Changing the safari keyboard shortcuts possible?

So I was wondering if anyone knew a way to change the shortcuts on the keyboard for Safari, specifically I would like to change the "Command-R" function which reloads the page to "F5". I have gone throught the whole keyboard shortcuts tab in system prefs (System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts) and added the safari menu command and my shortcut I wanted to add yada yada yada and nothing ever works no matter how many times I try or what I change. I am not sure whether or not the fact that I am the Apple Wireless keyboard has anything to do with this but I doubt it does. Any ideas?

Hi
I had to quit safari & reopen before it worked, but yes, it does work with F5.
Did you choose Safari from the applications list in sys prefs-keyboard & mouse-keyboard shortcuts?
then type Reload Page ( including the capital letters ) ? in the Menu Title box?
then leave keyboard prefs?
Let us know how you get on

Can I change the default keyboard shortcuts?

Hi,
I was wondering if it was possible to change some of the default keyboard shortcuts. Some of the actions I use quite frequently have 4-button shortcuts that require a lot more dexterity than I have and I was hoping I can change them to something simple, like 2-keys or 3 at the most. Is this doable?
Thanks

Many can be changed. System Preferences, Keyboard, Keyboard Shortcuts.

What is the safari keyboard shortcut for "show/hide address bar"?

I have been unable to identify the second of the two keys for the "show/hide address bar" shortcut in Safari.
It shows the command key and then a verticle line which I can not find on my keyboard. I tried i, l, and
1, but its none of those.
That would be a handy shortcut for me, but it seems to use a key I don't have!

It's ShiftCommand\ in U.S. and Canadian English. If you look at the backslash key in those layouts, there's a vertical bar above it.

Safari keyboard shortcut not working

Hi
Safari keyboard shortcut not working right.
I have 6 website in favourite bookmark. When press cmd + 1 should load 1st website in favourite folder. Nothing happen. Same cmd + 2, cmd + 3 etc.
Now cmd + 1 keep add ':)' smiley text emotion instead.
I have reset keyboard shortcut default in System Preference Keyboard but nothing change.

From your Safari menu bar click Safari > Preferences then select the Privacy tab.
Click: Remove All Website Data
Then delete the cache.
Open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy paste the following
~/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/Cache.db
Click Go then move the Cache.db file to the Trash.
Quit and relaunch Safari to test.

Change Stamp Visible keyboard shortcut?

I have looked through all the menu keyboard shortcuts and of course have found Merge Visible which doen't help me. I don't see anything in keyboard shortcuts that lets me change Shift+Ctrl+Alt+E to something different. Exactly what is that shortcut called in PS CS5, where do I find it?
Thanks,
Tim

Sure does seem to be missing from the obvious places, doesn't it? Probably because it's not actually in a menu anywhere.
Recording an action does yield a bit of a clue... It records as Merge Visible With Duplicate:
The Alt seems to add the "With Duplicate".
Just a guess, but based on the above, if you were to change the Merge Visible shortcut to something besides Control-Shift-E you might find that adding Alt to whatever you assign to that function would be a Stamp Visible operation. I didn't try that.
Or you could record an action as above and assign it a function key.

Change screen share keyboard shortcut

Hello,
I just got a new keyboard that connect to multiple computers. Very helpful...however the Command F2 button actually registers as Command F15.
Is there a way to change my share screen shortcut or change what my keyboard perceives is happening so I can use share screen from this keyboard?
Any help would be great!

How can I get the Voiceover Keyboard shortcuts to show up in a form in which I can copy

I have low vision & have been trying to learn to use Voiceover on both my iPhone & my Mac mini for months. Very frustrating.
1. How can I get the Voiceover keyboard shortcut commans to show up in a form in which I can copy & paste them into a pages document so I can print it out & use for quick reference?? The one that shows up when I press VO +HH won't let me copy & paste it, & it won't show up in the Help section no matter what subject I enter. The help topics shown do not correlate with the topics I'm entering. why is that??
2. Please make the cursor able to be wider, like in the software program Zoomtext, that I used when I had a PC. The razor-thin cursor (in this text box!) in Pages is impossible for me to see.
Thank you for any help you can provide.

You should be able to copy them from there.

Is there a way of listing all the current keyboard shortcuts?

Within a program is there a way of listing all the current keyboard shortcuts , in a sensible order?
I mean in shortcut order, giving the name of the menu option (or other function) alongside.
I often want this when I"m about to define my own keyboard shortcut, to see what's already taken.

Hope this helps.
Not sure it does help. In http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10837 it says
If you assign a keyboard shortcut that already exists for another command or another app, your new shortcut won’t work. Find the menu command that’s using it and reassign the keyboard shortcut for that item.
I looking for a quick way to "find the menu command" - or even better, to avoid choosing one that's already being used.

How do you change the track shipment shortcut in canada?

Anyone know how to change the track shipment shortcut from USPS to Canada Post? Love the feature, but useless to me if it cannot be changed. Any help would be great! Thanks!!

I hear ya! I was going to suggest that you send your feedback to the Apple Feedback link, but it was centered around Product feedback, and I couldn't find any other feedback link that was really realted to your issue....
So, I've put the Contact link here in case you want to contact them anyway. That way you can decide which would be the most effective route:
http://www.apple.com/contact/
Take it easy, and hope you can get through to someone to see if this couldn't be fixed....

Changing the application switcher shortcut

Hi,
Can anyone help me find where or how to change the application switcher shortcut (command-tab).
I'm using illustrator and I'm used to switching between my selection tools using command-tab. But now with OSX Leopard, every time I do that, it just switches applications.
I've tried mac help and also have searched these forums but haven't found a similar request.
Thanks.

I've been looking everywhere for a way to change this, or at least disable the shortcut. I have the same problem, but with QuarkXPress. I know that the command originates from the Dock, so I bet there's a way to hack the Dock so it disbles the shortcut...

Cost to change the whole keyboard Macbook Pro 13''??

Hey
i wish to know the estimate $$ for me to change the whole keyboard of my Macbook Pro 13'' Mid 2009

I did two, a 2010 15" and an early 2011 13". The keyboard replacement on these machines is easiest done via replacement of the "top case".
These cost me $79 and $69 off eBay.

Changing the macbook keyboard

Hi everybody hope someone'll be able to help me.
I'm thinking of buying my first macbook this summer in the US. But there is one big hurdle - The keyboard. I want it in danish with the special danish keys Æ,Ø & Å.
Whats the price for the keyboard?
Can i change the physical keyboard myself? if not what would it cost to have the apple store do it for me?
Have anybody experience with this i'd love if you could help me!
Joey

If getting a Danish keyboard is beyond what you want to pay, I recommend the overlays, stickers or just writing on the keys. I have been using Macs for Japanese since 1985. Some software I bought once came with some keyboard stickers and they worked really well. I know it's not the same as Danish, and now with modern input systems I don't bother, but I just thought I would add this info.

Acrobat 7.1.4 are actions or keyboard shortcuts possible?

Acrobat 7.0 (7.1.4) Standard.
Is it possible to change/assign keyboard shortcuts in Acrobat 7 (like one might in photoshop or illustrator)?
Or...
Is there any action/macro recording options?
I want to save myself a little effort. I typically add a coversheet to a proof then go to the security page and add a password.
What I'd like to be able to do is hit a key to insert the coversheet, then go to the Document Properity Security tab.

Nope.
