PS CS6 keyboard shortcuts aren't!

The shortcuts work to an extent. That is, for instance if I hit M for marquee I get the marquee. BUT if I hit M again it won't change to the next one. And it's the same for all shortcuts. I have to mouse to the icon to change it. What gives? Is there a setting I'm missing?

For a reference to Adobe Photoshop's keyboard shortcuts, take a look at the new Photoshop CS6 Quick Reference Guide. It is in its beta form, but it is a great way to find shortcuts, as well as find a menu location that might have changed from CS5. We are looking for your feedback, which you can contribute on the site as well.

    Hi,
    This might help:
    Adobe Forums: Finding and customizing keyboard shortcuts
    In Lion you will need to find a way to get into the Library folder which is hidden. One methode would be to use the Goto command and paste the thread: (your main harddrive name)/users/userfolder/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Premiere Pro/6.0
    If that doesn't work right away then reduce the thread back until your in the hiden Library folder and then look for a Premiere Pro folder.

  • Trouble loading custom saved Premiere Pro CS6 keyboard shortcuts

    Hello Everyone,
    I'm having trouble loading custom saved Premiere Pro CS6 keyboard shortcuts. I have a saved .kys set-up file but there is no load button visible in the Keyboard Shortcuts dialog. It took a while to make the shortcuts. Very frustrating. Any tips appreciated.
    Thanks,
    FB

    IIRC ..the "load" is done from a drop down menu giving you the choices of the Default Presets as well as your custom set.  NAmed as per  "whatever.kys"
    Did you create them in your current Premiere or are you importing them from elsewhere?

  • Keyboard Shortcuts aren't working! Premiere CS6

    Hi All,
    I'm working on Premiere CS6, I'm trying to use the shuttle slow keyboard shortcuts (K-J) and (K-L) but they aren't working. could you please help me!!
    I noticed that in the Premiere's keyboard shortcuts directory they say that the shortcuts are (shift+J),(shift+K) I tried them but again it's not working..i need the one i mentioned above because it slows the clip frame by frame(means that if there was a person acting in my video he moves and talks like a robot not as a slow motion) I hope I explained that well.
    p.s. I'm using a mac
    Thank you.
    Sarah

    Have they ever worked?  If so, remember that you have to have the Timeline panel or the Program Monitor active in order for those shortcuts to work.
    Cheers,
    Jeff

  • Photoshop CS6 keyboard shortcuts in PSE 12

    Has the structure of the .kys file changed in CS6?  I used to be able to use the keyboard shortcuts from CS5 with my wife's laptop.  We recently went to CS6 on my desktop and PSE 12 on her laptop, and now the keyboard shortcuts that I try to copy from CS6 to PSE not only don't work, but are deleted by PSE as it exits.  I've put an old keyboard shortcuts.psp file that I had from CS5, and it works fine and doesn't get deleted.
    If my conclusion that the shortcuts are different and incompatible is correct, is there any workaround?
    I'm using Windows 7.  Thanks!

    It looks like the shortcuts from cs6 won't work in pse 12 and they don't work in photoshop cs5 either, so adobe must have changed something.
    Anyway, it's probably best to use the keyboard shortcuts from photoshop cs5, since pse 12 is mostly based on the photoshop cs5 code.
    This the message one gets in photoshop cs5 when trying to load a keyboard shortcuts file saved out of photoshop cs6.

  • CS6 - keyboard shortcuts problem

    in CS6 the basic keyboard shortcuts such as CommandC,A and V are either slow in working, have to be keyed in twice or are not working and have to be selected from the drop down menu. What's up with this?
    On a Mac OSX 10.6.8.
    Thanks for any help...

    It's something specific to your system, but you don't give us nearly enough information to help you.
    Maybe you spilled some soda on your keyboard. 

  • InDesign CS6 Keyboard Shortcuts

    I use Photoshop and Illustrator CS6 extensively, and as I am finally coming around to use InDesign CS6 as well I'm finding it to be very disappointing in the keyboard shortcut functionality. I'm wondering if this is a bug, working as intended, or simply something I need help figuring out how to work with properly. I'm running Windows 7 Pro 32 bit, and all my CS6 applications are fully up-to-date.
    My main issues are these -
         Using view shortcuts with a 0 or 1 (such as ctrl-0/1, ctrl-alt-0, and ctrl-alt-shift-0) requires me to use the number strip at the top of the keyboard, whereas with Photoshop and Illustrator I'm able to use the much more desirable numpad keys.
         I'm unable to change these hotkeys properly, as when I create a new keyboard shortcut set based on default, and go to add/change these shortcuts, the ctrl alt and shift keys are disabled. So even though I can set numpad keys the lack of function keys renders this functionality completely useless.
    This is extremely frustrating and I would appreciate any help in remedying the situation, thanks.

    The MODIFIER (Ctrl,Alt, Shift) keys should be working, in combination, with any other keys for making shortcuts, but they don't "register" in the dialog until you press and hold them in combination with another key. They don't work if you press and release before picking the next key. As mentioned, the Numpad keys are reserved for styles.

