De-activating keyboard command for iTunes

I want to use control-option-space for another program.
Currently it causes iTunes to open. To disable this through the Keyboard Prefs panel I need to know the exact menu item name, but it does not appear in iTunes's menu so I cannot do that.

We're just users here. Send feedback -- including feature requests -- to Apple via "Aperture→Provide Aperture Feedback".
There is no keyboard command. Aperture uses the mouse "scroll" command. You may turn up a utility which allows you to map the mouse commands to keyboard shortcuts.
You might also search the forum for posts on resizing Brushes with the Intuos4 tablet. There may be a work-around which you can apply to your trackball.

Disabling Keyboard commands with itunes?

Does anyone know if it's possible to disable the keyboard commands for itunes? I'm trying to use other programs like Illustrator but whenever I hit keys like "apple+c" or whatever, it makes the itunes skip to the next track. Any advice would be appreciated ..
Oddly enough, this just started happening today ... i've never had a problem with this before

Hi, just bought a brand new imac 20inch 2.66 Intel mac with wired alu keyboard and I have just the exact same problem. When my itunes is opened and playing, I cannot type anything in another programm, because my itunes responds to that: skipping numbers, starting and pausing.
But... it's not only itunes. When I use iphoto, touching of lifting my keyboard will start random slightshows which are very hard to stop. Also typing some text in iphoto wil start and stop slideshows.
It seems like I only have to take a look at my keyboard and all kind of things are starting to happen. Also switching between spaces with ctrl and arrow keys make the mac do al kinds of weird things, except switching.
Further my wireless mightymouse is daily asking to be installed again. Weird!!?!
I called Apple Care, and I have already done the following things:
Checking the HD and repairing it
Archive and install OSX
Alt cmd P R
Formatting the entire computer and installing OSX again, incl. all the updates
All these things are not helping. The problem keeps existing.
Tomorrow I am going to call Apple Care again and hoping to have a solution. But I strongly believe the problem has to do with the keyboard.
Does anyone know a solution? Is it the keyboard?!?
Please help me!!

Can I change the keyboard command for full screen? I don't see the option in preferences.

Can i change the keyboard command for entering Full Screen? I don't see the option in the keyboard preferences pane.

My midi set up is fairly extensive, and what I've done is keep an up to date diagram of all my midi interfaces and device connections. I use this as the desktop background on my studio mac, and just hit F11 when I need to reference something. Simple but effective.

I need to find the keyboard command for "PrintScreen"

I'm using a MacBook Pro with Mac OS X Version 10.7.5.
Processor 2.4 GHz intel core 2 Duo.
I'm just looking for the keyboard command for the "PrintScreen" function.
Any help?

Thanks, Niel,
The only way that I could print all the columns on the page was to use the printscreen function. Regular printing cut off a crucial portion of the information.
If you know of any way to bring the print screen to full size - mine would only print in a compressed version - I'd love to know that as well.
Your answer, however, was very helpful.
Thanks,
Michael

System prerences won't save keyboard commands for dashboard or desktop

I clicked the checkboxes to turn on the keyboard commands for Dashboard and Desktop. I used control-up arrow for Dashboard, and control-down arrow for Desktop. When I restart, the commands don't work. I thought maybe I had made System Preferences crash, so I made a point of quitting right after making the change. When I restarted, the commands were disabled again. This has happened several times.
What gives?

At a guess, I would think this error code has to do with the video artifacts you are experiencing. You might try reseating all the cables to the display. If the position of the screen makes a difference, there may be damage to a cable, particularly where it goes through the hinge.
Apple is the keeper of the error codes. If you have access to an Apple Store, you could probably ask about this.
Don't know about the other intermittent problems. Does an external keyboard work? If so, there's likely a problem with the internal, maybe even again, a cable or connection.
You could also try creating a new use account and see if the keyboard and mouse problems persist. If not, there could be some sort of software corruption in your usual account. Ditto with the freezing.
Good luck!

Can I create a keyboard command for the Ken Burns effect?

Friends,
I am creating a short video that consists of about 40 stills and a few video clips. For each of the stills I want to create a Ken Burns effect. I know that there is a keyboard command to open the crop tool. Can I create a keyboard command that opens the Ken Burns editor? I guess the broader question is whether I can create a macro that combines a keystroke and one or more mouse clicks?
Thanks!
Steve

The Keyboard-shortcuts-editor
⌥ - ⌘ - K
doesn't list the 'Ken Burns'-effect as 'shortcutable' …
And I doubt, that even Automator
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2488?viewlocale=en_US
would createany useful 'shortcuts':
Each picture is different - so, how should a 'standardised' KB work?
What does work indeed , is copy/paste of Attributes:
create your KB for clip#1
hit cmd-c
select clip#2 (or many) hit ⇧-⌘-V and select the 'crop' attributes ...

Is it possible to make a global keyboard command for an Applescript application?

I have created an application with Applescript, and I want to create a global keyboard command that brings up an input dialogue.
If that's not possible, is there a way to make a dialogue appear when the Dock icon is clicked?

