I want to use Control-W and Control-T to close and open tabs in OS X

On Windows, you can use Ctrl-W and Ctrl-T to close and open tabs. On OS X, you have to use Cmd-W and Cmd-T instead (this bothers me because it is asymmetric with using Ctrl-Tab and Shift-Ctrl-Tab to navigate between tabs). Ctrl-W and Ctrl-T don't seem to do anything by default, so it would be nice if both Cmd or Ctrl could be used as a modifier for closing and opening tabs. Is there a way to accomplish this?
I tried using the System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts tab to set Ctrl-W and Ctrl-T to operate the Close Tab and New Tab menu options, but, this does not work; when I press those key combinations, the File menu briefly flashes, but nothing else seems to happen.
Thanks in advance for your help!

  • I am writing an interactive book and want to use media files and stuff.

    I am writing an interactive book and want to use media files and stuff. My question is: If I want to sell this book in the iBookstore,
    may I use photos I find on google images and media i find on youtube? Or must all be my own stuff?

    No !  well not just any photo image or "media". The person who created the photo images has a copyright protection IF  he/she wishes to impose it - ditto video and other  media.
    However if its out of copyright by  virtue of age and certain other factors - its considered in "The Public Domain" which is why you see paintings by the Impressionists all over chocolate boxes and posters to name but two!
    There are websites offering images donated by the creators and all for free.
    Taking and using a picture you do not own copyright and placing online where it can be downloaded is  first "publishing" and you  need permission and placing in a situation where it can be copied and re-distributed is a breach of copyright.
    Look at the  tail end credits on any DVD...  the above is always  included.
    Others rmay  correct me but Copyright in some countries is vaild from creation until 50 years after the death of the creator. However, that is not always the case.  Example, assume I am bequeathed a photo archive and on the  last day year 50,  I  publish a completely new version of the archive, wizzed through Photoshop, cleaned, cropped and modified in other ways.. then I can assert my claim for copyright of the renewed archive, but its a bit more complicated!!!
    You can search for "Free Photo Images (  media) , or royalty free images and if you land on a particular website you can ask permission. If you send me a request, my reply will be NO... and you get a warning of dire consequences if your infringe my copyright!  Other may be more lenient and in fact feel pretty good to be  asked.
    A way to get some guidance is to check out Wikipedia and the many  images included in its subject matter, check out the copyright status.
    Beware of using  photo images of paintings in  Galleries and Museums, they may have copyright conditions.. but one can always contact them to seek  permission.
    Search  for  Copyright and ownership and it should bring up some good information. Depending on your country.. it may have its own  Copyright website. USA are more detailed than most, The UK has the 1988 Copyright Act.
    Also remember that all photo images carry exif embedded data which  among other things carries the copyright information and shows up in a google search for the right  keyword!  Scanned images processed through Photoshop and other editors  can have the metatdata added also.

  • Using firefox 14.0.1. Loading a link using right-click and "Open Link In New Window", results in new window opening but address bar does not show URL..

    Using firefox 14.0.1. Loading a link using right-click and "Open Link In New Window", results in new window opening but address bar does not show URL. However, if I right click on a link and select "Open Link In New Tab", the Tab shows URL in address bar. So it's working when it's a New Tab but not a New Window.

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.

  • Everytime I try to use FF, dozens of pop ups come up saying FF wants to use various Fuji and Fusi fonts. Nothing I do seems to stop these popups and it takes me 10 minutes before I can use FF. why does this happen; how can I stop it.

    The specific message runs something like this: Firefox wants to use Fuji Extended Bod Italic on the volume WD startup. It is not installed. Allow Firefox to use it?
    I can choose allow or don't and there is a checkbox that says "do not ask me again." no combination of these options stops the progression of pop ups, which can last for minutes and will start all over again next time I start firefox.

    Among the alternatives not mentioned... Using a TiVo DVR, rather than the X1; a Roamio Plus or Pro would solve both the concern over the quality of the DVR, as well as providing the MoCA bridge capability the poster so desperately wanted the X1 DVR to provide. (Although the TiVo's support only MoCA 1.1.) Just get a third-party MoCA adapter for the distant location. Why the hang-up on having a device provided by Comcast? This seems especially ironic given the opinions expressed regarding payments over time to Comcast. If a MoCA 2.0 bridge was the requirement, they don't exist outside providers. So couldn't the poster have simply requested a replacement XB3 from the local office and configured it down to only providing MoCA bridging -- and perhaps as a wireless access point? Comcast would bill him the monthly rate for the extra device, but such is the state of MoCA 2.0. Much of the OP sounds like frustration over devices providing capabilities the poster *thinks* they should have.

