Short cut for copying a cd or dvd data disk?

Is there a keyboard shortcut for copying a data disk, CD or DVD?
I know I can create a folder, then copy all the data off a CD or DVD into
that folder and effectively get the same thing, but I was wondering if
there was a one keyboard keyboard shortcut.
When you do right click and copy of a data disk, what you get is just
an alias to the disk, not a copy.
Thanks.

Mount the CD/DVD/disk Image, OPTION-click on the disk icon at the top of the window that opens, and drag to the Desktop or another Finder window. That should create a folder containing everything whatever you mounted.

Hi. After loading a picture into Photoshop some of the menu tools are greyed out and I cannot use the keyboard short cuts, for instance I cannot use Ctrl + T for free transform, how do I resolve this problem. In addition the tool Icons are so small I have to get close to the screen to see them, is there anyway the Icons can be made bigger without reducing the resolution of the screen.
Thanks

Are you working on a background layer? If so, Ctrl + T will not work. Press Alt and double-click your background layer to convert to a normal layer (or right-click BG layer and select Layer from Background) and try again.
If you're working in Photoshop CC 2014 you can go to Preferences > Experimental Features and tick "Scale UI 200% for high-density displays" to make your buttons and icons larger.

Keyboard short-cut for Restart and Shutdown?

Since recent keyboards and Mac OS X doesnt have keyboard short-cuts for Shutdown and Restart, is it possible to create new ones for these functions?
Also, why doesnt Mac OS X have these anymore (such as when it had the keyboard with that button you hit to bring up dialog box to shutdown, restart, etc).. that's what I'm looking for...
As for the reason I want this.. sometimes my display goes blank and I can't see anything and hence since you cant see the screen to mouse over to restart, etc... if I could hit a keyboard combo to bring up the restart dialog box and I then hit Enter, it would execute that action...

The Shutdown and Restart shortcuts are here

Because you do not leave a short cut for old versions in the sites? Do not understand that the updating can bring us unpleasant surprises and perhaps it be necessary to do a downgrade of version?

New versions not always work for all. Put in Your sites, '''CLEAR''' and '''of QUITE VISIBLE form''', a '''short cut''' for the '''old versions'''.

Please be aware that anything except Firefox 10.0 and Firefox 3.6.26 don't have the latest security fixes, and Mozilla really doesn't want any other version to be downloaded. That is why Mozilla doesn't provide links to download any other version.

I installed iCloud on to a pc. The shorts cuts did not include notes. Is there a way to have a short cut for notes or do I need to logon to icloud every time to use notes on my pc?

Open the Mac App Store on your MacBook Pro
Hold the Option key and click on “Purchases”
Hold the Option key and click on “OS X Lion” from the purchased app list
“Installed’ should now say “Install” which allows you to download OS X Lion.
This assumes you are using the same Apple ID on both computers.
Lion does not get installed on an iPad. It runs iOS.

(like ctrl+d for cross dissolve)

If you are at the end of an audio clip and its not butted against another (which it shouldnt be because audio clips should be on separate tks)...
CTRL-Shift -D will give you an audio fade. instead of aan audio cross dissolve.

Windows compatible dvd data disk

Is it possible to burn a dvd data disk that is windows compatible? I've burnt a copy via the finder and they are not recognized by XP.
Thanks,
Glor

Glor,
To add to my earlier post, it is possible to create a data disk readable in Windows using Toast. I'm not sure whether you have the program, but if so, this article contains more information on same.

Creating a Windows 7 OS desktop short cut for gmail with Firefox as browser, not internet explorer

I have an HP laptop that originally had Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit OS. I recently upgraded to Windows 7 64-bit OS. I want to generate a desktop shortcut for gmail that uses Firefox as the browser not internet explorer (8). If I use IE 8 as the brower and enter in gmail.com, gmail opens. I can right click on that page and create a gmail desktop short cut with IE 8 as the browser. If I try the same steps using Firefox as the opened browser, I can't create a desktop short cut by right clicking...it is not an option. I can't make Firefox my default browser for everything as my work programs/shortcuts require IE. Again, how do I create a direct gmail desktop shortcut that uses Firefox as the browser, not IE 8, when IE 8 has to be the default browser?

