Scaling with key commands not working with objects or text frames

Suddenly, I can no longer hold Shift+Option+Command to proportionally scale anything in InDesign CC 2014. Any suggestions?

Which file do I want to trash or rename?

  • IBook G3 startup shortcut key commands not working with OS 9?

    My iBook does not recognize any of these key commands:
    startup from disk holding "C"
    target disk mode holding "T"
    PRAM zap
    etc...
    The only command it listens to is Shift to turn extensions off. My keyboard works fine and none of the keys are stuck. I've never seen anything like this, what could it possibly be?

    If there's a firmware password set on the computer, it needs to be removed first. This can be tested by pressing the Option key and seeing whether a padlock appears or the command is ignored.

  • Key commands not working

    I found an old post about this, but it didn't seem to have a solution to the problem.
    Some key commands I assign simply don't work. They even show up in the menus, but don't do anything (one example, I tried assigning shift-m for Create Marker without Rounding).
    Also, when the key command window is open, typing some key commands jumps to the assigned command, but with others it doesn't (I can see one of the menus at the top flash, as if it's trying to actually do the command). One example of this is command-m which is assigned to open movie. (oddly, getting rid of open movie and changing command M to create marker without rounding worked, although it still didn't jump to it in the list)
    If the function to show used key commands isn't working, how am I supposed to know what's free for additional key commands?
    I'm using the standard US keyboard, standard key commands in tiger (which don't seem to overlap any of the ones I'm tweaking).
    Any ideas on this? It's very frustrating and a big waste of time.

    It's also a pain that the key command window shows codes for the keys instead of what the keys actually are. <<</div>
    Actually, there are 2 methods for simultaneously assigning/viewing the assignment; one shows you alphanumeric charaters and one shows the key codes. But it is true that some key assignments won't work unless they're assigned as key codes.
    I agree -- it's time to either revamp this window (with all of the features you mentioned) or offer an explanation as to how it actually works so that people like us aren't left pulling our hair our because this window's functions don't always seems to work properly. Something like:
    "Hi, this is the Apple/Logic guys. We realize that some users find the Key Commands window to be problematic. Well..."
    and then it could go on in some of the following ways...
    a) there are a few things that don't work properly, such as X/Y/Z... We're hoping to fix the problem in the next release of Logic..."
    or
    b) if you're trying to assign (whatever) to (a function) and it doesn't work, try this instead...
    or
    c) if you're trying to assign (whatever) to (a function) and it doesn't work, please know there's an issue with this particular aspect of the Key Commands window that will be fixed in a future release...
    That's the kind of thing I think we'd all love to see.
    Maybe that's enough venting for now. Wouldn't want to attract the attention of the "venting police" LOL

  • Voice Over Key Command Not working.

    I have a MacBook pro with Intel. I recently installed Leopard and was fooling around with voice over. I was able to turn on voice over via CommandfnF5 but was not able to turn it off via this key combination which you are supposed to be able to do. I found to Command+F5 turns voice over off. Is this problem documented anywhere? Is it just my computer? Let me know.

    New Imac 10.5.1 This seems to be related to my own problem. That is in the area of Control/Function Keys. They dont work as should(ie Ctrl-f2 highlight menu). But if I activate VoiceOver(Cmd-f5) they start working, additionally the apple menu shows 5 extra duplicated/additional items.( Mac OS X Software/Force Quit Safari/Restart/Shut Down/Log Out user).
    Changing the keyboard to an older one gets the Ctrl-f2 command working as expected.
    Applecare's computers had the same problem so it is OS issue.

  • Modifer keys do not work with mouse in Illustrator

    Below is a copy of a bug report I just submitted to Adobe. I don't suppose any users have run across this and found a solution or workaround?
    I found someone else with this problem in an archived topic thread, but the only response that poor fellow got was an accusation of not following instructions (His problem wasn't user error, BTW).
    Thanks
    ******BUG******
    Concise problem statement:
    Modifer keys do not work with mouse: For example, free transform or rotate behaviors that require "Click-Ctrl" .
    Steps to reproduce bug:
    1. select object
    2. select free transform tool
    3. left click (without releasing) a corner of the bounding box.
    4. start dragging
    5. press ctrl
    Results:
    object behaves as though the ctrl key was not pressed. i.e. the cursor does not change shape and the object scales rather than distorts.
    Expected results: The cursor should change shape as the ctrl key is pressed and the object should distort rather than scale.
    Additional information: This behavior is intermittent. Occasionally Illustrator recognizes the "Click-Ctrl" combination and behaves exactly as the help file predicts it will. The cursor changes shape and the object distorts rather than scales. I can offer no rhyme or reason for when Illustrator will behave as advertised and when it will ignore the modifier keys.
    The example above involves the free transform tool, but the problem occurs just as often with other tool behaviors that require a modifier key + mouse combination.
    Primarily using Wacom Intuos3 tablet. (with latest drivers), but have also tried combinations with microsoft mouse or both mice installed.
    Also, immediately after an occurrence Illustrator bug, left AI open, went to a different app that uses mouse+modifier (Ctrl+Click). That different app recognizes Ctrl+Click with no problems whatsoever.

