Is there a keyboard shortcut (not Ctrl-F4) that will close a pop up window?

I have a Dell notebook with a 10" screen. When I go to the www.allrecipes.com website, there is a pop up that appears when you go there for the first time that day. Because my screen is so small, I can't scroll up or down to get to the Close X box in the top right corner. The pop up is one of those annoying ones that moves down the screen with you as you try to arrow down the page.
I already have the pop up blocker activated - this is one of the few sites where I want to see the ads. I have also tried using Ctrl-W but that closes the whole window. I just want to be able to advance past the ad window.

You can try to press the Space bar to do the default action (OK). You may need to press the tab key to set focus to that button. Also disabling JavaScript temporarily will stop that pop-up from moving and may work to click that button, but disabling JavaScript may have other unwanted side effects.
Isn't there a close X on that pop-up?<br />
I didn't get a pop-up visiting that page, so it is possible that only registered users get it.<br />
You can try to clear the cookies from that site to see if that helps.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut (like in Safari) that chooses #1 on your bookmark menu, or #2 on your bookmark menu, etc? I miss that.

    In Safari (on macbook pro) if I type command 3 I get my 3rd bookmark. command 1 gives me my first, etc. It's so handy. Firefox?

  • 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 move from the bookmark pane to the PDF pane?

    I create a lot of bookmarks for easy referencing. Creating a bookmark is easy, with the press of Ctrl+B.  But once you are in the bookmark pane and done with it, there doesn't seem to be a keyboard shortcut to come back to the PDF pane. I always have to resort to the  mouse. If I can perform the entire workflow - create bookmark, edit bookmark name in the bookmark pane and come back to the main PDF pane - without lifing my fingers off the keyboard, it will really save a lot of time.

  • I just loaded 4,000 songs into I-tunes on  a new laptop.  All of the songs are checked.  Is there a keyboard shortcut to unchek all songs at once in the library?

    just loaded 4,000 songs into I-tunes, my entire CD library.  All of the songs are checked.  Is there a keyboard shortcut to uncheck all songs at one time

    Yes, CTRL-click on one of them, but why? Unchecked songs will usually be excluded from any device you sync with and will also be skipped during normal playback. If you're using the first effect to control what goes on your device, and "living with" the second then why not switch to using playlist selections for the device. Otherwise one inadvertent CTRL-click on a checkbox will undo all your selections.

  • Keyboard shortcuts not working while mouse over title-bar

    most of the time, while mouse is over the top title bar, keyboard shortcuts (like Ctrl+W, Ctrl+T, Alt+D) are not working.
    This is a strange behaviour that happens only after i migrated to linux (ubuntu 10.10)
    Sometimes, after i try the shortcuts a few times, on middle of the screen also, then suddenly it works also when the mouse is on the title bar. It's pretty strange...

    Well, that's not the case here.
    I tried to focus on text field, and the keyboard shortcuts does work, so that's obviously not the case here.
    Sometimes the address bar is selected and i can write there, but when the mouse go over the top title, it suddenly stops reacting.
    And the Alt+D and Ctrl+T are not working doesn't matter if a text field is selected.
    BTW, sometimes it does work, it almost seems like an intermittent problem.

  • The keyboard shotcut to top of page was Control+home and to bottom was control+end. Now I am running Windows 8.1 neither works. Is there a keyboard shortcut?

    Untii now the keyboard shortcut to top of page was control+home and to end was control+end. Now I am running Windows 8.1 and Firefox Beta neither of these work. Neither does control++ or control+0. (They did not work before I upgraded Firefox while I was using W8.1). Is there any keyboard shortcut to get immediately to top and to end?

    Home and End without the Ctrl key should be sufficient to go to the top and bottom of a page.<br />
    You only need the Ctrl key if you are in a text area.
    Do you otherwise have problems with scrolling a page?
    Does the Ctrl key work otherwise?
    Did you try a new profile?
    Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problem.
    See "Creating a profile":
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/profile-manager-create-and-remove-firefox-profiles
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Profile_issues
    If the new profile works then you can transfer files from a previously used profile to the new profile, but be cautious not to copy corrupted files to avoid carrying over the problem

  • 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.

    Hello marsfoxbeta, command + shift + T

  • 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.
    Thanks

    Got it.

  • 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.

  • 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?

    g-pod wrote:
    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.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to activate / deactivate the built in mic?

    Is there a keyboard shortcut to activate / deactivate the built in mic?

    Ah somewhat confusing. Your question seemed to indicate you were looking for a way to disable the mic, not that it wasn't working with some apps.
    Have you tried any of the Apple apps, Garage Band or Dictation? Do they work? If the input volume indicator under the mic in  System Preferences is moving in response to your voice then the problem is not that the mic is disabled or muted, the sound is getting into the system.
    Does the Input Volume move while you have one of the non-working apps opened? Have you installed any 3rd party sound apps or kernel extensions?
    Are the mic settings in Audio MIDI setup 44100.0 HZ and 2ch-24 bit?
    I would start by seeing if the mike works with one of the apps I mentioned above or download something like Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder to test it out.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut to delete files without the need to use the mouse? In OS X Mavericks.

    Is there a keyboard shortcut to delete files without the need to use the mouse in OS X Mavericks?

    my question is precise
    Not exactly........
    Cmd-Delete deletes a selected file without a mouse.
    What you want, I think, is a way to select the file (presumably in Finder) without a mouse so that it can be deleted.
    If you open a new Finder window - Cmd-N you can navigate with the up/down arrow keys as you navigate a file is selected , once selected it can be deleted with cmd-delete.
    If while navigateing with the up/dpwn arrow keys you encounter a folder you can delete the folder with cmd-delete or open the folder with the right arrow and proceed to naviagte and delete.
