Bug? Keyboard shortcuts not always working in ios 5...

So while making a number of shortcuts i wanted to use the IRC shorthand of "/me" for text replacement. This however doesn't seem to work. No text replacement occurs. Is this a bug or is it only meant to work with letters?

I have the same problem since I changed my Apple ID password a couple of days ago. I had to relogin in many apps and settings. Also photostream went crazy then, redownloading & uploading all photos.
It happens when I go to Spotlight and back home without using Spotlight, but also when I use Spotlight open a result and later go back to home screen, the keyboard will still be there waiting for me. It stays there while swiping to other screens. To resolve I tap power button (screen black) and home+slide to unlock and the keyboard is gone. Until I go Spotlight again.
My specs:
iPhone 4S 32GB
iOS 5.1
Freespace 6GB
Multitask bar is always nearly empty, I like to keep things tidy and fast.
No jailbreak
Settings:
iCloud on
Siri off
Auto lock off
Keyboard Dutch (Nederlands), no extra/emoji keyboards

Page back keyboard and mouse shortcut not always working

On some pages the "go back and forward one page" functions of my mouse do not work.
Also the keyboard shortcuts ALT+left arrow and ALT+ right arrow give the same issue.
The buttons on the toolbar are functioning like they should however.
The alternative keyboard shortcuts backspace and SHIFt+backspace also work.
(but not when using google because google thinks I want to type so this is no workaround for my programmable mouse)
I tried on another computer and on that the keyboard shortcuts also dont always work.
(but mouse does, it's a cheapy mouse without software, go figure)
I can reproduce the page on which the shortcuts do not work.
Just go to google or any other website and then go to:

Keyboard shortcuts doesn't work with iOS 6.1.3

Since I've upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS 6.1.3, my keybord's shortcuts doesn't work.
Can you help me?Key

HI boombadabum,
I understand that you are having issues with keyboard shortcuts with a custom keyboard layout.
I also understand that when you press the shortcuts that the menu blinks like it is working, but nothing actually happens.
As a work around, you may be able to map them out with this add on[https://addons.mozilla.org/en-us/firefox/addon/customizable-shortcuts/]

BUG: KEYBOARD SHORTCUT KEYS DO NOT ALWAYS ACTIVATE A SERVICE (A WORKFLOW)

BUG: KEYBOARD SHORTCUT KEYS DO NOT ALWAYS ACTIVATE A SERVICE (A WORKFLOW)
When you assign a keyboard shortcut to a Service (such as a Service Workflow created in Automator) using the System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts, if that shortcut key combination includes the Command key, pressing that shortcut will always successfully activate the Service. No problem there.
However, shortcut key combinations that do not include the Command key (for example, the shortcut key combo Ctrl-Shift-D) WILL NOT activate the Service in any newly opened application, until you click on the Services Menu option in that application.
As soon as you click on the application's Services Menu, this seems to bind the shortcut key combo to the Service, and thereafter, that keyboard shortcut will activate the Service in that particular app. But if you then quit and reopen the app, you'll find the Service will once again lose its binding to the shortcut key combination and will thus fail to work again.
This means that shortcut key combinations such as Ctrl-D, Ctrl-Shift-D, F15, Alt-F15, etc are not really viable shortcuts for Services, because they will not work in any newly-opened application until you click on the Services Menu in that application.
This bug thus greatly limits the shortcuts that you can employ for Services, because you can only reliably use shortcut key combos that contain the Command key. This is a fault that Apple really needs to fix. This is a very old glitch: I notice it is present in Snow Leopard 10.6.8, as well as Yosemite 10.10.1.
This bug does not apply to application shortcuts, however, or to other shortcuts in the Shortcuts Preference Pane, just to Services shortcuts (including the Mac's default Services, or any Services you make yourself using Workflows on the Automator software).
To give some examples:
The following keyboard shortcuts for Services WILL NOT work until you click on the Services Menu in the application you are using (and they will cease working again when you quit and reopen the app):
Ctrl-X
Ctrl-Shift-X
Ctrl-Alt-X
Ctrl-Alt-Shift-X
Alt-X
Alt-Shift-X
F1, F2, F3, etc
So until Apple fixes this bug, the above type of key combinations, that do not contain the Command key, are best avoided as shortcuts for Services. It is particularly unfortunate that function keys F1 to F19 do not work reliably, as these would make great single-key shortcuts to Services.
However, the following sort of keyboard shortcuts for Services, all containing the Command key, once set up will always work without fail:
Command-Alt-X
Command-Ctrl-X
Command-Shift-X
Command-Ctrl-Shift-X
Command-Alt-Ctrl-Shift-X
Command-F1, Command-F2, Command-F3, etc
So all the above can be reliably used as shortcuts to Services.
Here X denotes keyboard keys such as A, B, C, 1, 2, 3, =, \, [, etc.
Note that even for keyboard shortcuts containing the Command key, you may very occasionally need to click the Services Menu to get them to work initially in an application (notably in the System Preferences application itself). But if this is necessary, it is just required once when they are first set up, and thereafter the shortcuts containing the Command key will always work without fail.
The above was tested on Yosemite 10.10.1, but most likely applies to other versions of OS X as well, as I believe this bug is an old one. This bug is definitely present in Snow Leopard 10.6.8, because I have observed this same fault in an old Mac I have that runs Snow Leopard.
I have reported this bug to Apple, so hopefully they will see my report and act upon it. However, it might be an idea if others also report this problem of Services shortcuts not working property, to ensure that Apple get the message. You can report a bug to Apple via their bug feedback page here.