    Thanks Guys,
    Good to know it's working for you. I guess that's the nature of intermittent bugs. Of course, Adobe's bug report form has a field for version, which I, of course, filled in. Sorry I didn't add it to this post. I'm using the latest version CS3 v13.0.2.
    Stephen,
    Sorry I was not more clear when I said, "For example, ...". I was talking about the modifier keys not working with several different tools. The Free Transform tool advertises functionality that is supposed to work with a "Click (down, but don't release)then hold down Ctrl" combination. The Rotate tool advertises a behavior that is supposed to work with an "Alt-Click" combination. These are just 2 examples of the modifier keys not working. I focused primarily on one example in the bug report(ctrl after and in addition to click in the free transform tool, not alt-click in the rotate tool).
    Here is what I expect(quoted from Adobe's CS3 help file)
    (From the "Distort Objects with the Free transform tool" help topic)
    "Select one or more objects.
    Select the Free Transform tool .
    Start dragging a corner handle on the bounding box (not a side handle), and then do one of the following:
    Hold down Ctrl (Windows) or Command (Mac OS) until the selection is at the desired level of distortion.
    Hold down Shift+Alt+Ctrl (Windows) or Shift+Option+Command (Mac OS) to distort in perspective."
    (from the "Rotate an object by a specific angle" help topic:)
    You can control the exact angle of rotation with the Rotate command.
    Select one or more objects.
    "Do one of the following:
    To rotate around the center point, choose Object > Transform > Rotate, or double-click the Rotate tool.
    To rotate around a different reference point, select the Rotate tool. Then Alt‑click (Windows) or Option‑click (Mac OS) where you want the reference point to be in the document window.
    Enter the rotation angle in the Angle text box...."
    These Tool based mouse-key combinations do occasionally work as they are supposed to, so I know what the expected results are supposed to look like, but whether they work or not appears to depend on the phase of the moon, the day of the week, and the color of the president's underwear.
    Other non-tool based mouse-key combinations in Illustrator work consistently all the time - Ctrl-A for Select All as just one example that always works.
    Thanks Again

  • Product key will not work with this edition of Windows 7

    I received a product key for Windows 7 Professional N whilst I was at University via Dreamspark. I'm building a new computer and when it's come to inputting the product key, it comes up saying Product key will not work with this edition of Windows 7.
    The version I installed was Windows 7 Professional using an iso and a USB. I rang the phone activation number and when I got through to a representative, I gave him the product key and he said it is valid and should be working. He transferred me to technical
    services but instead I got cut off.
    At this point I'm really not sure what the issue is, the key was for Windows 7 Professional N, I installed Windows 7 Professional and customer support confirmed it as a valid key. Am I missing something?

    Post your issue to the Windows 7 Genuine Issues forum.  Here are the instructions on how to produce a diagnostic:
    MGA
    Diagnostic Report:
    To properly analyze and solve problems with Activation and Validation, we need to see a full copy of the diagnostic report produced by the MGADiag tool (download and save to desktop -http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=52012 )
    Once downloaded, run the tool.
    Click on the Continue button, after a short time, the Continue button will change to a Copy button.
    Click on the Copy button in the tool (ignore any error messages at this point), and then paste (using either r-click/Paste, or Ctrl+V ) into your post.
    One
    Issue Per Thread:
    Most Activation and Validation issues look the same, on the surface, but can have many different causes and fixes. This is why we ask for a diagnostic report and this is also why we ask that you create your own thread for your issue (in other words,
    don't post your issue in another person's thread). 
    It just becomes too complicated to try to troubleshoot multiple different issues in the same thread.

  • Media keys still not working on my laptop with itunes 10.4.1

    Hi All,
    I have a Dell XPS 16 laptop with the latest version of itunes installed and my media keys still won't control it unless I'm currently in itunes. It's incredibly annoying as I'm sure most of you would understand. Anyone else have the same issue or a fix?
    Thanks

    I used to have the old Logitech illuminated keyboard and I thought it was because of logitech so I bought a new keyboard. (There were several issues with my old keyboard anyways) I now have the Logitech k360 and the same issue popped up. The play/pause backwards and forwards keys do not work. However on a side-note the FN hotkey to open iTunes does work. I have reinstalled drivers, software, itunes, did some other stuff and they didn't work. It's not on logitech's end.
    I just reinstalled to 10.3.1 and now I'm getting a message when I try to run the program saying "The file 'iTunes Library.itl' cannot be read because it was created by a new version of iTunes." I'm just going to uninstall and reinstall the latest version for the 3rd time now and hope Apple releases an update which fixes this compatibility issue.
    I'm running Windows vista 64.

  • I cleaned my wireless keyboard with a cloth that had a few sprays of windex on it, wiping back and forth and up and down on the keys. Now, various keys are not working. Is there a way to "reset" the keyboard to restore the keys?

    Thanks for replying (thorvsphoenix)
    The windex was sprayed on the cloth, not the keyboard. And only one or two pumps on a hand towel. No liquid seeped between the keys the towel was barely damp. You are saying the ammonia gas created the problem?
    I think It was more an issue of multiple keys being depressed at the same time that screwed up the configuration. That is why I need to "reboot" the keyboard.
