Keyboard Modifier Preferences Don't Stick

I have a brand new i7 MBP 15". I use an external Microsoft wireless keyboard when at work along with external display and mouse. I set the modifier keys for the Microsoft keyboard to swap the option and command keys to work in a Mac-like way.
This set up has worked fine for years with a 2008 MBP 15". However, every time I unplug the Mac the modifier settings revert to the default.
I've tried deleting com.apple.keyboardtype.plist but this has no effect.
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks
Charles

Hi Charles,
I am seeing the same thing and it's really frustrating.
I hope somebody here will have an answer.. it can't be that we're the only one out there with this issue.

  • Preferences don't stick

    One biggest nightmares of using Safari in last year is suddenly prefrences don't stick -- ie number of pages want search, to use/ not use search query etc. The problem vanished after last upgrade, but has resurfaces yesterday -- not sure if coincidence, but I downloaded some update from Apple, can't rememeber what, security thing and something else.
    Anyone have any idea how to lick this beast!
    The "basics" have not worked....clearing cookies, cache, deleting pref. file -- it "seems" be in an internal thing with Safari, as it did go away on last upgrade to 4.0.3, I think, but is now back

    HI Kevin,
    Maybe there's an underlying issue. Have you checked the startup disk for errors lately?
    Insert Installer disk and Restart, holding down the "C" key until grey Apple appears.
    Go to Installer menu (Panther and earlier) or Utilities menu (Tiger and later) and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in the left panel.
    Select First Aid in the Main panel.
    (Check S.M.A.R.T Status of HDD at the bottom of right panel. It should say: Verified)
    Click Repair Disk on the bottom right.
    If DU reports disk does not need repairs quit DU and restart.
    If DU reports errors Repair again and again until DU reports disk is repaired.
    When you are finished with DU, from the Menu Bar, select Utilities/Startup Manager.
    Select your start up disk and click Restart
    While you have the Disk Utility window open, look at the bottom of the window where you see Capacity and Available. *Make sure there is always 10% free disk space*

  • Mouse and Keyboard Preferences don't stick?

    Greetings!
    This is my first Mac - I'm happy as can be! It is a 24" iMac with the wireless keyboard and Mighty Mouse - I really enjoy using the buttons on the mouse to use Dashboard and Expose - but I'm finding that when I set the buttons to do these things in Keyboard and Mouse Preferences, they are constantly resetting to default? I have no idea why this might be happening?
    I set the preferences - it works as expected for a few times and then, suddenly, when I press button 3 or 4 on the mouse, nothing happens. When I go into Settings to look, the buttons are back to default. I set them again, it works again, but soon enough ... back to nothing.
    Anybody know why this is?
    Thanks,
    Wily

    Mine started losing the Mouse button 3 and 4 settings this afternoon. It started right before I found the 10.5.2 Update. They both return to default "Button 3" and "Button 4" at no particular event. It may be related to entering the screensaver but I can't duplicate it reliably. It is just a random change.

  • System Preferences don't stick

    Hi,
    I can't change the screensaver, no matter what I choose, always Flurry will run.
    Also, my mouse tracking preferences are forgotten after login out. It would seem that the System Prefs App is corrupted.
    I tried reinstalling it with Pacifist with no results.
    Any help would be very much appreciated.

  • Mail preferences don't stick or are changed without any user actions

    Apple Mail keeps changing the settings of my IMAP account. I set the Mailbox Behavior options to certain values, and then - after few days - the settings are changed. It typically happens with the settings used to enable/disable the storing of draft and sent messages on the server. It seems it is a quite common issue.
    Has anybody found a solution?
    Simone

    SAME.. i have one account i DONT want to NOT check mail automatically on otherwise i get double messages.
    I can have both my macs open and check the same setting on both and know theyre set exactly the same (so i know its not .mac 'syncing' the prefs)
    It will sit there open and be the same for an hour or so. then suddenly i start getting doubled up mail arriving, i check the prefs and lo and behold its changed to 'check automatically'
    Arrrgh
    love a solution to this one

  • 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.

