HT3399 FUNCTION KEYS TO STANDARD KEYS

Hi, I am trying to play ww2 Online but i can't communicate with teammates or go through basic training becasue my function keys can't be changed to standard function keys. I have a late 2009 iMac 21.5 in and running on 10.7.5. I have a microsoft digital media pro keyboard.

Then you need to speak to Microsoft support.

  • Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys

    Does anyone know where this option is in Snow Leopard?

    I guess the computer is not recognizing your keyboard as having a function key.
    I'm not sure if it's a bug in Snow leopard or if the keyboard needs a new Snow leopard compatible driver which would have to be provided by the manufacturer. try searching for it.
    if a system does not recognize a keyboard as having a function key it will not display an option to use F-keys as standard keys. I have a white mac pro keyboard at work without a function key and I don't have that option on my mac at work.

  • How to use standard function keys as custom keys

    how to use standard function keys as custom keys.
    i have encountered that problem while developing a screen, there i'm supposed to use standard function key F2 ( which actually meant for choose) for clearing the screen fields where the cursor is present and f1 for saving data that entered in screen fields, etc...
    kindly help me out.

    Hi ,
    Solution to use SAP reserve function keys F1 .. F4 (mostly this requirement comes up for RF screens) can be acheived by assigning your new Function code using the Menu path Utilities --> F key Consistency in the Menu Painter (SE41) . Once you assign your cutom function code to the standard Fn keys the only remaining step is to make sure that you set a curson on any of the field on sceen by using the Key Word "SET CURSOR" .
    If you dont use the key word SET CURSOR in the PBO of the screen then you might not see any response for F4.
    Thanks

  • Keyboard "use F-keys as standard function keys" setting gets reset on system restart

    Hi all,
    I have set in system preferences -> keyboard to "use f1, f2 etc. keys as standard function keys" or rather I want to keep this setting set but unfortunately this gets reset on each restart-
    I'm wondering what happened, this used to work initially with Lion. I may have set somewhere something that resets this on each start but I have no clue what that might be.
    Machine iMac mid 2011, keyboard Apple alu keyboard with cable (pre-Lion layout).

    Thanks BDAqua...sure looked like the function had disappeared over time and appreciate the confirmaion. Hard to understand why a function like that would be taken away. The program I run uses function keys f3,f7,f11 and f23(shifted f11) and I have all working okay by turning them off in keyboard and mouse menus. The f23 is causing issued in that when I use shifted f11 the screen scrolls upward instead of passing along the f23 function. Looks like I will have to work around this since the operating system will not allow the function keys to just work "standard"...thanks by the way for the welcome...!!

  • HT3399 Function keys vs volume keys

    I used to be able to use the "Show all windows" + "Show desktop" shortcuts and the volume keys all with one touch. Now with Mavericks it seems you have to choose, can't have both?? So frustrating. Any suggestions/workarounds?

    I guess that's my criticism – if you select "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys" it essentially disables one-touch volume control. You have to choose between one-touch Mission Control and one-touch Audio, which seems insane. Especially as new MacBooks only have one Function key on the far left side, making one-handed volume control impossible.
    Am I missing something – is there a way to 'program' each of the F keys individually?
    My solution for now is to program Option D for "desktop view" and Option W for "application windows" – so at least I can do it one-handed.
    It sounds really nitpicky but this is the kind of intuitive stuff I thought Apple was good at!

  • Use Function Keys as Standard Function Keys checkbox missing

    Is there a reason the "Use Function Keys as Standard Function Keys" checkbox is missing in my Keyboard/Mouse settings?

    Just go to the Keyboard shortcuts tab and uncheck the items assigned to the function keys or assign them to different keys.

  • Third Party keyboard- possible to "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys"?

    I've got a 3rd party Anker slim mac keyboard (http://www.amazon.com/Anker%C2%AE-Bluetooth-Wireless-Keyboard-Tablets/dp/B005ONM DYE).
    I really need to be able to use the F7 and F8 keys for my audio program (Pro Tools 10), but they always do the consumer-keys actions (rewind/play in itunes). Everywhere I look says to go to System Preferences and select the "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys" button, but since I have a third-party keyboard, that option does not exist. Using an applescript to try and do it anyway doen't work either. The closest I've gotten is using the freeware FunctionFlip, but that requires me to press and hold the Fn key to use them as function keys. I don't want that.
    Is there ANY way, official or third party, free or paid, that I can get this to work without buying a new keyboard?
    Thanks!

  • The function of the F keys at the top of my keyboard no longer work as they used to. How do I restore their old function?

    The function of the F keys at the top of my keyboard no longer work as they used to. The actions they do no longer correspond to the symbols that are printed on them. For example, the volume buttons no longer control volume and now change the display to full-screen instead, and the brightness buttons don't do anything at all.
    This started today and I'm finding it very irritating. I checked in System Preferences and didn't find any obvious way to turn most of them back to what they used to do.
    Help?

    In System Preferences > Keyboard uncheck Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys.

