HT5161 Is there a keyboard shortcut to go directly to this search bar in the help menu?

I find myself using the search bar under "help" a lot in several applications. I was wondering if there was a keyboard shortcut to go directly to this searchbar, just like how cmd+space takes you to the spotlight searchbar.

Add the shortcut in System Preferences
On my system, Lion 10.7.5 (italian) that is the default

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to move from a Finder search bar to results?

    Is there a keyboard shortcut to move from a search bar in the top right of a Finder window, to the results below?

    In OS X 10.5.8's Finder, if I hit the "tab" key while the window's search bar is selected, it just cycles through the toolbar (back button, forward button, etc.).
    In 10.6.2's Finder, if I hit the "tab" key while the window's search bar is selected, it will eventually get to highlighting the files in the results list. But this only happens if I search from the universal Spotlight menu bar, and then "Show All" to launch those results in Finder.
    If I open a new Finder window, and then search from that window's search bar, the "tab" key will only get me as far as Search "This Mac" in the search filtering bar.
    I can confirm that i see exact same behavior as you in all these situations. I was going to suggest tabbing too but decided to check if it actually works first and ran into the same issues. I don't believe there is any other method to do what you want as this one does not work.

    You switch keyboards by going to the " flag" menu at the top right of the screen.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to jump directly to a particular full screen app in Lion?

    When you full screen an application in Lion, it "flies out" of the desktop space it started in, and winds up at the end of the spaces list (assuming you have turned off auto-arranging).
    As a result if the app being pulled out of the spaces flow, there is no way to ctrl+1/2/3etc to jump to the space it is currently occupying.
    Does anyone know how you can make a keyboard shortcut so you can jump directly to full screened apps?
    i want to leave the app running in full screen and be able to switch to it using ctrl+1/2/3/4/5 etc

    Kurt, Yes Yes Yes, This works in CC also. On my MacBook Pro notebook with wireless small keyboard without page up page down keys, I use the fn (function) key, hold down shift and press the up and down arrows to cycle through the artboards. Wow, thank you so much for this as it is exactly what I wanted to do. But I must mention that Monika answered the second part of the question correctly also with the ability to 'jump' to a selected arboard by name. So, there is no way to award two with the correct answer, but you both deserve. I gave to you Kurt because you answered the first part of the question but you both deserve equally. CarlosCanto also chimed in with an edit I see now that mentions controls in the arboard panel that I have not explored yet. I thank each of you and you each deserve a huge amount of credit for coming up with the insights to navigation that are not readily available without doing some serious homework and having a good amount of experience also with Illustrator. My Sincere thanks to everyone who answered and commented on this topic.

  • Photoshop CS6 keyboard shortcut not working -- what is this red bar tool?

    I want Ctrl+Shift+S to do SAVE AS.  I set it as such in the keyboard shortcuts, but when I do that key combo, all I get is this:
    What is this thing?  The mouse pointer changes to this.  I can move it around and draw a box (in the background of PS, outside any open images).  I have no idea what it is, but I want it to go away and do SAVE AS instead.  Can anyone help?  Thanks.

    Hi Globe199, PS already has this shortcut for Save As by default as shown below.

  • In private browsing, ctrl+shift+del is disabled, but I delete cookies during browsing after leaving email; is there a keyboard shortcut or setting to allow this?

    I am usually in private browsing mode (since Firefox 4 no longer allows control of how long history is kept). Currently to delete cookies while browsing (e.g. after closing email) I have to go through the menu, open the options|privacy tab, show cookies, remove all cookies. Or I have to close and reopen the browser. Why would Ctrl+Shift+Delete be disabled? Is there a hidden setting to enable it in private mode, or an easier way to delete cookies on the fly?

