Thanks for any help.

Wow, it seems like such a no brainer to add this functionality to the program. What could apples thinking be ??

Problem with backlight on keyboard. Mountain Lion.

Hi 2all.
I have some problem. I have MacBook Pro (early 2011), i7. Some days ago I upgrade my MacBook OS to Mountain Lion (clean install). In Snow Leopard I can turn off the backlight of keyboard, and then it will be off. If I need it, I turn it on. But now I have another situation. I turn off my backlight, but after log off user, or restart MacBook backlight of keyboard turns on... Whats happen?!
Thx fo help.
Best regards,
Kyros.

Lab Tick is a shareware menu item that gives you complete control over the keyboard backlight. You can set the level of illumination by hand, and electively disable automatic adjustments made by the OS.

How to restore Macboo pro (Lion) defautl keyboard command settings?

Hi there,
I am not sure what happend, but all of the sudden my default keyboard commands are not following the "defaut settings" already in place on my mac...
Example, when I use the screen capture, (commnad+4) it kick me back to the previous page, and when i use the command+3, it kicks me forward.(to the page I was in the first palce.
I did check the settings such as untick the F1 thing, and I did select the options "restore default".. Could anyone help me please?
thank you

Just do as sig says - hold down the Command and R keys while booting. This will take you to the Lion recovery disk (a small partition on your hard drive). You can erase your disk from here using Disk Utlity and restore Lion by using Internet recovery. Make sure that you have a good Internet connection because Internet recovery can take quite awhile.

Can someone fix Firefox 10 so it doesn't undermine my Adobe Creative Suite 5.5 keyboard commands?

I notice this most frequently in Photoshop - the keyboard stops responding to keyboard commands (e.g. "m" to select marquee tool does not work, command-spacebar to select zoom tool does not work). All I have to do is to quit Firefox and they work again. So there is a conflict between the two. I would like to be able to to run Firefox in the background without having an issue. There is no way Adobe is going to fix it at their end, so I was hoping someone could address this. iMac 2.8Ghz Intel Core i5; 8 GB 1333 MHz DDR3; OS X 10.6.8

How to handle Keyboard command (CTRL+SHIFT+f3)

Hi Gurus,
I have handle this keyboard command(CTRLSHIFTf3) , when selection screen is displayed.'
when user pressed (CTRLSHIFTf3) then mode of the call transaction should change.
can it be handled in at user command event?
plz suggest the way it can be done.
Amresh.

Read the ABAP help about selection-screen and user-command.
Though why someone would specifically choose CTRLSHIFTF3 to be the key sequence, I've no idea. Is this a homework question?

System wide keyboard commands not responding

My mac stops responding to system wide keyboard commands such as the Dashboard, Expose and Spotlight shortcuts. It also does not respond to Command-Tab to switch between applications. Hitting the keys for any of these leads to no response whatsoever.
I have run into this problem several times over the last few months, and the only solution I have found is to restart the computer. Initially, it appeared to be related to the ScreenSaver process crashing. I could look in the System Monitor and see that this process had gone red, when I forced the process to quit, the keyboard commands were restored. More recently, though, this has not been the case, and I have had to restart.
Any guesses what could cause this or suggestions on how to diagnose it? Thanks for any help.

I'll answer in reverse.
When I've experienced the problem, I have tried other (older style) keyboards, and that did not resolve the problem.
I've never tried creating another user account.
I'll try disabling the screen saver, but part of the problem is that this issue is sufficiently intermittent that it take a while to determine if this has a benefit. I was hoping to find some more systematic way to diagnose what has been happening. Any suggestions along these lines?
Thanks for your help and interest.

Keyboard command-b works, return to plain text via command-t doesnt work

I am helping my Dad out here, we have figured out a couple of glitches he is having using the Word Processing thanks to Discussions.
The last thing we cannot figure out is that he has been used to typing keyboard command-b, then a string of bold words, then command-t to go back to regular text, but it is not returning to plain text anymore, it is printing super text. he has to change it 2x via the menu bar. Time consuming and annoying because command-t used to work.
Any advice on this one?
Thank you.