  • Wireless keyboard function keys don't work even though updated

    Hi,
    like i read in different threads, many others had this problem too.
    The function keys of my bluetooth keyboard (aluminium 2009) don't work even though i did firmware update for mighty mouse AND the keyboard firmware update. I also unset the option 'use function keys with fn......' option in system preferences. I also tried disconnecting and connecting the device. In system profiler the entry says it is (still) firmware version 80.
    What can i do?
    I'm thankful for any hint.
    Best, Jörg

    wrote this in another thread, but it is relevant here, too.
    Wanting to buy a keyboard and reading this thread (and others), I went to a local Best Buy. They had quite a few of the wireless keyboards out. They had MC184LL(A) models and (B) models.
    ALL of the (A) models worked perfectly with the iPad (typing, brightness, volume, ipod functions, etc).
    NONE of the (B) models worked other than basic typing.
    They had a stack of maybe 50 new wireless keyboards on the shelf. All but two of them were (B) models.
    I bought one of the two (A) models. It is working perfectly on my iPad.

  • Keyboard modifiers for WB tool?

    I seem to remember seeing a post with a keyboard modifier that would cause the WB eye-dropper to remain active allowing one to click on a few different spots before accepting a choice of WB settings.
    I can't find that post now. Was I just imagining that or did I possibly confuse a shortcut from recently released competitor's product?

    I don't know about a keyboard shortcut, but if you hold the mouse button down and move the cursor around the white balance will change on-the-fly depending on what is under the cursor.

  • When I compose an email it flies up the screen when I press the shift key. I've clicked default settings on Keyboard in Preferences but it has made no difference.  It has only just started happening.

    When I compose an email it flies up the screen when I press the shift key and then comes back again. I've clicked default settings on Keyboard in Preferences but it has made no difference.  It has only just started happening.  Any ideas?

    This problem has also been plaguing me today. Here are my specifics and how I solved it (Expanding on what Quentin Holmes mentioned)
    CONFIRMED WORK AROUND! The .m4v file gets created while encoding, but Adobe Media Encoder does not re-pack it back into the .mp4 unless you select the "Export Audio" in Adobe Premier export prior to queuing. If you don't want audio, mute the individual tracks and still export audio.
    My details:
    Just bought a GH4, shooting 4k 25fps MOV, trying to simply trim a few clips and export them as H.264 .mp4 with no audio. (By the way it would be nice if we could export 4k .MOV files from the camera back into .MOV once finished editing, but in premier that frame resolution is not supported)
    Specs: Mac Mini, Quad Core i7, 16GB Ram, OSX 10.9.4, Adobe Premier Pro CS6 6.0.5, Adobe Media Encoder 6.0.2.81

  • Keyboard Illumination keys don't work on my Macbook Pro

    On my 2008 MacBook Pro the keyboard illumination keys don't do anything.  The screen icon that comes up has a circle with a slash through it. Any Thoughts?

    Uncheck the Automatially illuminate option in System Preferences > Keyboard.   See if you can adjust manually then.

  • Keyboard system preferences resetting after restart

    Greetings,
    I began with 2 similar problems.  My menu bar and keyboard system preferences would reset after each startup.  I fixed the former with https://discussions.apple.com/thread/6028346?tstart=0 
    Still, every time I restart or logout my keyboard system preferences reset to the default.  These defaults interfere with the software I run- Logic & Pro Tools, so while not the worst thing to have to remember to reset them each time, it is a drag.
    Any help will be appreciated
    Thanks