The regular keyboard shortcuts work with whatever application is currently active, so that leaves option number 2. To add a dynamic menuu item to the dock menu, you can add a couple of handlers to the CocoaAppletAppDelegate.scpt, which is located in the bundle contents of the Cocoa-AppleScript applet (created when you use the File > New from Template menu item):
on applicationDockMenu_(sender) -- dynamically add a menu item to the dock tile
    set myDockMenu to current application's NSMenu's alloc's initWithTitle_("") -- don't really need a title here
    myDockMenu's addItemWithTitle_action_keyEquivalent_("My spiffy new menu item", "menuAction:", "")
    return myDockMenu
end applicationDockMenu_
on menuAction_(sender) -- do something when the dock menu item is selected
    set menuTitle to sender's title() as text
    # do something
    tell current application to activate -- make sure dialog is in front
    display dialog "The " & quoted form of menuTitle & " menu item was clicked…"
    tell application "System Events" to keystroke tab using {command down} -- switch to previous application
end menuAction_

Replacing existing file - keyboard command for Replace

In some apps, if you try to save a file to a location where an older version (same name) exists, you are warned and asked if you want to Cancel or Replace. Focus is on the Cancel button, as it should be. Is there a keyboard command to move focus to the Replace button? I've tried various cobinations etc and I'm sure that there is one.
EDIT: A bit of Googling came up with this excellent site
http://davespicks.com/writing/programming/mackeys.html
and the answer is Command-r

You can also enable Access for assisitve devices in the universal access pref. pane.
You can then use TAB to move the focus and SPACE to select the button.

CS6: keyboard command for zoom in

In CS4 I used the keyboard command, command+space bar, to zoom in to a area I selected with the marquee tool. I used this all the time. With CS6 the same keyboard command works differently. I don't have the option to select the area I want with the marquee tool. Is there a way to do it in CS6?

Go to the zoom tool, turn off "scrubby zoom".

What is the keyboard command for opening the disc drive on a G5

fried old keyboard and am using an older one that doesn't have an "open" button. Thanks in advance

Yes, it’s the same for me. In this case I didn’t know about drutil. I don’t want to take this off-topic, but just a quick question to you, chorleyman: I see you’re using a Firebox. Are you satisfied with it? I believe it’s Core Audio compliant. Back then I had to decide to get the Edirol FA-66 or a Presonus Firebox. I’m absolutely happy with mine, but I’m just curious...

What are the keyboard commands for these bodycopy adjustments?

Hi,
I've been through my CS3 manual (and all over my keyboard) - trying to understand how to add leading to my paragraphs. I've done it before - which is why this is so maddening. Also how do I create a "circle C" off the baseline?
Thank you in advance.

A circle C? First if you don't know what the symbol is you probably shouldn't be using it. I think you are referring to a Copyright symbol which Wikipedia has a long definition for ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copyright ). A Copyright symbol can be inserted using the Insert Toolbar -> Text tab and clicking the Drop-Down arrow at the end which will give you the © or similar HTML code depending on the charset of the page.
The next think you need is the CSS for text-indent. Adding the text-indent CSS to the class/id of your text will allow you to indent the first line of your paragraph:

Keyboard command for scrolling? In Safari it's spacebar (down) or spacebar-shift (up).

Is there a a Firefox equivalent? Hitting the spacebar sends one backwards--to the top of the page.

That should be the same in Firefox: Space to go down one screen and Shift + Space to go up.<br />
Page Up and Page Down should also work if you have those keys.

Keyboard command for "Top sites"?

Anybody know of a key command to access "Top sites"?
Also, when accessed, it would be great to be able to navigate through the top sites with arrow keys.

Using itunes without a mouse - Keyboard commands

I have several physically challenged Dragon Dictate (MAC) and Dragon Naturally Speaking (PC) users asking for custom Dragon commands which will allow them to control iTunes by voice.
Has anyone created Dragon macros for iTunes? Does anyone have a list of keystroke commands for iTunes?

Problem with overwrite and insert keyboard commands

I'm a new user, switching from FCP. I edited one project successfully with no trouble a couple of weeks ago. Now I'm in a second project and having a weird difficulty. Using a pretty new Mac 8 core tower.
The insert and overlay keyboard commands (comma and period keys) don't work. They still work in the old project but not this one. If I start a new sequence and copy my timeline to it, the commands will work for awhile but ONLY with video, not with the audio tracks. Drag and drop works fine but that really slows me down.
The clips I'm using are all the same format (H.264 from Canon 5DII and some still photos) as the first project. Only difference in this project is lots of chroma keying and some resizing of background still photos. Nothing unrendered.
I started a new project just now and imported the problem project into it, started a new sequence, copied old sequence, and I get the same problem. I can drop in video with a keyboard command but not audio. Earlier it was not even doing video. Yesterday when I'd start a new sequence and do the same thing, it would give me video on the keyboard command but then eventually that would stop and it would do nothing. At one point the cursor would move over the width of the clip, as if it had been dropped into the timeline, but then that stopped as well.
I've trashed preferences and that didn't work. I did that according to a procedure I found online. It said open up PP while holding down the Shift and Option keys. I did that twice. Nothing.
To summarize: Keyboard commands for overwrite and insert edit do not work in this project but do in an older project.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Well, thanks to an email from another person who was having the same problem, it's all solved not.
Operator error. Dang. Who knew--in FCP you select a track by clicking on the V or A buttons to the far left. In Premiere Pro you have to make sure BOTH the far left button and the one to the right that says Video 1, Audio 1, etc. are also clicked. They BOTH have to be light gray. In my first project, everything was properly activated but in the next project apparently they were not and that carried over to succeeding projects (even though I didn't change anything...at least consciously).
So all as well now. No glitch, no bug. Just good ol' fashioned operator error. I will wear the dunce hat today.
