Can I create a keyboard shortcut to go to start and/or end of work area?

Just as in the title....
Can I create a keyboard shortcut to take the CTI to the beginning or end of the work area in the Timeline panel?
Also, can I remap the keyboard shortcut (~) that maximises the current panel?
I can't find the answers to either of these questions in the help....

Can I create a keyboard shortcut to take the CTI to the beginning or end of the work area in the Timeline panel?
No.
Also, can I remap the keyboard shortcut (~) that maximises the current panel?
In CS5, it's under Application and called "Maximize or Restore Frame." In CS5.5 it's also under Application, but you have two choices: "Maximize or Restore Active Frame" and "Maximize or Restore Frame Under Cursor." The latter is how CS5 works; the former is a new addition, and will only maximize/restore whatever frame is currently outlined in yellow, e.g. active.

Is there (or can I create) a keyboard shortcut for the command "export"?

is there (or can I create) a keyboard shortcut for the command "export"?

Keyboard Shortcuts are created in the System Preferences app, Hardware section, Keyboard, Keyboard Shortcuts tab.
Select Application Shortcuts on the left.
Click the "+" sign on the right and in the dialog box that pops up, enter: "Export..." and your preferred key combination. Here's an example:
Keep in mind that when you enter the name of the action in a layered menu, such as File > Export..., or Share > Export..., you are only going to enter the last menu choice, not the higher levels.

How can I create a keyboard shortcut to export to pdf in Pages for Mac

Can anyone explain how to create a keyboard shortcut that works in pages?

Reluctant as I am to contradict Viking OS X, yes it is possible.
This is for Yosemite, it is slightly different in other versions of OS X.
Menu > Apple > System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > App Shortcuts > + > Applications > Pages > Menu Title: PDF… > Keyboard Shortcut > hold down whatever combination you want > Add
As Viking says this won't choose Good, Better, Best but at least it gets you to that point. Unfortunately it always defaults to Good.
NB that PDF… has to be typed with ALL CAPS and the ellipsis is option ; or copy from here. It has to be literally what is in the menu.
You could make a more intelligent keyboard shortcut with 3rd party Apps like Spark [free] or QuicKeys or iKey or Shortcuts for Mac or Keyboard Maestro.

Can you create a keyboard shortcut to insert a css comment (/* */)in DW?

hello DW knowers!
When writing code i like to use shortcuts for inserting commands.
For instance, to insert a html comment, i created a shortcut in the panel for creating shortcuts (you can do this finding in the shortcuts panel the 'insert' option and then find 'comment').
however, i did not find a way to create this for a css comment (/* */) and i find myself forced to use the coding toolbar to insert this.
I would really like to find a way to avoid this. Ofcoarse i can still type it in manually, or use the css rules panel to temporarely deactivate a rule, but selecting a piece of code and then typing a shortcut would be much easier.
Otherwise a great idea for the next upgrade of DW?
thanks for an answer, if there is a possibility

I use a Logitech G19 keyboard, which allows you to create one keypress shortcuts for virtually any keypress sequence. It has ten extra keys on the left side of the keyboard which you can program however you please (a total of 30 shortcuts). This particular keyboard is kind of expensive ($200) but there are other less expensive keyboards that offer similar capabilities. Think how many times a day you type <p> or how about <a href= . With a keyboard like this, you can do it in one keypress.

Can I create a keyboard shortcut for changing text colors in Mail?

When composing an email in Mail (v5.2), I often have the need to change the text of a few words to red to highlight them (e.g. names of people assigned to an action item) but want to do it via keyboard shortcut. I know I can do the following:
Press Command-Shift-C brings up to Colors panel
Choose the color (e.g. Red) with my mouse
Type the text
Choose the color (e.g. back to Black) with my mouse
Continue typing text
And that's if I want the color panel to stay visible (add at least 3 more steps all together if I close it in the interim).
I've tried using keyboard shortcuts to assign a color (couldn't find the right menu path) and Automator to create a script (the color panel always has to be in the right location which it may not be). None of those techniques work.
It's an annoyance more than anything else but I imagine it should be possible.
Thanks for any assistance!

