How to find what a keyboard shortcut does

It's not just Lion, but still there and annoying. One particular shortcut, ⇧⌘B, does not work in applications such as Xcode (Build Results) or Nisus Writer Pro (Add Bookmark). It seems to me that there is some global shortcut which is blocking this shortcut, but it doesn't appear to do anything. How do I find out what is defining this shortcut? I've looked in the Keyboard Shortcuts section of System Preferences, but don't see anything that defines it. Is there somewhere else I can look?

Useful page, but it doesn't really help. The only occurrence of shift-command-B that I found was in Keynote help, for send to back, but that's another application that it doesn't work in. What I am looking for is a way to find out what has hijacked this keyboard shortcut, apparently globally. Is there some debugging mode to see which application is intercepting it?

  • How do I customize Firefox keyboard shortcuts without using an add-on?

    I want to modify shortcuts '''without using add-ons, extensions, or plug-ins'''. In other words, I would like to know how to modify a keyboard shortcut in a way that does '''not '''involve installing a plug-in, extension, or add-on. So, an answer that states that I should install this extension, or that plug-in is a useless answer and will be rated unhelpful as will indicate that you didn't read the question.
    Again: How do I modify a keyboard shortcut '''WITHOUT '''installing any add-ons? For example, how would I change the homepage shortcut from Alt+Home to something else, without installing any add-ons?

    I actually made this happen a few versions back, but I don't remember how I did it. I have looked through the about:config entries and can't find it. I looked through the ...xul keybindings and did not find it. I know it can (or recently could) be done, but I don't remember how.
    The problem with the existing shortcut is that on a laptop, the Home button is frequently sharing space with another key. It is a hassle to have to access Home and the alt key when accessing Home is itself an operation.
    The problem with add-ons is that I cannot, in a reasonably quick momentary glance, determine their safety now, nor in the future as they are updated. Since Mozilla does not certify add-ons as safe, I prefer to avoid them.
    Other programs don't present such difficulties with simple things like modifying shortcuts. It's pretty standard for that to be accessible from a Customize submenu in one of the main drop-downs.

  • HT1338 Can anyone tell me how to find what OS I'm using on the Mac? Tiger or Leopard? Also, how do I update from 10.6.8 to the latest version?

    Can anyone tell me how to find what OS I'm using on the Mac?
    Tiger or Leopard?
    Also, how do I update from 10.6.8 to the latest version?

    Go to the Apple menu and select "About This Mac". You will get a window similar to this one -
    You current OS X version number will be shown as I've marked.
    OS X 10.4.x is Tiger, 10.5.x is Leopard, 10.6.x is Snow Leopard, 10.7.x is Lion, and 10.8.x is Mountain Lion.
    Whether or not you can go to the latest OS X version depends upon your hardware -
    You will need to purchase the retail set for the OS X version you want; there is no pint in getting and installing any intermediate versions. Once the retail version has been installed, you can update it to the latest release for that version via download updater.

    Thanks for the question Sandoss. This is something that we all come across at sometime.
    Thanks & regards, Sumit Agrawal
    The lack of this feature is an inexcusable oversight for an enterprise management product.  They have some serious lightweights making design decisions on the SCOM team. 5 thumbs down. 
    BTW the answer is probably LOTS of stuff. Literally 100's of workflows are running on any server. 
    The following OpsMgr DB query will list all running monitors on a server. Change the name of @srv. I think this works pretty well.  I'd like some feedback if something is missing.
    DECLARE @srv varchar(30)
    SET @srv = 'your name here'
    SELECT mon.displayName as monitor, bme.FullName,bme.DisplayName as object,
    case
        when s.HealthState = 1 then 'healthy'
        when s.HealthState = 2 then 'Warning'
        when s.HealthState = 3 then 'Critical'
        else 'N/A'
    end as Health
    FROM state AS s WITH (NOLOCK)
    left join BaseManagedEntity as bme WITH (NOLOCK) on s.basemanagedentityid = bme.basemanagedentityid
    left join dbo.MonitorView Mon WITH (NOLOCK) on Mon.ID = s.monitorid
    where
    bme.FullName like '%' + @srv + '%'
    and s.HealthState <> 0
    and mon.IsInternalRollupMonitor = 0
    and mon.IsExternalRollupMonitor = 0
    order by bme.DisplayName, mon.displayName

  • How do I export/import keyboard shortcuts to a text file

    How do I export/import keyboard shortcuts to a text file?
    It would be nice to export them, edit and/or add to them in a text editor on my iMac, then import them back into iPhone and iPad.