Exactly where do you want to use a GO BACK "shortcut" in Bridge? Maybe I don't even understand what you mean by Go Back. Bridge is only a file browser, nothing more. It doesn't open, edit, manipulate or save files at all.
Are you simply referring to going back to view a folder that you viewed before?
Please don't take this a criticism. As someone who will gladly pay money not to have to learn any shortcuts at all, I'm just puzzled and curious, that's all.

Keyboard shortcuts no longer work iOS 8.3. Triple tap Home button on Bluetooth keyboard no longer works either. Help!

Since updating my iPad Third Generation ("New iPad") to iOS 8.3, Keyboard Shortcuts no longer work. Also on my Logitech EasySwitch Bluetooth Keyboard, triple tapping the home button on it no longer works to trigger Accessibility, even though that is still set up for triple tap in Settings and continues to work on the iPad itself. How can I get these functions back? Wah!

Keyboard shortcuts not working in Illustrator CC for Mac

I'm having a lot of problems using keyboard shortcuts in Illustrator CC for Mac. They'll will work intermittently. No keyboard issues anywhere else. Is this a bug, or something I can remedy on my end?

I am having the exact same problem and it is really infuriating at times... I just switched from CS6 where I encountered no such problems.
It seems that it usually happens when I switch to Finder or another application and back (altough it may only be Finder). The Illustrator window is still active because I can see Illustrator reacting when I press only CMD or ALT. However all keyboard shortcuts just stop working, for instance CMD+S, or V or any other toolbar shortcuts. To fix it I have to do a mouse click on a tool or menu command or something, and the shortcuts are back for a while...
I am also running Illustrator v.17.0.0 and OS X 10.8.4 on a macbook Pro connected to a Thunderbolt Display and bluetooth mouse/keyboard.
I sure hope this is picked up by Adobe soon, it is really messing with my workflow!

PS5 Action Keyboard Shortcuts Not Working

PS5 Action Keyboard Shortcuts Not Working -- Running 10.6.7 on a Mac Pro. Any suggestions?
I've tried restarting, changing key combinations, etc. Nothing works and I'm wasting time using my mouse...
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I had this problem too but using Windows 7. I tried resetting, renaming the shortcuts, swearing loudly, none of it worked. I found out it was a totally unrelated program, Xfinity Protection Suite, that was the culprit. My virus protection program added it as an 'upgrade.' AFter I uninstalled it everything was back to normal. Have you installed anything new onto your computer lately that could be interfering?

