Override F9 on Keyboard to get All Windows?

Hi there,
So my new work computer has the next track icon on the F9 button on the keyboard. My previous work computer used to let me see all windows when I would hit F9 and I would like to be able to do that again. In System Pref > Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts F9 is set up to show all windows but when I press it on the keyboard it still defaults to the next track command. Is there a way to override this and get my F9 = All Windows command back? Thanks!

That works perfectly. Is there a way to make it that I can just press F9 again? I work pretty fast and have all my shortcuts pretty much set to motor memory. It's a jolt to hit F9 and have nothing happen. Would like to just see all windows in one button push.

    Hi All,
    Any can post the batch script to get the disk drives freespace info for multiple servers.

    This is not an Oracle Database question, so it really does not belong in this forum. You can query the WMI database in each server to find the information. Try the following search on Google:

  • JFrame close all windows and send to front

    2 JFrame questions:
    1. Is there a way to keep JFrames above all other windows? For example, if a frame was on the screen and Internet Explorer opened, the frame would stay on top of the Internet Explorer window and would still be on the screen.
    2. is there a command to close all JFrames? I have a loop that creates a new frame each time it runs. How can I say close all Boxes when the exit choice is selected?
    if (x = 1)
    JFrame frame = new JFrame ();
    Box.getContentPane ().add (new JLabel (new ImageIcon (Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit ().getImage ("Image1.gif")))); Box.setUndecorated (true);
    Box.pack (); //prepares the image
    Box.setLocation (NextPlace, 0);
    NextPlace = NextPlace + 17;
    Box.setVisible (true);
    }

    I figured it out:
    System.exit (0);
    anyway thanks for your help.
    what about the other question?
    does anyone know if there is a send to front command
    so that the JFrame is above all the other windows?System.exit(0); will close the program. But if you just want to close windows this won't work.
    Instead you can use this:
    int iterator;
         Frame[] frame = JFrame.getFrames();
              for(iterator = 0; iterator < frame.length; iterator++){
                        frame[iterator].dispose();
    This will get all windows and close them.
    Also you must add this: import java.awt.Frame;

  • Once I close all windows and try to open another I get a message saying"Firefox is still running, you must close all browers before opening a new window. Why is this happening? I have the 3.5.10 Version

    I close all Firefox windows. When I try to open another window later I get a message telling me that Firefox is still running and that I need to close all windows or restart my computer. I have this about 3 times a day this past week but prior to that it was maybe every one or 2 weeks. I had the 3.5.10 Version of Firefox, but have just updated to see if this stops this from happening. But what do I do if it doesn't stop it?

    There are a few possible causes for that error, for details see [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]]

  • I have icloud on all my devices I changed my email address and my password for them, but I can't seem to change it all for icloud. It won't let me. I keep getting a window popping up on all them asking to go to settings but in settings it won't allow me

    I cannot seem to change my email address and password on icloud. I have changed it in itunes. But On all my apple products it will not let me, I just keep getting a window popping up on all of them asking me to go to settings but when I go into setting I cannot get it to change. Help !!!

    Go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account, provide the password for the old ID when prompted to turn off Find My iPhone, then sign back in with your new credentials.  If all you did was modify your existing ID rather than creating and entirely new ID, you can choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted.  Your data will still be in iCloud and will download to your phone when you sign back in.

  • How to get names of all Windows in a Form Application at runtime

    Dear All,
    I want to get the name of all windows in a form module programatically at run time. How to get it?
    Any help or comments will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Best Regards

    Hi Francois Degrelle,
    First of all thanks for the response.
    What if I have no items on a content canvas? In my application, I am using content canvas to hold the Image banner and help text of the current form, having no items at all. I am also using tab canvases to hold all items of form. The tabs are displayed on the content canvas at run time. So the tab canvases acts like frames (In my case).
    Now if I am looping through items, it gives me the list of all of the tab canvases. Whereas the tab canvas always has no window assigned, as it is displayed on content canvas which has that Window which I need. Thus I am unable to get the names of windows in my case through the above stated procedure.
    Another option could be if I can get the name of the content canvas upon which the given tab canvas is displayed?
    Any way to do this or some other way to achieve the use case?
    Any help will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    I cannot install iTunes.  I get a Windows Error 126 and missing msvcr80.dll.  I've tried uninstalling and re-installing based on all the suggestions, but still have an issue.  I've removed all the services, tried moving the dll files as suggested, but I still have no success.  Spent all day on this issue.  I am running windows 7.

    Sorry to hear this isn't going smoothly for you. Try  Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates. You may have seen some of the suggestions here before but is has taken some users more than one attempt.

  • All my hard drives (internal and external) have a small lock in the lower left corner of the icon and I don't have permissions to access. Permissions are set to 'Custom' in the get info window and I can't change them.