Not only is this very possible, it's also very easy. You can do this not just for Quark but for any application in OS X. To accomplish what you want, do the following:
* Firstly, quit QuarkXPress completely. The rest of the steps won't work if it is still running.
* Go to the Apple menu and select System Preferences.
* Click the Keyboard & Mouse System Preference Pane
* Click Keyboard Shortcuts
* Click the + button to add a new shortcut.
* Select QuarkXPress as the application.
* In the Menu Title field type "Place Name" exactly like that but without the quotes.
* Click inside the Shortcut field and type the key combination you want to use for this shortcut. I suggest using Command + one of the F keys, like Command+F1.
* Click Add.
* Close System Preferences
* Run Quark, open a document, and try it out!

Can I create a keyboard shortcut for opening a document in a specific program?

Hi there,
I'm getting into html scripting and javascript programming. The files I'm working with are .html and .js. When you first click on these files they open in safari which I like, but I don't like having to right click and select "open in textmate" can I create a shortcut so I can just select the .html and .js files and hit a shortcut to pull up in an alternate program?

Can I create a keyboard shortcut for an AppleScript built into Quark6

I do a lot of photo scatters and sometimes have to use the "Picture box" "place name" script in Quark6. I wish I had a keyboard shortcut, because I use it as many as 80 times on a set of scatter images.
I am clueless about how do do this, is it possible?

How do I create a Keyboard Shortcut in Mail 3.1?

I use a CRM software call Daylite that has a plug-in (DMI) for Mail so they can transfer information between the two programs.
In order to connect to the program you must go to "File>Connect to Daylite" in Mail. The problem is there's no keyboard shortcut to make this connection.
Is there a way to create a keyboard shortcut in Mail to achieve this?
Any assistance would be great.

Hey, If this helps... <post edited by Host>
Go to System Preferences > Mouse & Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts
Scroll all the way down in the list - you should see some thing like "Application Keyboard Shortcuts" and a submenu of "All Applications"
Right beneath that, there is a plus button to add a keyboard shortcut, Click That Button
Select Mail from the application menu
Menu Title "Connect To Daylite" - make sure it's typed EXACTLY as it shows up in the menu, even punctuation...
Enter your shortcut and press the "add" button

I'd like to create a keyboard shortcut that involves 'two levels'- how to?

In Premiere Pro CC I'd like to be able to create a keyboard shortcut that allows me to add an edit with the razor tool wherever I am in the timeline, even if I am currently in the selection tool. Could someone walk me through how to do this? I use a Mac.
Thanks!

Also, if you prefer to work by mouse, select the Razor Tool and then hold Shift when clicking.
Note that you can protect clips from being cut by locking their tracks.

Can I create a keyboard command for the Ken Burns effect?

Friends,
I am creating a short video that consists of about 40 stills and a few video clips. For each of the stills I want to create a Ken Burns effect. I know that there is a keyboard command to open the crop tool. Can I create a keyboard command that opens the Ken Burns editor? I guess the broader question is whether I can create a macro that combines a keystroke and one or more mouse clicks?
Thanks!
Steve

The Keyboard-shortcuts-editor
⌥ - ⌘ - K
doesn't list the 'Ken Burns'-effect as 'shortcutable' …
And I doubt, that even Automator
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2488?viewlocale=en_US
would createany useful 'shortcuts':
Each picture is different - so, how should a 'standardised' KB work?
What does work indeed , is copy/paste of Attributes:
create your KB for clip#1
hit cmd-c
select clip#2 (or many) hit ⇧-⌘-V and select the 'crop' attributes ...

Is it possible to create a keyboard shortcut for "Export book to PDF"? (Cannot find it in the Keyboard Shortcuts window.)

I'd like to create a keyboard shortcut for the "Export Book to PDF" command on the Books panel menu, but I simply can't find that command in Keyboard Shortcuts. After not finding it in what seemed the logical place (Keyboard Shortcuts > Product Area: Panel Menus > Book), I've looked through all the Product Areas listed on the dropdown menu -- but it seems I must be missing something.
What do I need to do / where do I need to look to assign a keyboard shortcut for this command?

Sorry, I agree that that is missing in action. I don't know of a workaround unless someone has written a script. Scripts can be called with keystrokes.

Any way to create a keyboard shortcut for keywords in Bridge CC?

Just curious if there's any way to create a keyboard shortcut for "new keyword" and "new sub keyword" in Bridge CC?
If not, that would be a welcome addition in any future Bridge update - being able to customize keyboard shortcuts or add your own the way you can in Premiere Pro CC.

