Using cmd-shift-left/right arrows in Terminal

Hi,
Is there a way to revert to Leopard's shortcuts for switching tabs in Terminal?
I'm working on a daily basis with both Leopard and Snow Leopard and the fact that I have to use cmd-shift-left/right in the former (which is coherent with Safari) and cmd-left/right in the latter (which is coherent with I wonder what?) is extremely annoying.
I tried using System Preferences Keyboard pane to assign the shortcut to no avail, but it doesn't seem to work at all.
BTW, I really don't understand why Apple changed this shortcut. As with any application, changing shortcuts is not really considerate for end users ;P
TIA

I don't know why you have command+left or right arrow for tab switching. i have command+shift +left or right arrow. running 10.6.2 here. also, the other shortcuts for this that show up in the window menu are command+} and command+{. those can be also be changed in keyboard system preferences. that should have worked for you. i can do it without problems. but I suggest you reset your terminal preference file. that should restore teh default shortcuts. quit terminal and delete the file ~/library/preferences/com.apple.terminal.plist. start terminal and the shortcuts should be commandshiftarrows.

Command-Left/Right Arrow not working

Very strange behavior I'm seeing today.
My left/right arrow keys work. Even Option-Left/Right works correctly.
But, Command-Left-Right do not work. No movement at all.
Curiously, Shift-Command-Left/Right work fine.
I've not changed any keyboard shortcuts recently. I've checked the keyboard shortcuts that are currently defined. Nothing that would indicate a problem, but clearly there is.

Just found a solution that worked for me here. Basically, it seems to be a bug with the Dock. If you type "killall Dock" (the command is case-sensitive) into the command line in Terminal, it restarts the Dock. After that the arrows seem to work normally again.

Timeline cursor has a Left/Right Arrow with red diagonal line

I am trying to edit a timeline in Premiere, but the cursor changes to a Left/Right arrow with a red line across it. I've never seen this cursor before in CS4 and it is preventing me from moving clips in the timeline.
I tried to take a screen grab to show you all, but the cursor is always hidden in the final grab.
I resorted to drawing the curson in MS Paint.
I feel like such a *******.
I have searched high and low on Google.
Please help

Hi,
I'm using Adobe Premier and trying to find the key command to move the cursor in the timeline from the beginning of one clip to the beginning of the next clip, and back, or as a way of quickly scrolling through clips one at a time.
In FCP I use the arrow commands.
Can you help me?
Thanks!

Working through David's book - trouble with Control-Left/Right Arrow

I have worked my way through David Nahmani's book in the Apple Pro Training series and it is EXCELLENT! It's the best investment I've made in a long time. The investment I made in the new computer and software would be so much less AWESOME had I not found this little gem. I do have a question, though...
When it comes to the command keys, I can't get the Control-Left/Right Arrow commands to work. They are supposed to be zoom keys - but they just wipe my window left and right. I'm probably doing something wrong. Anyone know what it is?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Gina

Gina,
The problem is that Control + Arrow Keys is the default key command to switch between Spaces (window sets) in Leopard. So, here's what you do:
1. Open System Preferences
2. Click on "Exposé & Spaces" (top row, fourth icon from the left)
3. Click on the "Spaces" tab
4. In the bottom portion of the window you'll see a section for "Keyboard and Mouse Shortcuts", in the second pulldown menu change the setting from "^ Arrow Keys" to another of the choices. I personally use the second choice, which is Command + Option + Arrow Keys.
Now, back in Logic your Control + Arrow Keys should be controlling your Arrange window zoom.
Hope this helps!

DateChooser.. how to custom events on left/right arrow that switch the months?

Hi,
In the DateChooser there are left/right arrows to switch the
prev/next months, is there anyway that i can customize the events?
like overriding or something?
any help is really appreciated!!

You can always copy the SDk source to your project, change
the package name, and do whatever you want. I had to do this to
make the background of the date chooser truly transparent.

Why can't I use the left/right arrow keys to go to the next page or back a page?

When reading manga, I used to be able to go to the next page or go back a page using the left and right arrow keys. Doesn't work anymore, how can I fix that?

Such a feature can only be added by an extension.

Left/Right Arrows Stopped Working

Hello,
I just noticed my left and right arrow keys have stopped working. I updated my computer earlier today and when I tried to move the line cursor over, it wouldn't move. The top and bottom arrow keys work fine, but not the left and right keys.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Safari 5.1 hotkeys with left/right arrows are not working!

