Command+Delete Shortcut!

Hello,
I have noticed that the command+delete shortcut does not work on Mac OS Server, is this a normal behavior or is it just my system. Is there a way to set it up?
Appreciate any help on this matter.

Camelot:
Thank you for your response!
I do not have thirdparty software, I am aware of, that is over-riding short-cut commands in the system. Regarding the system preferences, are you refering to "Keyboard Shortcuts?"
As far as I know, the "Keyboard Shortcut" pereferences does not have an option for Move to Trash to tamper with? However, under the File menu, in Finder, I see that the move to Trash action has the correct shortcut, command+delete. Unless I am missing something here, I am not sure where else to look for such preferences. This is really annoying!
I hope there is away to reset it!!!!

  • Command   Delete shortcut not working

    When I try to send files to the trash from Finder, the Command & Delete button combo that usually work, refuse to work now. Does anyone have any idea on how to get this working again? If i click on the file, i can manually move it to the trash. Just a pain because I need to delete files rather frequently. Thanks!

    Was having the same problem and this fixed it.
    Go to System Preferences>Keyboard and Mouse>Keyboard Shortcuts and click the "Restore Defaults" button. Worked for me!
    Best,

  • How can I change the key to delete a message from the delete key to command-delete like it is in the finder?

    These new forums confuse me... Sorry.
    I often think I am typing in another window but I'm actually typing while Mail.app is selected.  When I discover this, I often (without really thinking) start whacking the delete key.  When I whack the delete key, of course, a message is moved to the trash.  So, without really thinking about it, I delete three to six messages.  Go ahead -- call me stupid.  But...
    If delete is not used to delete files in the Finder, then why is it used to delete files in Mail?
    One group suggested making customer keyboard macros.  Sounded like a plausible solution.  I could make a customer keyboard macro so that delete did nothing (or something benign) and make command-delete delete the message.  Alas, using the Apple => System Preferences => Keyboard => Keyboard Shortcuts => Application Shortcuts gave me no Joy because it won't let me do either of those.  When I try to enter either delete or command-delete into the "Keyboard Shortcut" box, it just beeps at me.
    Does anyone here have a suggestion?
    Thank you,

    p.s.   I can get the deleted messages back using Undo (repeatedly) but I think that is new with Lion.  So life isn't tragic but it still is an interface that I'd like to change if I could.

    You can define your own custom keystrokes in System Preferences -> Keyboard.  I'm not 100% sure that this blocks the old keystroke, though, and am posting from my iPad and can't check that at the moment.

  • "Command I" shortcut in Preview - designated for show/hide toolbar AND show inspector?

    In the Mac Preview App, I tried using the the 'command I' shortcut to show/ hide the toolbar, but it brings up the inspector instead. Is the shortcut is designated for both these functions?

    Actually the Toolbar hide/show isn't "cmd i" it's "cmd shift |"
    That little key on the far right edge between the "delete" and "return" keys. The same key that has "\" as the main function.

  • Command +1 shortcut was set to "select red channnel" in the latest Photoshop CC 2014 by default.

    I updated photoshop to the newest CC 2014 and then shortcut, command+1 became "select red channel" which was zoom to 100% in the CC. It seems like command +1 shortcut is unchangable... is there any solution to put it back to zoom to 100%??

    I would wonder about your keyboard settings, (it's not bluetooth, is it) but it was working normally before. My default setting is US
    Well, I can suggest resetting Preferences  Hold down cmd-opt-shift while starting PS and answer yes to deleting the prefs.
    I hope that clears it.
    If not a reinstall is in order.
    I'm running CC 2014 on a mid-2009 Macbook on Yosemite and I don't see this problem.

  • Command + delete not working in Preview

    I use the Command + Delete keyboard shortcut all the time on my MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion to quickly delete multiple images in preview. The shortcut seems to be disabled on my iMac running SL, however. To the best of my knowledge it used to work before. How do I fix this?

    ⌫ is the symbol for the erase to the left (normal delete) key
    ⌦ is the symbol for the erase to the right (sometimes, also labeled delete) key

  • Command + T shortcut doesn't work on Mac

    Using Firefox 5.0 on Mac OS X 10.6.8. The Command + T shortcut for opening a new tab doesn't work. I didn't try all the keyboard shortcuts, but among those ones I frequently use this is the only shortcut that doesn't work.

    Hi everyone,
    Thanks for your replies. However I think each of them misses the point. I realize that I should have given ( even ) more information, so sorry about that. I will try and do that here.
    It's about a link to a website like www.website.com ( is a fake name for example purposes!! ). It has worked on both my PC and laptop!! Somewhere along the way ( cannot quite remember when ) there was an update of some kind on my laptop, that apparantly hasn't occured on my PC ( yet ), that has caused the link to 'break'. Therefore I suspect it's a setting matter of some kind, but cannot figure out which one and where to (re)set. Also because the problem stays when I try to delete and recreate the link, also by dragging it from the website to the desktop.
    Hope this addition give you sufficient information. If not, don't hesitate to ask further questions.
    Thanks in advance.