KDE - Global keyboard shortcuts not working

My global keyboard shortcuts have stopped working in KDE. When I try to open "Shortcuts and Gestures" in the System Settings, it freezes, and eventually needs to be terminated. Any ideas what could be causing this? I don't see any related recent updates in my pacman.log. I'm not even sure how to go about troubleshooting this.
Thanks

Hi there,
First, sorry to re-up that post after such a long time.
So, for some reasons, I had the same shortcuts problem since I installed Archlinux on my computer (more than ten months ago).
Shortcuts work when I start my computer up, but after a while (and for no reasons), it just stops working.
That problem is very annoying as I have to do everything using the mouse (and for someone like me who is used to shortcuts, it's very hard..... and long).
And, today, I finally managed to get shortcuts working.
And, the problem seems to come from the Dual Screen with my Nvidia graphic card.
I don't know why, but if I unplug my TV (HDMI connexion), shortcuts just work perfectly. If I plug my TV and set X for DualView, then after a while shortcuts don't work (or very badly).
I have no idea why... also, don't know if the issue is from KDE or Nvidia (I would say KDE as sometimes, when pressing Alt+Tab, the focus goes on the desktop of the TV, and then shortcuts don't work).
Anyhow, hope this will help people having the same issue.
And, of course, if you have any idea on how to fix that problem I would be very grateful (because, I really like having my TV as a second screen).

I'm running V10.6.8 and the system is not recognizing a San Disc adapter that I plug into the side of the keyboard. This always worked in the past. Whats changed?

I'm running V10.6.8 and the system is not recognizing the presence of a San Disc (SDHC) adapter that I plug into the left side of the keyboard. This always worked in the past. Whats changed? I can't upload my images to a folder.

Another item I'd found when getting an SD card for an older camera was the lack of backward support from the SD card if it was too new, while a newer camera can sometimes use an older SD card at a slower read-write speed. There are limits and ceilings on what kind of card works with old/new stuff.
So I ended up taking a nice SD card back to one store and had to settle on a 'walmart kinda dubious kingston two pack a cure' for the older Panasonic Lumix. Smaller capacity but seems to work OK for the era. I don't trust kingston with macs, but this 10 y/o Lumix seems to not care about that.
Hopefully you can obtain the correct cards, because some stores only sell parts for their inventory of cameras. And some adapters are limited too.
Depending on what I'm doing with the card and the camera it goes with, I attach the camera to the computer and not just the card in a reader. That way I can file items inside the camera SD card in a way the camera won't overwrite them. Later when I save everything from the card into an external hard disk drive, all my filed folders of images by date (I created in the SD) appear in order, in the later archive. Easier too, when I burn to DVD or CD media, to create yet another archive away from the computer or the camera.
Good luck & happy computing!

Keyboard shortcut not working - nonbreaking hyphen - help

Does anyone know how to fix this problem?
I can't get the keyboard shortcut for nonbreaking hyphen to work. I can get the nonbreaking hyphen to insert if I insert it via the type menu but menus are such time wasters. I have even tried to make a new and different keyboard shortcut for nonbreaking hyphen and it will still not work. Any ideas of what needs to be corrected/purged/smashed with a hammer to get this to work?
Thanks in advance for any help
Running InDesign CS3 5.0.2 on a PowerMac 2x2.66Ghz dual Core Intel Xenon, OS X 10.5.2, 2gigs ram 667 Mhz, and it sits on a crumby looking desk but I don't think the desk is the problem. ;)

Sigh. I figured out the problem. But thank you M Blackburn. Your response got me thinking about other shortcuts. Sure enough it was Universal Access that was causing the conflict. I must have hit command-option-8 at some point to turn on Zoom in Universal Access which then uses command-option-dash for the zoom out feature. Since I am already zoomed out nothing happened when I tried that key combination. Once I turned off that Zoom feature my keyboard shortcut in InDesign worked again.
Phew.
Thank you

Safari 5.1 customized keyboard shortcut not working

Keyboard Shortcut not working

I turn on my iBook one day and the Command/Apple + T keyboard shortcut doesn't work. The t button works fine, but in every application, this shortcut is broken. All of the other shortcuts work, but in Photoshop, iMovie, and multiple web browsers, this one deosn't work. What is going on and how do I fix it?

Hi,
Comand T in...
iMovie --> Split Clip at Playhead
Adobe --> Free Transform (Command/Ctrl-T) a selection from its center by pressing Option/Alt while dragging a Transform box handle.
I don't know multiple web browsers. You may want to go to System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts > Restore to Default. See if that helps.

Hi,
The Document does indeed say that.
However if your AIM Login with such an Apple ID is still using NON SSL and the older login.oscar.aol.com you will need to change.
Try Unticking the "enable this Account" box first so that you are fully logged out.
Then in the server Settings tab tick the SSL box, change the Server to api.oscar.aol.com and the port to 443
