Change keyboard configuration for special keys

Hi guys,
I want to change the default behaviour for some special keys when running windows.
I want the Cmd (Mac) key to be the Alt (Win) key and the Fn (Mac) key to be the Ctrl (Win) key.
Is this possible?

Thanks for your answer Fortuny, but it seems the Ctrl and Alt keys can't be re-mapped using that application... I'll keep searching
Edit: You pointed me in the right direction I found a similar application to the MSKLC called SharpKeys, I was not able to edit the Fn key, but at least a could remap the left Cmd key to be the Alt key.

Change keyboard output for specific key

Hello,
I own an iMac with an Apple (USB) keyboard. I'd like to use the right-side numbered part of the keyboard as a calculator. However that's very inconvenient because I' European (Greek) and the dot (.) sign is used in Europe as a thousands separator. So when I need to type "33,01" I need to search the comma (,) and I lose plenty of time.
Is there any app or way to change this behavior? I'd like the right side dot (.) - +the one sitting between 0 and "return"+ - to act as comma.
Regards

I know this post is old...however...

R61i keyboard configuration for Brazilian Portuguese

Hi!
I bought a Thinkpad R61i (7650-A43) at Lenovo, Brazil one month ago.
I reinstalled the Windows Vista (from another DVD, not the rescue disk), then I tried to setup the keyboard in control panel to Portuguese (Brazilian ABNT), but the key ?/° (below :;+ key) didn´t work.
I tried Portuguese (Brasilian ABNT2) but it´s didn´t work, too.
What is the correct keyboard configuration for Brazilian Portuguese in this notebook?
thanks

Go to Solution.

Só faltou uma informação que pode confundir as pessoas, não crie uma chave. Crie um valor binário dentro de "Keyboard Layout".
Roteiro:
Botão direito do mouse em "Keyboard Layout"
Clique em NOVO > VALOR BINARIO > Coloque o nome do valor: Scancode Map > Depois clique para abrir o valor e insira o valor: 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 02 00 00 00 73 00 1d e0 00 00 00 00
Clique OK e depois feche o Regedit > Reinicie o computador.

How to change keyboard shortcut for cycle through open tabs in PS and AI CC 2014

I would love to set my own keyboard shortcuts for cycling through open tabs in PS and AI 2014 on OS X. I found out that this can be achieved with ctrl+tab in PS, but I couldn't manage to make any of the suggestions in the forum work for AI. As said, I would like to set a more "standard" shortcut like alt+cmd+arrow-keys for both of the apps. If that shouldn't be possible, does anyone know a shortcut in AI CC 2014?
Many thanks!
Amadeus

Thanks! The shortcut can be set like this in AI, although all key combinations I would want to use are not allowed. Too bad. But anyways, thank you very much for the tip!
cmd+~ is not an option for me, I guess, since the swiss/german keyboard layout has no dedicated tilde key.
So, I have a working shortcut in PS (ctrl+tab / of which I still don't know how to change, if possible at all) and thanks to you, I can now set one in AI as well. Unfortunately, I can not set it to be identical as in PS, since the "cmd" key needs to be included in AI's shortcut assignment dialogue, but I guess, this is as good as it gets.

Change keyboard shortcut for "Find"

The default keyboard shortcut for the "find" function is Cmd-Opt-F. As you know, for virtually every other Mac app (if not all Mac apps), the shortcut for "find" is simply Cmd-F. In iTunes, though, Cmd-F turns the visualiser full-screen mode on and off. I never use the visualiser, and decades of Mac use have hard-wired my fingers for Cmd-F to be "find." I know that there is a method in System Preferences by which to change or assign associations between drop-down menu items and keyboard shortcuts, but there is no menu item for "find" so that method seems like a dead end.
Is there a way to replace Cmd-Opt-F with Cmd-F in iTunes?
Help, please!!!

to be quite honest i dont no how exactly to do this,
i just know it can be done. i have had no problem
opening .plist files in vi-make sure you are in root
account for system files.
They (the .plist files) don't seem particularly readable in vi -- they seem to contain a lot of binary content. In earlier versions of OS X they were plain text and easily edited.....
Solaris huh? how powerful
is that? i dont know much about solaris . . . . like
to try it though. recommendations?
It's a more "traditional" Unix, meaning that it's very powerful, fairly bulletproof, very configurable, and pretty obtuse if you're not familiar with it. I like my Mac better!

Change Keyboard Shortcuts for sound volume

I want to change the keyboard shortcut for changing the system sound/audio volume. There isn't an option in the Keyboard Shortcuts system preference pane. Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks for helping me think through this. My (likely circa 2001) iKey keyboard didn't come with software (at least that I would still use). My initial guess was that I programmed the keys through FastScripts, but quitting that didn't help.
So, I looked back through the archives at MacOSXHints.com and found two options: I hadn't installed KeyRemap4Macbook, but I was still using ControllerMate. I had completely forgotten about that. Thanks for helping jog my memory.