Steve,
Not, as far as I know, directly, but the problem is with Aperture, not Keyboard Maestro. Aperture has no command (afaik) for selecting the caption field of the Info Inspector. Without a command, you will have to find another way to access it, or another way to accomplish what you want.
You can specify the spot clicked by screen coordinates, so you cold use the Inspector HUD and the coordinates of the Caption field, as long as the Inspector HUD always pops up in the same location.
Many dialog boxes allow the user to advance through the fields with the Tab key. Unfortunately, the number of times you have to type "{Tab}" in order to get to a particular field depends on other interface elements (if the Control Bar is showing, add 2). I don't know of a way to determine if the Control Bar is showing.
You might find a work-around using a Metadata Preset and the Batch Change command. Keyboard Maestro can easily pop up a dialog with a text field in which you can type what you want to go into Aperture's Caption field.
The best thing to do is download the trial version and see if it meets your needs. Keyboard Maestro is adept at creating macros based on keyboard input. If the program does not provide keyboard equivalents, writing an effective macro becomes difficult.
http://www.keyboardmaestro.com/main/
The author provides exemplary documentation:
http://wiki.keyboardmaestro.com/About_Keyboard_Maestro
Lastly, for the use you cite, I simply show the Inspector if it's not showing (by typing "i"), change to the Info tab if it is not currently activated (by clicking, but note that opening the Inspector with the Info tab selected can be done with one command "View➞Inspector➞Info"), and then clicking in the Caption field, which is part of all of the Metadata Views I regularly use.
HTH. Perhaps one of our programming mavens will suggest something better.

How do I create a keyboard shortcut for a nested finder menu item?

Specifically I'm trying to create a keyboard shortcut for Finder>Services>Mail>Send File.
Any help would be appreciated.

pmasitti,
Under System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts, click on the "+" sign. From the drop-down menu choose Application: Finder, Menu Title: "Send File" (without the quotes), Keyboard Shortcut: whatever.
Close system System Preferences and quit the Finder for the change to take effect. You can easily quit and relaunch the Finder from the Apple Menu > Force Quit. Select Finder and click on the Relaunch button.
For the action to complete, select the Finder item before pressing your keyboard short cut.
Worked for me... good luck!

How do I prevent fullscreen to create its own space or how do I create a keyboard shortcut to such a fullscreen space

Hello,
In Mountain Lion, I could select from the dock icon the Options -> Assign To -> This Desktop to link back a fullscreen app to one desktop which allowed me to have a direct shortcut to my fullscreen app, e.g. ⌘3. In Mavericks this does not work and I cannot find how to disable the new space for fullscreen app nor how to create a keyboard shortcut for switch directly to that app once it's in fullscreen.
Any help would be much appreciated, I would hate to have to downgrade back to Mountain Lion.
Cheers,

The most typical solution for enterprise sites is to store their users credentials in an LDAP store such as Oracle Internet Directory (OID) or MS Active Directory. LDAP is an industry standard for extremely fast directory services over IP network infrastructure (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightweight_Directory_Access_Protocol).
In turn some sites store their user credentials in databases tables. Of course databases can be configured for fast lookups too, but it is a database centric solution where LDAP is designed to work across networks and is ideal for servers as a result which live and breath on the network.
In case of Java EE applications and especially those written in ADF, the use of these services isn't written into the application, but rather the application delegates this responsibility of configuring and providing these services back to the Java EE server. So for example Edwin's post is about configuring a WLS "security provider" to lookup user's info from the database, and here is another blog I wrote for MS Active Directory a while back (http://one-size-doesnt-fit-all.blogspot.com.au/2008/12/configuring-wls-with-ms-active.html). The main advantage here is you don't have every application baking its own solution, rather WLS provides a standard well tested way to configure the security lookups.
In terms of writing (i.e. creating users) to the security store over reading from it, indeed you need to build your own code. Ramandeep Singh Nanda has a nice post on doing this with OID through Oracle's OPSS: http://ramannanda.blogspot.com.au/2011/09/opss-adf-security-utility.html
Finally what sites like Amazon and Facebook do aren't necessarily good examples to follow as they're application's requirements are typically far in excess of a typical enterprise site, and in turn have often written bespoke solutions to deal with their scalability and distribution requirements. I dare say LDAP is a good choice for 99% of enterprises.
