Keyboard shortcuts failing to work on windows partition

Hey all,
I have been having this problem for a while and I couldn't find any information on the fix so I turned to these forums for a possible solution (Also hello all). My problem seems like it could be simply fixed by changing some system property but I could find no such info online, but enough with the idle chit chat, let's talk business. My problem is the keyboard shortcuts (such as control option delete and ctrl+click) are simply not working. The control option delete button gets registered as 3 different keys. One keyboard shortcut does work and that is shift f10, but I desire the more precise right clicking method of control click. I am currently using the Macbook version that was first introduced with the intel dual core 2 processor and NVIDIA graphics card (I don't know the actual name of it so maybe some one could tell me?). The windows operating system which I installed with bootcamp is Windows 7 64-bit Enterprise R2 and I don't know if this helps are all but my mac partition runs OS-X Leopard fully updated. If I am being dumb then a couple of buzz words is all I need to get me in the right direction. Thanks in advance!

Also, the eject button doesn't work for the CD/DVD drive.

  • Xfce keyboard shortcut doens't work

    Recently my keyboard shortcut doesn't work anymore. E.g I have Super-e for rox and Super-Tab for verve-focus. It used to work perfectly fine. However, the Window manager shortcut works: e.g. Super-1 to desktop 1, Super-2 to desktop 2, etc. I've also checked xev and all keys are detected perfectly so I can't think of anything.
    Thanks,

    Not clear what you are trying to do exactly but make sure you source patched and/or target the track.

  • Keyboard shortcuts no longer work iOS 8.3. Triple tap Home button on Bluetooth keyboard no longer works either. Help!

    Since updating my iPad Third Generation ("New iPad") to iOS 8.3, Keyboard Shortcuts no longer work. Also on my Logitech EasySwitch Bluetooth Keyboard, triple tapping the home button on it no longer works to trigger Accessibility, even though that is still set up for triple tap in Settings and continues to work on the iPad itself. How can I get these functions back? Wah!

  • Some Keyboard Shortcuts No Longer Working in Apps

    Recently, two specific keyboard shortcuts have stopped working within all my apps:
    command-1
    command-2
    For example, in Final Draft they are supposed to switch formatting to become scene headings and action lines, respectively.  All the other command shortcuts still work.  In Word, I have command-1 through command-6  commands set to change text colors.  Command-1 and command-2 no longer work but the rest stil function properly.
    All of my shortcuts worked perfectly for well over a year.  Anyone know why two of them might have stopped all of a sudden?
    Thanks in advance,

    Here's the second way:
    While logged into the newly created admin account, backup the bad account's folder, delete the bad account, selecting the save data option (which is stored in /Users/Deleted Users/ as a disk image), recreate the bad account using the same username/password combo, log out and back into the recreated original account. If the problem's solved, open the saved data dmg file in /Users/Deleted Users/, open the /Library/Preferences/ folder from the saved data, open the current /Users/restored account/Library/Preferences/ folder, and slowly copy plist files from the saved data folder to the current one that don't exist in it. Log out and back in to ensure there's no conflict and things still work correctly. Resolving conflicts or identifying corrupt plist files is a laborious process. Good luck.

  • Rocketfish Bluetooth Keyboard RF-BTKB2 not working under Windows 7 64 bit

     Rocketfish Bluetooth Keyboard RF-BTKB2 not working under Windows 7 64 bit
    Anyone had successs in this or another Bluetooth Keyboard after a bit of a struggle?  What did you do to get it working?  When I Add Device in Bluetooth it sees the keyboard but enlessly scans for it when I try to select and connect.  The Rocketfish Bluetooth mouse worked just fine.

    My friend, i have both, the bluetooth mouse and keyboard here that your talking about. and the keyboard was a struggle to pair with the windows 7 64 bit.... i think i spent 2 days working with it. and i didnt try anything special, i just kept trying to pair
    it, and unplugging the dongle and working with it... and after a while. it worked... Lately though, i have been looking into getting a wired mouse and keyboard becuase of the delays and sleep time i have with my current keyboard(rocketfish). supposidly there
    is a way around the delays but it disables all the options on your keyboard. IE the media buttons, and web browsing features. and my mouse keeps dieing off too....
    Also, after researching these products more, i found that alot of people experienced similar problems with them, Being delays and mouse failure. Even with fresh batteries and all. The products werent meant to be used long term(2-3 years) for extensive use...
    I dont know about you but i thinki paid 100 bucks for the pair so thats only 25 bucks a year... Which is kinda silly considering i coulda got a better one that wont cough up on me.
    If anyone reading this finds a good wireless keyboard that doesnt delay, and a mouth that doesnt delay...(my biggest concern). Please mention it. i am very interested in.

  • When icloud drive  is on on in ios8 and 8.0.2 the keyboard shortcuts do not work.

    When iCloud Drive  is on on in ios8 and 8.0.2 the keyboard shortcuts do not work.
    ANyone found a solution to this?
    I Have tried it several times and when tured off iCloud Drive and tested the shortcuts on an email, all was working ok...turning icloud drive on again and again the keyboard shortcuts stoped working. Solutions?

