How customizable are the keyboard shortcuts?

I want to be able to use just an F key as a shortcut key instead of Alt + 0. When I try to do that, the program tells me this command requires an Alt + key for that shortcut. Is there a workaround?

>satisfaction guaranteed.
Hmm... I suspect not. I can tell you why it's not possible and, I think, even why that is - although you probably won't like it.
The problem is that because you are opening a new window, which would inevitably change the window focus on the screen (possibly at an embarrassing moment), Adobe thinks that you need to make this a deliberate act, rather than something you just 'knock' by accident. So if you try to allocate an individual single key - which you'd think that you ought to be able to do - then you get a message saying that at a bare minimum, you need to use the Alt key as well as what you've chosen.
You can't even cheat and make it a favourite, because that won't work in MV (even if you could get it to work in a script at all, that is).
So, welcome to the Adobe Nanny State. See? I
said you wouldn't like it!

怎么取消或者屏蔽firefox的快捷键？我在使用其他软件时的很多快捷键都被firefox浏览器给占用了，麻烦得很，所以想取消那些快捷键。
在firefox上安装了一个shortcut的插件，也只能编辑快捷键而不能完全删除！！！！

Hello,
I will try my best to guess the issue you are reporting. I don't speak Mandarin and I used Google Translate to guess what the issue is. So, if I got that wrong, I do apologize.
You are looking to disable the Firefox shortcuts - all of them. And you want to do this because you think these shortcuts are blocking a Firefox plugin you are using. Is that correct?
您想禁用Firefox的快捷方式 - 所有这些。并且要做到这一点，因为你觉得这些快捷方式阻止你使用的是Firefox插件。这是否正确？
谢谢

Go to system preferences/language & text/input sources and check the box for Keyboard Viewer. Then select Keyboard Viewer from the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen. It will show all the special characters you can make when you press the alt and alt + shift keys.

Are the keyboard shortcuts customizable?

Just wondering if it's possible to customize the keyboard shortcuts, though I highly doubt it's possible...

Yes and no. You have to hack.
I put an article on my blog on how to swap the 0 and 9 keys on the numeric keypad in a painless way, but to do more you have to dig into XML files. Look for Make Zero The Reject Key Again in the Aperture Tips section.

How to deactivate the Keyboard shortcuts (QuickTime PlugIn)

Hi,
Is there a way, to Disable the Keyboard Shortcuts when using the QuickTime PlugIn within IE and/or Firefox ?

Are you viewing or are you serving these QuickTime files?
The QuickTime Control Panel offers options to run in "kiosk" mode so that the viewed file can't be saved via the Pro upgrade. Each user account has their own settings.
To prevent the keyboard option in the QuickTime movie controller from appearing in a Web based file you would set the object and embed tags to use kioskmode="true". This removes it from the controller menu and stops drag and drop capture but will not stop a determined viewer from obtaining a local copy of your file.
Other QuickTime keyboard options also exist and many people don't know about them.
For example (once the QuickTime file has "focus" in the browser) the arrow keys adjust the movie volume (up/down) and the spacebar starts and stops playback.

Where are the keyboard shortcuts listed?

all of them - does anyone know? when i go to view>keyboard shorcuts 75% of them are bland - where are the ones that are default? i bought the sandee cohen book and NO Keyboard chart is in it - seems like a big oversight to me
thanks

> Bob - thanks, i'll work on that when i'm not rushing on a job (as i am now)
The few minutes it takes to install the plugin is a good investment. You
can search for features (like type "scale") and it will show you all the
keyboard shortcuts associated with that feature.

What are the keyboard shortcut for aligning objects?

Hello guys,
I know this is a simple question. However, I cannot find a quick answer. I see people using Actions - is this the only way?
Thanks!

It's not the only way. But it's the only way using keyboard shortcuts.
Pretty mediocre, indeed.

What is/are the keyboard shortcut if I want to pull down a menu item?

What is the keyboard command to pull down a finder menu item? Say I want
to browse the finder menus, without a mouse?

Although that's listed in the document, It does nothing on my machine and it is enabled in Keyboard Shortcuts. So, if you know the steps to get it working, that would be appreciated. Wired, extended Apple keyboard.
EDIT: Need CONTROLfnF2, which requires two hands, to make it work. IMO, it's much asier to just use the mouse.

What are the keyboard shortcuts to display on external monitor

Hi
how can i get my laptop to export the image to an external monitor?
I have a MB Pro, and have tried DVI to HDMI direct cable, the supplied DVI-D cable connected to VGA cable and no luck.
the screen on my laptop is flickering and I want to use the external monitor.
Any advice appreciated.
Tks

The typical method is to just plug it in.
If you are using Mini DisplayPort, the adapter must be right at the Mini DisplayPort end, you cannot convert to VGA halfway down the cable.
DVI and Mini DVI provide computer-generated VGA at the computer connector, in the bar at one end and the four pins around it, plus one more from the top row of the grid.
The biggest problem with HDMI is that the display must be "paying attention" and ready to answer when the Mac queries for the name and capabilities.
If your internal display works at all, this can tell you whether the external display has been detected:

Why are the keyboard shortcuts for new window and new tab (N) and (W) instead of (W) and (T) when I right-click on bookmarks in my toolbar?

