Impossible to put a modifier key in Voiceover utility / Commanders

In voiceover utility / Commanders, I enable the numpad commander. And I would like to add a modifier key like command for instance for this function. On the right, there's a popup menu that allows me to select a modifier key. BUT after selecting command and closing the voiceover utility, my changes are not taken into account and 'm back to "no modifier".
It is just like it doesn't keep in the prefs file my changes.
Any idea? Looks like an OS bug....

It sounds like a hosed Preference file.
Unfortunately, not having a numpad, I can't check up, but you could try getting rid of all the voiceover plist files from ~/Library/Preferences, then restarting and resetting everything.
At that point, it's probably a good idea to save all the .plists to an external drive such as a USB key.
Good luck!

Changing keyboard modifier keys

I use an editor (EMACS) which makes major use of the 'ctrl' key so I swap it with the 'caps lock' key so my little finger can hit it without getting a cramp. It works just fine about 90% of the time but the other 10%, when I hit the 'caps lock' key instead of getting the 'ctrl' function I get the 'caps lock' function and my editing screws up terribly. It is really frustrating because if I don't notice, and if I hit what I think is <ctrl>k to kill a line I get a 'K' in the text instead.
PowerBook G4

I solved this problem by finding and altering an applescript that will change the keyboard modifier keys. I wish I could still find the web page so I could post it, but here's the applescript I used to change to PC layout:
tell application "System Preferences"
activate
set current pane to pane "com.apple.preference.keyboard"
end tell
tell application "System Events"
tell process "System Preferences"
click radio button "Keyboard" of tab group 1 of window "Keyboard & Mouse"
click button "Modifier Keys…" of tab group 1 of window "Keyboard & Mouse"
click pop up button 3 of sheet 1 of window "Keyboard & Mouse"
click menu item 4 of menu 1 of pop up button 3 of sheet 1 of window "Keyboard & Mouse"
delay 1
click pop up button 4 of sheet 1 of window "Keyboard & Mouse"
click menu item 3 of menu 1 of pop up button 4 of sheet 1 of window "Keyboard & Mouse"
click button "OK" of sheet 1 of window "Keyboard & Mouse"
end tell
end tell
tell application "System Preferences"
quit
end tell
(end of script)
And here's the script I used to change it back to Mac layout:
tell application "System Preferences"
activate
set current pane to pane "com.apple.preference.keyboard"
end tell
tell application "System Events"
tell process "System Preferences"
click radio button "Keyboard" of tab group 1 of window "Keyboard & Mouse"
click button "Modifier Keys…" of tab group 1 of window "Keyboard & Mouse"
click button "Restore Defaults" of sheet 1 of window "Keyboard & Mouse"
click button "OK" of sheet 1 of window "Keyboard & Mouse"
end tell
end tell
tell application "System Preferences"
quit
end tell
(end of script)
I saved the scripts as executibles with neat Apple and XP custom icons and put them in the Dock. Pretty slick.

Why the card return error code ? I think the P1 P2 is correct, according to the GP2.1.1?
Thank you!

It also can't input the RSA Public Key to the card, as follows:

Cross browser testing : Modifier Keys playback actions not working in chrome and Firefox

Hi,
In my work flow I have to select multiple items in list.So I have recorded 'Ctrl+Click' action to select list items.In Chrome and Firefox it is not selecting multiple Items.
Even Ctrl+A,Ctrl+C,Ctrl+V also not working in chrome and Firefox.Complete modifier keys support is not observed in chrome and Firefox.Let me Know how to automate modifier keys actions in cross browser?
Regards,
Nagasree.

Hi Nagasree,
Welcome to MSDN forums.
First,please make sure the Chrome and Firefox is supported by cross browser testing.
Latest version of Chrome and Firefox supported by cross browser testing are Chrome version 38.0.2125.111 and
Firefox 33.
I doubt whether Chrome and Firefox in cross browser testing don’t support automating modifier keys or there is anything wrong on it if you are using supported browser. Since this issue is related to the Extensions tool
Selenium components for Coded UI Cross Browser Testing, if possible, I suggest you post this
issue here, click “Q AND A”, and then you could post this issue there, you would get dedicated
support there.
Thanks for your understanding.

Using scroll wheel with modifier key to zoom out is not working

I can't zoom out with the magnifying tool selected in all programs of the CS3 suite using the option key on a Mac. I can zoom in with no problem. I've been trying to figure this out for "8 hours" now!!!
I do have this checked in the system preferences and Photoshop preferences. I don't think this is considered a keyboard shortcut but I do have universal access checked and zoom out checked in the system preferences.
I searched this site and all of the internet looking for answers but can't seem to find much. I appreciate any help you can give. I'm way behind on my work today.
Thank you!

