Superscript Key Command Doesn't Work

I can get the subscript key command to work, but I can't get the superscript key command to work. I'm using the key command Apple provides under the Keyboard Shorcuts help file in Pages (Control-Command–plus sign (+)). I could just use the menu command, but I'd prefer to use the key command. I'm using Pages on my MacBook Pro, if that makes any difference.
Is there any way to get the key command to work so I don't have to use the menu command?
If it helps, I'm using Pages '09 version 4.0.2.

  • Superscript keyboard shortcut doesn't work on my powerbook

    Does anyone know why the keyboard shortcut for superscript (cntrl-command-+) wouldn't work yet the subscript (cntrl-command--) does work??

    On U.S. keyboards, the + key is really shift-=, that is, to get a plus you must hold down the shift key.
    Thus, ctl-cmd-+ is really ctl-cmd-shift-=. Give that a try.
    (For computers with a numeric keypad, or for keyboard layouts which have an unshifted +, you can just use the + key instead of shift-=).
    As a side note for a related key equivalent, in Pages 2.0 (but not 1.0), cmd-+ or cmd-shift-= will increase font size. But this is not the case for superscript.

  • Visually handicap, needs to increase font size in logic pro, Command  doesn't work

    Hi,
         I'm visually handicapped, and new to logic-pro.  I'm having a miserable time reading the internal logic-pro fonts.  Command + doesn't work, and I can't find any preferrence or settings options that affect the default font sizes, any ideas?

    Unfortunately you cannot change the font size of the main fonts in Logic...
    However, there are a couple of other settings you may not be aware of...
    1) Under Logic Pro's preferences... go to Display
    Now you can change the size of the playhead and Local Windows under the General Tab
    You can increase the size of the Logic plugin windows/fonts sizes under the Mixer Tab (I have mine set to 200%)
    Note: This setting does not apply to 3rd party plugins.. only Logic's own plugins...
    Under the Piano Roll tab you can change the size of Bar/Beats/Division Lines...
    2) Using the screen zoom command... Hold down control and scroll on your mouse... will zoom in the screen...
    Note: as you are using Mountain Lion there is also a new setting under System Preferences/Accessability
    Choose Zoom on the left hand side
    Now choose Zoom Style/Picture in Picture and instead of a full screen zoom it provides you with a magnifying glass of sorts to just magnify the area arund your mouse pointer. I find this setting very useful....
    Hope this helps...

  • HT1338 Safari Hide command doesn't work

    Now my Safari 6.0 "Hide Safari" command doesn't work (whether clicking the command-H or going up under the Safari menu and down to the Hide Safari command.
    Any suggestions anyone? I am about one more issue away from abandoning Safari altogether and just using Chrome and Firefox.

    I've made a number of iWeb websites. I notice that I can't "Command +" the text larger or smaller. Is this a function of an iWeb site .. or is there something I'm missing?
    What browser are you talking about? If Safari, is it the same with the other major browsers (Firefox and Opera)? Could you provide the url of an example?

  • Bash command doesn't work after update

    I just ran pacman -Syu as normal, but some got many errors like below:
    ( 3/11) upgrading binutils
    error: command failed to execute correctly
    and every package except kernel-headers got a error message like that. and then i found most of my bash command doesn't work any more, just like ls and vim. However, some others like pwd and cd still work correctly.
    Any one any ideal?

    is this the cause?
    Yes.
    I've done that before and got into the same problem when updating glibc, the lesson here, don't mess with the default directory structure.

  • Unhide library command doesn't work

    Unhide library command doesn't work in terminal

    Open the Terminal application in your Utilities and paste the following at the prompt:
    sudo chflags nohidden ~/Library
    Press RETURN. Enter your admin password when prompted. It will not be echoed.
    The "sudo" may not even be required, but if it is and you don't use it, then you'll get an error message. Just try again using the above command.

  • Key-code change... from windows to mac... the old key-code doesn´t work

    I bought a CS for Windows and used it on Windows.
    Now I bought a Mac and want to use it,
    but the key-code doesn´t work.
    How can I get a key-code wich works???

    Neither the keycode nor the Windows version of the software will work on a Mac.
    You can only swap platforms for the latest version of Adobe products, which is currently CS6.

  • How do I fix a command key that doesn't work?

    I bought a new iMac in December  with the keyboard that comes with the system.  Now my command key doesn't work. I've tried reseting to defaults in case I did something without realizing it, but it hasn't worked.  The really strange thing is that it started working again once, then a few days later stopped again.  Any one know what my problrem might be?  It could be the keyboard itself, but if so, I'll be very disappointed!

