Can I use the Hot keys in my app?

I want to trigger a action when home button is pressed continously or four times? Or can I use volume buttons or power button to trigger a action? when the application in the foreground.Is it possible...If so can you help me with some sample source code?
Looking for reply...

Only if there is an app for what you want. Have you checked the App Store for such an app?

Tecra R850 with Windows WXP - can't use the FN key

Hi

Help

Hi
The FN buttons are controlled by Common Modules running Win XP.
Did you install the Common Modules?
If not you should do thatyou can find the right Common Modules here

When in email I can not use the delete key to erase a word

When in email I can not use the delete key to erase a word.

Yes, it does. It is only in my email through Charter that it does not work. I restored all keyboard shortcuts to the default, but that did not fix the problem. I have a MacBook Air.
I called Charter also, who said it was a Mac problem.
Thank you.

Can I use the CD key more than once?

I bought Lightroom as a Christmas present for my husband this year, but his laptop was stolen recently. It will be a few months before we can afford getting him a new one, and I want him to still be able to use Lightroom until then, so I was considering installing it on my computer, if it will do so (my computer is getting a bit old). But I don't want to do that unless he'll still be able to use the CD key to install it on a new laptop once we get him one. I've never had to worry about installing software on more than one computer, so I'm not completely sure of myself here. Any advice?

LR’s license, like most Adobe products’ licenses, is for one person on two different computers, with a desktop and a laptop or a work computer and a home computer being the typical examples, as long as only one of those computers is used at a time.

How can I use the enter key instead of tab to change field focus?

I am using Acrobat 9 Pro.
We have a fillable PDF where the users enter numbers into fields. They want to be able to use the <enter> key on the 10-key pad instead of the <tab> key on the keyboard to move the focus to the next data entry field.
How can I set my PDF so that it recognizes the <enter> key instead of the <tab> key for changing focus?
Thanks!

You can use a custom Keystroke script, something like:
// Custom Keystroke script for text field
if (event.willCommit && event.commitKey === 2) {
getField("Text2").setFocus();
Where "Text2" is the name of the next field. This doesn't disable the Tab key though. For more information, see: http://livedocs.adobe.com/acrobat_sdk/9.1/Acrobat9_1_HTMLHelp/JS_API_AcroJS.88.608.html

I can not use the tab key to move to the next field or use the shift and tab to move to the prior field in forms.

After updating to 7.0.1 I can not always use the tab key to move to the next field or use the shift and tab to move to the prior field in forms. This always worked in previous versions and it's much needed for my type of work. Does anyone know of a setting to activate this? If not can the Firefox developers work on this issue (please). I love Firefox but desperately need this feature to work correctly. Thanks!

I tried in safe mode and the tab key worked just fine. I'm not sure about all web forms I've only recently updated to 7.0. The wen form I was using was for appraisal purposes and it has multiple data fields to fill in and also drop down menus to select from. Might I always have to use Firefox in safe mode to be able to utilize the tab between field feature? Thanks for your help!

How come I can't use the back gesture in certain apps with my magic mouse on certain applications in Lion OS?

How come I can't use the back gesture with my magic mouse on certain applications in Lion? I figured out that in Safari i have to use a 1 finger swipe to go back a page instead of 2 fingers like i used to do in Snow Leopard. But apps like iTunes and iPhoto and i can't do that. Any ideas? is there a setting im missing to make this work? It works in Safari but not any other applications, so im assuming theres no setting for this. Just want to know if this is just a bug that will be fixed in the next update or if its something I can fix now. Any help would be appreciated because its kind of annoying. Other than this minor issue I love Lion. Full screen apps are unbelievable.

Boot camp and windows XP..can't use the "option" key to dual boot

Hi All
I'm a Mac newbie, but I know LOTS about windows XP. I set up windows XP to run on my brand new (5 days old) macbook. I can use bootcamp to boot from OS/X to windows XP, and everything works well o both systems (I also loaded fusion, didn't like it cause I had to keep activating Microsoft Office 2007 everytime I switched from the VM to the bootcamp method of accessing XP).
My question..when I hold down the option key when I turn on the computer, only the Mac hard drive appears, not the windows...so, I boot into OS/X and then switch to windows from there. Any ideas why the option key only gives me the Mac HD option?
Thanks

In terms of AV, I'm running Mcafee AV and firewall, if that's any help knowing..I don't know if the AV changes any boot record, etc. Also, interesting when I go to the boot camp control panel when I am in windows, both "hard drives, Mac and windows" show up as folders. When I go to the control panel in the Mac OS, the Mac HD shows up as a hard drive, and the windows shows up as a folder. So...who knows!
As for using Vista vs. windows, well, I haven't worked much with Vista, but, since many of us that need windows use programs that may not reliably work with Vista, I have stuck with XP.
As for the use of Fusion, my point was this. I put the trial copy on and then loaded office 2007...each time I started the windows boot camp partition, or the fusion VM, I had to reactive Office 2007...this is a known problem in fusion VMware per their discussion board on the site. If you load fusion AND the fusion tools before activating Windows XP, then you only have to activate windows twice, once in bootcamp and once in fusion, but you have to look for the fusion tools and load them, they don't load by default.
Thanks for the OS dual boot software suggestion, I'll check it out...this is not a huge problem, but, when the Apple engineers respond to my question as "hmmm...we don't know"...I'm a bit concerned. So, as an old time windows user who just switched to Mac, my initial take it...both systems have their problems, just a different set of problems...but, so far I love my Macbook.

How can I use the function keys in a GUI with swing?

I'm wondering how do you declare you want an action to happen when a user uses a function key or any key for that matter. How can you specify something frame wide or for that matter for a specific jtextbox?

you need to use an accelerator
setAccelerator(javax.swing.KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(java.awt.event.KeyEvent.VK_A, java.awt.event.InputEvent.SHIFT_MASK | java.awt.event.InputEvent.CTRL_MASK)

I can only use the internet (and web-related apps) when I'm connected to wifi.

When I try to use the 3G, it says I'm not subscribed to a cellular data plan, which is clearly not true because I'm paying ridiculous amounts of money for it. This means I cannot use the maps feature, which is half the reason I bought the thing. There have also been synching issues with email (which cost me a really good job), and it will not allow me to set up voicemail (when I try to, it says "cannot connect"). My friend that works at Sprint says that the problem is with the phone, and there is nothing they can do at the Sprint store. Help?

Reset your network settings.

How do I delete Windows 7 from Paralells so that I can use the Product Key on a different computer?

I bought Windows 7 to install on my Mac via Paralells. When I wasn't home, my brother took it and installed it on his computer. Now, I was able to install Windows 7 on my computer but I cannot activate it, since I can only use the Product Key for one computer. How can I get the Product Key deactivated so that I can use it on my computer?

Using the control key to scale to a certain size proportionally without it being locked

In illustrator CS5 if there is a particular size you want to enter, after entering the size in the width you could hold down the control key and it would scale everything proportionally without the lock button being on. I cant seem to get CS6 to do this feature. Is there a way to get this feature back?

Update to Illustrator to get to 16.05. I assume you are on PC since you said CTRL and not Command.
Adobe - Illustrator : For Windows
I leave the transform palette with the lock off
So that I can use the hot key as you mentioned and that would scale proportionately as if the hot key was held down
Uninstall any 3rd party Illustrator or Windows plug ins that may be interfering with this.
Also wanted to make sure you are holding down the CTRL key while you hit enter to accept the value.
Select item(s)
change either width or height
hold down CTRL on windows
Hit return or enter
Release CTRL
