"Update Link" keyboard shortcut

Is there a keyboard shortcut to automatically update modified links? I couldn't find it in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts, maybe there's a different way?
Thanks!

Try this....
- go to the menu Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts
- in the popup window, select Panel Menus
- scroll down the section that starts with Links... until you get to Links: Update Link
- set a command key of your choice
- click 'assign'
- another window will appear saying you can't modify the default set - and do you want to create a new set based on the default. Click yes
- in the new popup window, name the set, and click OK
- click OK in the open window
... you should be good to go.
good luck!

Keyboard shortcuts cleared after updating to ios 8.0.2

After updating my iPhone 6 from IOS8 to IOS 8.0.2, the keyboard shortcuts have been cleared out. I've tried to reset the Keyboard Dictionary but no change.

Many others have the same problem. They say misery loves company. Does this help?

System Preferences Keyboard Shortcuts

Why oh why didn't Apple update the Keyboard Shortcuts System Preference for the new thin keyboard. It still shows F12 as Dashboard, not F4. I tried changing it to F4 but couldn't. It is also screwing up my Wacom tablet. I tried assigning one of the buttons to F4 but it didn't work. I tried F12, didn't do anything. Re-assigned the keyboard shortcut to F19 but the Wacom preferences don't go up to F19. (am using most recent Wacom drivers.)

Thanks, V.K., for your comments.

not for me. it's both displayed and treated differently. I suspect what you are seeing is a byproduct of using a haxie such as Menu Master.
no it's not. it's treated differently.
In Leopard, Menu Master let me assign Command+Enter to Address Book > Edit Card. When I attempt the same using Keyboard Shortcuts, both Command+Return and Command+Enter are displayed as Command plus a "return arrow." After that, in Address Book, both Command+Return and Command+Enter invoke the "Edit Card" menu action.
not for me.
if you want to use those keys in the shortcuts use one of the many 3rd party app launchers. any one of them will let you do this: Qucisilver, Butler, Spark, Launchbar, ikeys, quickeys etc.
I've been using QuicKeys since the beginning of time, and I have some experience with Butler and LaunchBar. They're useful for what they do. But, as far as I know, none add keyboard shortcuts that are displayed directly in the menus. That display feature is what makes Menu Master and Systems Prefs > Keyboard Shortcuts so attractive.
that's because Menu Master is a haxie. none of the other programs mentioned are. you want such functionality you are going have to use a haxie. personally - i stay away from them as they destabilize the system.
When I'm considering new shortcuts, I use KeyCue to display all current shortcuts in a single display. KeyCue now displays QuicKeys shortcuts in the same display, which is a big help.

Audacious: keyboard shortcuts not working anymore

Hi all
After one of the last Audacious updates, my keyboard shortcuts (like b for going to the next track) in Audacious are not working anymore. I have activated Global Hotkey as well as Gnome Shortkeys, but the shortcuts are not back. Did anyone experience the same issue? How do I get my shortcuts back?
Best regards
Martin

http://audacious-media-player.org/news/ … 2-released
Some keyboard shortcuts have been changed in the GTK interface, since many of the old shortcuts interfered with typing
(for example, binding the spacebar without modifiers to “pause”). Look around in the drop-down menus to find the new shortcuts.

Can't use the keyboard shortcuts in Photoshop CS6 when updating Mavericks

Can't use the keyboard shortcuts in Photoshop CS6 when updating Mavericks

Thanks everyone. What worked for me was a version of the suggestions above. I had the problem with the ≠ character appearing in all my Photoshop CS6 keyboard shortcuts and rendering them largely unusable. However, I don't have any other keyboards besides US English enabled on my Mac. I do have Spell Catcher installed, which works through the keyboard input method. So, I switched from Spell Catcher back to English (with the US flag), launched Photoshop and presto, my keyboard shortcuts were restored, absent that obnoxious ≠ symbol. Once in Photoshop, if I reselect Spell Catcher, the ≠ symbol returns so I have to run Photoshop without the help of Spell Catcher - or forego the use of keyboard shortcuts while it's on. Since the developer of Spell Catcher passed away last year there will be no more updates to the otherwise very useful utility. Apparently this keyboard shortcut problem in the various guises reported here is linked to some element of the OS X input method in Mavericks, as Photoshop seems to manifest the issue in relation to one specific input source or another. This is the first application in my experience to have a problem with Spell Catcher in OS X 10.9. So I will continue to use it, except in Photoshop. Spell Catcher was never updated for Mountain Lion or Mavericks so people like me will have to use it "at our own risk" as the saying goes. Be that as it may, it does appear to be a bug in Photoshop that's at the root of this matter as different people have somewhat different problems with the OS X input method - not that I expect either Adobe or Apple to do anything about it.