    The procedure below will reset the permissions of a user's home folder in OS X 10.7.4 or later, including 10.8 or later. If you're running an earlier version of 10.7, update to the latest version first. This procedure should not be used under OS X versions older than 10.7.4.
    Back up all data before you begin.
    Step 1
    Click the Finder icon in the Dock. A Finder window will open.
    Step 2
    Press the following key combinations, in the order given:
    Command-3
    Shift-command-H
    Command-I (the letter "I" as in "Info.")
    The Info window of your home folder will open.
    Step 3
    Click the lock icon in the lower right corner and authenticate with the name and login password of an administrator on the system. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Step 4
    In the Sharing & Permissions section of the window, verify that you have "Read & Write" privileges. If not, use the "+" and "-" buttons in the lower left corner to make the necessary changes.
    Step 5
    By default, the groups "staff" and "everyone" have "Read Only" privileges. With those settings, the files at the top level of your home folder will be readable by other local users. You can change the privileges to "No Access" if you wish, but then your Public and Drop Box folders will be inaccessible to others. Most likely, you don't need to change these settings.
    Step 6
    If there are entries in the Sharing & Permissions list for users or groups other than "me," "staff," and "everyone," delete them.
    Step 7
    Click the gear icon at the bottom of the Info window and select Apply to enclosed items... from the drop-down menu. Confirm. The operation may take several minutes to complete. When it does, close the Info window.

  • Subtle iDVD bug - buttons don't stick

    I have found a subtle bug in iDVD6.0.3.
    If you manually place the inter-menu arrow navigation buttons, save, then later re-open your iDVD project and "update" it because you have edited the underlying iMovie project inbetween, the inter-menu arrow navigation buttons return to their default position for whatever theme you've used. They don't stick in your manually placed position. All chapter buttons stay in the right spots, manually placed or otherwise.
    There is nothing you can do to stop this happening.
    Not a fatal bug, but annoying enough.

    Not exactly sure why this sometimes happens. I find that if I don't quit the application then I'm ok. However sometimes after quitting and saving and reopening these buttons do return to their default positions.
    Go ahead and try this: drag and drop the plist for iDVD to the trash.
    Quit iDVD. Locate a file named com.apple.iDVD.plist and get rid of it. iDVD will create a new one the next time it runs. Empty the trash and restart if needed.
    -->/Users/YourName**/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iDVD.plist
    Also please read the following:

    Hope this is helpful and good luck.

  • Keyboard Modifier Keys trouble

    Hi!
    I have gotten a new problem, I never had before.
    While having an external USB-keyboard plugged in, I swapped the Option and Command keys here:
    System Preferences -> Keyboard & Mouse -> Keyboard -> Modifier Keys
    (I find this useful when I use external PC keyboards via KVM switches and such, as they have the Windows key and Alt key opposite, at least on Norwegian keyboards.)
    And usually that only applies to the external keyboard. But now, on my new macbook, it now applies to the built in keyboard. And I am not able to turn it off. Or: When I turn it off or choose Restore Defaults, nothing happens. Even though Command is listed as the Command key, Option still works as the Command key, and Option as the Command key.
    So, does anyone know if there's a file I might delete or modify or something?
    flips 8)

    It seems the settings are stored in ~/Library/Preferences/ByHost/.GlobalPreferences.<UUID>.plist
    First I deleted both com.apple.keyboard.modifiermapping trees/entries.
    Then I re-entered the correct setting for only the external keyboard. (My guess is that I just overlooked the option of changing mapping for just one of the keyboards or "All".) Still I would consider it a bug not being able to reverse the setting without manually deleting it from the correct plist file ...