The default key for scrolling zoom is not Command but Control. To change this, go to System Preferences —> Universal Access and click on the Seeing tab. In the Zoom pane, click on the Options button, and in the sheet that drops down, select the text box at the bottom, highlight the character there, then press the modifier key you prefer.

[SOLVED] xmodmap qt4 modifier keys no longer work

Hi, I'm nearing the "hair-pulling stage because Googling this issue did not yield helpful results" stage.
I am having trouble getting modifier keys (CTRL, ALT) to work in qt apps after loading my custom keymap (as provided by ~/.Xmodmap). If my custom keymap is not loaded, then ctrl, alt keys work fine in qt apps. That is, it is only when this custom keymap is loaded that qt apps no longer respond to what I have mapped as the CTRL and ALT keys.
I have awesome wm setup to load the command xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap automatically on startup using this lua code:
awful.util.spawn("xmodmap " .. os.getenv("HOME") .. "/.Xmodmap")
My ~/.Xmodmap has comments on what I've switched around.
I am not sure what is causing this to occur? How can I fix this?
FYI on Xfce4 loading the custom key mappings don't lead to this issue with qt apps not responding to what I've set as modifier keys.
Update 10/08/2014 5:55PM CST It turns out I had a different .Xmodmap from when I was using Xfce4. There's something funky with the version I was using with awesome wm. I've updated Xmodmap here, in case somebody runs into a similar issue.

To get my inspiron 8500 working I had to use the xkbmodel set to inspiron and remap a little like this
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Keyboard0"
Driver "kbd"
Option "CoreKeyboard"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbOptions" "altwin:super_win"
# Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbModel" "inspiron"
Option "XkbLayout" "gb"
Manually configured other keys in ~/.Xmodmap. To see current mappings use "xmodmap -pk"
keycode 162 = XF86AudioPlay
keycode 153 = XF86AudioNext
keycode 144 = XF86AudioPrev
keycode 164 = XF86AudioStop
keycode 129 =
keycode 130 =
keycode 131 =
keycode 132 =
The 129-132 were wrongly mapped so I unmapped them
I then still had to configure Amarok global shortcuts to use the keys, but it worked, Maybe as I am using XFCE.

Modifier keys not working after 10.6.7 update

After the most recent 10.6.7 update, my modifier keys no longer work. I switched my Command and Option keys over a year ago, but now even when I'm in System Preferences>Keyboard>Modifier Keys and I switch them back and forth from Restore Defaults to the way I had them, nothing changes. I deleted /username/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.HIToolbox.UUID.plist and logged off and back on, but that didn't work. Any suggestions?

Unable to change modifier keys on exernal keyboard.

Running a unibody MBP with 10.8.5. Trying to change the modifier keys (swap Option and Command) on an external USB keyboard (daskeyboard ultimate stealth). Using Preferences -> Keyboard/Mouse -> Modifier Keys, I select my external keyboard (listed as daskeyboard) and make the switch. This has no effect. I am able to change the modifiers on the built in keyboard, but that doesn't help me.
I am not running the KB through a hub, direct connect to USB port.
I have tried all possible combinations of adjust settings, reboot, retry, unplug, re-plug, move plug - no joy.
From other posts here and elsewhere it seems this bug/glitch has been in Apple's side for a lot of years. Does anyone have a FIX for this that does not involve some hacky workaround where a chicken needs to die?
I run a linux VM on this Mac and it would be really nice if CTRL and ALT were where CTRL and ALT have been for decades.

I have a new Toshiba Satellite A75-S209 laptop. Now the keyboard was working perfectly, until i plugged in a external logitech usb keyboard. Now when i try to use the laptop keyboard alone all the characters are messed up.
i have tried to reinstall the keyboard by removing it, but i was not successful .
is there any way of re mapping all the keys?
or even like keyboard software?!
thanks

Modifier Key Mapping Not Working

When I'm at home, I connect my MacBook Pro to a 24" LCD, along with an external keyboard and mouse. One of the small features I was looking forward to in Leopard was not having to go into System Preferences and switch the modifier keys to correctly work with my external keyboard, but I've discovered that the feature isn't working. I choose "USB Receiver" from the keyboard drop-down, re-map the Option and Command keys, click OK, and close SysPrefs. Nothing has changed; the Command key on my keyboard is still performing as Option and Option is still Command. When I go into the Keyboard & Mouse section of SysPrefs, the Modifier Keys pane is back to it's default values. I'm wondering if this is a bug in 10.5 that will be fixed with 10.5.1, or if it's just my keyboard. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!