    You can backup the bookmarks to a file, then copy that file to the new computer and import them, for details see [[Backing up and restoring bookmarks]].
    You can copy more than just the bookmarks. The user data, such as bookmarks and passwords, are stored in the profile folder. You can copy the data manually by copying the contents of the profile folder, for details see [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup Profile backup - MozillaZine Knowledge Base] or [[Backing up your information]].
    There are some add-ons and utilities that can make this process easier. The first one is the [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2109/ FEBE] add-on which can be used to copy a profile. Another option is the free [http://mozbackup.jasnapaka.com/ MozBackup] utility.

I notice the Account field is missing my email account. and the SEND button is grey-ed out. but my email account is already set up in the Hub.
    Is there something I forgot to set?

  • How do I create a keyboard shortcut for a nested finder menu item?

    Specifically I'm trying to create a keyboard shortcut for Finder>Services>Mail>Send File.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    pmasitti,
    Under System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts, click on the "+" sign. From the drop-down menu choose Application: Finder, Menu Title: "Send File" (without the quotes), Keyboard Shortcut: whatever.
    Close system System Preferences and quit the Finder for the change to take effect. You can easily quit and relaunch the Finder from the Apple Menu > Force Quit. Select Finder and click on the Relaunch button.
    For the action to complete, select the Finder item before pressing your keyboard short cut.
    Worked for me... good luck!

  • How do I prevent fullscreen to create its own space or how do I create a keyboard shortcut to such a fullscreen space

    Hello,
        In Mountain Lion, I could select from the dock icon the Options -> Assign To -> This Desktop to link back a fullscreen app to one desktop which allowed me to have a direct shortcut to my fullscreen app, e.g. ⌘3. In Mavericks this does not work and I cannot find how to disable the new space for fullscreen app nor how to create a keyboard shortcut for switch directly to that app once it's in fullscreen.
        Any help would be much appreciated, I would hate to have to downgrade back to Mountain Lion.
    Cheers,

    The most typical solution for enterprise sites is to store their users credentials in an LDAP store such as Oracle Internet Directory (OID) or MS Active Directory. LDAP is an industry standard for extremely fast directory services over IP network infrastructure (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightweight_Directory_Access_Protocol).
    In turn some sites store their user credentials in databases tables. Of course databases can be configured for fast lookups too, but it is a database centric solution where LDAP is designed to work across networks and is ideal for servers as a result which live and breath on the network.
    In case of Java EE applications and especially those written in ADF, the use of these services isn't written into the application, but rather the application delegates this responsibility of configuring and providing these services back to the Java EE server. So for example Edwin's post is about configuring a WLS "security provider" to lookup user's info from the database, and here is another blog I wrote for MS Active Directory a while back (http://one-size-doesnt-fit-all.blogspot.com.au/2008/12/configuring-wls-with-ms-active.html). The main advantage here is you don't have every application baking its own solution, rather WLS provides a standard well tested way to configure the security lookups.
    In terms of writing (i.e. creating users) to the security store over reading from it, indeed you need to build your own code. Ramandeep Singh Nanda has a nice post on doing this with OID through Oracle's OPSS: http://ramannanda.blogspot.com.au/2011/09/opss-adf-security-utility.html
    Finally what sites like Amazon and Facebook do aren't necessarily good examples to follow as they're application's requirements are typically far in excess of a typical enterprise site, and in turn have often written bespoke solutions to deal with their scalability and distribution requirements. I dare say LDAP is a good choice for 99% of enterprises.

  • How do I setup a keyboard shortcut for an item in the Services menu?

    In every Application, under the application menu is a "Services" folder. I would like to be able to setup a keyboard shortcut for one of these services (namely Skype).
    I am a heavy user of the "Services > Skype > Call" command and I would love to have a keyboard shortcut for it.
    I went to System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts, clicked on the plus sign to create a new shortcut (all applications) and entered "Services…Skype…Call" and assigned it to a keyboard command (shift-F1).

  • Double Click on Keyboard shortcut does not work

    I want to change a keyboard shortcut. I have a Norwegian keyboard and the key combination for change active window in an application (multiple mail messages or Word documents) is not available. The Keyboard shortcut is set to ' - on my keyboard the ' character is <. The key combination < does not work unless I change layouts to a US keyboard. Keyboard shortcuts says that a double click on the shortcut will allow me to change the combination. This does not happen. I get an error bing instead. Any ideas of what is going on and how to change a shortcut in Leopard. I think this worked in Tiger. I have tried a hardwired as well as my bluetooth keyboard.

    Solved this one - you have to click on the key combination itself and not in the text area that describes the key combination.