    OK, I will try your suggestions -- thank you. Although I did note today when I went out of private browsing mode and into normal mode, the recent cookies from PB mode were not visible like they were a couple of days ago.
    But I am still confused about this because there are cookies definitely being placed and kept on my computer when I am in private browsing mode, but I can't see them or access them, so how do I get rid of them?
    This was previously mentioned as a known bug that was supposed to be fixed, but it doesn't appear that it's been worked on yet. Here is the post from which I pulled the bug report link::
    [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/957436?esab=a&as=aaq#question-reply link text]
    I want to be sure I can see what cookies I have, and also be able to delete them. Currently there is no way to do that while in PB mode. And also, it now appears that even after switching to normal mode, I can't see the cookies that were placed while in PB mode, so how can we know and remove those cookies that are being placed while in PB mode?
    Thanks!

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut in OS 10.6 for "open folder window" and "close folder window"?

    Is there a keyboard shortcut in OS 10.6 for "open folder window" and "close folder window"?  I have a hand condition at the moment that makes it painful to mouse the cursor over to the arrow and click it (for instance, in the sidebars for Finder or iTunes) to open or close a folder.  If anyone knows a keyboard shortcut for this, I'd really appreciate it--thanks!

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the presently open web page in another tab? It used to be Ctrl + N.

    Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the presently open web page in another tab? It used to be Ctrl + N. This shortcut now opens a Tab with the home page instead of duplicating the web page I'm on.

    Firefox has always opened new tabs in a blank page, so I'm guessing that the way you had it before was added by an extension.
    If you to to Tools > Add-ons > Extensions, are there any extensions disabled?
    In any case, you can still do this with a mouse shortcut. Hold down the Ctrl key as you drag a tab to an empty area on the tab bar.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the previous page in a new tab that is right next to the current tab?

    Let's say I'm currently on page X, and the previous page I came from was page Y. Is there a keyboard shortcut to open page Y in a new tab right next to the tab with page X?
    Currently my only solution is to hold down cmd (for mac) and click the back arrow button, but again, I'm looking for a keyboard shortcut. I know CTRL + T opens up the same page in a tab right next to the current one, but I have to wait for it to load then press backspace to go back one page.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to open bins in the project pane?

    Hi there!
    Quick question: Is there a keyboard shortcut that allows you to open a bin in Premiere Pro's project panel?
    I know I can just double-click it, but I like sticking to my keyboard as much as possible. If there's any default keyboard shortcut or configurable one, please let me know.
    Thanks in advance!
    Edit: Version - Most up to date CC.

    Option clicking any bin twirl down will open all bins. Otherwise, as shooternz noted, the shortcut wouldn't know which bin you wanted to open, so it's not really possible with some kind of clicking.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to mirror a macbook air on a VGA projector?

    I know I can mirror displays by going through the system preferences then displays.
    But I would like to be able to swith from mirroring to not mirroring quickly, without going through the system preferences every time.  Is there a keyboard shortcut?
    My Macbook Pro had the F7 key where I could swith in and out of mirroring.  I tired F7 with my Air and it didn't work.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to select and deselect items?

    Using the mouse or trackpad to position the cursor over the checkbox to select dozens of tracks in my library is tedious. Is there a keyboard shortcut that will allow me to use the arrow keys to move up or down to select items?

    Jon,
    On Windows, it's the "/" key. Try Googling "lightroom keyboard shortcuts" and going to the Victoria Bampton site. She has a .pdf file with a complete list.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to "Pin as App Tab"?

    Sometimes (mainly with a touchpad) moving the mouse cursor to the tab, right-clicking and choosing "Pin as App Tab" is a lot of work compared to just using a keyboard shortcut. Is there a keyboard shortcut to do this?

    It is a context menu entry and such entries require to right-click in a specific place to open that context menu. <br />Such entries can never have a shortcut key.
    You can't set focus to the tab bar easily. Ctrl +K followed by one or more tab key presses should focus the tab bar.<br />
    Then you can press the context menu key at the right side of the space bar to open the context menu and press P to pin the current tab.
