Network shortcuts no longer work

hello all -
i have a client with 15 mac workstations, an Xserve and a G4 server. we have a folder that everyone has on their machines with server shortcuts. so the first time we use a new server share, i connect the manual way (finding it in the browser etc) then i make an alias and add it to this folder of server aliases.
in Tiger these no longer work, it says the alias no longer works, do i want to delete it or fix it?? i can of course connect to the server the slow way, but i want to get these shortcuts to work, because it makes everyone's work go a lot faster
i've tried recreating them in Tiger but no go, and i recreated them in our lone OS 9 machine and that doesn't work either. the ones we already have on our desktops is from Panther and they don't work
we only have 4 users running Tiger 10.4.3, and the servers are both running OS X Panther 10.3.9
thanks
bob

yes i have tried recreating them in Tiger and they don't work reliably. they work as often as the Panther-created shortcuts work - once in a while.
at the least everyone is learning how to navigate the network, but there are only so many users that can do this without losing their minds.....

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!

Spacebar/hand tool shortcut no longer working

Hi,
I almost constantly use the hand tool toggle shortcut of the space bar in Illustrator. Today I've turned on my work machine and for some unknown reason that shortcut no longer works. When I try to set it up again (it's reverted to H and is no longer toggling, it just turns the hand tool on which is useless to me really) it tells me that 'the key pressed cannot be used as a shortcut'.
What's going on?

Sounds like a corruption or conflict.
Have you installed any new software of any kind including fonts?
have you updated any software of any kind?
have you launched recently software that you have noyt used previously?
Have you tried to create a new user account and logging into that account to see if it happens with a fresh user account?
If creating a new user accounts eliminates the prblem than you have some conflict or corruption could be your settings folder.
It would be helpful if you give us some information about your system and hardware.
Here is how clear out your preferences
Mac
1. Quit Illustrator.
2.Go to User/username/Library/Preferences/ Adobe illustrator CS# Settings and trash the settings folder, the whole folder not just the contents of the folder..
3. Start Illustrator. Illustrator creates a new preferences file.
PC
1. Quit Illustrator.
2. Rename the AIPrefs file (for example, to AIPrefs.old) in the Users/(user)/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Illustrator CS# Settings folder.
3. Start Illustrator. Illustrator creates a new preferences file.

Keyboard shortcuts no longer work after upgrade to ios 6

After upgrading to iOS 6, the keyboard shortcuts on my iPhone 4S no longer work. Not only that I can't change them either. If I add or delete a shortcut, it simply goes back to the way it was when I exit the settings and go back in. My iPad 2 doesn't have this problem, only my iPhone 4S.
I tried restarting as well as doing a reset (hold home and power button).
Any idea how to fix this?

If you want to go through all the steps I took:
1. Restart
2. Soft reset (hold home and power until Apple logo appears)
3. Reset keyboard dictionary
4. Reset all settings
5. Clear autofill
Only after the last step did things start working. Prior to that I couldn't make any changes I made to the keyboard shortcuts stick, though every now and then changes would take. Sometimes trying to delete a shortcut would crash the settings app. In all cases the shortcuts didn't work.

Superscript shortcut no longer working

Initially the shortcut for superscript worked but, it is no longer working. I have to use format/font/baseline/superscript to turn on and off. A real pain without the shortcut.
During one of my Pages classes the instructor added the character map to the tool bar and ever since the shortcut does not work. Not sure it really has anything to do with it.

What shortcut are you using? The standard shortcut, which works here, is Control & Command & +. That is the + key next to the 6 on the number pad part of the keyboard. If you have a laptop, or the small keyboard without the number pad, or you want to use the alphabetic part of the keyboard, then the combination is Shift & Control & Command & =.

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,
---Tim

Ignore the permissions messages, as per http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448
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.

Mail Accounts Shortcut no longer working in Lion

In Snow Leopard I heavily relied on some custom shortcuts for switching between my different email accounts when sending mail as outlined in this site: http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20081120093222315 . Then I upgraded to Lion and much to my chagrin, these shortcuts are no longer working. I have tried everything to get them to work: resetting passwords to defaults, repairing permissions, deleting my universal access and keyboard .plist files. What I have noticed is that it may be a problem with the "<>" characters used by mail in this field. When I create a shortcut in System Preferences I will type "SV <[email protected]>" and exit System Preferences. When I go back in it says ">SV <[email protected]>". No matter how many times I go in and try to fix this it doesn't work. If anyone else is having this problem or if anyone has any suggestions, Please Help!

