Accessing passwords using keyboard shortcuts

Hi,
Is there any way I can store passwords or usernames I use for websites that can be accessed via a keyboard shortcut. For example, if I'm browsing in Safari and my bank's website asks for my username, I'd like to be able to press a combination of keystrokes that would automatically enter that username.
Thanks

I don't know of a shortcut to do what you ask, though I use the shortcut hotkeys manager Spark http://versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/22675 to open apps and documents. But it includes the ability to launch applescripts with hotkeys, so there might be a way to do it that way if you know how to write those.
I have several online bank accounts and how I handle the problem you outline is this. I have a Word document with the numbers and passwords of the different accounts in a list. The Document is locked but the password is a single letter for easy opening. When I go to a bank account and it asks for my user number I open the Word document and cut and paste the relevant number to the online account.
By the way it is easier for me to get to the Word document with the Bank details because using Spark I have a shortcut hotkey to access it.

How can I access alt-menu keyboard shortcuts in fullscreen?

When Firefox is not in fullscreen mode, I can access all the functions of the menu bar by pressing the appropriate alt-letter keyboard shortcut (alt-f for file menu, alt-e for edit, etc).
This seems to be disabled in fullscreen mode. So I have to get out of fullscreen, pull down the menu, and then go back to fullscreen. How can I use keyboard shortcuts to access the menu while in fullscreen mode?

<blockquote>Did you rename the userChrome-example.css to userChrome.css? </blockquote>
Yup.
<blockquote>What is the file path of the userChrome.css file?</blockquote>
/usr/lib/firefox/chrome
<blockquote>Do you get the Menu bar if you hover the mouse to the top in full screen mode (F11) with the code in userChrome.css? </blockquote>
I get the tabs and the navigation toolbar, but no menu bar.
<blockquote>Does other code in that file work?</blockquote>
Oops, didn't try that. I'll give it a whirl.
Aaaaaand this is where I confess that this is a dual boot system, and I got the userChrome-example.css from the Win7 side because there was no userChrome.css file on my system. I got it from here:
/host/users/(me)/AppData/Roaming/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/(random alphanumeric).default/chrome

FAQ: How do I trim in the Timeline using keyboard shortcuts in Premiere Pro CS6 and CC?

You can now trim with a lot more keyboard shortcuts in the Timeline in Premiere Pro CS6 and CC. See this article for details: Timeline trimming using keyboard shortcuts in Premiere Pro CS6.

I'm relieved (if a little frustrated!) that others have the same issues, it makes me feel at least it's not just me! :-)
I am running Windows 7 64 bit Intel quad core processor 8Gb RAM if that helps Jim?
Another quick test shows I have exactly the same issues as shooternz and Ann Bens above at 7 & 8 respectively. An audio only or audio/video clip from Bin to SM and I can add markers on the fly perfectly. Audio/video from the timeline to SM works just the same. Audio only from the timeline will not work however.
I tried linking a video clip to my audio clip to see if that would allow me to add markers then unlink and remove the video... but when I opened that in SM the add marker button was greyed out and the keyboard shortcut (M) didn't work either!
Curiouser and curiouser...

Timeline trimming using keyboard shortcuts in Premiere Pro CS6

Just wrote a new blog post about Timeline trimming using keyboard shortcuts in Premiere Pro CS6.
It's in the FAQ now, as well.
Check it out.

Good question. If/when it does it again, I'll check. However, until you asked that, I never noticed the keyboard layout options and that one of them is CS5.5. That's an easier fix for me than re-customizing everything, as I was just wanting the CS5 layout.
Something else I noticed is that my workspace is set for "Import from Project" and I'm supposing it's possible that the keyboard layout is connected to the workspace and might be either resetting it to CS6 or custom, which may or may not have had those customizations. About 25% of the projects I'm working on currently are pre-CS6, so every time I load one of those up, it might be making everything else go wonky.
In any event, I have a better idea what to look out for now. Thanks

Using keyboard shortcuts with the text tool active

How does one use keyboard shortcuts when the Text Tool is selected? For example, how do I switch to the Selection Tool when the Text Tool is active? I cannot press "V", as it simply types the letter "v" instead of switching to the Selection Tool.

Thank you!! I knew it would be an easy solution

ITunes 11.2.0.114 Library Navigation no longer works by using keyboard shortcuts

In particular, when viewing my library via the "Albums" tab, I can no longer navigate to an artist simply by starting to type their corresponding letter. For example, before I updated to version 11.2.0.114 yesterday, I was able to type in the letter "s" and I would be navigated to the beginning of all the artists in my library starting with the letter "s". Likewise, if I would continue to type, "sa..." it would navigate to the corresponding artist/place in my library.
Now when I try to navigate through my library in this manner, it seems as if the letters have no meaning anymore; typing in "s" could bring me to artists in the "b" range.
I am using Windows 8. Please help if you can!
Thank you.

Exactly the same problem with me - iTunes 12.2.2, on OS X 10.9.3. It was perfect one day, then bam, the next day the keyboard shortcuts stopped working properly. It's pretty frustrating.

