Help Expose Key Commands...They Haven Taken Over

I have several programs (Logic Pro, and others) that I have custom key commands assigned in.
Last night, in one of the programs I was assigning a new command, but it wouldn't work. So I thought maybe Expose settings were conflicting. I went into System Prefs and just unchecked everything under the keyboard commands. That made things worse. Now, no matter what I did, Expose would shrink the screen or show what apps were open, or do something with the dock. So I went back and said "RESTORE DEFAULTS."
Now today I went into Logic and tried one of my custom commands and it is no longer working, none of them are. They all call up some kind of various Expose command.
How can I get Expose to stop interfering? It seems like all commands that I made using the control key are now bringing up some kind of system shortcut.
Thanks
Tom

The only way I figured how to get around this was to re-map Photoshop shortcuts. Very challenging. But it worked.

  • HELP! has  my server been taken over?

    Im new to Mac, yet i do have some general computer knowledge.
    So this is my Problem:
    I was Surfing on the web, until my mac just shut down, i couldn't restart it at all. 15min later it turned on by itself. So then i got 2 messages popping up on my screen. The "something" as "someone" is trying to access your server click Deny for limited acces or allow.
    And then the same message appeared but with a different name.
    So obviously i clicked Deny, but the access is still granted, just limited.
    So now my mac wont let me install or update anything, it wont let me logg on to facebook, twitter or any other forums even my email.. (i dont know how i managed to log in to the apple forum i created a new account)
    And it sometimes says, "the download has been cancled" because i dont have the right to download anything, Odd??

    Please help, thanks!

    There are a lot of current malware/adware, sql, and other things to be aware of currently.
    Crashing or freezing a system no matter how can often result in damage to the directory, lost files, and require extra maintenance.
    Having a bootable backup, not just TM, is a good way to protect yourself, and to protect you from any update-gone-bad.

  • Who is inbox? They've taken over my Firefox Application. How do I get rid of this, or is it you rebranding?

    When I click on my Firefox icon on my front page, I get a whole other "internet browser" called Inbox, which seems to have displaced you all together. It has not affected my internet explorer browser. I suspect that I have been hacked, despite a two-month-ago installation of AVG antivirus softwarre, which was recommended by a friend, but is cumbersome and annoying. Any ideas? Are you rebranding to Inbox? I would not think so. I like my Firefox just the way it is. thanks for your help in advance , Laura Beauchamp

  • Drop Down Deals, MacKeeper and other popups have taken over Safari v 8.0; I'm using OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. Help!

    Drop Down Deals, MacKeeper and other popups have taken over Safari v 8.0; I'm using OS X Yosemite 10.10.1. Help!
    Whenever I click on a link or open a page these popups show up.
    I've tried the following:
    Cleared website history and data, and gone to Safari > Preferences > Privacy > and removed all website data.
    then restarted my computer
    In Finder, holding down Option and clicking on Go to find the hidden Library file:
    deleted/moved to trash the following files:
    caches
    internet plugins
    launch agents
    any plist files in safari folder
    Then, restarted my macbook pro and then emptied the trash
    I've Safari > Preferences > Security > blocked pop up windows
    What should I try next?
    PLEASE HELP ME!!
    Thank you,

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem. You may have installed a variant of the "VSearch" ad-injection malware.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    A folder named "LaunchDaemons" may open. Look inside it for a file with a name of the form
              com.something.daemon.plist
    Here something is a variable word, which can be different in each case. It could be "cloud," "dot," "highway," "submarine," "trusteddownloads," or pretty much anything else.
    There may also be a file named
               com.something.helper.plist
    in the same folder.
    If you find files with names that fit the above description, post what you have for "something."

  • Network has been taken over by other program! please help...

    hello everyone
    I have an eMac and the problem is that, everytime that I am trying to access the Network tab in System Preferences, I get a message that it's been taken over by another application!
    Can anyone help me on that? Is it a matter of permissions or something else?
    Any useful commands or software to fix the problem?
    Thanks in advance!

    I have a broadband connection with BT Internet via the BT Home Hub (i.e. router), but I also still have an old dial-up account with OneTel. I have had no trouble at all with my BT broadband connection, but one contact of mine persistently fails to receive e-mails from me and I wanted to conduct some tests, so I decided (amongst other things) to try my OneTel dial-up service, which I haven't used for a long time.
    I immediately ran into the problem of the 'Your network settings have been changed…' problem. I rebooted — no improvement. I ran Disk Warrior — no improvement. I then tried the idea of mouse-over-lock idea and it worked. But what is more remarkable is that after I disconnected from OneTel (i.e. closed the internal modem down) and then tried again, it worked straight away, without the persistent error message coming up. Thank you very much for the 'mouse-over-lock' suggestion. Whether, after I have shut my computer down and restarted, the 'repair' will still be operatve, or whether I shall have to go through the procedure again, I don't yet iknow.

  • Can not find the Automation Folder.... neither its Key Command...HELP

    I would be grateful to anyone who could find a solution to the following issue:
    I have read in Logic's 7.2.3 help reference about track automation folder. The sort of arrange window that seems to lurk behind the main arrange page and the place where you can treat the automation data as proper region material. I have tried everything, .. there does not seem to be any key command of the sort, more over I can not find any other way that could give me access to such an editor like the Automation Folder.
    Thank you for reading this.
    Nik

    • 1 • If you choose 'New Track' from the Menu, or use Control-Click-&-hold, you can select from the various options.
    • 2 • No, you don't need to do anything — it's entirely voluntary… I feel guilty for even mentioning it… I just thought that since you seem to be genuinely grateful for the help you have been getting, you had probably not read the article fully. I see that you have just had a useful reply from John Alcock, so now's your chance!