This is difficult to sort out without hands on access to the webapp. I think Firefox should still allows your webapp to detect the Shift+F9, or at least it does in this simple example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>Test Shift+F9</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Try Shift+F9<br><input type="text" name="textinput" size="25" value="sample value"></p>
<script type="text/javascript">
function keys(key){
if (!key) {
key = window.event;
key.which = key.keyCode;
if (key.which == 120){ // F9 key
if (key.shiftKey){
alert("Shift+F9 pressed!");
} else {
alert("F9 pressed without Shift!");
return false;
document.onkeyup = keys;
document.body.focus();
</script>
</body>
</html>
It's possible that a change in Firefox 19 is interfering with the function triggered by the Shift+F9 keyboard shortcut. Is there another way to run it to see whether that might be the case?

After update to 6 shortcuts no longer work in message

hello everyone,
I have a peculiar message problem which I noticed right after updating to iOS 6. The shortcuts I used in message no longer work. I checked in settings and they are all still there but they are not active. I have so far tried deleting and re-creating one of the shortcuts, closing and re-launching the message app, and turning my phone off and re-starting it. All to no avail. Has anyone else encountered this problem, and does anyone know of a fix?
Thanks for reading, and for your support...
Tim

This is what I did step by step and it worked like a charm... I had an iPhone 4 when I did this a few days ago. I have documents and data ON in iCloud...
1. write down or take screenshots of all existing shortcuts
2. delete all shortcuts
3. backup to iCloud (I think this clears all shortcuts you have stored in iCloud)
4. go back to settings-->general-->keyboard... You may notice one or a few generic shortcuts pop up on their own. The one that popped up for me was OMW (on my way)
5. re enter all of your shortcuts and phrases
6. when done, back up again to iCloud (stores your new shortcuts)
I restarted my phone. Shortcuts still worked. I just got a 4S and restored from the iCloud backup mentioned in step 6 and my shortcuts worked on my new phone.
Good Luck. I hope this helps everyone.

Copyallurls ctrl+alt+c shortcut no longer working

After upgrading from Firefox 30 the shortcut ctrl+alt+c to copy all urls no longer works with the extension copyallurls. However, copying all urls still works if I use it from the edit menu or right click menu (it adds entries in those locations). Using another shortcut ctrl+alt+v for pasting urls still works fine. Still happens on a fresh install with it being the only extension.
These entries appear in the browser console:
Key event not available on some keyboard layouts: key="c" modifiers="control alt" browser.xul
Key event not available on some keyboard layouts: key="x" modifiers="control alt" browser.xul
Key event not available on some keyboard layouts: key="o" modifiers="control alt" browser.xul
Key event not available on some keyboard layouts: key="c" modifiers="accel,alt" browser.xul
Key event not available on some keyboard layouts: key="v" modifiers="control alt" browser.xul
Thanks for your help.

Unfortunately this add on [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/copyallurls/?src=search Copy All Urls] is not available for version 33.

Basic Panel Keyboard Shortcut No Longer Works

For some reason when I try to use the keyboard shortcut (command 1) to return to the basic panel it no longer works. Any ideas?

Is there a keyboard shortcut in your operating system for Cmd-1? This would most likely override the Lightroom keyboard shortcut.
Also, you can try deleting your preference file: https://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/preference-file-locations-lightroom-41.html

HP OfficeJet 8620 Scan to Network Folder No Longer Works after Mac OS X 10.10Yosemite Upgrade

My scan to network folder function no longer works. When I look into it, I get an error message when I test the Network Folder setup saying, "Incorrect credentials. Check your username/password and try again."
The username and password are unchanged. I just bought this AIO and I kinda need this function to work. I hope that 10.10 didn't just disable this function.

I have followed your recomendation step by step but did not work. The message "Incorrect credentials. Check your username/password and try again." keeps showing once I test the credentials.
After several hours of work this is very upsetting. What other option are to set up using Mac Book Pro and Yosemithe?
Thanks

ALT-P shortcut no longer works in Print Preview

After upgrading to version 25.0 on Windows 7 64-bit Professional, the ALT-P keyboard shortcut in Print Preview no longer works. Clicking on the Print button works. I have not made any recent changes to add-ons or extensions.
My workflow requires that I print many times a day using Print Preview (don't ask!), and losing the keyboard shortcut is very inconvenient.

It doesn't work for me as well on Linux.<br />
Pressing the Tab key once makes Alt+P and other shortcut keys work again, so it appears that when the page has focus that the shortcut keys get disabled (if I click the preview page then the shortcut key stop working).

Shortcuts no longer work?

The shortcut feature does not work anymore.
For example, "ily" used to turn into I love you. I also had personal shortcuts programmed that no longer work either. This has been since the last update to 6.0.1.
Is anyone else having this problem?

This is what I did step by step and it worked like a charm... I had an iPhone 4 when I did this a few days ago. I have documents and data ON in iCloud...
1. write down or take screenshots of all existing shortcuts
2. delete all shortcuts
3. backup to iCloud (I think this clears all shortcuts you have stored in iCloud)
4. go back to settings-->general-->keyboard... You may notice one or a few generic shortcuts pop up on their own. The one that popped up for me was OMW (on my way)