Any updates on this bug?
On my Powerbook, I have to swap the modifier keys under the "All" setting to make the change take effect on the external USB keyboard I'm using. Changing modifier keys on just the "DELL USB KEYBOARD" (in my particular case) has no effect.
It's just a minor annoyance (having to reset my modifier keys back to defaults when I need to use the built-in keyboard), but all the same the feature doesn't appear to work as it should.
Or is it just me?

Why can't I put a pre-keyed footage on my video without it freezing on the preview?

I am trying to put a pre-keyed fire footage in my video to get a really cool fire effect, but when I use PIP, it always freezes in the preview. How do I fix this? Thanks.

Thank you for the info and links. I never actually read anything from Apple about Hebrew not being supported. Since I was able to use other languages, of seemingly greater complexity, I assumed that Hebrew would work. The patch I was speaking of (that makes Hebrew song titles, etc readable) is actually not a hack. It was developed by a student in an Israeli university and purchased by Apples regional distributor (Yeda Inc., Apple's Israeli distributor). The software is called iPodHE.
If you would like to read more about this:

The "iPodHE" web site is:
http://yeda.co.il/iPodHE/downloadsuccess.html
Here is a link to installation instructions in english:
http://www.yakv.net/nextcantor/2006/09/03/getting-hebrew-on-your-ipod-a-guide-fo r-the-english-speaking-mac-user/
I did read somewhere that they are working with Apple to resolve a conflict with the latest version of iTunes and iPodHE v2.0.
Maybe this will be useful to someone.
Thanks again for your help.

Zoom:Use Scroll wheel with Modifier Keys to Zoom

Help! Since the 10.6 update from 10.4.11, I can no longer zoom in and out by holding Command while moving scroll ring on my Kensington Expert Mouse. I have tried other modifier keys to no avail.
I suspect a conflict, but do not know where to fix it. When in Firefox 3.5.2., Command plus scroll ring zooms the active window nicely. Any ideas or should I provide feedback to Apple or both? Thanks! DJ

The default key for scrolling zoom is not Command but Control. To change this, go to System Preferences —> Universal Access and click on the Seeing tab. In the Zoom pane, click on the Options button, and in the sheet that drops down, select the text box at the bottom, highlight the character there, then press the modifier key you prefer.

2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

Is there a way to add/change the modifier keys?

Hi
I would like to have the smooth tool be a modifier key like it used to be. aaah the old days.
anyway I'm sure I'm not the only one.
Thanks!

You can assign a keyboard shortcut. Go to your Edit menu in Illustrator, select keyboard shortcuts. Scroll down to the smooth tool and enter the key combo that you would like to use. Then save the set.

Modify key in Hashed table

Hi All,
I have hashehed internal table like this.
data : it_zawcumsetz like hashed table of zawcumsetz with unique key
KTONR_OPUS ZZ_AWC WAERS_OPUS.
I am geeting entries in table.
LOOP AT it_zawcumsetz into wa_zawcumsetz.
     IF wa_zawcumsetz-zz_awc IS INITIAL.
         wa_zawcumsetz-zz_awc = 'X'. "New value is * for
     ENDIF.
     MODIFY TABLE it_zawcumsetz FROM wa_zawcumsetz.
   ENDLOOP.
i want to modify key value in loop.
Rather than append from wa to another internal table is not possiable.
Can anybody please tell me how to solve this pblm.
Thanks,

Hi Katta.
If you created a hashed table just to improve the MODIFY inside the loop, change your itab to a standard table and use field symbol:
DATA: it_zawcumsetz TYPE TABLE OF zawcumsetz.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_zawcumsetz> LIKE LINE OF it_zawcumsetz.
LOOP AT it_zawcumsetz ASSIGNING <fs_zawcumsetz>.
IF <fs_zawcumsetz>-zz_awc IS INITIAL.
    <fs_zawcumsetz>-zz_awc = 'X'.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
If you can't change to a standard table, maybe you can duplicate the itab, just for the loop:
DATA: it_std TYPE TABLE OF zawcumsetz.
FIELD-SYMBOLS: <fs_std> LIKE LINE OF it_std.
it_std = it_zawcumsetz.
LOOP AT it_std ASSIGNING <fs_std>.
IF <fs_std>-zz_awc IS INITIAL.
    <fs_std>-zz_awc = 'X'.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
it_zawcumsetz = it_std.
REFRESH it_std.

Darley

External keyboard and modifier keys

I like to swap my "Ctrl" and "Command" modifiers keys and I've never had a problem doing this until upgrading to Lion. If I disconnect and reconnect my external keyboard sometimes my modifier keys are reset.
Lion lets you change modifier keys per keyboard which is where I think the problem lies. I also have duplicate listings for my external keyboard and I'm not sure how to delete the duplicates.
Does anyone know how to fix these issues?

Also, I'm not sure if it matters but my mouse and keyboard are connected through a USB hub which then connects to the Macbook Air.