  • I want to use photo stream and I have iPhoto' 09 8.1.2 at the moment, which upgrade do I need?

    I have been trying the 'Software update' thing but It isn't coming up with anything. I just want to use photo stream in icloud.

    You are using iPhoto '09, and Photo Stream requires iPhoto '11 or Aperture 3, so you have to purchase iPhoto '11 from the App Store.
    Before purchasing, open Finder, select Applications in the sidebar, and delete iPhoto. Then, open App Store and purchase iPhoto. After being downloaded and installed, make a backup of your iPhoto library in a different folder: iPhoto will update your library, and if this process fails, you will lose all your pictures

  • Can u have more than one account on a single pc as i dont want others using my account, and we all use same pc

    can i have more than one itunes account on a single pc, as i dont want others using my acount

    The most practical route is usually for each person to have their own user account in Windows. Then everyone's iTunes library will be completely separate and each person can have and use their own iTunes Store account without impacting anyone else's information and account.

  • I want to use iChat video and file sharing with Windows users

    Nowadays, iChat is compatible with AOL/AIM, Google Talk, Jabber, Mac.com and MobileMe instant messaging services. I know that Yahoo Messenger support will be available soon in Mac OS X Lion.
    I tried using AOL/AIM and Google Talk natively in iChat in order to talk with Windows users which were using Google Talk application or web chatting (Me from: Google Talk - My friends from:  Google Talk, and Me from: AOL/AIM - My friends from:  Google Talk), but videoconference and file sharing were not available.
    I also tried Windows Live Messenger in iChat via Jabber intermediate, but it is not efficient and doesn't work for videoconference and file sharing.
    So, which IM service combination I should use to chat with Windows users in order to be able to use videoconference and file sharing using such a great app like iChat?
    Thanks you.

    Hi,
    A lapsed Trial or lapsed Paid for MobileMe account will not work in any fashion, as a Screen Name in iChat/AIM apps or as a Email.  (Of course it is no longer an Valid Apple ID either).
    Given that Google is a Jabber server iChat will Video (or Audio Only) Chat Jabber to Jabber.
    With a Valid AIM name (AIM, MobileMe or @mac.com) then it is supposed to work to AIM on a PC
    This tends to vary from person to person as to success.
    From AIM version 6.5 AIM introduced a Send as Typing feature called "Real Time"
    It does not work to iChat and in fact also has to be turned Off in the Buddy List at the AIM end for Video or Audio chats to work.
    The AIM app also has to be allowed through the Windows Firewall as an Exception, preferably with UPnP enabled as well and UPnP enabled in their Router.
    Trillian is a paid for App for PCs that provide an alternative.
    Recently theri site offered 3 windows versions
    The Pro version of verion 3.2 (known to work), a version 4 and a version 5 in beta.  The version 3.2 used to have a free Text chat version and only the Pro version was needed to Video.
    Until the site was reorganised the 3.2 version was "On Sale" at a reduced price.
    It seems version 5 is now out of beta
    They are still separating out a Pro version.
    It is a multi-service client
    There is also a Mac version although I have not tried it.
    I am not sure what you mean by "Manage" your MSN Contacts.
    How about using a MobileMe expired account screen name for using iChat with Windows-Google Talk users? Should I expect the same incompatibilities?
    I have already addressed part of this. The fact the name will not work full stop.
    However one way of reading this is that you are thing of linking AIM and Jabber (Google) Buddies in one Buddy List
    Directly in iChat this cannot be done - unless you are the one with the Jabber Account and an AIM Transport set up.
    You would be subject to the same Text Chat only restrictions.
    It is a bit like the fact your phone line can be used for Fax, Telephone and DSL broadband. (in fact mine does TV as well)
    You granny would not be able to talk to your Fax machine if that happened to answer the call.
    Her Fax machine might be able to communicate with your computer if you had an active Fax app on there, and a dail-up modem active to answer.

