Shortcut keys in windows Safari
I've searched many topics and cant seem to find a Direct way, to change the shortcut keys in Safari for windows... I've tried searching disabling specific keys I've tried searching hot keys, shortcuts, but nothing... or the answers that are out there, are for mac saying go into terminal or something..
I have a WINDOWS computer, and am using a file to look into the .plist files that come with Safari. I am unable to find any hot key or shortcut adjustment options.
I am looking for this as well. I am currently dealing with Safari taking me back a page every time I hit my delete key, minus the times I am in a form field. I interact with a lot of Flash content and it seems that even if I am working with text when doing that I am taken back a page. I'd be very grateful for a fix to this if anyone knows how to edit this preference on Windows.

Remap shortcut key combinations in Safari
Hello all -
I'd like to use Safari - but the keyboard shortcut to change tabs is driving me crazy!!
How do I change the ⌘+1 symbol to go to the first tab as opposed to the first bookmark?!?
this is really keeping me from using Safari. I don't wan to just go left/rigth - I jump around between all my tabs.
thanksYou can set any keyboard shortcuts you like, as long they are not already mapped by another application, in System Preferences/Keyboard & Mouse/ Keyboard shortcuts.

When my most front window is a safari one and I use the shortcut key "Command N", it opens a new finder window and a new safari window at the same time. Why does it happen?
I just found the solution!

Re: Why is my Finder window popping up when I open my Safari window?
Jan 20, 2008 7:58 PM (in response to alak)
Open the General tab of the Safari preferences and correct the home page; the default page is this one. If it has become set to a folder on an FTP server or a local drive, that request will be sent to the Finder. (28252)

What is the shortcut to maximize window (full screen) which is normally done by pressing "<-->" like key on the right top corner in macbook pro ?
There's no <--> key on ANYones keyboard. (Great answer Shootist )
The other part of his answer is only applicable to certain windows (browsers specifically) as there is NO system wide maximize command in the manner you are asking.
Apple's "maximize" function (green +) simply maximizes the window to the content, not the screen.
For other keyboard shortcuts (and of course they may be outdated) try: this -
Brightness shortcut keys not working in Windows 8 or 8.1
I'm no longer able to use the brightness shortcut keys after I've installed the Lenovo power management tool in Windows 8 on a Ideapad U300s.
When the Lenovo power management tool is NOT installed on the system, pressing the shortcut keys brings up the Windows UI in the upper left hand corner of the screen and the display bridghness is adjusted accordingly.
However, as soon as the Lenov PM software is installed, the Windows brightness indicator shows up ONCE and I can no longer adjust the brightness with the shortcut buttons.Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
At the moment, there aren't any Boot Camp drivers ready for Windows 8, so it's normal that you have problems. Wait until Apple updates Boot Camp drivers, normally with a OS X update -
Hello all
Question: When in Safari > Reset Safari option > A pop-up dialog box appears with two buttons at the bottom of the screen either CANCEL or RESET
My question is, CANCEL is highlighted Blue by default. Is there a shortcut key to select RESET without having to move the mouse cursor over? I tried TAB or moving the right arrow key over but it doesn't do anything.Probably not. It's designed that way so that the user does not unintentionally reset Safari. Cancel is the default choice, and you have to purposefully click on the Reset button.

Message shortcut key does not work in Safari
Hi there,
I've a shortcut key specified for sending links through Message app while I'm in Safari. (Command + Ctrl + M).
It appears in the system preferences and I can even see the shortcut symbol in Safari but it simply doesn't work. I has worked randomly for sometime but does not work anymore. (Changing the keyboard combination hasn't helped either)
Any idea ?Hi,
Try shutting down the iMac. Disconnect the keyboard. Wait about 5 minutes. Reconnect the keyboard and restart the iMac. See if the Return key works now.
If not, since it's so new, take the keyboard back for a replacement.

Shortcut for downloads window in Safari does not work
Hi everybody,
My shortcut for downloads window in Safari (command-option-L) does not work anymore, when i press that combination of buttons, iTunes appears in my screen.
Can i do something to bring back my shortcut?
SantiagoOk...
Try troubleshooting the Safari .plist file.
Quit Safari.
Open a Finder window. Select your Home Folder in the Sidebar on the left. It has a small house icon. Then open the Library folder then the Preferences folder.
Move the com.apple.Safari.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Desktop. Now launch Safari. Try the keyboard shortcut for the Downloads window. If it didn't help, just move that .plist file back to the Preferences folder.
Also, go to your Safari menu bar click Safari/Reset Safari. Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset. Restart your Mac. That might help too. -
Using Mac OS on multiple monitor is great, but after removing external monitor (2nd monitor) usually windows position originally on the external monitor doesn't get re-positioned to default monitor. Is there any shortcut key or utilities that can reset wi
Got the "apple firewire ntsc" choice to show up even if grayed out and "missing" under "audio/visual" menus by recreating choices in Easy Setup under "final cut pro" MENU thank GOODNESS because I was reading horror stories on here about this under another thread with someone trashing preferences, reinstalling and the works and still not getting it to show up...on my search now for an analog/digital converter up at b&h...find it odd that the s video connector wouldn't show the crt monitor when I put both displays through the 3870...I switched it back to see if it worked again when only the one dell monitor display was there and there it is again mirroring the screen display on my desktop...just can't be seen as an "external monitor" in fcp...couldn't find anything specific in the shane ross threads to this. I'm sad the program doesn't just see the s video connection though the 3870 though my computer does fine and will query up at b&h in regard to what might be affordable as far as a digital/analog converter. It's also weird in itself that when I put the two dell monitors on the one card my computer no longer could see the s video crt connection...makes no sense. Will report in later as to what I discover up at b&h as I'm sure there's a world of people out there using this sony crt monitor still even into the upgrades with computers and software so I imagine therein lies the solution. Thanks again and I'll report in as to what hardware might be suggested for me.

Shortcut keys doesn't work on Satellite L755-18Z - Windows 7 64bit
Hi everybody,
I'm trying to start an application by pressing an assigned shortcut key combination, but nothing happens.
Maybe it has something to do with some of the TOSHIBA utilities installed on the laptop?Hmmmm.....custom application? You know that Toshiba doesnt support third part software?
Sorry but I think nobody here can help you. If you have problems with Toshiba related stuff we can discuss about that but usage of some custom applications cannot be supported.
We dont even know what do you use on your notebook. -
How to Open a Specific Folder in the Finder via Shortcut Key
I'm sure this has been covered elsewhere, so sorry for not finding it...
Is it possible to assign a shortcut key to open a specific folder with Automator or AppleScript? There are 4-5 commonly used folders buried 10-11 levels deep on a server and I'd love to have a shortcut key to open those particular folders in the Finder.
Could you give me some assistance?
Thanks!QuickKeys may work, or you can look on http://www.versiontracker.com or http://www.macupdate.com for other alternatives.
Another option is to create aliases to those folders and store the aliases in a local folder which you can place on your Dock, the Finder window sidebar or toolbar. -
Shortcut Key in JInternalFrame
Hi,
I have an application that has multiple JInternalFrames displayed within split panes. I am trying to set shortcut keys to cycle through the visible JInternalFrame. I have a Menu Item oCycleWindows, on which I called setAccelerator() with Ctrl+Shift+M. In th emenu handler for this item, I have defined a function that checks the current focussed internal frame, and accordingly picks the next one to get the focus.
My problem is as follows: on clicking Ctrl+Shift+M, I am able to see that the next window has focus (the title bar color changes), but when I use the up/down keys to navigate within the newly focussed window, actually the navigation happens in the previous window....
I have a tree view at the left, and two views at the right, and going from the tree view to any of the right views sometimes works correctly, sometimes doesn't (in fact i believe this happens every alternate time I shift to the non-tree view). Here, I have tables in the right views, and I try to select different rows using up/down keys once the right view has the focus, but the navigation occurs in the Tree view, with previous/next node getting selected instead!
The funniest part is, the problem isn't there if the shortcut defined is 'F6', but for any other shortcut (F12, F11, Ctrl+M, Ctrl+Shift+M, Ctrl+K, CTrl+Shift+K etc.) this problem is seen.
Does anyone have ANY idea why this happens? I tried to look up the bugs DB, but couldn't find anything specific to this...
Sample Code:
JMenuItem oCycWin = new JMenuItem("Cycle Windows");
oCycWin.setMnemonic('C');
oCycWin.setAccelerator(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_M, ActionEvent.CTRL_MASK | ActionEvent.SHIFT_MASK, true));
//oCycWin.setAccelerator(KeyStroke.getKeyStroke(KeyEvent.VK_F6, 0, true));
oCycWin.addActionListener(new ActionListener()
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
/* oCurWin is a JInternalFrame object (extended class) that tracks the
current focussed window
if(oCurWin.ID == 1)
oCurWin.ID = 2;
else if(oCurWin.ID == 2)
oCurWin.ID = 3;
else
oCurWin.ID = 1;
oCurWin.setVisible(true);
try
oCurWin.setSelected(true);
catch(java.beans.PropertyVetoException e)
System.out.println("Can select oCurWin");
});This code works fine for accelerator set as F6, and when we shift to the tree view. But sometimes on shifting focus to any of the right views, with accelerator not F6, although the right view appears to be focussed due to change in title bar color, the navigation continues in the tree view.
Thanks...
ShefaliHi,
have you tried requesting the focus on your newly selected internal frame ? -
This happens both in Windows XP and Windows 7. Firefox is the only application that does not allow this consistently (this works with MS-Word, Google Chrome, Notepad etc.).
Yes, but {Ctrl + N} is useful only when you are already in Firefox. I meant quickly launching Firefox while using another application via a user-assigned shortcut key. For example, I am writing a text in MS-Word and I want to run a quick Wikipedia search; now, if Firefox is already running in the background, my shortcut for Firefox (e.g Ctrl + Alt + 9) won't do anything - it will only launch Firefox, if it is the first Firefox window to be opened. Thanks anyway though!

If I open too many Bookmarked pages into tabs my browser will hang and then sometimes crash or close unexpectedly.
If I bring up task manager or use the Alt + Tab I can navigate to the window and right-click and choose restore to allow me to see the window again. This needs to be done if I load more than 10 pages at once. Is there a way to choose to prevent loading of all opened tabs and then choose which tabs I'm currently working with to load the webpage? I would like to know how to use a shortcut key on my keyboard to select all tabs as ctrl + A does not work and then escape or another key tells to stop all pages from loading in each tab as with all the ads, gifs, videos, and internet spam keeps growing it is too much of a strain to have multiple webpages opened in tabs on the browser.
I use Win XP SP2 and I am eagerly waiting a solution as it has been an issue with even previous versions of Firefox however IE could only have about 3 tabs opened and then would crash that is why I stick with Firefox as my browser of choice.Just saw your posting from yesterday - https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/876195
