Command F2 not working on 2010 iMac for TDM

I want to convert my 2010 iMac to be just a monitor for a 2011 MacBook Pro. Have thunderbolt cable between. command F2 does nothing. I have verified that the keyboard preferences are NOT using F2 as standard function key. I am using an Apple wireless keyboard for the iMac.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Two things:
To use Target Display mode, your iMac must be a 27-inch one. If not, you cannot use Target Display mode.
Your Mid 2010 iMac has not got Thunderbolt and it does not detect a Thunderbolt cable, being this the reason why you cannot use Target Display mode.
If you have got a Mid 2010 27-inch iMac, just get a Mini DisplayPort cable instead and you will be able to turn on Target Display mode. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3924?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
If you have got a Mid 2010 21'5-inch iMac, you need to use an application like ScreenRecycler

  • Shift+command+b not working for bold

    I just updated to cs6 and my "bold" key command is not working. (shift+command+b on mac) I am using a font that has BOLD. I can select bold from the character palette and it works fine but the key command will not work. I checked my key command list and is there by default. It should work. It worked fine on cs5 for me. I even tried holding the fn key but no dice. Any ideas? I have to bold many many items so I can not possibly use the character palette....thanks.

    "Nope" the first word of my response, was to your question. It means No. Meaning "No I did not copy a custom set". I am using default set.
    I wonder if some other app has taken that kb shortcut. Nothing happens when I press it though....and I wouldnt know how to find out.
    edit - problem solved. Even though the font says that it has a bold face I guess that it does not. Bold still works fine for other fonts. Sorry for your time.

  • Command Key Not Working

    My Command (CMD) keys are not working on my iMac.
    It doesn't matter what application I am using and I've tried different keyboards with the same result. I checked my startup items and nothing is there. Login as different user, same problem.
    Potential clue: this machine had been used as a demo computer for conferences/expositions and I suspect that the prior owner did something but I can't tell what.

    Check whether you have the plist file in the
    'Home Folder>Library>Preferences'folder.
    1. com.apple.keyboardSetupAssistant.plist
    If it is there then try removing it and restarting the Mac.
    It appears like the the software is broken. More specifically there is an apple software update for the Keyboard firmware update which needs to be installed. If it is already installed in the computer then probably you will need to try a disk repair from the install disk or an Archive and Install.
    Check whether the software is installed here.
    1. Click Apple and Open System Preferences
    2. Open Software Update
    3. Click on Installed updates and check whether you have the firmware updated.
    Also note that the firmware update alone may not resolve the issue. You will need to install the latest Mac OS X 10.5.7 for the update to effect. This can also be done as a software update.
    Good Luck

    Hi
    I had the same issue on linux a few weeks back. What tuned out was, when you install the Oracle app svr it does not include the system paths by default.
    The path where mkdir is located may not be visible to the app.
    Try to hardcode the path for mkdir as /bin/mkdir .... and seee if that works.
    If the above statement works then add that path in the paths variable in default.env file located in $ORACLE_HOME/forms/server directory

  • External command is not working in File Receiver Adapter

    Hi,
       I have tried to copy the file which is mentioned in my File Adapter (Receiver) to 3 different folders thru OS command. The purpose is to save time. I have created one CC for Source(File) and one CC for target(File). After the target file is created, I want to copy this file in 3 folders. For this I have written one batch file in my system.
    File Name: copy1.bat
    @ECHO OFF
    COPY %1 C:\TEST1\arch_t1
    COPY %1 C:\TEST2\arch_t2 
    COPY %1 C:\TEST3\arch_t3
    DEL %1
    The command which I entered in the Receiver CC (File Adatper is)
    Run Operating System Command After Message Processing
    Command Line: C:\FILES\copy1.bat %F %f
    Timeout(secs): 60
    Terminate Program After Timeout - Check box is selected.
    But, this external command is not working. (because the target files are not created in those directories C:\TEST1, C:\TEST2, C:\TEST3)
       I did this scenario by refering the Michael'w weblog:
    /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2007/02/08/xipi-command-line-sample-functions
       In this blog, he has also given how to troubleshoot external command. I tried this also. It is not working.
        I use Windows XP OS. XI 3.0 SP 18.
       Friends, Could you kindly tell why this external command is not working? What could be the problem?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kind Regards,
    Jeg P.

    Hi, Jeg.
    As the note says, please check the java Runtime.exec behavior
    with the proper user.
    If in doubt, check if the command can be successfully run through
    the Java Runtime.exec(...) API. Also note that the command is run
    as user "<sid>adm" (Unix) / "SAPService<SID>" (Windows).
    So, Could you check the following(very dirty one!) Java in your
    XI server and check if it works? For simulating %F, create a test
    file C:\FILES\test.txt whatever the content is.
    import java.util.*;
    import java.io.*;
    public class ExecJava {
      public static void main(String args[]) {
        try {           
          Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
          Process proc = rt.exec("C:/FILES/copy1.bat C:
    FILES
    test.txt");
        } catch (Exception e) {
          e.printStackTrace();
    Good Luck.

