Keyboard shortcuts modifying link opening broken

Safari is able to open links in new tabs of windows in front of or behind the current one when the user holds a combination of cmnd, alt and shft. (The action is updated dynamically in the status bar.)
However, this stopped working for me at some point during my use of Safari under Panther, and continues to be broken with Safari 2.x under Tiger.
If I login as another 'vanilla' user it works. So, I assume it is something I installed at some point in my account. The most likely culprit was Saft, but disabling that made no difference.
So, is anyone aware what may cause this (very useful) functionality to break?

  • Keyboard Shortcuts Window not opening ?

    Hi,
    I am wondering if anyone else is facing this weird bug? The keyboard shortcut window is not opening in my Premiere Pro...any suggestions/ advice ?
    Thanks !

    Have you used the "Sync Now" option?
    The reason I asked is that I tried that option but typed in the wrong email address and that resulted in the keyboard shortcut window not opening on my laptop.
    I got a "Sync failed" error message but after I typed in the right address on my main computer, syncing was successful and the keyboard shortcut window reappeared
    on the laptop.

  • Keyboard shortcuts won't open & settings won't sync PP CC

    Hi All,
    I have two issues...
    1) The keyboard shortcuts panel won't open so I can't change them.
    2) My settings refuse to upload to CC no matter what I do. I've tried deleteing the stored settings from my CC account. I've tried signing out of CC via the helpmenu in PP and then signing back in again. I've tried clening the media cache. Restarting/rebooting/opening new project etc etc.. all steps suggested in other posts but nopthing seems to work.
    Any thoughts gratefully received.
    Many thanks,
    Tony

    Hi Tcordeaux,

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut for the open tabs on other computers?

    I know that you can click the arrow on the right of the tab bar to access the tabs from other computers, but is there a keyboard shortcut for it, or another way to access it?

    And then, you can switch groups by CTRL+` (grave accent, since my kb is portuguese, I have to do CTRL+ SHIFT + ´) or CTRL+~ (tilde)

  • Why does "Link Media" behave differently when used as a keyboard shortcut vs when right clicked???

    Not sure whether anyone else is encountering this, but the "Link Media" command behaves differently when right clicked as opposed to when used as a keyboard shortcut.
    When you right click to select that option for an offline file, you get only the corresponding disconnected source media. But when you execute "Link Media" via a keyboard shortcut, PP brings up a huge list of all other offline media. Why does it only do that when you use the keyboard shortcut for "Link Media" but not when you right click "Link Media".
    I'd like to get the Link Media command to behave via the keyboard shortcut the same way it behaves when right clicked. I don't want to have to deal with relinking a hundred other files, but just the single offline file I'm working on.

    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.

  • Keyboard shortcuts cause window deselect

    Hi everyone,
    I've been having a strange problem with Photoshop CS6 since upgrading to OSX Mavericks a few weeks ago. Whenever I use a keyboard command repeatedly ie. to increase or decrease a brush size it will work for the first few presses but will then become unresponsive and seemingly deselect the Photoshop window. I then have to click back onto the canvas before continuing to adjust my brush size. It's an annoying issue which is starting to really slow down my workflow.
    I tried resetting my prefences in the hopes that would fix the error, unfortuntately that didn't do the job.
    Does anyone have any thoughts on how I could tackle this problem?
    Thanks very much!

  • Any plugin to create keyboard shortcuts?

    Is there a plug-in that will let you create new keyboard shortcuts?
    For example, I'd like a keyboard shortcut to quickly open the bookmarks pane. (Ctrl+B opens the bookmark pane, but it also creates a new bookmark at the same time, which I don't appreciate.) 

    Test Screen Name wrote:
    Actually, no. I don't think the original poster is a programmer wanting to create a plug-in. I think he or she wants to buy one. Sorry never heard of one.
    Test Screen Name is correct. I'm not a programmer. I'm looking to buy a plug-in if there is one.

  • "Update Link" keyboard shortcut

    Is there a keyboard shortcut to automatically update modified links?  I couldn't find it in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts, maybe there's a different way?
    Thanks!

    Try this....
    - go to the menu Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts
    - in the popup window, select Panel Menus
    - scroll down the section that starts with Links... until you get to Links: Update Link
    - set a command key of your choice
    - click 'assign'
    - another window will appear saying you can't modify the default set - and do you want to create a new set based on the default. Click yes
    - in the new popup window, name the set, and click OK
    - click OK in the open window
    ... you should be good to go.
    good luck!

  • Automatically run a keyboard shortcut after opening a document

    I unknowingly posted this elsewhere, but was asked to post this here.
    I have a curio document/template that I use often.
    Curio has a mode called: full screen view, which only works by:
    the keyboard shortcut: Cmd *
    or by: click on Window and then clicking on Full Screen
    I'm looking for a way to have all my documents open up full screen every time I open curio (or curio documents). Is there an apple script or automator action possible for this? Can you pls help? I'm new to this. Thanks.
    I tried what was posted by arthur, but apart from the document opening up in curio, it does not go to full screen.
    http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=11128555#11128555
    Maybe something's wrong with my workflow. I noticed that Curio is not coming to front. Is that it?
    I then tried the link provided by baltwo, and installed automatedworflows.com demo 'type keystroke', but i only get the demo pop-up.
    I appreciate any help. Thx.

    then the workflow should be like this.
    1. open "finder items".
    2. run "apple script"
    on run {input, parameters}
    tell application "Curio" to activate
    tell application "System events" to keystroke "8" using {command down, shift down}
    end run
    save it as an application and put it on the desktop and/or in the dock. also go to system preferences->universal access and check the box to enable access to assistive devices.
    now when you drop a file onto your automator application it should open that file with Curio and then execute the shortcut commandshift8.

  • Disable Keyboard Shortcut for Open Adobe Bridge

    Is there a way to disable the keyboard shortcut which opens Adobe Bridge from Illustrator? Often when I'm working quickly I accidentally hit this (option command o) instead of (shift command o) to outline type. It halts everything to open Bridge, which I never use, and drives me crazy. Is there any way to disable this command?
    Any help would be greatly approciated!!

    Go to Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts > Menu Commands > File and remove or modify the default shortcut for Bridge.

  • How to create a keyboard shortcut in firefox for email link

    I would like to create a keyboard shortcut for firefox for the EMail Link menu item. I specified shift-Command-S as the keyboard shortcut. When I hit the key sequence the File on the menubar flashes but the Email Link window never opens. Does anyone have a clue as to what I need to do to get this to work or is there a reason it doesn't work. I do use Outlook for my mail client. That shouldn't be a problem because when I manually select EMail Link from the File menu Outlook is properly used.
    thanks for your help

    You need automator to create services, as detailed in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2241804 a four-parter by Sal Saghoian on *Automation in Snow Leopard*
    This, describes old and new automator—services stuff:
    http://www.reynoldsftw.com/2009/08/automator-and-finder-interactions-in-os-x-10- 6/
    Alternatively, just save the script
    *+tell application "Firefox" to activate+*
    as an app, put it on the Dock, and click it to activate it. However, seems simpler just to put the FF icon on the Dock and a single click launches it. Why would you want a service or AS to do the same thing?

  • Cannot Open Premiere Keyboard Shortcuts

    I cannot open Keyboard Shortcuts on Premiere v8 on Cloud (just installed yesterday!) - I get no dialog box when I go to Premiere Pro -> Keyboard Shortcuts. Nothing. I am on Mac OS 10.8.3 and cleared my Cloud Sync settings, to no avail. What I am trying to do is customize my shortcuts to enable a dang marker on a clip within a timeline, since I hear that's the only way it can be done. Thank You!  Meg

    Hi Meg,
    Trashing preferences usually solves this issue. See this link: http://helpx.adobe.com/premiere-pro/using/preferences.html#change_preferences

  • Look up in Dictionary keyboard shortcut hot key broken

    The look up in dictionary keyboard shortcut does not work.
    The Dictionary.app and widget works.
    Even clicking on the menu item:
    Safari > Services > Look Up in Dictionary works.
    Under System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts
    I have "Restore Defaults", toggled the Dictionary checkboxes, reassigned to another shortcut.
    if i "Inspect" Safari in Activity Monitor, the "Open Files and Ports" does not list
    /System/Library/Components/DictionaryService.component
    whereas, this component is listed on a Mac OS X box where the Dictionary does work.
    TIA!

    yes on both MacBooks, in Safari, i moused over a word and pressed Cmd-Ctrl-D.
    the service is greyed out in Safari until i highlight a word.
    the file com.apple.KeyboardViewerServer.plist does not exist under any users home directory $HOME/Library/Preferences nor the system-wide /Library/Preferences
    $ find $HOME/Library/Preferences /Library/Preferences -iname 'keyb'
    $
    nevertheless, thanks for your input.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut in OS 10.6 for "open folder window" and "close folder window"?

    Is there a keyboard shortcut in OS 10.6 for "open folder window" and "close folder window"?  I have a hand condition at the moment that makes it painful to mouse the cursor over to the arrow and click it (for instance, in the sidebars for Finder or iTunes) to open or close a folder.  If anyone knows a keyboard shortcut for this, I'd really appreciate it--thanks!
