How to change keyboard shortcut for cycle through open tabs in PS and AI CC 2014

I would love to set my own keyboard shortcuts for cycling through open tabs in PS and AI 2014 on OS X. I found out that this can be achieved with ctrl+tab in PS, but I couldn't manage to make any of the suggestions in the forum work for AI. As said, I would like to set a more "standard" shortcut like alt+cmd+arrow-keys for both of the apps. If that shouldn't be possible, does anyone know a shortcut in AI CC 2014?
Many thanks!
Amadeus

Thanks! The shortcut can be set like this in AI, although all key combinations I would want to use are not allowed. Too bad. But anyways, thank you very much for the tip!
cmd+~ is not an option for me, I guess, since the swiss/german keyboard layout has no dedicated tilde key.
So, I have a working shortcut in PS (ctrl+tab / of which I still don't know how to change, if possible at all) and thanks to you, I can now set one in AI as well. Unfortunately, I can not set it to be identical as in PS, since the "cmd" key needs to be included in AI's shortcut assignment dialogue, but I guess, this is as good as it gets.

How do I change the keyboard shortcut for Cycle through open documents in PS CC for Mac?

Sorry to bug the community with such a seemingly inconsequential task, but I am seriously tired of using the awkward default keyboard shortcut for cycling through open docs in PS. I'd like to change it to what I am used in in Chrome, which is Cmd+Option+[left] or {right} arrow keys. I noticed this is not a command listed in the in keyboard shortcuts, for whatever reason. Where on Earth can I change this?
If it is not possible to do it by default, is there a plug-in or a change to the code that will allow this basic functionality?
Thanks again guys and gals!

As far as I know, you can't. It's "hard wired" in. Not even Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts is allowed to change it.
However I did find this tip:
Anyway i never found tabs in Adobe application useful, instead i prefer the old school method: simply switch off tabs feature via illustrator/ preferences/ user interface/ open documents as tabs. Then in Mac preferences panel, under keyboard, just search for the “focus on next application window” field (under menu, keyboard and text) and assign a shortcut if the default option doesn't fit you. And there is now you can easily switch between open documents!.
The best part of this is that it can be used in all mac applications, not only Adobe ones. And remember, if you want this working on Indesign, Photoshop, etc be aware of first switch off the tab features so that the system could “see” multiple documents opened not only one single tabbed document.

Change Keyboard Shortcuts for sound volume

I want to change the keyboard shortcut for changing the system sound/audio volume. There isn't an option in the Keyboard Shortcuts system preference pane. Does anyone know how to do this?

Thanks for helping me think through this. My (likely circa 2001) iKey keyboard didn't come with software (at least that I would still use). My initial guess was that I programmed the keys through FastScripts, but quitting that didn't help.
So, I looked back through the archives at MacOSXHints.com and found two options: I hadn't installed KeyRemap4Macbook, but I was still using ControllerMate. I had completely forgotten about that. Thanks for helping jog my memory.

Change keyboard shortcut for "Find"

The default keyboard shortcut for the "find" function is Cmd-Opt-F. As you know, for virtually every other Mac app (if not all Mac apps), the shortcut for "find" is simply Cmd-F. In iTunes, though, Cmd-F turns the visualiser full-screen mode on and off. I never use the visualiser, and decades of Mac use have hard-wired my fingers for Cmd-F to be "find." I know that there is a method in System Preferences by which to change or assign associations between drop-down menu items and keyboard shortcuts, but there is no menu item for "find" so that method seems like a dead end.
Is there a way to replace Cmd-Opt-F with Cmd-F in iTunes?
Help, please!!!

to be quite honest i dont no how exactly to do this,
i just know it can be done. i have had no problem
opening .plist files in vi-make sure you are in root
account for system files.
They (the .plist files) don't seem particularly readable in vi -- they seem to contain a lot of binary content. In earlier versions of OS X they were plain text and easily edited.....
Solaris huh? how powerful
is that? i dont know much about solaris . . . . like
to try it though. recommendations?
It's a more "traditional" Unix, meaning that it's very powerful, fairly bulletproof, very configurable, and pretty obtuse if you're not familiar with it. I like my Mac better!

Change keyboard shortcuts for zoom

Hi
When looking at the keyboard shortcuts for MAC, the 100% zoom is down as command alt '0', yet it is showing in the dropdown list as 'n'?
Is there a way of changing the shortcuts. Previously the 100% zoom was simply command (apple) '0', which is now fit to page.
Can anyone help with how to change the short cuts please?
Cheers

There was a change to a bizarre shortcut of Fn+n for 'View > 100%' (equivalent to the previous 'View > Actual Pixels' which had shortcut Cmd+1) when Retina compatibility was introduced a few months ago.

Keyboard shortcut for navigating through individual windows

Is there a keyboard shortcut associated with moving through different windows open at the same time....?
We all know about using the Ctrl + Tab keys for moving through individual tabs. What about moving through individual windows?
Thanks in advance!

Hi, there used to be such a shortcut before Safari 4 ! ( 'apple' + '<'s no longer present in latest Safari !?
I now use the Exposé function (Application windows) to browse through my open windows.

How to enable keyboard shortcuts for configuration entry point?

Hello All,
In my process model, I have a configuration entry point sequence (sequence). I can able to select the corresponding entry from the menu bar ie. configure --> options (for eg). Now I need to have a keyboard shortcut for the same. In my case if I press (for eg) ctrl+w, the configuration entry point sequence must be called.
Note - I have to do this using .NET programmatically.
Is there any way I can incorporate this mechanism...?
Thanks
Arun

Hello Arun,
At this time there is not anyway to customize the keyboard shortcut keys for menu items you add to the TestStand sequence editor. R&D is looking into implementing this in a future version of TestStand. I'll pass along your feedback to them, and let them know there are others interrested in this feature.

Safari shortcuts dont work for navigating through open tabs

I read that Control-Tab or Control-Shift-Tab are shortcuts that navigate left and right through open windows in Safari.
I also ready that CMD-Shift-left arrow navigates to the left. But only moves once, and if you select same with right arrow, nothing happens.
Under Settings Application shortcuts, there are no setting setup for CMD-Shift-left arrow so I guess that this is 'built in'?
I would like to navigate using keyboard shortcuts left and right through open tabs in Safari. Please can you advise as I am stuck with the above and they dont help me....
Thank you.

Thanks! The shortcut can be set like this in AI, although all key combinations I would want to use are not allowed. Too bad. But anyways, thank you very much for the tip!

Where can I find a list of the keyboard shortcuts for editing a Wiki page, on Windows and Mac?

I tried searching in Help, but I haven't been able to find anything. I'd like to get a list of the keyboard shortcuts that work while editing a wiki page in the Mac Server Wiki running on Lion.
When accessing Lion Server Wiki from a Mac, some of the usual suspects work: cmd+B for bold, cmd+} to indent, etc. When accessing the Lion Server Wiki from Windows, though, I can't find an equivalent keyboard shortcut for the indent / unindent. Where can I find a list of all of them?
Thanks!

How to disable keyboard shortcut for Type-And-Transfer

Hi,
I'm trying to create a macro in Excel that I want to use the ctrl+shft+h keyboard shortcut. However, Lenovo's Type-and-Transfer tool has hijacked that shortcut so everytime I try to use the shortcut within Excel it launches the Type-and-Transfer tool. I've looked everywhere and cannot, for the life of me, figure out how to disable this keyboard shortcut from launching the Type-and-Transfer tool. Anybody have any idea?
Thanks in advance,
jd

Hi,
here is what I would check in:
Registry:
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\IBM
- HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\LENOVO
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\IBM
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Lenovo
<sorry as I don't havea system with this shortcut type I cannot find the exact same key combination>
My second thought is going more in the direction of an application, that is called Keyboard Customizer
Try this one, if that will fit your request.
Let me know any update, that you can give on this situation.
Cheers

How to change keyboard shortcuts

Hi everyone
can anyone help me to modify the keyboard shortcuts in Indesign CS4. When I create a new set in Edit Menu Keybord shortcuts and try to change Cmd+H to hide frame edges instead of hide indesign its not happening. can anyone tell me what is correct way to change the shortcut.
Thanks
Azeem

What's the default for hide edges on Mac? It's Ctrl + H which would in most circumstances lead me to think that it would be Cmd + H on Mac, but I think you are running into a problem with the OS using that key combo and intercepting the keystrokes.
Edit: that should have been Ctrl + H on Windows.

Is there any keyboard shortcuts for navigating through Fireworks layers? Yes there are!

Since I couldn't find a way to post a reply on the original question I decided to create my own discussion on this.
The "alt" key is your best friend when working with layers.
Alt click on show/hide, lock/unlock, and expand and collapse arrows will apply to all.
Example: Lets say you have 20 layers, all unlocked, it is starting to become extremely difficult to select just a single item from a single layer. If you alt click any layer, all your layers will become locked, then you can easily just unselect the layer that has your content in it. Alt clicking again unlocks all your layers. (*note - sometimes sub-layers remain locked even when the parent is unlocked).
Again this works with the show/hide and the expand and collapse toggles as well.
In addition I wrote a command and assigned a shotcut key to it that lets you do several very useful layer interactions with one shortcut key.
My command lets you:
1) Copy all your selected objects (regardless of what layer they are in),
2) Creates a new layer
3) Opens the name layer dialog so that you can name your new layer
4) Paste al your selected objects into your new layer.
You can find this comman here with instructions how to install it and how to set up a shortcut key for it). *Note this command is used with John Dunnings (johndunning.com) layers command.
http://fireworksinstructionalvideos.com/commands/NewLayerCloseOthers.zip
Video here: http://fireworksinstructionalvideos.com/tutorials/index.html

Some other commands that can make it easier to work with layers:
Frame and Layer Utilites: contains a number of commands for working with layers, like hiding the current layer in all other states but the current one, or moving the layer up or down in the panel. Any of the commands can be assigned keyboard shortcuts. http://johndunning.com/fireworks/about/FrameLayerUtils
QuickFire: lets you quickly match a layer by typing part of its name and then hiding it, locking it, etc. http://johndunning.com/fireworks/about/QuickFire
Solo Selection: hides all elements except the selected ones, so you can work on just a part of the document. Run it again to make everything visible again. http://johndunning.com/fireworks/about/SoloCommand
I'm also working on a command that will you navigate the elements in a doc via the keyboard, which should be ready soon.

Is there a keyboard shortcut for cycling/toggling between layers in Illustrator CC?

I'm trying to improve my workflow by finding/customizing a key command to cycle through my layers panel without clicking in Illustrator CC. In Photoshop, this command is super easy: opt + [ or ], while moving a layer above the selected one is command + [ or ]. Does anyone know if this is possible in CC? I'm reading it was in CS6 as ctrl + [ or ], but that isn't working for me.

by cycling, do you mean "highlighting" ("activating") layers?