  • Why export audio to movie command not visible and detect cuts command is not working in 64bit mode?

    Does anyone know why export to audio disappear from menu in 64bit mode?
    Why detect cuts command is not working well in 64 bit mode?
    I tested on several machines (brand-new iMac, brand-new MacPro with 10.8 OS, MacPro with 10.6.8),and everythig wotks in 32 bit mode. As I switch to 64 bit mode detect cuts only put one marker at the begening of film.
    I also noticed that Firewire output option in 64bit mode is not avaible.
    Is there a certain film format that I have to use to make it work? I tried DV PAL, but I had ther same result.
    Thanks a lot.

  • New Itunes is not working because my imac is 10.6.8 need help ?

    New Itunes is not working because my imac is 10.6.8 need help ....

    Because you require Lion to run it. You should not have installed it.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase a redemption code at the Online Apple Store: OS X Mountain Lion. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. Use the code to redeem a download of Mountain Lion from the App Store. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later.
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model
                 Identifier 5,1 or later.
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later.
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later.
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later.
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later.

  • 6120 classic:My voice commands do not work

    Please help.
    Don’t know if I'm just being stupid or there is something not right with my 6120c.
    My voice commands do not work.
    If I press the button for a voice command, it says that there are no voice tags saved.
    If I go into the voice command application (Which should create the voice tags on opening), I cant playback the voice tags, its give a 'voice system error' error message.
    Is there something that is not set up properly? In the voice command settings, the synthesizer is 'on'?
    Also, I don’t have voice tags on my contacts??
    I read somewhere that this is a firmware problem and the phone should be taken back to nokia. Is this the case?
    Somebody please help.

    I formated my nokia n6120 using the code *#7370#. It deletes !everything! (settings, aplications...), but I have no voice sytem error now.

  • Some commands are not working nor in illustrator nor photoshop, any advice better than Adobe?

    Illustrator is not fuctioning at 100%, some commands do not work ( eg - command open, nor place etc ) and same with photoshop....
    Any advice

    pcmyhre,
    You may try the list, possibly starting with item 7) in 5), which is a list of the usual suspects, which may disturb and confuse Illy so she fails to do even simple things.
    The following is a general list of things you may try when the issue is not in a specific file, and when it is not caused by issues with opening a file from external media, see below. You may have tried/done some of them already; 1) and 2) are the easy ones for temporary strangenesses, and 3) and 4) are specifically aimed at possibly corrupt preferences); 5) is a list in itself, and 6) is the last resort.
    If possible/applicable, you should save current artwork first, of course.
    1) Close down Illy and open again;
    2) Restart the computer (you may do that up to at least 5 times);
    3) Close down Illy and press Ctrl+Alt+Shift/Cmd+Option+Shift during startup (easy but irreversible);
    4) Move the folder (follow the link with that name) with Illy closed (more tedious but also more thorough and reversible);
    5) Look through and try out the relevant among the Other options (follow the link with that name, Item 7) is a list of usual suspects among other applications that may disturb and confuse Illy, Item 15) applies to CC, CS6, and maybe CS5);
    Even more seriously, you may:
    6) Uninstall, run the Cleaner Tool (if you have CS3/CS4/CS5/CS6/CC), and reinstall.
    http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html
    External media: It is always recommended here to open/save from/to own hard disk, and to copy from/to networks and removable media. You may be lucky (for a while), but the chances of file corruption and other unpleasantnesses are immensely greater when you use anything but the harddisk, and it is better to be safe than sorry.
    In addition to the (far greater) risk of file corruption, some issues are mentioned here:

    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html

  • Command Sets not working on ACS 5.1

    I'm running ACS 5-1-0-44-3.
    I have everything running properly on ACS 5.1.  I'd like to implement command sets for selected users and groups.  Under Access Policies -> Device Admin-> Authorization I have Command Sets selected.  The cisco provided is DenyAllCommands.  I have this command set running on all groups and every groups is still able to issue any command they wish.  I've also created a "show_only" command set that I've issued one group and they are still able to do conf t or any other command.
    Am I missing something?
    Do you need to reference the command set name under the shell profiles?
    Its my understanding that all you have to do is reference it in "Authorization" in the rules under Device Admin.
    I can understand a custom command set not working because of user error but DenyAllCommands should work.
    Anyone have any ideas?
    I have already re-patched the ACS
    Stopped and started services.
    And it seems like Command Sets is the only not referenced in the logs

    I do it a lot 
    could you paste screnshot of your command set?
    I've recently met another issue,
    with my command set definition as below (as you can see its very simple):
    almost every show is blocked (as suspected) but not "show run" (which is strange for me)