  • Keyboard and Mouse don't work after upgrade

    Hi, about one week ago, i've made a system wide upgrade and after reboot my keyboard and mouse stopped working. My hard disk is encrypted and without keyboard i remain at the prompt which asks my password to unlock the encrypted partitions. So i don't even arrive to login manager. I tried all the solutions i could find but none of them worked for me.  I saw similar posts on the forum and i'm sorry if i'm posting it in wrong place.
    Here is my  Xorg.0.log file, it seems like because of hotplugging, xorg disables mouse and keyboard but i couldn't disable hotplugging with the given methods like adding flag to the /etc/X11/xorg.conf file:
    Section "ServerFlags"
    Option "AutoAddDevices" "False"
    EndSection
    I 've installed/deleted xf86-input-keyboard/mouse and reinstalled xf86-input-evdev etc and it didn't work.
    I tried to downgrade to different versions of kernel, i didn't work.
    There are "00-keyboard.conf"   "10-evdev.conf"      "10-quirks.conf"     "50-synaptics.conf"    files under  /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
    So i don't know what to do else, i hope someone can help me.

    But, my keyboard and touchpad don't exist in the ISA bus address space.  Things that used to live on the 1980's vintage ISA bus (like serial UARTS and ancient keyboard controllers) are now serviced by the serial LPC bus.  I think you don't have that driver available in the initrd preboot environment
    Sorry, i'm not good at these things, so which driver i should install if it's the case? (By the way, i added  atkbd to the MODULES= and "earlymodules=atkbd modules-load=atkbd" to the kernel parameters, but i didn't make any change.)

    Note that you shouldn't do this as a permanent solution, but just to get through the bootloader issue for now, manually edit /boot/grub/grub.cfg and change the relevant lines to point to the LTS kernel (in other words, grub-mkconfig should NOT fail, but that's not your biggest problem right now). This way the entry that pointed to the common kernel should now point to the LTS one.
    You can find the LTS kernel files in /boot; the names should give them away. Remember to change both the kernel and initrd lines in grub.cfg.
    In fact, i also have done as you told(by changing lines to the lts) and read about the error that grub-mkconfig gives me. It says it's ok, error is not important it should work properly. So i have some problem with my bootloader. I can't see the boot option anyway. Problem must be about UEFI because i remember that i had booting problems also when i first installed arch to my computer. I see all lts and lts.img files under /boot directory but somehow don't see as boot option.
    Anyway, thanks a lot for all your help, maybe i do something wrong, i can't solve the problen. I'm going to reinstall my system, because i don't have time anymore. I hope at least this post would be useful for somebody else.

  • Problem with JPGs Downlaoded with Nikon Transfer - Can't Apply Develop Settings in Bridge CS4 and ACR 5.3 Settings Don't Stick

    I have found what I believe is a "problem" with JPGs downloaded using Nikon Transfer (ver 1.4.1) and processing same in Adobe Bridge CS4 (Develop Settings) and/or Adobe Camera Raw 5.3 (Photoshop CS4 and Elements 6 as hosts).
    Anyone using these programs in their workflow?
    The problem, quite simply, is that neither ACR settings (nor Bridge CS4 Develop Settings) "stick" when applied to JPGs that have been downloaded via Nikon Transfer ver 1.4.1.
    The same images from the same cameras (D300 and D90), downloaded moments later using Nikon's predecessor software PictureProject work just fine in both Bridge and ACR.  Develop Settings appled in Bridge immediately are seen, and JPGs opened in ACR, and settings applied, then "Done" immediately stick and are reflected in Bridge.
    If someone else is processing their JPGs in this manner, please let me know, as I have reported the problem to both Nikon and Adobe, and although I have tested it on two different cameras and two differnt laptops, I would like to get an impartial result as well.
    One other test, the problem does not seem to affect Nikon's RAW (NEF) format files downloaded from a D2x using Nikon Transfer.  More/different test are forthcoming.
    Thanks

    Can't say one way or another on that statement about using manufacturers' software.  Since Adobe has to interpret each camera models' RAW format having the latest ACR seems to be the best option.  But if the manufacturers' software is more convenient, and you get the same results then use it.  But it does appear you are not getting what you want, so suggest you try a duplicate test run with images straight from the card reader to Bridge and see if you still have same problems.
    I do know it is widely recommended that using a quality card reader gives you more reliable data than getting the pictures straight from the camera.  Does not seem intuitive, but that has been experience of many.
