Remap command and option key?

Hi there!
Does any of you know a way to remap the right command key to option key?
I've tried using fkeys and ucontrol, but they cannot handle it, any ideas?
Thanks
Adam Mscisz

When the question is simply "is there software that does X?", your best bet for an answer is VersionTracker.
In this case, the simple search (in the Macintosh section) for "Keyboard" produces, near the top, this hit:
• http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/12106
• uControl - 1.4.6
remaps any modifier keys, virtual scroll wheel & more
• http://gnufoo.org/ucontrol/
There are more, of course.

HT2638 since updating iPhoto it has ceased to open. i have tried to Hold down the Command and Option keys on the keyboard but it does not work. iPhoto still does not open

Since updating iPhoto it has ceased to open. I have tried to Hold down the Command and Option keys on the keyboard which is the suggested solution to then open a suggested solution to rebuild the library, but it does not work. iPhoto still does not open. can someone please help?
thank you

Try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache folder(s):
Home/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto
and, if there is one, the
Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: For Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:

Have you tried doing what it says?
As a Test:
Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?

Command, Control, and Option keys no longer works with Citrix Receiver after upgrading to OSX 10.9.5

At first my keyboard did not work with Citrix Receiver after upgrading to OSX 10.9.5 and I found the workaround by using "cmd + tab," however, once my keyboard work within Citrix, the "command, control, and option" keys no longer work. Does anyone have a remedy for this?

Hi I installed a new hard drive in my Mac mini osx lion an when I turn it on I get a flashing file with a question mark. I tried holding command and R keys when turning it on but the recovery fails to work. Does any one know how I can get it to recover?

Hi I installed a new hard drive in my Mac mini osx lion an when I turn it on I get a flashing file with a question mark. I tried holding command and R keys when turning it on but the recovery fails to work. I can hold the option key at start up and choose my network, then Internet recovery shows up with an arrow pointing up. When I click on the arrow Internet recovery fails and all I get is a globe with a triangle on it with an exclamation mark on it, and under that it says
apple.com/support
-6002F
Does any one know how I can fix this without a recovery disc? Thanks

I just want to add to this, in case someone else searches for this error on Apple Support (google doesnt cover apple support.. how clever is that?)
I had the same error. And i had a Computer that had worked, with a SSD drive and 16GB upgrade done by the owner himself.
I tried swapping with a Mechinal Harddrive, no luck.
Kept the Mechanical drive in, and tried with some other Ram, it worked..
So for me this error and after reading the other responses can be boiled down to a Harddrive problem or Ram issue.
It was Ram for me..

Flash CC won't let me switch between open documents using command and tilde key ( ~ )

In all previous versions of Flash, and most other Adobe software, you could change the active document using command and tilde key ( ~ ) on a Mac. However Flash CC won't let me do this. Is there a bug, or something I need to set up to get it to work? Or is this possibly just expected behavior in the new version of Flash?

I'm on a 2012 desktop with OS X 10.8.4 using a bluetooth keyboard. Cmd + ~ works with all other Adobe programs I have installed including Flash CS5.5.

What keys can duplicate the "option", "command", and "escape" keys

Am having to use an
ONN external keyboard and would like to know what keys can duplicate the "Option", "Command" and "Escape" functions.... Thank you

krisserz,
Actually, yes, a lot of things are similar on MACs, but for example, on this page: http://www.bugge.com/Family-and-friends/Illy/illy.html it says to find the folder Adobe Illustrator [X] Settings and there is none on my computer.
The Move the folder hint says:
Up to version 10, the name of the folder is Adobe Illustrator [X],
From version CS on, the name of the folder is Adobe Illustrator [X] Settings.
[X] is the version number; up to 10, it is just a number, and above that the Creative Suite version number, CS, CS2, CS3, CS4, and so on, is used (the corresponding standalone versions still have simple numbers, CS is called 11, CS2 is called 12, CS3 is called 13, and CS4 is called 14, but the version numbers with CS are used in the folder name).
So in your case it would be Adobe Illustrator CS3 Settings.
It may be worth going through all the Other options and try whichever may be relevant (Entorurage is mentioned under 7, along with quite a few others).
One of the less nice options is to reinstall, in which case the Clean Script should be used. http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cs3clean.html

Space bar, Command, Control, Option keys suddenly don't work

My MacBook Pro was working fine up until yesterday morning. I was working in GarageBand and suddenly the space bar, as well as the command, option, and control key on the left side only stopped working. I've reset pram, reset smc, run disk utility (shows nothing wrong), rebooted my entire system from time machine backup, but the problem remains. I did notice that the power adaptor was pretty hot last night, but I can't see how it would affect the MBP, but that's my only clue as to a possible instigator. Any suggestion are much appreciated.

Upgraded to 10.6. Problems resolved.

Remap volume and eject keys on aluminum keyboard?

Is there a way to remap the volume, mute and eject keys on the Apple
(wired) aluminum keyboard?
I'd rather have them above the keypad if that's possible - like they
were on previous Apple keyboards.

you wouldn't happen to be using Entourage as your email
program would you? If so, look at the post by me "Selection Issues"
this was happening to me yesterday and might be of help. turns out
both the issues you are having and the selection problems were
related to Entourage. Hope this helps.

Wireless keyboard lost command and 0 - keys funktion

Hi all,
after quite some time of working with no problems at all my wireless keyboard lost the command - keys and the zero. There is no reaktion when I touch them. After a restart they work for some minutes and then they are gone again. What can that be. Working on a MacBookPro with 1.6.8.
Thanks in advance for any tips and hints. I don´t think it is something with the keyboard hardware-wise because both command keys got lost simultaniously.
Best regards - Christoph
