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,
Steven

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.

Type input and command key functions don't work

I have regularly been experiencing problems with the type cursor not moving and not inputing type while using the keyboard. Also while this occurs command key shortcuts and the force quit dialog box won't appear on the screen after pressing the command, option and escape keys. The only temporary solution I have at the moment is choosing restart from the Apple menu.
Any suggestions or help with this would be appreciated!

You might try repair and maintenance, which Dr. Smoke goes into detail here:
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/faqs.html
I've had keyboard problems that I fixed by running repairs.
You could also have a bad keyboard. If it's a non-Apple keyboard make sure you have the most up to date software for it. If you happen to have a spare keyboard plug that in and see if it happens with a different one.

LabVIEW 2011 quick drop ctrl-key shortcuts don't work

I've noticed that none of the Ctrl-Key shortcuts used in the Quick Drop menu work. For example, Ctrl-T doesn't move the terminal labels and Ctrl-R won't remove and rewire. Is there a hidden setting that I have missed?
Thanks!

I am just now encountering the same problem, only renaming the INI file didn't do the trick like above. As a matter of fact, the INI key "QuickDropKeyboardShortcutMappings" doesn't even exist in either the renamed (bak) or the newly created ini file.
Since I have grown to rely on the handy QD shortcuts this is starting to really annoy me...
I have checked that I can open all the files in the respective LV version (using 2011+2013 and sometimes got these mixed up with the newly saved shortcut VIs when distributing them to all the 4 LV-Quickdrop folders (x86 and x64)).
Funny thing is, the VI lists in the QD plugins folder and the DQ window, shortcut tab, greatly differ, see pictures attached. Any hints? Otherwise I am going to reinstall since a repair didn't help either. Tried that already as well.

Shortcuts do not work anymore in Safari and Maps since I updated to Yosemite

Since I upgraded to Yosemite, both Safari 8.0 and Maps 2.0 do not respond to any shortcuts, like "cmd q" to quit or "cmd c" to copy. I have to do everything manually which is quite frustrating, as it slows my workflow down. I can only use the shortcuts if I click on the bar at the top of the window (Safari File Edit View etc.).
I bought my Mac 6 months ago and so don't think i'ts because of the hardware .__. I only have the problem with Safari and Maps.
Can someone help me please?
Thanks already

Outlook web app not working properly in Safari since switching to Yosemite

I have installed/upgraded to Yosemite first on my MacBook Air (13-inch, 2011) and then on my IMac 13.2 (27inch, 2012). In both cases I have experienced the same thing: when trying to attach a file to the message written using the Outlook Web App, I get only upper part of this window and while I can browse for the file, I cannot attach it as I cannot reach and click the "attach file" button. Needless to say this is really annoying!
I did not have this problem before upgrading to Yosemite and Safari 8. The same function still works if I use Firefox or Opera.
Anyone had similar problems and any suggestions how to go around it without switching back to the old OS X?

Same here.
MBP Late 2007 with Magic Trackpad
OSX 10.6.8
Safari 5.1 (6534.50)
I could zoom in once and then it wouldn't work anymore by using the pinching on the Magic Trackpad.
Pressing Command and +/- still worked.
I deleted Safari 5.1 and reinstalled the Combo Update to get 5.0.5 back and it worked properly again.
Then I installed 5.1 another time and had the same error again.
I guess I got to roll back to 5.0.5

Finder Window - command 1, 2, 3 or 4 key sequences don't work

Help with this one would be greatly apprecieated. In a finder window, command 1, 2, 3 or 4 key sequences don't work. In fact, command 2 sleeps the computer instead of displaying the icons in List View
Please help

Got it!
It's not Command-1 but Command-Alt-1, etc.
Did it change recently? I don't know...

Special character short cuts don't work anymore

I have no clue what happened, what I may have done, or if something was installed that made the change, but short cut keystrokes don't work anymore for creating special characters (e.g. "option - (dash) and option shift - (dash) to create an mdash and ndash respectively). I've tried restoring defaults under keyboard shortcuts (sys pref > keyboard) and have Full Keyboard Access set to all controls, but nothing's changed.
I've also scoured Google for the past half hour and have not been able to find anything. Any clues as to what's going on?