  • I tried to move my photos to MY PASSPORT and they populated all over my screen; I can't get rid of them.  HELP!

    I tried to move my photos to MY PASSPORT and they populated all over my screen - I can't get rid of them.  HELP!

    This problem sounds like a missed target and too many files: user meant to drag and drop files to the WD My Passport icon on the Desktop but dropped files on the Desktop instead. If so, there could be thousands of files on the Desktop; Finder is trying to create icons for every dropped file--and one day Finder might finish--but the Mac is essentially stuck till those files leave the Desktop.
    Various solutions exist, with increasing levels of difficulty:
    1. In Finder, hit Cmd-N to open a "list" display window of the Desktop, then move files from this window to a new folder--or, as others advise, Cmd-drag files to the WD My Passport  (easy, but given the bogged-down system, probably not an option).
    2. From the Finder menu, Go > Desktop to get to a "list" display rather than an "icon" display window, followed by drag/drop clean-up to a new folder or Cmd-drag files to the WD (again, easy, but also perhaps not possible).
    3. Start in Safe Mode (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1564) and then move the excess Desktop files to a new folder or Cmd-drag files to the WD. (Safe Mode loads only essential graphics routines, so the Finder may be more snappy even with an overloaded Desktop).
    4. Boot from the installation DVD and then navigate to the overloaded Desktop to move the photo files to a new folder or Cmd-drag to the WD.
    5. Use a second Mac to connect in Target Disk Mode (http://support.apple.com/kb/ph3838) to clean up the messy Desktop.
    6. Use Terminal and unix commands to clean the Desktop. Try the easy ways first.

  • Screen Sharing Key Mappings:  Expose and Command-Tab?

    I am using Screen Sharing successfully and loving it - except that command keys work on my local machine instead of the remote machine. How do I get the Expose keys, like F9 and F10, and/or the Command-Tab keys to work on the remote machine?
    Help?

    I never received an answer to this. I'm marking it as 'answered' only to close it out.

  • Voice Over Key Command Not working.

    I have a MacBook pro with Intel. I recently installed Leopard and was fooling around with voice over. I was able to turn on voice over via CommandfnF5 but was not able to turn it off via this key combination which you are supposed to be able to do. I found to Command+F5 turns voice over off. Is this problem documented anywhere? Is it just my computer? Let me know.

    New Imac 10.5.1 This seems to be related to my own problem. That is in the area of Control/Function Keys. They dont work as should(ie Ctrl-f2 highlight menu). But if I activate VoiceOver(Cmd-f5) they start working, additionally the apple menu shows 5 extra duplicated/additional items.( Mac OS X Software/Force Quit Safari/Restart/Shut Down/Log Out user).
    Changing the keyboard to an older one gets the Ctrl-f2 command working as expected.
    Applecare's computers had the same problem so it is OS issue.

  • I was using my wifi last night when I got an error message stating my ip address had been taken over.  Then safari stopped working and i can no longer access the internet. I looked at my ip address and it states 000.000.000....can someone please help?

    Sounds like a bogus pop up. In any case power down your Mac, your modem, your router. Then power back up in 1 minute sequence; modem, router, Mac.

  • Logic crashed, key commands no longer work as well as certain windows/preferences/tools no longer exist, help!

    While trying to record a guitar track direct through from a POD HD Pro (which I've done numerous times), Logic suddenly crashed. The screen went dark and my Macbook Pro rebooted. Once I opened Logic Pro X again, it looks like a more primitive and basic version of Logic. I no longer have the capability to open a separate mix/midi/score/etc window. When I select midi tracks they do not show up in the piano roll as to be able to edit. I've also lost all key command functions (i used just default Logic key commands). Is there any way to restore Logic Pro X or do I need to reinstall it? Thanks!

    Sounds like Logic's prefs got deleted or corrupted so...
    First, do this (Note you will lose any custom key commands you may have created ...)
    Quit Logic pro X and then....
    Delete the user preferences
    You can resolve many issues by restoring Logic Pro X back to its original settings. This will not impact your media files. To reset your Logic Pro X user preference settings to their original state, do the following:
    In the Finder, choose Go to Folder from the Go menu.
    Type ~/Library/Preferences in the "Go to the folder" field.
    Press the Go button.
    Remove the com.apple.logic10.plist file from the Preferences folder. Note that if you have programmed any custom key commands, this will reset them to the defaults. You may wish to export your custom key command as a preset before performing this step. See the Logic Pro X User Manual for details on how to do this. If you are having trouble with a control surface in Logic Pro X, then you may also wish to delete the com.apple.logic.pro.cs file from the preferences folder.
    If you have upgraded from an earlier version of Logic Pro, you should also remove ~/Library/Preferences/Logic/com.apple.logic.pro.
    Restart the computer.
    Now after restarting Logic... go to Logic Preferences/Advanced and turn on all the advanced features...
    Set other preferences back to how you like them (Not forgetting selecting your Audio device)
    Things should be then back to normal again...

  • Because I have taken over 9,999  pics, my phone is now duplicating image numbers. The problem is when I am importing with Image Capture, when I select images, the program is importing BOTH the old images of the same number as well as the new ones. Help?

    Because I have taken over 9,999 images, my phone is now duplicating image numbers. The problem is that Image Capture now imports BOTH images when I select the new ones that share numbers with old ones.  The images were completely mixed when they showed up in Image Capture - Old image 0001, new image 0001, old image 0002, new image 0002 and so forth. I clicked on "date," which then rearraged the images, and I selected only the new ones, but when they actually import to my computer BOTH old and new images are importing. Has anyone figured out how to solve this problem?

    Well, obviously all I needed to do  to solve the problem was to post about it. It has stopped, so all is well!