    All my hard drives (internal and external) have a small lock in the lower left corner of the icon and I don't have permissions to access. I have 3 user accounts set up and I cannot access any of them.   Permissions are set to 'Custom' in the get info window and I can't change them. Originally I had Snow Leopard installed on one hard drive and 10.5.8 installed on another.   I started to have some problems accessing data between them and so I tried changing the permissions on ONE hard drive partition.   The next thing I know, all my drives are locked (except the ones with the systems on them), the small lock appeared in the lower left corner of the drive icons and I don't have permissions to access any of them.   In the get info window, permissions are set to 'Custom' and I can't change them.

    There is suddenly a lock icon on my external backup drive!

  • How do I get all Finder windows to open in spatial view?

    How do I get all Finder windows without special view options set to open in the 'spatial' mode (without the toobar or sidebar)? The ones I specifically change stay that way, but I want all new and old folders to be like that too.

    That's called the simple Finder mode. You would need to configure that as part of Parental Controls in the Accounts preferences. To make any Finder window appear that way jut click on the gadget in the top right corner of the Finder window.

    After moving all photographs from my first catalogue, which was a mess, to a new catalogue, it all worked fine. Until that is I tried to open the new catalogue, which had worked OK all day. I now get a window that says "Unexpected error, select another catalogue."

    OK, restart in Safe Mode, this will clear some caches. It's possible one or more is corrupt. To restart in Safe Mode when you hear the start up tone hold down the Shift Key until you see a progress bar. Let it fully boot then restart normally and test.
    Also I am assuming you have checked Finder - Preferences  - General and see what boxes are checked in "Show these items on desktop." You can also mount an item in Disk Utility, simply highlight it and then look in the File menu for Mount.....

  • I'm still getting all these annoying popups windows, although I followed every solution suggested(safari extentions,block the pop ups) it's really disturbing please help :(

    I'm still getting all these annoying popups windows, although I followed every solution suggested(safari extensions,block the pop ups) it's really disturbing please help

    There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
    You may have installed one or more of the common types of ad-injection malware. Follow the instructions on this Apple Support page to remove it. It's been reported that some variants of the "VSearch" malware block access to the page. If that happens, start in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime, then try again.
    Back up all data before making any changes.
    One of the steps in the article is to remove malicious Safari extensions. Do the equivalent in the Chrome and Firefox browsers, if you use either of those. If Safari crashes on launch, skip that step and come back to it after you've done everything else.
    If you don't find any of the files or extensions listed, or if removing them doesn't stop the ad injection, ask for further instructions.
    Make sure you don't repeat the mistake that led you to install the malware. It may have come from an Internet cesspit such as "Softonic" or "CNET Download." Never visit either of those sites again. You might also have downloaded it from an ad in a page on some other site. The ad would probably have included a large green button labeled "Download" or "Download Now" in white letters. The button is designed to confuse people who intend to download something else on the same page. If you ever download a file that isn't obviously what you expected, delete it immediately.
    Malware is also found on websites that traffic in pirated content such as video. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

  • Getting all External Window's Names

    hi, i'm from brasil.
    how get all external windows names?
    post examples.
    i not undestand JNI.
    i need use dll?

    Your question is way too general.
    If you want to study the Windows API then this wouldn't be the forum for that.
    If that is what you want then start here

    You should have some experience with C or C++ and at least a basic understanding of windows dlls before attempting JNI.

  • Getting Spotlight "Show All" window to only show emails

    In Spotlight's "Show All" window (the same one you get when you Command-F from the Finder) there's a way to select what kind of things you want to see. However, for some reason the "Kind" list doesn't include "Mail Messages". It has "Applications", "Documents", "Folders", etc. but nothing to find emails. I notice that if I choose kind "Other" and type "Mail" in the box, I do see email messages, but it's odd that emails aren't in the list. Anybody know if it's possible to modify the set of things that shows up in the "Kind" list so I can find emails more easily?

    Weird. My "Kind" list is Any, Applications, Documents, Folders, Images, Movies, Music, PDF, Presentations, Text, Other.
    I tried enabling and disabling various kinds in the Spotlight preferences pane. Although that changed the set of results (as you'd expect) it had no effect on the set of items shown in the "Kind" list.
    Wonder what's happening here?

  • In Safari is there a Keyboard shortcut for Merge All Windows?

    Majority of sites sill open new pages in new windows, not new tabs. So, I keep using the Merge All Windows feature all the time. Please, provide a keyboard shortcut for this!

    Although there is no default keyboard shortcut for the menu item in question, there is nothing preventing you from creating your own.
    Under System Preferences > Keyboard & Mouse > Keyboard Shortcuts, press the "+" sign. From the Application drop-down menu, choose Safari. In the Menu Title field enter "Merge All Windows" -- without the quotes. In the Keyboard Shortcut field, enter your desired key combo and then click the Add button.
    You'll need to quit System Preferences and restart Safari for the change to take effect. Good luck.