    Do SMC reset, in order for it to work it make take 2-3 attempts. You can find instructions by clicking Intel iMac SMC and PRAM resets

  • Unix Command doesn't work in Tiger

    Hi,
    I've got labs of eMacs that I'm finally upgrading to Tiger. My image seems to work fine, but I'm running into a weird quirk with my "Send Unix" commands via ARD. We're doing NWEA testing and LOVE the unix commands because we can login to machines, turn on TestTaker, login to TestTaker, and select the correct test (math or reading) and the right version of the test.
    The script below works fine on a panther eMac.
    osascript
    tell application "System Events"
    keystroke "1" using command down
    delay 3.0
    keystroke ASCII character 31
    delay 2.0
    keystroke return
    keystroke "n" using command down
    end tell
    On my Tiger machines, the command stops on the:
    "Keystroke ASCII character 31" line (this should arrow down to next test version).
    A report window comes up in ARD with this error message:
    86:104: execution error: System Events got an error: 31 doesn't understand the ASCII character message. (-1708)
    This used to work perfectly, but now I can't get ASCII 31 (or arrow down to work). The real killer is that other techs in my school district have eMacs running tiger with same commands that work (some have to arrow down 16 times to get to correct test version). The other commands (like command 1 and returns, command n) all work fine! Hate to have to touch 80 machines each day to select proper test version when we log in.
    Any Suggestions????

    Try this form of the line:
    keystroke (ASCII character of 31)
    That's worked for some people. Hope it works for you. If it doesn't work as given, try without the parentheses.
    Regards.

  • First key pressed doesn't work?

    Strange, but lately, I would say about 85% of the time, the first key I hit on my keyboard doesn't work. It doesn't matter what key, letter or number, it doesn't work. I'll look up at what I've typed and the first letter is always missing. It's turning into a huge nuisance and I don't think it's me not pressing hard enough or something silly like that, because it happens so very often and I certainly am not changing the way I type for the last 30 years or so.
    Any ideas what could be causing it? It's as if it takes a second for the keyboard to realize it's being used and by then, I've typed on by.
    I'm using the standard Apple keyboard that came with the G5, but it's not the original. This one I've had for about a year and a half.
    tia.

    I had your issue on two Macs for over a year. A combination of the following cleared it up for me;
    Try using Disk Utility to do a Disk Repair, as shown in this link, while booted up on your install disk.
    You could have some directory corruption. Let us know what errors Disk Utility reports and if DU was able to repair them.
    Then I Repaired Permissions in DU using the version on your hard drive.
    Then I downloaded the
    Combo Update, yours would be the 10.5.4 Combo
    You can apply it right over the one you have now with no trouble--use the link, not Software Updates version.
    Repaired Permissions and made sure all the other updates for my Mac's were up to date.
    Then I went further with it, and used a utility you may not have.
    I used and would recommend DiskWarrior.
    After all these actions the issue I had (yours) disappeared. Some here have said one of the recent updates dealt with this agravating condition, and if so, thank you Apple!
    I feel my tips are what fixed it for me. I was a big contributor to two enormous threads on this problem, and have read every post on the subject.
    Hope this helps.

  • Key Commands - Assignment not working?

    I'm trying to add key commands to have everything 'at hand' but they get listed and don't work.
    Example:
    I open key commands, search for 'automation', select "View Track Automation" and assign it 'Control + T'. It's in there, it is also in the arrange window's view menu. But when I type 'Control + T' nothing happens.
    Still works in the pull down menu.
    Am I missing something?

    Im having a similar problem. i assign apple space to the 'play from beginning' command but it doesnt work. im following the instructions in a the martin sitter logic pro book so i dont believe im doing it wrong.
    if it was already assigned to something else then why would it let you assign it to a different command?
    anyhow, its clearly not in my case - when i press the keys all that happens is the cursors toggles to scissors. in fact it does that when only press the apple key. So its just ignoring my assignment, is it?
    of course, i know it doesnt 'ignore' it in the irrational sense i imply - there must be a reason. i want to know what it is.

  • Restart command doesn't work

    I believe the following problem began when I updated to 10.4.9. I can't be absolutely sure but the timing seems about right. I've since updated to 10.4.10 in an effort to fix it, but haven't succeeded.
    The problem is that when I select the Restart command in the Apple menu the computer will begin the process, all open apps will be quit, the finder will quit, my desktop will go to blue to a few seconds. Then the monitor will go blank. Then nothing after that. I DO NOT get the startup chime. The machine is still powered on, the light above the power button is still lit. If I leave the machine for any length of time the fans will start speeding up gradually until they're at full tilt. After 4 or 5 minutes it becomes obvious that nothing is going to happen, so I need to manually shutdown via the power button.
    Does anyone know what logs I can post here to help in the diagnosis? This also happens if any installer application needs to perform a restart, ie Software Update.
    Thanks,
    Chris

    Hi chris catalano-
    I have had updates make my machine do some crazy stuff just as you describe. I would actually let it go for 15 or 20 minutes before declaring it a no-go.
    If that doesn't work, try resetting the SMU and see if that helps: How to reset the SMU on a Power Mac G5 (Late 2004) or Power Mac G5 (Late 2005)