Update Link, Update All Links, SHORTCUT?

Found a great way to work live, on the iPad, from the computer.
BUT, Adobe being Adobe, it's not perfect.
If I click to "Edit Original" and then edit, and save, I must switch back to InDesign before it actually does the update.
That's problem 1. I'd really rather not have to make that switch back. Any way around that?
Second, haivng switched back to InDesign to get that "live" update, if I [Command + Tab] back to the editing app, the "live" updating link is lost, so the next change I make I must go back to InDesign and use the TINY little button at the top of the screen to find the Update Link choice.
I'd much rather a Keyboard Shortcut for Update All Links, rather than having to deal with this.
Better yet, constant live updates would be epic. Anyways to do this?

Looks like you have a problem with understanding what I'm searching for.
Rob Day wrote:
you want Update All to have a default key command, but I don't.
Argh, there's part one of your problem. I don't want it... I was looking for it, assuming it would be already assigned, and not wanting to try to find how to assign one of my own if it already existed. This was made harder, ironically, by the fact it was already assigned, so there was no hint to the shortcut when seeing the Update options.
Rob Day wrote:
You want everything to automatically get updated, I don't—
There's part two of your problem. I don't want that for everyone, always, I just want it as a possible state, and to turn it on.
Rob Day wrote:
If you really think links should not have a modified state the scripting engine is comprehensiv
And there's part 3. I don't want to remove their modified state. I just want for an "auto-update".
Now, where's that scrpting reference? Does scripting have access to things like auto-update of Links? I'm guessing not, since there would be some possible security problems exposed by such a thing being able to be implemented by parties outside Adobe.

I can no longer do keyboard shortcuts since latest update.

I am running Firefox 34.0.5 on a Windows 7 computer. Firefox updated the other day and I can no longer use my Edit keyboard shortcuts. (ie CTRL V etc) I read an article telling how to correct this with a Mac computer, how do you do it with a Windows computer?

Firefox 35 was released yesterday. Please use Help > About Firefox and run a Check for Updates to get the latest version. Then see if that issue is resolved.

How to create a keyboard shortcut in firefox for email link

I would like to create a keyboard shortcut for firefox for the EMail Link menu item. I specified shift-Command-S as the keyboard shortcut. When I hit the key sequence the File on the menubar flashes but the Email Link window never opens. Does anyone have a clue as to what I need to do to get this to work or is there a reason it doesn't work. I do use Outlook for my mail client. That shouldn't be a problem because when I manually select EMail Link from the File menu Outlook is properly used.
thanks for your help

You need automator to create services, as detailed in http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2241804 a four-parter by Sal Saghoian on *Automation in Snow Leopard*
This, describes old and new automator—services stuff:
http://www.reynoldsftw.com/2009/08/automator-and-finder-interactions-in-os-x-10- 6/
Alternatively, just save the script
*+tell application "Firefox" to activate+*
as an app, put it on the Dock, and click it to activate it. However, seems simpler just to put the FF icon on the Dock and a single click launches it. Why would you want a service or AS to do the same thing?

No keyboard shortcuts in 2nd language keyboard after 10.5.6 update

I decided to take the plunge from 10.5.2 to 10.5.6. My only grievance for 10.5.2 was that Mail changed the extension of attached files if the filename contained non-latin characters (a known bug which was killed in 10.5.6). I took all necessary pre-update steps, namely:
SuperDuper! backup (SmartUpdate)
TimeMachine backup
Repaired permissions
Reboot from external USB drive; Repaired main system (internal) hard disk
Reboot off main drive in Safe Boot mode and install of OS X update, then finally,
Repaired permissions.
Now my Mac doesn't accept keyboard shortcuts of any kind in any application if the input language is Greek (it used to until this morning, in all incarnations of OS X from 10.2 to 10.5.2). Tried in two user accounts. I also created a new user account, same trouble.
If I add another language in the Input menu, e.g. Arabic, then the keyboard shortcuts work for that; still not for the Greek that used to work until now.
Gotta run, but I'll post back later with some further info on this issue (I really must dash out, and I haven't got time to elaborate right now...)
BTW, the Greek I'm using is not the one from the Apple install, but the one from here.