MSI G70, can't adjust volume in game using keyboard shortcuts

Hello! Brand new MSI laptop, so awesome. However, I am unable to adjust the volume in-game using the keyboard shortcut FN+left arrow or FN+right arrow. It works fine outside of the game. I can also adjust the brightness in the game using FN+up arrow or FN+down arrow.
The games I've tried this in so far are Skyrim and Team Fortress 2. Any suggestions?

Quote from: RX-8 on 02-March-15, 12:38:02
The game just preempts the audio control from OS and make function keys ineffective. You'll need to ask the game designer.
I don't think that can be right. I didn't have any problem adjusting the volume in these same games with my last laptop using the keyboard shortcuts.

How to skip words using keyboard shortcuts

Using Ctrl+Rt arrow usually skips words when typing in a free text box but FF uses that keyboard command to move through the open tabs. Is this customizable?
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== typing in a text field

on the Keyboard Shortcuts page, under the Windows & Tabs section, it says that CTRL + LEFT ARROW (or RIGHT ARROW) will navigate between tabs. this means that when you are in a text box (e.g. typing an email in a web based email provider like gmail, or in the box i am typing this reply in right now) when you press CTRL + L/R ARROW it changes tabs instead of skipping words. so basically firefox is overriding ability to skip words using CTRL + L/R ARROW. this is rather annoying when typing emails using firefox. i have resorted to typing my emails in a word processor, then pasting into gmail.
is there a way to disable the CTRL + L/R ARROW shortcut in firefox? it seems redundant to even have that shortcut because CTRL + PGUP/PGDN already does this.
i did find [http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=211030 this page] on the ubuntu forums with a user experiencing the same issue. one user suggested the following (quoted below), but it didnt work for me because the setting was already set to true.
QUOTE FROM UBUNTU FORUMS:
In firefox, type about:config in the adress bar and change layout.word_select.stop_at_punctuation to True

I cannot use keyboard shortcut to quit Safari after Java update

I don't seem to be able to use the quit function (cmd+q). Only if I turn off Java again. I have updated it a few minutes ago, can't see which version it is. 14?
Does anyone else have this problem?

Also, go into System Preferences->Keyboard & Mouse->Keyboard Shortcuts and click the "Restore Defaults" button. See if that helps.

It's in the YOURNAME/Library/Preferences/ folder. Hopefully that fix will stick.
Note: That won't do what you think it does. See http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6521022 for a (long) explanation. Force quitting the Finder after blowing away com.apple.finder.plist will do what you want.

How to use keyboard shortcut OPTION SHIFT COMMAND PLUS?

The application I am using has two keyboard shortcuts for changing the KERN of some text:
TIGHTEN = OPTION + SHIFT + COMMAND + MINUS
LOOSEN = OPTION + SHIFT + COMMAND + PLUS
The TIGHTEN command works fine but the LOOSEN command doesn't. If I plug in an external keyboard then it works fine as long as I use the or on the NUMPAD.
Any suggestions?

Thanks a lot for your post. I tried your suggestion and indeed got the Excel short-cut back. It wasn't obvious as "Mission Control" and "Application Windows" are mapped to F9 and F10 (rather than the ctrl-shift-down" combo).
It's ok since I don't really have any use for shortcut launching "Mission Control" or "Application windows".

Captivate 6 How to validate user input without using keyboard shortcuts

I've been using Adobe Captivate 6 for about 4 months now. Completely new to the program. The number one function of Captivate for me will to create many software simulations for verifiable training. This means that I will be utilizing the training and assessment modes A LOT. I have run into many hurdles throughout the process, but one of my biggies right now is this:
In the training and assessment modes, I have times where the user must input data such as an address or number. In the actual software they will be utilizing it is not always required to use TAB or ENTER in order to move to the next field. In some instances, it will be necessary to actually click into a field after entering data. My problem is that it seems as if Captivate will not allow this, as a keyboard shortcut is automatically entered even if a TAB or ENTER is not required after input. I assume this is so that the inputted information can be verified. If you decide you do not want to use a keyboard shortcut to validate the inputted information, you must have a submit button. Is there any way to change this?? All I want is for the user to enter information and then click into another field WITHOUT having to press ENTER, TAB, or hit a submit button. Is this even possible if you need user input to be validated?? Any ideas or suggestions would be much appreciated!!

Hello,
A while ago I explained the work flow I’m using often in that case, only for the last field you need to have either a shortcut or a submit button AND the sequence has to be imposed. The idea is that you make the Submit button for the first field transparent, delete the ‘Submit’ text and put it over the second field. So if the user clicks on the second field, he also submits the value of the first field.
Here is the blog post I’m referring to:
http://lilybiri.posterous.com/one-submit-button-for-multiple-text-entry-box
Although it was written for previous versions, the idea will still be functional.

Magic wand, switch contiguous using keyboard Shortcut?

When using the magic wand tool, I would like to be able to switch between contiguous and non contiguous using a keyboard shortcut, is it possible to assign a shortcut?

It looks like if I did this I would have to have an F key to tuen it on and then another f key to turn it off.
Scripting is best I think as I would be able to assign any key as opposed to F keys
Thanks just posted on PS-scripts in the hope I get an answer too