Is the behavior specific to one document or a few documents, or does it affect all word processing documents?
*+It is happening to two very long documents that i tried it on, but not to a couple of shorter ones he has.+*
Is the behavior specific to one account? Test by opening and working on an affected document using a different account. (You may need to Get Info on the file and change Ownership and Permissions to allow "Others" to "Read and Write", and you may need to create a second account on the machine.)
*+There is only one account being used.+*
What version of the Mac OS is your dad using?
+*Mac OSX 10.2.8 on an iMac PowerPC G4*+
What version of AppleWorks?
+*AppleWorks 6.2.7 (he is 87 and understandably doesn't want to upgrade unless absolutely necessary. He is working on something relatively important, and wants to finish it up. If it were me,...*+
Maybe a glimmer: What happens if you're typing plain text, press command-T (once), continue typing another word, press command-T again, and continue typing?
+*In one of the offending documents, I tried that, it went from plain text to SUPERIOR text, back to plain. It seems to be toggling between plain and SUPERIOR on some of the documents (the two longest, hundreds of pages documents.*+
**He is very happy this is getting worked out, at least things are better. I will be here tonight, then I go back home for several weeks at least, so will check back again later. If something comes up I can do it tonight, or maybe talk him through it next week. In any event, I will keep up with the post.**
**Thanks for all the time.**

Problem with Keyboard Commands in CS5

This is driving me up the wall and I seem to be the only one. Maybe somebody can help?
When I hit B for the brush tool or J for Spot Healing tool (doesn't matter what tool) it will
change to that tool for a couple seconds and then revert back to the tool I was using.
So, basically I can't change tools via keyboard commands.
I have to select the tool from the toolbar pallet.
And it's driving me nuts.
I have some custom keyboard commands (i.e, H for Healing brush and P for Patch tool)
and never had any problems.
I have reset all defaults. I have re-installed over the top. I have uninstalled and totally
started from scratch.
Things seemed to work OK after the fresh install. But once I added the Configurator panel,
the problem seemed to return. Only thing is, I've been using Configurator for a long time.
Obviously Conviguration version 2 not so long. But again, I used Configurator 2 wihout this
issue for some time.
I'm at a loss. Any ideas? Hopefully something simple I overlooking? But right now, working
in Photoshop is a real drag not being able to use keyboard commands.
Thanks,
Lance

OK well i guess i'm the only one experienceing this problem.
I should have added that there is also a delay when switching tools
while it desides to reject my request for a new tool and finally reverts back
to the previous one. but also a delay when i select the tool from the toolbar (via mouse).
CS5 as a whole seems to lag more on my system than CS4. Nik software plugins definetely
take longer to apply.
Lightroom 3 (while i'm at it) is also very slow when using the adjustment brush. brush away
and wait 2-4 seconds for anything to appear.
made sure my video card was up-to-date, but still no improvement in performance.

Keyboard commands not working with pen tablet attached to MacBook Pro

HELP!! I can't use the clone tool in Photoshop! None of my keyboard commands are working, zoom in, zoom out...etc.
I went through iCloud and reset Photoshop, InDesign and Illustrator keyboard, but my keyboard on my MacBook Pro

Is it my Bamboo pen tablet attached causing this problem?
Please advise.
Thanks.

Boot-up keyboard commands not working

Hello.
For some reason, when my iMac is booting up, the keyboard commands to affect boot-up (for example, holding Option to pick which drive to boot into) do not work. It wasn't too much of an issue before, since I could access my Boot Camp partition through the Startup Disk preferences pane. But that partition suddenly stopped showing up there, and with holding Option not working, my Boot Camp drive is essentially inaccessible to me. Does anyone know why these keyboard boot-up commands are not working, or any way to fix this? I'd greatly appreciate any help.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Please help!
I picked up a Mac Pro Dual Intel Quad-Core from a partners office. The system has four 750gb drives. It had Tiger on it.
Here are the steps I tried:
1. I got leopard and installed it. I installed on drive 1.
2. Software updates. Installed Flash runtime and Silverlight runtime.
3. Opened boot camp and split the boot drive equally for windows and mac os.
4. I then tried installing Vista Business and my monitor freaked out. I started having weird colors displaying after the boot up to the Windows Vista Disk. The Disk is from my MSDN subscription and I've installed with it before. The install failed after Windows install restarted the machine.
5. Reformatted all the drives and reinstalled Leopard with the OSX boot DVD. I skipped installing updates and just went straight to boot camp after a fresh Leopard install. Same problem on windows install.
6. I thought the drive might be messed up, so I wiped all the drives again and tried installing OSX on drive 4. BIG MISTAKE :-/
OSX worked but once I started installing windows Vista it crapped out again.
Now I can't boot to anything.
I tried manually putting each drive into bay 1 to boot. No dice.
None of the boot shortcut commands seem to work: Holding option does nothing at start up. Can't boot into single user mode. Holding c does nothing at start up. It's possible my keyboard is not working correctly because I have had problems with my USB keyboard in the past.
Any suggestions?? I'm going nuts here and I need this machine set up ASAP for a huge project.
Thanks in advance.