  • What is the difference between 'command delete' and using 'delete original and all versions'?

    My masters are not referenced and I usually have only one version.  What is the difference between using 'command delete' versus going to the top menu bar and using 'dele

    Good question  .
    When the Version is the only Version based on the Original of that Version, the two commands have the same effect.

  • ITunes 10.0.1 no longer has Command-R shortcut to open root file of a song!

    I can not believe that iTunes 10.0.1 no longer has the Command-R shortcut to open root file of a song! I use this function constantly as I am a television music supervisor who frequently emails or FTP sends music cues from composers and artists of mine to my tv shows. I use this to function to bring music cues into Toast, to see how I have files titled, etc. If anyone at Apple can log this as a potential fix for a future update, there is important functionality in this for some of us! Thank you.

    Yes, much thanks dknightd! I too use it all the time & I thought they just got rid of it; they probably changed it to make room for a new shortcut... odd that they just changed it all the sudden like that, without replacing it with something more often used. I guess we'll just have to wait & see! Anyway, thanks for the post about the new shortcut!

  • Command key shortcuts don't work anymore in Safari since upgrade to Yosemite!

    Hi,
    I recently upgraded the MacOSX to Yosemite. Since this moment Safari doesn't work properly anymore, because the command key shortcuts are out of order.
    Cmd + Q
    Cmd + C
    Cmd + V
    Cmd + X
    These are now the key shortcuts I've noticed that aren't working anymore. Other apps (a part from Firefox) don't seem to have these problems.
    In the meantime I have to use the mouse cursor and choose from the menu bar.
    Apple support wasn't able to help me! They just gave me the advice force quit Safari and restart it while pushing the ALT-key. Result: Nothing!
    Thanks in advance for your help.
    Kind regard,

    That is rather odd if they are all visible as shortcut commands.
    Here are some more tests to do…
    1) Disable all your Safari Extensions & retest (in Safari Preferences).
    2) Logout of the account (from the Apple menu). At the login window enter your password & hold shift as you click the login button. Keep it held until the Desktop has become usable. This disables 'User login items' - retest. Logout after testing.
    3) Try a safe boot… OS X: What is Safe Boot, Safe Mode?
    Does it still happen in safe mode? This disables third party extensions & some inessential Apple system extensions - things will not be normal, however the Mac should be 'functional', test as much as you can.
    Post the results of those here, it may give us a better idea where to look.

  • I have a new iMac running OS 10.9 when I use the Command S shortcut it no longer saves the active document it speaks it instead.

    I have a new iMac running OS 10.9.  When I use the Command S shortcut in any of my apps (numbers, text edit etc), it no longer saves the active document it speaks it instead.  How can I revert to the save shortcut function?

    have you looked in
    system preference->Dictiation & speech if it's assigned there?
    or system preference->accessibility if it's assigned there?

  • Command+Delete not working in iTunes 10.1.2

    Just noticed this since updating. The 'Delete' option under 'Edit' is not selectable and the Command+Delete option yields no results.
    Anyone else have this problem?

    It's been intermittently working for me. Dragging the song to the Trash does not work either. Usually a restart takes care of it but I've also repaired permissions as well as an Archive and Install of the OS. Odd.

  • Command-5 shortcut for 5-star rating photos in iPhoto not working

    When I go to 5-star rate a photo in iPhoto using the default Command-5 shortcut, the shortcut no longer works.
    The Command-1, Command-2, Command-3, Command-4 shortcuts work for (1-star through to 4-star ratings), but for some reason Command-5 no longer works???
    There is nothing wrong with my "5" on my keyboard.
    I went to my local Apple Store and spoke to a Genius. He said that there is probably a mistake in the iPhoto code, and that the mistake would only be corrected after someone mentioned to apple the problem.
    I would like to find out if there is any way firstly to rectify the problem myself? or alternatively how to get in touch with Apple to let them know there is a problem, so that they can fix it by the next software update.
    Thanks

    Ty trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)

  • Command delete no longer moves to highlight next filename, What gives?

    I often rapidly review filenames in my documents folder using the down arrow in the tree view with a preview of the documents first page at the right  ( what follows also applies to the album view).    In snow leopard I could use command delete on a filename and the OS would immediately move the highlight down to  the next doc in the alpha list.   In Lion when I delete any highlighting of filenames entirely disappears and will not reappear till a click on a new filename. 
    Needless to say this slows down my quick review & deletions to a snails pace.  This cannot be an improvement in the interface unless Apple thinks we have all become dimwitted enought to repeatedly hit the delelte without looking. 

    You are asking why command-delete doesn't highlight the next file after the one you just deleted?
    I don't know what "Album view" means, but in the Cover Flow view the desired behavior occurs on my computer.