  • Applet can't load when using Mozilla Firefox and IE Tab

    I have a page that includes an applet
    I must include page within the IE Tab rules for auto procces because of design aspects
    When the page loads, Firefox tells: load: class XXXXX not found
    This very same page does not fail to load applet if not included in IE Tab Rules
    I tried the latest versions of Firefox (3.0beta) and IE Tab(1.5)
    It appears to be a Mozilla Firefox problem
    But, any way, any idea?

    I just discover Mozilla Firefox does not work with deprecated Applet tags.
    I must use Object tags.
    Since Netscape and Safari does not acept properly Object tags, i decide to use a javascript to switch between both methods.
    Here a sample:
    <%
    CARPETA = Request.Form("UltimoArchivoCarpeta")
    ArchivoProcesar = Request.Form("UltimoArchivoArchivo")
    ArchivoProcesar = CARPETA & ArchivoProcesar
    ArchivoProcesar = replace(ArchivoProcesar,"\","\\")
    URLACTUAL = Request.ServerVariables("SERVER_NAME")
    URLACTUAL = "http://" & URLACTUAL
    %>
    <script language="javascript">
    var _app = navigator.appName;
    if (_app == 'Microsoft Internet Explorer') {
    document.write('<OBJECT ',
    'classid="clsid:8AD9C840-044E-11D1-B3E9-00805F499D93"',<!-- Java Plugin any version -->
    ' width="0" height="0">',
    '<PARAM name="code" value="JUploadApplet.class">',
    '<PARAM name="archive" value="<%=URLACTUAL%>/java/ddsApplets.jar">',
    '<PARAM name="file" value="<%=ArchivoProcesar%>">',
    '<PARAM name="urlUpload" value="<%=URLACTUAL%>/VENTAS_UPLOAD/ConfirmarUploadPedidos.asp">',
    '<PARAM name="urlRedir" value="<%=URLACTUAL%>/VENTAS_UPLOAD/MostrarPreviewArchivo.asp">',
    '<PARAM name="urlFault" value="<%=URLACTUAL%>/SimpleError.asp">',
    '</OBJECT>');
    else { <!-- No es IE Explorer ni Firefox con IE Tab -->
    document.write( '<APPLET code="JUploadApplet.class"',
    'archive="<%=URLACTUAL%>/java/ddsApplets.jar"',
    ' width="0" height="0">',
    '<PARAM name="file" value="<%=ArchivoProcesar%>">',

  • When launching and opening tabs from links in outlook express not all tabs appear

    Since upgrading to Firefox 21 when I click on links in emails in Outlook Express not all the links open new tabs, but when I attempt to close Firefox it says there are more tabs open than are being displayed. Firefox also becomes sluggish to non-responsive during these "evolutions". If I open Firefox first before clicking links in emails it does not display this behavior.

    The DDE fix does not appear to address the same problem I'm having. I receive no error windows or indications of any kind, the tabs just never appear, yet when I close firefox it will ask me if I want to close all "X" tabs ( and X appears to equal the number of tabs I tried to open).

  • I can't find anything that tells how to get my saved passwords and open tabs back after syncing.

    I had to have my work computer restaged. I synced my FF before I turned my computer over to tech services. When I got my computer back and downloaded FF, I signed back into sync. But my saved passwords are not showing. I have all of the items listed in the sync menu checked (passwords, open tabs, bookmarks, etc). I finally fumbled around and got my bookmarks back and I am not as concerned with my open tabs as I am with my passwords. Thanks!

    These can't get your data back, but will help in the future.

  • Is there a way to open two color windows? I want to use both HSB and RGB sliders and have them side by side. If there isn't a way, how would I go about creating my own script for it?

    Here's an example of what I mean:
    http://i.imgur.com/Q5aiHvE.png
    I would have access to both RGB and HSB at the same time instead of constantly switching back and forth. Any input on this matter would greatly help thank you!

    Photoshop only has one Color Palette.  If you could script something  like a Color Palette with  two sets of active sliders the script would be in control till you dismissed its sliders dialog.  You would not be able to do anything but adjust the script's sliders in Photoshop while the script dialog window is being displayed.  Photoshop Scripting does not have real palette dialog type support.
    I do not know what is possible with Photoshop extensions using HTML 5 Panels.....