Unable to change keyboard layout for all users on Windows Server 2012 R2

Hi,
I have a requirement where I need to support national keyboard layout for Danish for all users on that machine. When I ran the powershell with script Set-WinUserLanguageList
-LanguageList da-DK it only sets the Danish keyboard layout to the specific logged in user.However the for other users its same English(US) keyboard which is not expected.
Please help me how to set the Danish keyboard for all users on the machine. Its Urgent!Thanks

Hi Mike,
Thanks for reply.
But I need to configure everything using powershell script. Is it possible to use powershell script to setting group policy/ adding logon script ?
These are pretty basic administration tasks and almost always quicker to accomplish with the GUI. Why do you want to use a PowerShell script?

Flex 4 does not dispatch keyboard events for ENTER key.

Hello everyone. I think I have a strange problem with Flex 4 Beta (4.0.0.8909). My application has had event listener for keyUp event for a month now and suddenly (two days ago) I've noticed that keyUp event is not dispatched for ENTER (ALT also) key. Anyone know why? By the way, I've tried this with keyDown event, also 4.0.0.8847 version of SDK - still the same: no keyboard events for ENTER (and ALT) key.
Here is the sample application that has got this issue:
<s:Application
   xmlns:fx="http://ns.adobe.com/mxml/2009"
   xmlns:s="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/spark"
   xmlns:mx="library://ns.adobe.com/flex/halo"
   minWidth="640" minHeight="480"
   keyUp="application1_keyUpHandler (event)">
   <fx:Script>
      <![CDATA[
         import mx.controls.Alert;
         protected function application1_keyUpHandler (event: KeyboardEvent):void
            Alert.show ("Key up: " + event.keyCode);
      ]]>
   </fx:Script>
   <s:layout>
      <s:BasicLayout/>
   </s:layout>
   <s:TextArea verticalCenter="0" horizontalCenter="0" width="200"/>
</s:Application>
If you run this application and try typing anything in a TextArea you will get alerts with key codes. However, if you press ENTER (or ALT), you will get no alert.
I'm pretty sure the code above is right so that means there is a bug in latest nightly builds of SDK (i would swhitch to an older build if i knew which one does not have this bug).
Any ideas?

That's true, but in this case, I think the text editing code is eating ENTER key in order to prevent parents from seeing it and acting on it (like a submit button). We'll see if we can find a way around that.
You can get the ENTER key now by listening in capture phase.

The enter key isn't being disposed of by textedit, the attached example code works without error if you a- remove the alert box and b-set the focus to your text area on initialisation. I agree that pressing the enter key then calling a dialog box will result in the enter key being "gobbled up" as the enter key is overridden by the dialog box code.
I think the first suggestion should be to anyone don't use dialogboxes for testing code. If for some reason debugging isn't desirable instead of a trace statement a simple label can be used as a 'fake' trace.

Change account assignment for posting key-urgent

Dear expert,
please advice, when running mb30, in accounting doc for material xxx we want to change account for posting key 91 with other account since the old one is blocked.How to change this account assignment then?
Thank you

Hi
I am not sure whether MB30 Tcode exist. anyways, if you are sure of the Movement type with which your document is getting posted, then you can get the details of the Transaction in the OMWN. In OMWN please select the Movement type and you will see all the Tr Keys.
Or you can get into OMWB and select Simulation. Give the material, plant and movemnet type and then select the account assignments you will have all the information.

Change Management Configuration for SolMan 4.0 SP13

Hi SolMan Experts,
Recently, we have build SolMan4.0. As of now, we have configured this for System monitoring and EWA reports.
Now, we are planning to configure for Change Management.
Could you please provide me the useful documents for CHANGE MANAGEMENT configuration on SolMan4.0.
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Hari.

Hello
Follow the same steps which mentioned for SP12, as per my understanding there is not much difference in basic configuration of solution manager 4.0.
Create systems in SMSY, RFC connections, create logical system, create project, activate charm, these are the basic steps.
You will get information on this on saphelp and also go through the solman rkt (service.sap.com/rkt),
sap market place  sap support infrastructure  solution manager  media library (u will find all documents)
Even they gave given the charm configuration guide for SP12, u will find that in technical papers.
Hope this will help

Change keyboard shortcuts for zoom

Hi
When looking at the keyboard shortcuts for MAC, the 100% zoom is down as command alt '0', yet it is showing in the dropdown list as 'n'?
Is there a way of changing the shortcuts. Previously the 100% zoom was simply command (apple) '0', which is now fit to page.
Can anyone help with how to change the short cuts please?
Cheers
G

See http://forums.adobe.com/message/4947053?tstart=0
There was a change to a bizarre shortcut of Fn+n for 'View > 100%' (equivalent to the previous 'View > Actual Pixels' which had shortcut Cmd+1) when Retina compatibility was introduced a few months ago.