If I right click on a link in a page, the context menu allows me to open a new tab if I hit t on my keyboard and a new window if I hit w. In the bookmarks menu, these shortcuts change to w and n respectively. Hitting t results in deletion of the bookmark. Can this be changed so it is consistent with the in-page context menu?

You can middle-click a link to open the link in a new tab.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

Where are the Keyboard Shortcuts for Acrobat X?

In Acrobat 9 I could delete a page by keying Alt - D - X. I could insert pages by keying Alt - D- N - F. Can I not do this kind of thing in Acrobat X?
George Sullivan

Dave, thanks for the answer. It is quite helpful. I just wonder why Adobe chose to change the menu in such a way that negates all previous habits that have been built. Acrobat, to me, is primarily a "paper" manager. And to the extent that is complicated it makes my work more difficult.
Check out my other problem post with Acrobat X. It is titled "Default Page Size Not Retained". This one is causing a lot of inconvenience also.

How do I set the keyboard shortcut for zoom tool to be r-clicking the mouse?

I want to have the r-click of my mouse be the zoom tool like in Quark Xpress. Can I make the Z shortcut to choosing the Zoom tool instead a r-click? I know how to get into keyboard shortcuts - just dont know what to type in for the new shortcut to make it a r-click. right now its 2 steps to zoom rather than in quark 1. not that I want to go back. lol.
also, while were talking about migration differences and extra steps, is there a way I can hide guides and set overprint preview in one step? (this is something I do often and was just a simple F7 in quark)
so these are just 2 things that take 2 steps in ID but one in quark. not that I want to go back. lol

OK, I've been doing this since CS2 with no need for a script. To hide guides and show preview...
1) Go to 'Keyboard Shortcuts'
2) Go to 'Product Area - Tools'. Yes, you'd think it would be in Views! But the buttons for this is at the bottom of the Tool Bar.
3) Go to 'Commands: Toggle view setting between default and preview'
4) Click your cursor inside 'New Shortcut' and hit the key you want or type it in. I choose the unused F2 key
5) Click the 'Assign' button and you are set. Hit the key to switch back and forth.
As for your mouse Zoom, use Power Zoom as described above or just hold down the Alt/Option button in 'Hand' mode and use the scroll wheel to zoom in and out. Not one step but it works!
Now you won't miss Quark at all!

The keyboard shortcut that turns an exclamation mark into an apostrophe no longer works in iOS 6. How can I restore that shortcut?

the keyboard shortcut that turns an exclamation mark into an apostrophe no longer works in iOS 6. How can I restore that shortcut?

Well, I for one really hate when they change this stuff. They get us used to doing it one way for years and then they change it. Why? Really, seriously, truly......WHY?
In fact, I originally noticed it had changed and then when I'd hit it, I thought it required me to touch both so I ended up with an apostrophe but then also a letter "l". I just left commas everywhere I went for a while cuz it ticked me off so bad I just rebelled.
In ios5 it was actually faster because it's the same move and time involved, but without the extra "slide". So, in essence, Apple went backwards.
Nice, eh?

I've just found the keyboard shortcut in Garageband for 'copy region' had changed from cmdC to ctrlC. I went to Preferences and clicked Restore Defaults for shortcuts. Now its altC . How can I get it back to the original commands.

When I use find file http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/30073/find-file (which does tend to find files that "Finder" can't), it's not coming up with any other itunes library files that have been modified in the past week, which I know it would have been - unfortunately, I don't have a very recent backup of the hard drive. It would be a few months old so it wouldn't have the complete library on it....any ideas? I'm wondering if restarting the computer might help but have been afraid to do so in case it would make it harder to recover anything...I was looking at this thread https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4211589?start=0&tstart=0 in the hopes that it might have a helpful suggestion but it's definitely a different scenario.

How can I find and disable Page Down in the Keyboard Shortcuts menu?

I often accidentally hit Page Down because it's right beside my arrow keys. It seems to switch to the next symbol in the library which is something I never under any circumstances would want to do. How do I disable this incredibly annoying keyboard shortcut? I can't find it anywhere in the unsearchable rat's nest that is the Keyboard Shortcut menu.

Aha, thank you for drawing my attention to the export html button, it does make it possible to search those keyboard shortcuts.
In my case, View -> Go to -> Next was set to nothing. More oddly, the words "Page Down" don't appear anywhere at all in the generated file, and when I set another random command (Zoom In) to use Page Down it didn't warn of a conflict. Hitting page down zoomed in instead of switching me to another symbol, and when I cleared the shortcut from zoom in it went back to swapping between symbols. I guess I'll have to set something benign to use the page down key.
Bizarre. I guess this must be a bug in CS6?