  • PS CS6 Keyboard Shortcuts in Spreadsheet Form?

    I know there are lots of sources for keyboard shortcuts in PDF form.  But I was hoping someone might know of a source for a list (or summarized) shortcuts tabularted in spreadsheet form (or exportable to a spreadsheet).  Thanks.

    Thanks.  I never knew you could do that directly from htm file.  it gets me much, much closer to what i need with huge savings on typing of shortcut items.  I'm going to work on creating a spreadsheet that makes finding unused shortcuts easier (for future keyboard assignments).  Thanks again.

  • Photoshop CS6 keyboard shortcut not working -- what is this red bar tool?

    I want Ctrl+Shift+S to do SAVE AS.  I set it as such in the keyboard shortcuts, but when I do that key combo, all I get is this:
    What is this thing?  The mouse pointer changes to this.  I can move it around and draw a box (in the background of PS, outside any open images).  I have no idea what it is, but I want it to go away and do SAVE AS instead.  Can anyone help?  Thanks.

    Hi Globe199, PS already has this shortcut for Save As by default as shown below.
    Have you changed something in Keyboard Shortcuts ?

  • CS6 - Keyboard Shortcuts Stop Working (Win7x64)

    I'm running Win7x64, just formatted my system a few weeks ago and installed everything, all updates, as well as Adobe CS6 and all of it's updates.
    My Photoshop CS6 is running 13.0.1.1, and is now experiencing this issue. Used it for almost a year without issues before.
    I'm using the default workspace, I added Actions to the right side toolbar and that's it. When I started having this issue, I closed off the panels along the bottom (ie. minibridge) and went into preferences-plugins and disabled the 2 items under extension panels, as per another thread I saw.
    It'll work fine, then quit. Sometimes simply closing and reopening the file fixes it, mostly I have to close Photoshop completely and reopen.
    I have an older Wacom Bamboo tablet, which I've unplugged but makes no difference.
    Seen a LOT of posts for this, not many solutions apart from updating Photoshop and disabling minibridge, which I've done. I've also seen threads as far back as CS4 about this problem so, surprised it's still an issue.
    Any solutions?

    Wow... helpful forum.
    Well, for someone else who may have the same issue (which seems to be a decent amount) I think I fixed my problem.
    In WinXP, I had a few keyboard issues which I figured out. When I install WinXP I click Canadian English. After everything is installed, under the keyboards/language settings, it would show the default US keyboard, the Canadain English, and it would for whatever reason always add in Canadian French. Deleting the French fixed my issues because I think with all the key-combos used in Photoshop shortcuts the language was getting switched... think default switch is 'LEFTALT+SHIFT'... which I use all the time when cropping.
    As a habit I always deleted the French one after an install. Win7 was the same, but didn't see French last time so didn't delete anything. Last installtion however I used a new disc. Win7 with SP1... checked under keyboards/languages and the default US was there, and the Canadian now shows as Multilingual.
    Deleted the Multilingual and just left the US default only, and after a week I have had no issues.

  • Illustrator CS4: My keyboard shortcuts aren't working.

    Let me begin by stating that I have used Illustrator for over 15 years,  and I have become accustomed to using the drag + alt shortcut to copy an  item. However, when I try this now (this has only starting happening  within the past week) it simply moves the shape, and I have to go  through the extra steps of copying and pasting in place and then moving  the new shape. Also, holding shift while moving a shape no longer  constrains movement by 45 degrees any longer, in fact holding shift has  no effect whatsoever. On top of all of this, the spacebar shortcut to  activate the hand tool and further zoom tool when control is held down  no longer works either. I have tried deleting my preferences folder to  no avail, and I am only using one language (English) version on my new  iMac OSX, in case anyone thinks these my be contributing factors, as I  have read in other forums. I would appreciate any help provided. Thanks  in advance!

  • Keyboard shortcuts aren't working Premiere CC

    I had to install the Creative Cloud on a different laptop as mine had to be sent away for repairs and I did the updates on the new laptop and now none of the keyboard commands are working. And I mean none. Not even spacebar. Help? It's really hard to edit with just a mouse!

    I am having the same issue with my copy of Premiere CC as well.

  • Random Voice Commands and keyboard shortcuts aren't what they are supposed

    I was just working on my iMac as usual when all of a sudden the speech commands thing just started talking randomly. I went into system prefs but the voice commands thing is off.
    Also, the keyboard functions (F1, F2, etc.) all got changed and no half of them don't work. I also went into system prefs and into keyboard but all of the functions are normal there, but they are not matching up with what happens when I actually push the button. *(For example, F4 is supposed to be dashboard. when I click it, nothing happens. F11 which is decrease volume, when pressed, brings up the dashboard)* once again, everything in system prefs is normal.
    I work for an advertising agency doing layouts and I cannot work like this without my macros working and random voice commands going off everything I push a button.

    Have you gone to System Prefs and unchecked "Use all F1, F2 etc keys as standard function keys?
