Command T shortcut not working

Hi, for some reason I'm suddenly unable to use the command T keyboard shortcut to open a new tab in either Safari or FireFox. I'm not sure when the problem started I just noticed it today. I can open a new tab from the finder window but not with the shortcut.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I was able to go into the preferences and make my own keyboard shortcut.

Command - Tab shortcut not working

My command - tab shortcut stops working after a random period of time and I have to restart my MacBook to get it working again. Any idea what could be causing this keyboard shortcut to fail? I tried killing and re-running the Dock but that does not fix it. A refuse to reboot my Mac everytime it happens (this is not Windows...) Any ideas on what might be causing the problem?

Actually I just researched this further and found a solution here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1830738&tstart=0
+Open the activity monitor and look for something like the "ScreenSaverEngine" - the process should be marked as "not responding" (written in red)+
+End this process and Command+Tab and other shortcuts will work again!+

I'm having more or less the same problem (was first stricken with it about two weeks ago).
Clicking Copy in Edit menu does the trick, ie copies, but the Command C shortcut, in any application mysteriously and infuriatingly brings up some document in Adobe reader.
In addition, it may by pertinent, this problem first manifest itself when the keyboard shortcut I had assigned under the dictionary app Ultralingua( nothing to do with Command C) also brought up the same uncalled for document in Adobe Reader.
I have tried various things, including repairing permission, but to no avail.
The problem (both of them actually) is driving me nuts. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

"Get info" (command I) shortcut not working

When using Finder (MacBookPro 10.5.5), if I try to use the keyboard shortcut of command-I to get info on a file, it doesn't work. Nothing happens.
If I go through the menu, then it works fine. Other shortcuts, like open (command-O) still work.
I've added this shortcut under system preferences, but that hasn't helped.
Option-Command-I and control-command-I will bring up the info window.
Note, this is not for itunes--I've seen that plenty of people are having problems with "get info" there.

Create a new admin user account, log into it, and see if the problem persists. If not, there's corruption/conflict in the original account. If so, then it's system-wide and installing the latest COMBO update, repairing permissions, and restarting should fix it. If not, report back for more detailed steps.

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,
David

Try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file.
Quit Safari.
Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Relaunch Safari. Try a bookmark.
If that didn't help, check Safari / Preferences then select the Extensions tab. If you have any installed, turn that off, quit then relaunch Safari.
If Extensions aren't the issue, reset Safari. From the menu bar click Safari / Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset.

Shortcut not working in cs6

The keyboard shortcut command - h does not work. But it does from the menu bar drop down under Dreamweaver. On a mac 10.7.4

I can confirm that Cmd+H doesn't work in DW CS6 on a Mac. However, Cmd+Q works every time for me.
When you find what you think is a bug (and Cmd+H is definitely a bug), the best place to report it is through the bug report/feature request form at https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform.

Why is my keyboard shortcut not working?

Indesign keyboard shortcut for CUT (command+x) is not working. I'm on a Mac running OS 10.9.5. I need that puppy!

My installation has been known to randomly forget which shortcut set I prefer.
Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts
verify that there is an entry.
(The first field - Set - is empty when kbsc's are not correct)

Shift-Command-R does not work anymore

Hello all,
I've noticed that the shortcut shift-command-r does not work anymore on my macbook pro. I used it for the calendar to refresh all calendars, and its also handy to open the reader in safari 5.
When I open the keyboard viewer from the language and text menu I can see it when I press shift, then command but when I press "R" nothing changes, only shift+command stay highlighted. Other letters do work, so its a bit strange.
Anyone know a solution for this?
Thank you in advance

Nope thats not the problem, the listening key is Esc. It is as if the keyboard does not register it when the R is pressed in combination with the shift and the command together. As I said, the keyboard viewer shows every keystroke except the shift-command-r combi.

Go to current song (command L) is not working in itunes 11

Go to current song (command L) is not working in itunes 11, anyone having the same issue?

Thanks for figuring that out.
I thought that command-L was working when I first switched to iTunes 11, but then it wasn't working anymore. That's the ticket: I changed the display to show the sidebar.
Still, I'd like to be able to use the command-L feature whether I'm showing the sidebar or not.
I'd also like it if iTunes would keep showing the currently playing song when in Grid or Artist view modes. It doesn't, so I have to keep using command-L to see the current song info.

CMD+ shortcuts not working in Dreamweaver CS3

I'm have a very strange issue with CMD+ keyboard shortcuts
not working in Dreamweaver CS3 on OSX 10.5. These actions are
working from the menus (i.e., copy, cut, paste, etc.). CMD+
shortcuts work in other CS3 apps. I've searched this forum and
googled up and down and found some references to issues like this
with Dreamweaver 8, but nothing for CS3.
Has anyone experienced this problem? I'm completely stumped.

My concern wasn't with the navbar, but thanks for the headsup.
The problem is that the link in the upper left hand corner, Suzie's Story, is a rollover image but it does not reveal the other image when the cursor goes over it.

PS5 Action Keyboard Shortcuts Not Working

PS5 Action Keyboard Shortcuts Not Working -- Running 10.6.7 on a Mac Pro. Any suggestions?
I've tried restarting, changing key combinations, etc. Nothing works and I'm wasting time using my mouse...
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I had this problem too but using Windows 7. I tried resetting, renaming the shortcuts, swearing loudly, none of it worked. I found out it was a totally unrelated program, Xfinity Protection Suite, that was the culprit. My virus protection program added it as an 'upgrade.' AFter I uninstalled it everything was back to normal. Have you installed anything new onto your computer lately that could be interfering?

Command-V will not work!

I use command-c & command-v more than any other keys on my keyboard and all of a sudden, command-v will not work. I think one of my children pushed something that disabled it, but I cannot get it to paste anything even though my other command options work. When I press command-c the "Edit" tab highlights and when I press command-v the "Edit" tab also highlights but it does nothing. It does this in every program so it's not program specific. Wow...amazing how missing one function can disable a person so quickly!

A couple of people who have had this problem found an SMC reset resolved it, which is odd as you wouldn't think there would be any connection. However it is easy enough to do.

1.
Shut down the computer.
2.
Unplug the computer's power cord.
3.
Wait fifteen seconds.
4.
Attach the computer's power cord.
5.
Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.
If that does not work, then explore your idea that your kids may have re-assigned that function to something else. Ask them if they were doing anything like that.

Command-C is not working consistently to.

Command-C is not working consistently for me. In multiple apps, but mostly in Word, I find myself pressing Command-C and then Command-V to paste and what I paste is the LAST thing I copied, not the most recent. I sometimes have to repeat teh sequence several times before it pastes the thing I want it to. Any suggestions? I tried searching for this problem, but didn't find any relevant discussions. Thanks!

Hello eeinna,
I was thinking it might be a good idea to reset the SMC and the PRAM on the computer. Here are the 2 articles for those processes:
About NVRAM and PRAM
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379
And
Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964
If needed I would also recommend testing the issue in a new user, and following the directions in this article as well based on what you find.

How do I paste a screen capture? Edit-paste or command-V do not work.

How do I paste a screen capture? Edit-paste or command-V do not work. Tom

how did you take the screenshot?
if you used a key combo like command+shift+ a number it will be saved as a file on your desktop
you need to add control* to whatever key combination you pressed to put it on your clipboard
*sorry for saying shift before i meant control