Keyboard commands don't seem to work correctly.

I tried using the keyboard commands for zooming and I get the preferences menu when I type command-<
And nothing happens when I type command->
Any ideas?
Is there any way to put the add and delete commands for tables in the floating palette?
I'm trying to replace Word, and Pages is working fairlyl well but I need help with this.
Thanks.

The keyboard command for Zoom In and Zoom Out works as you would expect. To help you understand why they aren't working, try the following.
Without pressing any other key, press the "<"," in your text field? The reason you get the preferences menu when adding the Command key to this is because "Command ," is the keyboard command for the preferences in Pages, and Safari etc.
In order to Zoom In or Out you just add the Shift key modifier, just as you would to type a "<" or ">" character.
I will admit that this isn't intuitive on Apple's part. Since most shortcut keys, or hotkeys, just use letters, the menu will use the "arrow pointing up" symbol to identify when you need to use the Shift modifier. In the case of the ",<" key, it is dual purpose. Apple assumes that you will know to add Shift to get the "<" character.
Hopefully that clears this up for anyone else interested.

How can I get the keyboard commands to do what they are spozed to do?

Some keyboard commands work OK. But some do unexpected things. For example, when I press the F11 key in InDesign, the page parts like a curtain opening leaving the empty desktop; the same key toggles the page back again. What the F11 key should do is open the Paragraph Style palette. Strangely, the "single-digit" commands -- F5, F6, etc. work OK. But those with 2 digits -- F11, F12 -- do not. (This is a G5 iMac with the original keyboard.) How can I fix this?

That's Apple's Exposé at work. To change the keys for that, go into System Preferences, then Dashbord & Exposé (top row, second in). You can change the keys, disable it, or assign corners of the screen to do it.
Conversely, you could go into InDesign -> Edit -> Keyboard Shortcuts and change the Paragraph style pallete (gotta dig for that) command to Command f-keys.
I'd actually do the second one, as easy access to Exposé just rules - once you get used to it, it will be second nature. It's especially helpful when you have a pile of Photoshop and InDesign windows open, and need to find one particular one, or need to see something on the desktop.

What are the keyboard commands to apply outline elements

I'm unable to bring up a list of keyboard commands that can be used to apply outline elements such as Scene Heading, Action, Character, etc.
Is there a quick reference list available, somewhere?
Thanks

Have the keyboard commands changed?

Many OSs ago, my most used keyboard shortcut Option, Shift W to close all open windows just disappeared. Now I find lesser used ones have gone too: Cmd, Opt Shift Eject (shut down) and Cmd Ctrl Eject (restart) no longer work. When I look at "keyboard shortcuts" in Sys Preferences, I see most of the shortcuts that used to be there have gone. About the only thing that still works and hasn't changed are screen shot commands. So what has happened? Are keyboard commands now out?

Robert,
I don't know if this will help you, but if you look to the menubar in each app it will show you the majority of keyboard shortcuts you can use in that app. Also it will change dynamically and show you the new keyboard combinations and their commands when you press and hold down a modifier key on your keyboard. Such as Shift or Command.
Robert Bannister Said:
my most used keyboard shortcut Option, Shift W to close all open windows
To Close all Windows you use the keyboard combination: ( Option ) ( Command ) ( W )
Robert Bannister Said:
Cmd, Opt Shift Eject (shut down) and Cmd Ctrl Eject (restart) no longer work
My Macbook doesn't have an eject button so I can't test those keyboard shortcuts.
Robert Bannister Said:
The only function key that does anything on my Mac is F5 which seem to have replaced a mouse movement for accessing the rarely used widgets.
I would double check in System Preferences that you have your function keys configured how you would like. I don't like to have to hold down the ( fn ) key so I have mine unchecked.
System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard ( Tab ) >
Robert Bannister Said:
I'm sure we've all had to reset the PRAM at some stage - now I can't even remember the four-key combination we used
The Keyboard Shortcut to Reset the PRAM are: ( Option ) ( Command ) ( P ) ( R )
more on that here: OS X Mavericks: Reset your computer’s PRAM
Robert Bannister Said:
I have the same problem with opening a folder in a new window - sometimes the Cmd Opt O thing works, but mostly it doesn't.
To Open a Folder in a New Window you use ( Control ) ( Command ) ( O )
Hope that helps,
Weston