  • Default Standard Text Key or Standard Text to first Operation of Order

    I would like to have a standard text key or standard text defaulted for the first operation of an order created via IW31 of certain order type.
    For example we have an order type called CORR for corrective orders.  When ever there is a break fix, the user would create a CORR order via IW31.  When this order type is used I want the first operation to have a predefined Standard text key defaulted.  In this case we was our first operation to have a safety message and precautions listed.
    This would work similar to a planned order that calls from a task list and has text in the task list.
    I did some review and testing of the "Assign Standard Texts for Short Messages to Order Types", but as I understand it, this only works for sending message and not including text on the operation.
    Is what I want to do possible?  Or would it make more sense to use an exit like IWO10020, Maintenance order: Automatically include task list .  I guess I could create a general task list and use that in this exit for all CORR order types.

    For the scenario that you are referring to, i believe this would be the option that would be flexible. Yes, you will have to little bit of custom development for this  and i don't see any standard functionality to default the standard text on the first operation for specific order types. You should be able to attach a task list where its planning plant differs with that of the Order plant.
    There are much more simpler options available, if you are open to using a  different work center(You could default the Standard text key on the work center), if you are open to create a separate transaction for this order type (you could default the Standard text by creating a transaction variant through SHDO), If you are using GuiXT widely in your organization you could write a small simple script to default the Standard text for this order type.

    Since installing LTR 5.4, which I've now upgraded to 5.6, I've encountered repeated slowness and malfunctions in operations, especially when using the Compare View function and the Tab key to open and close the right and left side panels.  Such problems never arose during two years of using LTR-4 and nothing else has changed on my computer.  I have a pretty simple system with only a few plug-ins, which are usually not in operation.  I have 12GB of RAM in my Windows 7 PC.  I could illustrate these problems with screen shots if you would tell me how to submit screen shots.  Otherwise I will try to describe the problems in words.
    The problem is clearly cumulative, growing worse as usage time passes.  Compare View feature gradually slows down and eventually seems to choke as my work session proceeds. If I Exit LTR and re-enter and start all over, things will work normally for maybe 30 minutes, but then the Compare View feature begins to become very slow to respond.   In a recent example with my screen full of thumbnails in Library mode I highlighted two images to compare. LTR started to open the Compare View screen by first having the top row of thumbnails disappear to be replaced by the "SELECT" and "CANDIDATE" words in their spaces  (but no images), but Compare View never succeeded in gaining control of the screen. After some seconds the top row of thumbnails reasserted its position and the Compare View windows disappeared. But LTR kept trying to bring them back. Again the top row of thumbnails would go away, Select and candidate would reappear, try again, and give up. This went on for at least 2-3 minutes before I tried to choose File and Exit, but even that did not initially want to respond. It doesn't like to accept other commands when it's trying to open Compare View. Finally it allowed me to exit.
    To experiment I created a new catalog of 1100 images.  After 30-40 minutes, the Compare View function began to operate very slowly. With left and right side panels visible and two thumbnails highlighted, hitting Compare View can take half a minute before the two mid-size  images open in their respective SELECT and CANDIDATE windows. When the side panels are open and two images are in the Select/Candidate spaces, hitting the Tab button to close the side panels produces a very delayed response--25-30 seconds to close them, a few more seconds to enlarge the two images to full size. To reverse the process (i.e., to recall the two side panels), hitting Tab would make the two sides of the screen go black for up to a minute, with no words visible. Eventually the info fields in the panels would open up.
    I also created a new user account and imported a folder of 160 images. After half an hour Compare View began mis-placing data.  (I have a screen shot to show this.)  CANDIDATE appears on the left side of SELECT, whereas it should be on the right. The accompanying camera exposure data appears almost entirely to the left of the mid-screen dividing line. Although the Candidate and Select headings were transposed, the image exposure data was not, but the data for the image on the right was almost entirely to the left of the line dividing the screen in two.
    Gurus in The Lightroom Forum have examined Task Manager data showing Processes running and Performance indicators and they see nothing wrong.  I could also send screen shots of this data.
    At this point, the only way I can process my images is to work 30-40 minutes and then shut down everything, exit, and re-start LTR.  This is not normal.  I hope you can find the cause, and then the solution.  If you would like to see my screen shots, tell me how to submit them.

  • Arrow keys and enter key not functioning in Firefox 3.6 when viewing PDF

    I'm using Adobe Reader 9.3.0.
    I have a web application that displays PDFs (using Adobe Reader) in a browser.  The PDF is loaded onto the page inside an IFRAME.  In addition to the IFRAME containing a PDF, the page also includes several forms, text fields, etc. For the most part this is working fine.  However, I have a glitch when using this in Firefox 3.6. I'm finding that certain keyboard events are being lost and I strongly suspect that they are being swallowed by Adobe Reader.  When I place focus on an HTML text field and press enter key or arrow keys, I do not get the appropriate key events.  If I run the exact same test without the PDF IFRAME these key events work correctly, but as soon as I load the PDF into the IFRAME they do not.  I believe the primary key event that gets lost is the keydown event.  I do get the keyup event.
    Again, the events work correctly up until I load the PDF onto the page.
    I've verified that this error does not occur in Firefox 3.5 and 3.0.
    Here is a testcase to reproduce this:
