Sending Keyboard Shortcuts to another computer

I've just updated a bunch of customized keyboard shortcuts on my MBP and I want to simply copy these to my iMac without having to rekey them all. I am hoping that someone could just point me towards a file that gets updated on the mac system somewhere when new keyboard shortcuts are added. I assumed it would be in the user / library but I haven't found anything that looks promising.
Also - I have a mobileMe account which has the preferences setting to be 'synced' however, I ran the sync manually on bother computers and the shortcuts are not on the iMac so that doesn't seem to work either. I recall that mobileMe only syncs settings that don't change very often - there doesn't seem to be a discreet way to control what does and does not get sync'd when it comes to settings.
Can anyone help me with that? Thanks in advance.

Ok, I figured it out ... and here's what I did:
When I originally copied over the PLIST file to my iMac I didn't have a single shortcut for PathFinder ... so that's why nothing showed up. So I removed the entire list for PathFinder, then added back a single shortcut "Command + R" for refresh ... then I closed PathFinder and re-copied that plist again. With the entry for PathFinder now in the keyboard preferences, this time ... the rest of my shortcuts showed up.
So if you DO NOT have an entry for the application you're copying preferences for - the new shortcuts being copied won't show up. Best to make a single entry first, then overwrite your preferences for that app ... then ... everything works!
Thanks for your help V.K.

Message Send Keyboard Shortcut

Sometimes the Message->Send keyboard shortcut works and other times it doesn't. I can't really pinpoint why or under what circumstances this occurs. Does anyone else experience this?
Cheers

That thread did not help. There does not seem to be another app hijacking my shortcut. I did change the default shortcut from cmd-S to cmd-return. I did make it specific to Mail.app
When I Quit and reopen Mail, it seems to work. When is does eventually stops working and I press the shortcut, I get the dung sound. This is the same sound as if you were to hit a shortcut thats invalid.
This is getting rather annoying. I actually forgot I posted this because I was planning on posting the same question today :o)

Please, give me the steps. Thank!

Are you asking about replication with Data Guard or Streams or something else?
In what edition and version of the product?
Anything can be transferred from point "A" to point "B". What you are specifically asking about is not clear.

Is there a way to send PP renders to another computer on the network?

Is there a way I can send renders out of Premiere Pro CS6 to another computer on the network that has Adobe Media Encoder CS6 installed?

You'd have to have PP installed on the other computer as well, and copy all the media and other assets over to that computer, along with the PP project file, and then start PP on that second computer and send to AME from there.
In short, no.

I've used a terminal command to change default send keyboard shortcut and now it doesn't work at all!

My friend provided me with a Terminal command allow me to use Cmd+Enter to send an email (muscle memory from Outlook, hard to forget!)
Command was:
defaults write com.apple.mail NSUserKeyEquivalents -dict-add "Send" "@\\U21a9"
Did that, and it didn't add the Cmd+Enter instruction but removed the Cmd+Shift+D instruction, so I had NO keyboard shortcut. Then Cmd+Enter started working. For a while. Now I'm back to getting the irritating error bleep sound, and having no functional keyboard shortcut for sending mail.
Does anybody have any advice?

Try
defaults delete com.apple.mail NSUserKeyEquivalents
Then, relaunch Mail.

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.

Keyboard Shortcuts Stop Working

When using Photoshop CC, my keyboard shortcuts are not working properly. For example, I will be cruising along on a painting and then my command-z will stop working. I then have to open the history tab and manually undo my last mark. Or I will attempt to switch from brush to eraser by hitting the E key and it doesn't switch. I ended up marking instead of erasing and am just doubling my work. I should mention I am using a Wacom Intiuos 3 tablet.
This problem is crippling my work flow and is making the program near obsolete for my purposes. Please help!

I'm having a similar issue. After a short while working, my shortcuts stop working. I notice usually first with "undo" (cmd+z) then can't switch to simple tools like "eraser" (e) and feel like I'm suddenly imagining things...
The workaround I've found so far is that I need to click on Photoshop with my mouse pointer, like the the top window bar, to kind of get my mac focused on photoshop again, then a keyboard shortcut will work, then sometime shortly after, while working, my keyboard shortcuts will stop registering again. I hope this is helpful for elihalpert. I hope this is the same issue so that there's better hope of it being found, duplicated, and resolved.
This is really aggravating. I haven't changed my equipment or workflow. I have updated to Yosemite since the last time I recall working trouble-free. But I'm fairly certain I'm not accidentally clicking out of photoshop or keyboard shortcutting to another program in any way. I really hope someone sees this and can get to the bottom of it!

Keyboard shortcut for sending messages on Mail suddenly stops working

I've created a keyboard shortcut (Command + Return) specifically for sending manssages on Mail. When I open Mail, this keyboard shortcut works perfectly but suddenly it stops working.
If I close and reopen Mail, the keyboard shortcut starts to work again, but for a while.
I'm using OS X 10.9.1 and Mail 7.1 (1827).

Howdy Guilherme
Give this a try if you haven't already.
System Preferences
Keyboard
Shortcuts
At the bottom of the left panel go to:
App Shortcuts
If Mail.app isn't there, add it.
Under it add Send.
Now choose your key combo i.e.
⌘↵
Worked for me mail Version 7.1 (1827) running OS X 10.9.1.

I can no longer use the keyboard shortcuts, 'command C' and 'command V'. Did I inadvertently do something to my keyboard or computer that caused this? Is there a way to fix it?

I can no longer use the keyboard shortcuts, 'command C' and 'command V'. Did I inadvertently do something to my keyboard or computer that caused this? Is there a way to fix it?

You can also check in System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts, make sure that custom shortcuts were not created using those same commands. If ones were, they could be creating a conflict. Step throuogh each of the items in the left list, checking the array presented in the right pane for each.

When using Firefox Sync on multiple devices, I used to be able to 'send' a tab from one computer to another. Is this still possible? If so, how?

When using Firefox Sync on multiple devices, I used to be able to 'send' a tab from one computer to another. Is this still possible? If so, how?
I don't mean the ability to see what tabs are open on another device (I know how to do this). But if I am at work and find something that I want to read at home, it would be helpful to 'send' the tab to my home PC so that when I return home, it will automatically open that tab for me.

Can anyone help?

Sending multitrack Project from FCP to STP on another computer doesn't work

Hello,
I attempted to search the forums but can't find my specific problem mentioned. I apologize if I overlooked it!
I am attempting to send a Soundtrack Pro Multitrack Project from Final Cut Pro 6.01 to Soundtrack Pro 2.01 on another computer. When I do, the video comes through fine but the audio fails to transfer over.
Here's what I did:
First I open the Final Cut Project, highlight all the clips in the sequence to send and click "Send to Soundtrack Pro MultiTrack Project". I select all options including the "Fully Rendered Video" Option. This project opens up great in Sound Track Pro on the original computer. In Soundtrack Pro I "save as" and make sure I select "Collect Audio Files", "Collect unused audio files", & "Collect Video File". As far as I have read, this should be all I need to make sure all of the audio and video clips transfer together with the STP file.
However, when I place this folder (including the media files) on a external hard drive and transfer it on to our other computer (set up for audio recording and editing) and open it up in STP I get no audio. The clips visually transfer and all the clip lengths match up with the video, however there is no waveform showing. A straight line at 0db is all that shows up. I check the clips in the bin and they show the same file size as on the first computer. When I select an audio clip and take a look at the actions tab it shows the name of the clip and under it it says "insert silence" (which was not there on the original computer). When I de-select the insert silence the audio still does not play (the straight line on the waveform disappears). I try deleting the "insert silence" action and the same thing happens.
I have tried doing this operation mulitple ways with the same result. Am I doing something wrong? The only thing I can think of is the file starts out on OSX 10.4.11 and is transfered over to leopard 10.5. I just tried doing the reverse operation (creating the file from the audio computer and sending it to the video computer) and everything works fine. No idea what this means. I need this to work the other way around so I can begin the extremely intensive audio work on this film while our editor continues the video edits so thank you very much for any help that you can lend me. It is greatly appreciated.
-Matt

Could be a difference in OS's causing the problem, but I can't say for sure. You could try using the OMF export option instead. I almost guarantee it will work.

Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the presently open web page in another tab? It used to be Ctrl + N.

Is there a keyboard shortcut to open the presently open web page in another tab? It used to be Ctrl + N. This shortcut now opens a Tab with the home page instead of duplicating the web page I'm on.

Firefox has always opened new tabs in a blank page, so I'm guessing that the way you had it before was added by an extension.
If you to to Tools > Add-ons > Extensions, are there any extensions disabled?
In any case, you can still do this with a mouse shortcut. Hold down the Ctrl key as you drag a tab to an empty area on the tab bar.

Another "edit in photoshop" and keyboard shortcut question

I have both PSCS6 32 bit and 64 bit installed on my computer (usual default installation). When I next installed LR4, it automatically picked PSCS6 64 bit as the default external editor without asking my preference.
I always use PSCS6 32 bit and not the 64 bit version.
While I can add the PSCS6 32 bit program as an "additional external editor" and access it from a right click contextual menu for editing an image from LR4, I cannot use the convenient Ctrl + E keyboard shortcut since that will always launch the unwanted PSCS6 64 bit program.
Is there a way to reestablish this keyboard shortcut convenience for my 32 bit program?
Thanks in advance!

Scott,
There is a registry hack you could try:
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/multi/edit-photoshop-command-missing-photoshop.html
That's for making PS show up when it doesn't show up at all, but there's a place to add the path to the executable that you could modify to point to the 32-bit version. You might want to do a checkpoint for System Restore before you start.