I also tried rechecking Unicode Hex Input and the keyboard shortcuts still worked. So it looks like you need to have U.S. Extended checked to support keyboard shortcuts for things like – (mdash) and — (ndash).
I don't think that should be necessary. Either US or US Extended should work fine on its own.
In system prefs/language & text/input sources, check the box for Show Input Menu in Finder. That way you will know for sure what keyboard is active via the "flag" menu at the top right. Accidentally switching to Unicode Hex (which can be done via a keyboard shortcut) will disable your Option key for special characters (which is why I asked you to make sure only US was checked).

Keyboard (hardware & onscreen) suddenly don't work anymore - only factory reset helps

I have my Passport for about a month now and just experienced the following problem for the second time: all of sudden the keyboard (both hardware and onscreen) don't work anymore. I cannot enter my device password anymore, I can focus the password dialog, but then simply nothing happens when I press keys.
After a restart of the Passport it asks me for my SIM card PIN. Again, I can focus the text field in the dialog, and I can touch numbers of the onscreen keyboard, and the number keys light up, but no input gets to the dialog.
There is simply no way to activate the device anymore. I can do a backup using BlackBerry Link, and I can access the device with BlackBerry Blend - but the device itself is useless. No kind of restart or reset helps. The only solution is to do a factory reset, after that the device works fine again - for some time.
Once this happened while I was on the road, without doing anything with the device. The second time it happened when I was trying to deploy a self written app using the Momentics IDE.
Additional information:
- development mode is on (needed since I want to develop Apps for BB10)
- Snap is installed
- a handful of Android apps from Google Play store are installed
- two BlackBerry World apps are installed (whatsapp and HUB++LED)
Did anyone experienced similar issues or has an idea what might cause this problem?
Thanks!

Have you tried using a usb keyboard/mouse?
I don't use any usb, only use PS2. Maybe it is possible to use some sort of a PS2 to usb converter, but I would rather like the PS2 to work.

Volume and brightness buttons don't work anymore

I did a complete restore from factory DVD and since then the volume and brightness buttons don't work anymore. I have an All-in-One AE1900. Anybody can help me fix this problem? Since I do not have the original keyboard anymore, I can't use the hot key combination to do it. Thanks for your help.

I've had this same problem, but when I am using "Parallels" to run windows programs on my new Macbook Air, with an external Mac LED Cinema Display, the brightness keys on the external apple keyboard do not work. Sound seems to work fine. They work fine in Mac mode.
Any solutions?

Video's on apple site don't work anymore after Lion. Help?

Hi,
I have a macbook pro, a ipad(1) and iphone 4. You could say I like Apple products. Temted by the advertising I upgraded my operating system to Lion. Now I have problems with some apps that don't work properly anymore and I can't make back-ups on my NAS (Lacie NetworkSpace 2) because Time Machine can't communicate anymore with my NAS. Problems that will probably be solved within weeks or months (that's what Lacie helpdesk says). Let's hope that nothing bad happens in the meantime, because I cannot make back-ups anymore and time capsule is not working anymore.
Now to my question. I discovered another bug after installing Lion. Visiting the apple.com site with my Macbook Pro I tried to look at a video on this site but the video doesn't start. When I use my iPad I can watch these video's. Also video's in iTunes work on my Macbook. Only the turorial or explanation video's on the apple site don't work anymore. Does somebody know how I can solve this problem?
I am still a happy Apply user but Lion disappoints a bit (untill now). A lot of people have problems I read. Let's hope the guys at Apple and other firms will solve them all very swiftly. For the time being I would not advise you to upgrade to Lion.
Peter.

Sounds like you need to restore your Apple TV to factory settings.
See this Apple document:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4367
You will need to use the "Micro USB Cable" to restore it to factory settings.
See the article shown above.
You must unplug the power cord before connecting the ATV to your computer....

My iPad 1 headphone jack don't work anymore.HELP!!!

My IPad headphone jack don't work anymore. I have tested it with three headphones.Sorry I'm german and my englisch isn't the best.

Moo97-
If your iPad is still under warrantee, contact Apple for advice on how to get it repaired or replaced.
If your iPad is no longer covered by the warrantee, search the web for iPad Repair. There is probably an iPad repair center near you.

My hotkey don't work anymore using Windows 8

I have installed Windows 8 and now my hotkey don't work anymore. I looked online but i am not sure what drivers i need to install for that. I hope you can help me with this.
I would love to get everything back to work like before the update.

Hi
The hotkey requires an Toshiba driver/utility called Toshiba Value Added Package.
Did you check if your notebook is ready for Win 8 upgrade?
Check this thread:
