Macro or Shortcut for Settings?

Is there a way to program the iphone so that you can perform multiple functions with one or two clicks?
When I'm at home, I always turn Bluetooth and Cellular Data off and WiFi on. When I'm away from home (such as in the car) I turn WiFi off, and Bluetooth and Cellular Data on.
It would be nice to be able to have an icon, or a macro, or any other capability to turn Wifi off and Bluetooth/Cell Data on (and vice-versa), with one or two clicks. Is there a way to do that on the iPhone, or am I just dreaming?

SteveLasher I can confirm that Apple have now removed this functionality in 5.1

Shortcut for Bluetooth

Upgraded to Anna yesterday. Cant find a shortcut for Bluetooth. Best I can manage is a shortcut for Settings, them Connectivity, then Bluetooth - much too longwinded!! Where is it hiding?
Or do I mean Belle?!!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi optijen9712,
Thank you for your post. If you have upgraded to Nokia Belle to find the Bluetooth shortcut swipe your finger down on the screen from top to bottom and it should bring down a notification bar. You should then be able to see the Bluetooth button to switch on and off.
Let me know if this helps.
Regards
Raoul_Duke
If you find this post helpful, a click upon the white star at bottom would always be appreciated.

Keyboard shortcut for swapping external display settings?

I have Summer '07 Macbook and it has a dedicated F-key for switching between the various settings when an external monitor is attached. I'm considering one of the newer Macbooks (and giving mine to my wife) but have noticed that key is missing. I also had a recent experience with a friend who was trying to plug his Macbook into an external monitor. We could not find a quick way to switch between a "mirror" and "dual" display. (Actually, we couldn't even find a slow way, but I think that's just because we're kinda dumb )

Not that I'm aware of- I searched the keyboard shortcuts in CC for "swap" and "swap color" and it's not even listed as an option. I wouldn't mind Adobe adding more keyboard shortcuts for UI buttons for those who want to spend less time using the mouse.
Here's a workaround that might help: if you already have some artwork on the stage with the color you want, use the eyedropper tool (I) to pick either the line or fill color. Holding shift sets both the line and fill to the color you pick.

How can I set up a custom keyboard shortcut for volume control?

Hi all,
I use my black MacBook at work, connected to an external monitor and external keyboard. I'm looking for a way to set up the F buttons on my external keyboard as volume control, just as they do on my laptop keyboard. Looking for F3 to F5 to be volume mute, down, and up, respectively.
I tried going into Keyboard Shortcuts in System Preferences but since there is no menu item for volume control I can't seem to add it. Anyone know how I can go about doing this or what I'm missing?
Thanks
Mike

paste the following into Applescrpt Editor (it's in /Applications/Utilities)
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #ADD8E6;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
set curVolume to output volume of (get volume settings)
-- work out the new setting
if curVolume < 96 then
set newVolume to curVolume + 5
else
-- can't go over 100
set newVolume to 100
end if
-- and apply it
set volume output volume newVolume</pre>
this script will increase volume by 5 (out of 100) any time you run it. you can adjust this of course. save the script somewhere.
You can use a 3rd part app launcher to bind a keyboard shortcut to it. I use Butler. there are many others: Quicksilver, ikeys, quickeys, Spark, Launchbar.
this will work the fastest.
If you don't want to use 3rd party tools for this you can make a service using automator but that might be a bit slower than the first option. open automator. it will give you a pulldown screen wiuth the choice of what you want to make. choose "service". set it to receive no input and be available in all applications. add the following "run apple script" action to the service
<pre style="
font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
font-size: 10px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 5px;
border: 1px solid #000000;
width: 720px;
color: #000000;
background-color: #ADD8E6;
overflow: auto;"
title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
on run {input, parameters}
set curVolume to output volume of (get volume settings)
-- work out the new setting
if curVolume < 96 then
set newVolume to curVolume + 5
else
-- can't go over 100
set newVolume to 100
end if
-- and apply it
set volume output volume newVolume
end run</pre>
save the service, go to keyboard system preferences->keyboard shortcuts->services and make a shortcut for the service you just created.

Spacebar shortcut for hand tool not working in Photoshop CC - have tried closing all other programs

The spacebar shortcut for hand tool is not working in Photoshop CC - as suggested in this form & others I have tried closing all other programs with no result. I have also reset photoshop to default settings & this did not make any difference either.

There may be a software conflict. I went through this today. When I did a search in Adobe foruns actually found tha answer on the Illustrator forum: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1027227?
What the problem for me was an app called - 1Password. I had opened it, but not given my password to login and it was on in the background. As soon as I quit 1Password, the spacebar Hand Tool worked.
Then I opened 1Password again, and logged in. This time the spacebar works.
Others mentioned conflict with Spotify. And Chrome too. Couple other things. Read that thread in the link above.
Good luck!

Shortcut for action reset on every start of Photoshop CC

Hey there,
I have a problem I didn't have with Photoshop CS6 that now occured on CC since I just subscribed.
I had set a shortcut for a custom action in Photoshop CS6 which was F2. Since I wanted to use F2 for another function (i.e. renaming layers) in Photoshop, I had changed the action shortcut to F4 successfully when working with CS6. However, on Photoshop CC, each time I start the program the shortcut is reset to F2. I already tried saving my shortcuts, but I assume that doesn't include the ones for actions? I can 'solve' it by manually copying stuff from the CS6 presets folder - which is far from ideal since I then cannot change it to something else in future either (will stick to F4 then).
Anybody an idea what might cause this, or better: How to solve it?
I am using the Windows version of PS CC, being on Windows 8.1.
Thanks in advance
enoversum

Ugh, I didn't intend this to turn into a Mac vs. PC contest. My only implication is this: Mac users might be forgiven for expecting that their preferences are saved right now, vs. PC users who expect settings to be saved after a successful run and exit of something - because that's how most things work on each of those two systems. Photoshop's philosophy is more PC-like in this case, even when run on a Mac.
But that's neither here nor there for helping solve Eno's problem.
Eno, if you add a new action set, does it still appear in the Actions panel after having closed and restarted Photoshop? I'm still trying to gauge whether you're having a general failure to save preferences, or just some odd failure having to do with key assignments.
The file your actions panel data is saved in on a Windows 8 system is here:
C:\Users\YourUsername\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC\Adobe Photoshop CC Settings\Actions Palette.psp
Do you see its Modification Date getting updated upon exiting Photoshop?
I'm wondering if somehow you have a permissions problem with that particular file.

Shortcuts for Telephony Toolbar Buttons in IC WebClient 7.0

Hi, experts!
I have a requirement to customize shortcuts for keys to access multi-channel toolbar buttons. Couldn't you tell me where can I find this customizing? Or what is the transaction code for this customizing?
Thanks in advance,
Fanil.

Hi Fanil,
You can maintain the Toolbar settings in the below path.
SPRO>CRM>IC Webclient>Basic Functions>Define Tool Bar profile (Or use the existing one if suits for your requirement).
Assign the defined Toolbar profile to your Business role, Ex If you are using IC Agent Business Role run Transaction code CRMC_UI_PROFILE (Customer Relationship Management  Interaction Center WebClient  Define Business Roles), select the IC_Agent Business role and assign the defined Tool bar profile in assign function profile (Function profile id is WBAR).
Hope this solves your issue.
Thanks

Can't create a desktop shortcut for a website in Firefox Tor Browser

I am a Tor Browser user, and I really like the Firefox interface. According to my about page, my Firefox browser is up to date. But For some reason I cannot save desktop shortcuts for a website. Every time I drag the icon next to a website (variously a glob, a green lock, and other icons), I get a denial mouse icon anywhere I try to put the web shortcut on the desktop. This even happens when I drag bookmarks from my bookmark bar! My guess is that something is blocked in the Tor settings that won't allow shortcuts. Any suggestions on where the shortcuts settings are in Firefox?

I don't know that program. Go to its Mozilla Add-ons web page and find the support link. Then ask them about this. It may be a bug.
Do the other add-ons I sent you work okay? Then you should be about done, until you hear from the Tor support people.
Once you get an answer, please post it here. Good Luck, Happy Holidays !

Macro not working for Word.

My macro is not working for Microsoft word. Its showing some macro settings issue. Please help.

Hi,
The macro you mean is Macro Recoder, isn't it? As far as I know, this product may be not compatible with Windows 8.1. I found the link below show its system requirements:

What's the keyboard shortcut for entering time and date?

Is there a keyboard shortcut for entering time and date?
Hopefully one which would work in any application.
Thank you.

None is built-in. You can use any number of third-party utilities for creating macros. For example:
1. TypeIt4Me
2. TextExpander
3. Typinator
4. AutoTyper (part of Automaton)
Any of the above are excellent choices. Demo/Trial downloads are found at CNet Downloads or MacUpdate.

Keyboard shortcut for context menu

Hello all. I recently got a MacBook and it's the first Mac I've ever had. I'm a keyboard shortcut guy when I can be and one thing that's stumped me is using the keyboard to open up the context menu.
Does anybody know a keyboard shortcut for opening the context menu (ie Ctrl + mouse Click)?
If there isn't one, I would be happy to add a custom keyboard shortcut for it in the System Preferences. I've tried to do so but I'm doing something wrong because it isn't working. Here's what I've tried specifically:
1. For "All Applications" add Ctrl+Space for the Menu Title "Show Context Menu"
2. For "All Applications" add Ctrl+Space for the Menu Title "Open Context Menu"
Does anybody know the exact Menu Title for the context menu?
Help is much appreciated!

The Keyboard Shortcuts are for menu items, not macro creation. What you want to do requires a third-party utility for programming keyboard macros such as iKey, QuickSilver, etc. You'll find these at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

Any way to create a keyboard shortcut for keywords in Bridge CC?

Just curious if there's any way to create a keyboard shortcut for "new keyword" and "new sub keyword" in Bridge CC?
If not, that would be a welcome addition in any future Bridge update - being able to customize keyboard shortcuts or add your own the way you can in Premiere Pro CC.

Steve,
Not, as far as I know, directly, but the problem is with Aperture, not Keyboard Maestro. Aperture has no command (afaik) for selecting the caption field of the Info Inspector. Without a command, you will have to find another way to access it, or another way to accomplish what you want.
You can specify the spot clicked by screen coordinates, so you cold use the Inspector HUD and the coordinates of the Caption field, as long as the Inspector HUD always pops up in the same location.
Many dialog boxes allow the user to advance through the fields with the Tab key. Unfortunately, the number of times you have to type "{Tab}" in order to get to a particular field depends on other interface elements (if the Control Bar is showing, add 2). I don't know of a way to determine if the Control Bar is showing.
You might find a work-around using a Metadata Preset and the Batch Change command. Keyboard Maestro can easily pop up a dialog with a text field in which you can type what you want to go into Aperture's Caption field.
The best thing to do is download the trial version and see if it meets your needs. Keyboard Maestro is adept at creating macros based on keyboard input. If the program does not provide keyboard equivalents, writing an effective macro becomes difficult.
http://www.keyboardmaestro.com/main/
The author provides exemplary documentation:
http://wiki.keyboardmaestro.com/About_Keyboard_Maestro
Lastly, for the use you cite, I simply show the Inspector if it's not showing (by typing "i"), change to the Info tab if it is not currently activated (by clicking, but note that opening the Inspector with the Info tab selected can be done with one command "View➞Inspector➞Info"), and then clicking in the Caption field, which is part of all of the Metadata Views I regularly use.
HTH. Perhaps one of our programming mavens will suggest something better.

Keyboard shortcuts for cropping not working

iPhoto '11 (9.3.1) cropping shortcuts not working.
Pressing shift while dragging does not disable the "Contrain" setting when using preset sizes. Nothing happens.
What are we supposed to "drag vertically" or "horizontally" in a preset crop size that makes iPhoto switch between portrait or landscape constrain setting?
Having to go to the "Crop" drop-down menu to click-switch contraints between portrait and landscape is very tiring - these shortcuts don't work unless someone can please tell me what I'm doing wrong.
Disable constrain setting in crop tool when selecting an area
Press the Shift key while dragging
Switch between portrait and landscape constrain settings in crop tool when selecting an area
Drag vertically for portrait crop or drag horizontally for landscape crop

Hi -
In order to support keyboard shortcuts for the Tag Panel we needed to implement a bit of a unique method. The Tag Panel itself does indeed need to have focus in order for it's keyboard shortcuts to activate. The core reason for this is to remove the potential for keyboard shortcut conflicts between the rest of the app the those stored within a Tag template. Remember, you can share Tag Templates across system and with other users. and each template can contain it's own shortcut definitions. The only way to prevent conflicts is to enforce the focus rule.
the recommended workflow is to open a clip and set focus to the Tag Panel. From the Tag Panel all of the Transport Controls (JKL, SPACE BAR for play/pause, etc.) will still function when the Tag Panel has focus. So you should still be able to review your clips and apply Tags via shortcut.
Let me know how this works. We are always looking to improve workflows so if you come up with some improvement ideas please share.
Regards,
Michael

Keyboard shortcut for filling layer with color are opposite on my PS CS6 OSX install, Help?

Hello all,
I'm a bit of a noob, and following a tutorial….and found something strange and wonder if you might help me figure what's happening.
I have Photoshop Extended CS6 on a macbook pro (late 2011).
I'm running OSX v 10.7.5
I'm following along and the instructor added a new layer. I did this.
He then filled the layer with white which is his background color (he has black foreground, white background). I have the same fore/background colors.
Now, I thought on mac that to fill with foreground color you hit Apple+Delete and to fill with background you hit Option+Delete
It is doing the exact OPPOSITE for me. I hit Apple+Delete (or even backspace) and it fills with my background color which is white
If I hit Option+Delete (or backspace) it fills with my foreground color.
I've tried looking in the Edit Keyboard shortcuts area…but I don't see these settings anywhere.
I do have an external keyboard hooked to my mac. It is a 3rd party one, but seems to work in ever other way normally.
Keyboard here is: http://pckeyboard.com/page/UKBD/UB40P4A
Any suggestions why my keyboard shortcut for filling a layer with color might be reversed?
Thanks in advance,
CC

option-delete is, and always has been, fill with foreground.
a 1 second google search would have informed you of this.
Thanks for the reply.
I did do a Google and I got this:
http://blog.coghillcartooning.com/84/tip-keyboard-shortcut-to-fill-a-photoshop-layer-or-se lection-with-the-background-or-foreground-color/
And from that I got the option-delete was background, and apple-delete was foreground.
Hence my confusion...
Thanks for the reply, I guess I should check 2-3 sites each time I google for keyboard shortcuts for PS.