    Hi Susana,
    I have a similar problem: when updating to iOS 8 my iPhone 5 the shortcuts disappeared and more over the keyboard often gets stuck. When repeatedly turning off iCloud drive the shortcuts are present again and the keyboard works as it should. A factory reset of my iPhone was not successful.
    The only "workaround" seems to turn off iCloud drive, however, this is of course no solution at all.
    Since reports on keyboard malfunctions are rather rare in this community, I think, you and I are using some special settings or apps which cause this problem.

  • Services/Keyboard Shortcuts Suddenly Stop Working

    Hi,
    I have had a problem for the past month or two relating to services/keyboard shortcuts that I have created in 10.10. I have had these same shortcuts for approximately 18 months and they worked fine on previous versions of OS X but since 10.10 they stop working after approximately 30-40mins. As I say it is only in 10.10 in 10.9 they worked all day every day without a problem.
    I have created a service which allows me to right click on a directory of images and select a name to rename all the images within that directory in descending order. I have also created a keyboard shortcut that allows me to launch the Chrome App Launcher.
    When I boot up the keyboard shortcut works fine. When I right click on a directory I see the services menu with all the services I have added. But after 30 minutes or so the keyboard shortcut no longer works (Apples on built in keyboard shortcuts work as they should) and if I right click on a directory the services entry is missing but apples own services appear at the bottom, the ones I have created created don't.
    If I try to access services through the menubar the services I have created are missing but apples own services are still there. In the services menu my keyboard shortcuts also appear but clicking on them does nothing.
    I have 2 images which show a before 30 mins how my context menu/menubar menu look and after 30 mins.
    I hope my question and images make sense and someone can help me find a remedy for this.

    In MAC 10.7 or later the Library is hidden. I sent you a link in the above post to unhide library , you can refer to that. Once its open you can navigate to Indesign locations and do the needful.
    Steps to access hidden Library on MAC.
    Open Finder.
    On the top left there will be a option GO.
    Click on Go and Go to Folder.
    Type ~/Library and click on Go, it will open hidden Library.

  • My "go to in point" and "go to out point" keyboard shortcuts are not working, and the default keys arnt either? any help would be amazing!

    my "go to in point" and "go to out point" keyboard shortcuts are not working, and the default keys aren't either? any help would be amazing!  I use these keys a million times a hour and since I have switched to cc I cant get them to work. track selection makes no difference or if there are markers on the timeline or not. 
    Anyone else feel me on this?
    any help?

    Well that still didn't make any kind of difference.  I would just do without it but I've becomes really use to it with Avid for so long.  I have to admit there are a lot of small moments like this that makes me miss Avid.  Any other suggestions? I have checked the keyboard shortcuts a few times and maybe I'm just missing something here...

  • Keyboard Shortcuts still not working...

    since ios 8 update my shortcuts that still actually show in Settings > General> Keyboard > Shortcuts fail to pop up in QuickType or as a text suggestion when typing on my iPad Air. UNLESS I go into this setting and click on one of the shortcuts I've created and then click on Save again. If I do this it seems to reactivate The shortcuts when typing the phrases again. BUT if I reboot my iPad it forgets to use them again UNTIL I do the resave trick again.
    I was hoping ios 8.02 would fix this but it hasn't for the iPad. I will say however that with iOS 8 this problem was occurring on my iPhone 5S too but this looks like it's been fixed for the iPhone with iOS 8.02... strange.

    ALL of these symptoms seem to point to iCloud and or the new iOS 8 Predictive Keyboard...
    iPad Air... Wi-Fi here...

  • Since I updated to Yosemite, keyboard shortcuts don't work in Safari

    I use Yosemite 10.0.2 and Safari shortcuts are unresponsive. What to do?

    Howdy peze,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like there’s an issue with keyboard shortcuts in one specific app, Safari, since upgrading to OS X Yosemite. Take a look at the article linked below which describes a similar issue and walks you through the process of identifying conflicting keyboard shortcuts.

  • Ctrl+= "make font size larger" keyboard shortcut is not working, maybe related to Windows 7?

    I changed recently from Windows XP to Windows 7 64bit, and since then the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+= to make "font size larger" is not working anymore. Ctrl+- to make "font size smaller" is working like always. I tried this with LV8.5 and LV2011 and the missing functionality is on both LV-versions. So I wonder if this is related to Windows 7... Or am I missing something?
    Any ideas?
    I tried to switch keyboard input language without success. Then searched for menu shortcuts in the LV options, where Ctrl+= is not listed as it is only a keyboard shortcut and not in the menu. I wonder also why the whole font setting is so nestled in LV, why not just having a toolbar...
    Looking forward for any help.

    It works for me. I'm using Windows 7 64-bit, but I'm running LabVIEW 8.2, so I can't test this on other versions. Are you sure you don't have some extension installed that's using that keyboard shortcut?