BTW, the Greek I'm using is not the one from the Apple install, but the one from here.
You probably need to ask vodkatini. I think that's a hack for using non-Unicode Greek with old apps. Do you really still need it? Apple won't make any effort to adjust OS X to accomodate such things.
Do the standard Apple Greek keyboards work OK?
You could also ask on Greek Mac boards where people might be using the vodkatini stuff. Or go back to your last OS where it worked.

Why does "Link Media" behave differently when used as a keyboard shortcut vs when right clicked???

Not sure whether anyone else is encountering this, but the "Link Media" command behaves differently when right clicked as opposed to when used as a keyboard shortcut.
When you right click to select that option for an offline file, you get only the corresponding disconnected source media. But when you execute "Link Media" via a keyboard shortcut, PP brings up a huge list of all other offline media. Why does it only do that when you use the keyboard shortcut for "Link Media" but not when you right click "Link Media".
I'd like to get the Link Media command to behave via the keyboard shortcut the same way it behaves when right clicked. I don't want to have to deal with relinking a hundred other files, but just the single offline file I'm working on.

Among the alternatives not mentioned... Using a TiVo DVR, rather than the X1; a Roamio Plus or Pro would solve both the concern over the quality of the DVR, as well as providing the MoCA bridge capability the poster so desperately wanted the X1 DVR to provide. (Although the TiVo's support only MoCA 1.1.) Just get a third-party MoCA adapter for the distant location. Why the hang-up on having a device provided by Comcast? This seems especially ironic given the opinions expressed regarding payments over time to Comcast. If a MoCA 2.0 bridge was the requirement, they don't exist outside providers. So couldn't the poster have simply requested a replacement XB3 from the local office and configured it down to only providing MoCA bridging -- and perhaps as a wireless access point? Comcast would bill him the monthly rate for the extra device, but such is the state of MoCA 2.0. Much of the OP sounds like frustration over devices providing capabilities the poster *thinks* they should have.

Keyboard shortcuts problem issue after updating to 6.0.5

Directly after installing this update, Command+SpaceBar on the Mac no longer temporarily selects the zoom tool? Not sure what others keyboard shortcuts might be broken, but this is a very standard one. I have a book due on Monday!!! Any help would be appreciated? Thanks!
Not sure if related, but my computer started lagging and freezing directly after installing this update, and continues to the next day, even after repairing permissions, trashing prefernces, trashing SavedData cache, etc.

That totally fixed the shortcut issue!! Fixed in InDesign and Illustrator. Will keep you posted on the computer lagging and freezing issue. Our IT guy thinks it may have something to do the Adobe Updater itself. But we'll see.... thanks so much!

I cannot use keyboard shortcut to quit Safari after Java update

I don't seem to be able to use the quit function (cmd+q). Only if I turn off Java again. I have updated it a few minutes ago, can't see which version it is. 14?
Does anyone else have this problem?

It's in the YOURNAME/Library/Preferences/ folder. Hopefully that fix will stick.
Note: That won't do what you think it does. See http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6521022 for a (long) explanation. Force quitting the Finder after blowing away com.apple.finder.plist will do what you want.

Is there a keyboard shortcut to Insert Link?

So some options like Bold, Underline, Italics have keyboard shortcuts.
Has any one figured out a keyboard shortcut to Insert Link? What about Insert Photo?
What about a keyboard shortcut for pasting the text in the clipboard in as plain text?

Couple of ways to do that.
Great. I'll give it a shot...
1) Use the Quote icon to quote and requote the message being replied to, then delete all the stuff not wanted for each instance. That's too tedious for me.
Agreed.
2) Copy and Paste the selected parts of the message being replied to. Once one part is pasted in, select it again in the compose box and click the Quote icon. Repeat as needed. When you select text in a compose box and click the Quote thingie, instead of quoting the previous message it will set off the selected text in quoted style.
So that's the secret. Thanks!
I use the second method, but with a variant. If I know I'm going to be chopping up the replied to message like that, I just copy/paste the whole thing into the compose box. Then I break it up, adding a response to one section before moving down and adding a response to the next section. The last thing I do before posting is to select each of the pasted parts and click the Quote thingie.
The reason I wait until the end to set them off in quoted style is that although you can undo the quoted format, it's not convenient to do so. I find it easier to get all my tweaking done first.
Makes sense, as long as you don't inadvertently apply the quote thingie to your own response, but I guess that can be fixed.