You could create a shortcut to open Firefox with a specific site using a command line argument.
You can copy the shortcut that you use to open Firefox, then right-click on it and choose '''Properties'''. On the shortcut tab, you will see the target, it will look something like this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
You can add gmail.com to this shortcut so it looks like this:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" gmail.com

Are there short-cuts for these common tasks?

hello --
i am a professional UX/UI designer, who recently switched from Illustrator as my preferred tool to Photoshop. while i loved the ability to have multiple canvases in Illustrator, the general quality on a pixel level rendering is far superior in Photoshop. In addition, my clients generally are not able to use .ai files. so far migrating has been a good experience and i am happy with it. however, i do find myself frequently repeating a few tasks for which i wonder if there are any short-cuts, work-arounds, or i am just plain missing something. any help will be much appreciated:
generally i find that PS gets very slow when the files is somewhat large (~255MB right now). i do use many layer effects in general, so that might be the issue. but when i nudge a folder or group of items i frequently get a progress indicator. i have all teh performace settings at its ideal and allocated 70% of the 8GB i have in my machine. Still it becomes unusable, when i have upwards 10-15 screens to work with.
Is it possible to assign a gradient to a vector mask, in order to achieve partial transparency? for a layer mask, no problem, but what about vector masks? can i asign a gradient overlay effect to a mask instead of drawing it by hand?
when i do a transformation on a vector shape, the default always seems to be % instead of px, it also defaults to the center orientation point, and height & width are not linked. is there a way to either set this as a preference, or a keyboard shortcut, instead of having to click everytime?
The font smoothing always defaults to "sharp" while i prefer using "crisp" can this be set globally?
is using the position & layer style checkbox in layer comps useful to you guys who might be in the same line of work? so far i find it easier to create new folder for each state, but realize it may cause the slowness i refer to in #1
this is a big one: when i copy layer effects and shape attributes, it seems like there is no simple short-cut command for it. so i end up doing 2 copy & paste operations each time. is there a way ideally to select a shape and then copy & paste both values at the same time?
another big one: i often duplicate a layer or a folder, but then need to move it into a different folder. i fondmyself dragging it all the way around the palette, which is a big hassle. is there a way to just copy & paste a layer into the right position?
i minor nuisance: whenever i duplicate a layer, PS adds the label "copy" to that new layer. i feel it is unnecessary and in the end my file gets somewhat meaningless through it. is there a way to avoid this or have you guys found a better way in doing this?
i know this is quite a lot, but might be also helpful to others. i would greatly appreciate your thoughts & help on those.
thank you in advance,
patrick.

Not sure I fully understand what you're doing now, but here's what I do:
1. I right-click on the layer I want to copy effects from and choose Copy Layer Style.
2. Then I left click and Control-left click on all the layers I want to paste the style to, then right-click on any of them and choose Paste Layer Style.
Is that what you were talking about re doing 2 operations?
Note that if you have styles you use over again a lot, you can create a preset. You access those by double clicking a layer, then clicking on the Styles heading at the upper-left.

Short Cut for Ratings in iTunes?

Hi,
I'm looking to find out the shortcut on how to give my songs a rating without having to select the stars each time with my mouse. Is there a short cut like there is like in iPhoto where you click command and the number and it rates it for you.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Mrsoopy

There's an add on program called Synergy, which I've used which will allow you to set keyboard shortcuts for ratings. There are also probably a variety of other programs that do the same thing. Try a search at www.versiontracker.com
In the end, I found it was easier to just use the iTunes icon in the dock rather than try to remember shortcuts, keep another piece of software up to date, etc.
