a one tap on the right or left arrow key, the Timeline Indicator will move 1 frame.              YES (if slow repeat).
But, if you hold down and continue to hold down on the right of the right or left arrow key, the Timeline Indicator will not go into a continuing movement?     YES.
>> Today I have found that this problem only show up in ”Expert” edit mode and not in ”Quick” mode.
      1. Current Timeline Indicator (CTI) only move/jump one frame when I first start to hold right or left key pressed, after this first jump CTI will stop to move,
            my movie and time counter will move and count as expected.
      2. If I repeat pressing right or left key with a speed faster than one press per 3seconds the CTI will be stopped, slower repeat than every 3 second then CTI will move on every key press.
      3. Note1   when CTI not move during continue key press or fast repeat R/L (< 3sec) the accumulated new CLI position will show up as a long jump on next press after 3sec paus.
      4. Note2   I have also verifies with my Win7 friend with a new installed PE 12.1 running just fine without this CTI problem. (MAC version only??)
If so, several things that I would like you to do if you have not already....
1. Delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file which should be found
    Users\Libraries\Application Support\Adobe\Premiere Elements\12
>> After I delete the Adobe Premiere Elements Prefs file I did restart PE12 program and created a new project ( an new PE Prefs was automatic create in the same directory as expected)
      But unfortunately my problem is still there.
2. In the opened project, go to Edit Menu/Preferences/General and experiment with the Timeline Playback Auto-Scrolling Options (No Scroll, Page Scroll, and Smooth Scroll).
ATR Premiere Elements Troubleshooting: PE12/12.1: Timeline Playback Auto-Scrolling
>> Thanks, here I found lot of good reading but your suggestion to change the Timeline Playback Auto-Scrolling Options did change scrolling behavior,
       unfortunately my problem is still there.
I am strictly an Elements Windows user, so please double check the translation of the suggested locations from Windows to Mac.
How would describe your issue - "it worked before but not now" or "it never worked before".
>> My best answer must be; I have not seen this problem before but I´m trying to learn video editing so I could have missed the CTI behavior.
Looking forward to your follow up.
Thank you.
Add On...Like the originator of this thread, are you working with a tryout of Premiere Elements 12/12.1?
No this is a licensed version 12.0 upgraded to 12.1
Summary:
My conclusion must be that this CTI behavior is a software bug (maybe only in MAC versionPE12 or in some combination).
How to fix my problem:
Will a reinstall likely fix the problem?
Or is´t a case for Adobe Support to handle?
I´m happy for any help here.
Regards.

Make num keys function as arrow keys

my left arrow key is not working so i'm wondering if there's a way to make my number keys function as arrow keys. i'm using an apple keyboard with numeric keypad on os x 10.6.8 (late 2009 imac)
thanks

Laptops map the keyboard differently as they are also
using the F1-F12 keys to control screen brightness,
speakers, etc. To access FCP specific uses, you need
to hold down the FN key in the lower left as a
modifer.
Since this a pain in the butt you may want to do
this:
Open up System Preferences
select Keyboard & Mouse
select the Keyboard item on the bar
click on "Use the F1-F12 keys for custom actions"
close.
This should return your function keys to 'normal'
operation. Now if you want to brighten or dim your
screen, hold down the FN key (lower left of the
keyboard) to modify the F# key.
good luck.

Thanks a lot! This resolved the problem!
I appreciate all the time you people are putting in helping me and others