I had my redefined hotkeys in Safari 5 for Select Next/Previous Tab (they were cmd+right/left arrow)
When I've updated to Safari 5.1 hotkeys stopped working that way, and now they are acting like Back/Forward
But Back/Forward are cmd+[ and cmd +]
Anybody with the same problem?
P.S I've tried to delete com.apple.safari.plist - no result

I ran into the same issue.
Had to go into the Keyboard pref. pane and reassign the tab ones to shift-arrow keys

Macbook keyboard left/right arrow keys don't work

Hello everyone,
First time here and first time to touch a Macbook - I'm in IT but on the other side of the fence.
My partner's laptop is a Core2-Duo @ 2GHz which I've stuck 4GB of RAM and a newer SATA HDD into, I've also updated the firmware just in case it was needed to see the 4GB and also I seem to recall bootcamp wanting it.
A while back I was asked to put Vista-64 on it, I've done that and like most people mucked around with bootcamp drivers and got nearly everything working.
I noticed that some keys and the 'right click' ability wasn't working so I installed the Keyboard Input Remapper - this seems to only be for MacBook Pro however it did get me a right-click button so I didn't argue with that.
I'm not sure if it's because I've upgraded the firmware or not but Windows detects the keyboard as a MacBook Pro - and after I install the keyboard remapper it comes up as a more generic keyboard device "HID Compliant Keyboard" I think it is.
In particular the left and right directional arrow keys simply don't work, I can't even re-map them with a third party utility like Sharpkeys because it can't detect any input from them.
Doesn't seem to matter if I use the "Macbook Pro" keyboard or the "HID Compliant" keyboard with or without the input remapper - no combination I've found can seem to make it work and I can't find a non "Pro" keyboard driver.
I've spent many hours trying to figure this out and reading posts all over the web, the keys work under Mac OS 10.5.4.
Thanks in advance.

DW CS3 site has pages shifting left & right

I've updated part of my website using DW CS3, which I'm new
to. The site works fine other than some of the pages jump a little
to the left and some jump to the right. Pages float in the middle
of the screen and margins and paddings are set to '0' and all pages
are controlled by a stylesheet. To view site, go to
www.wedobrochures.com . I've checked everything I could think of
with no luck. Some of the pages were made from scratch and some
from a template, but that may not be significant.
Any ideas?
David

Add this to your CSS -
html, body { min-height:101%; margin-bottom:1px; }
That will force a scrollbar on all pages.

Entire Page Shift left-right

A page on a website I designed shifts by about ten pixels to the left. I have several master pages with essentially the same background. The elements on the master page are not locked. Should they be? How can I see where the error is if I cannot see the HTML data? Does anyone have any idea what prompts that kind of a shift? Is it a bug? This was not happening before version beta 7.
The url is
http://www.primary-team.com/news.html
I appreciate any suggestions. Thanks,
Rich

REVISED: Since there have been no suggestions I will add this. I tried creating a new test site with the same art for background and it seemed that as long as no new pages are added to the site (menu) once much work has been complete it was stable. After adding more text to the site I'm getting the same problem again. A page shift once you click from page to page using the menu. It seems like a definite bug in Muse.
Any help?

Gmail compose - command left/right still broken (Mac)

This question was [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/767732 asked previously] , and was marked solved, but was never really solved.
In the 'Compose mail' window of GMail the shortcut Command-left arrow or Command-right arrow to jump to respectively beginning or end of a line, is not working. It works fine in Chrome, and Home/End work fine in Windows, but I'd rather stick to Firefox on my Mac.
A solution was proposed on the link above to remap those key combinations to Ctrl-A/Ctrl-E using other software, but these solutions are overkill, and still do not let you highlight to the beginning or end of the line using Cmd-Shift-Left/right.
Can someone at Mozilla or Google please comment?

This problem has been marked "solved" but isn't solved at all. This problem still exists, and is infuriating to any Mac/Firefox/Gmail users who like to stick to the keyboard. I've also noticed this happens in other google apps (blogger, docs, etc).

Command Option Left/Right Key Doesn't Work

10.6.8 Snow Leopard,
Command+Option+Left/Right Key stop working.
I couldn't move tab, or play previous movie file nor next one.
http://codereview.chromium.org/273032
I've tested the other keys work, but just CMD+OPT+Left/Right Arrow hadn't.
Is there any quick repair or solution?

10.6.8 Snow Leopard,
Command+Option+Left/Right Key stop working.
If this is not in the standard apple keyboard shortcuts and not something you added to the Keyboard Shortcuts preferencs then it's an app specific extension and not Snow Leopard's (i.e., Apple's) problem.

My mac stops working after Screen capture (Cmd+Shift+4)

Hi all,
this is really a serious issue!
After upgrading to 10.6.6, I have found a bug with the Screen capture feature.
After several screen shots (CmdShift4) OSX is hanging. You can move the mouse, but everything else is frozen.
I've tested it prior to the upgrade with 10.6.5 -> no problem
I've tested it with 10.6.6 on 2 different Macbook Pros (different models) and both have the same issue with 10.6.6
Please apple, fix this bug!!
thnx
viTus

I don't think there is a bug for Apple to fix, as far as I can tell. I've taken plenty of screenshots using cmd-shift-4 since the update (I actually did a number just a few days ago), and my system is working just fine, as always. I also haven't heard any other reports of this kind of problem. So, the question is, what's going wrong with your systems?
Since it's happening on two different machines, my inclination would be to blame third-party software you've got installed. Try [starting up in Safe Mode|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455]... does the problem still happen then? Safe mode disables third-party software that may be loading at startup/login, so if the problem goes away in safe mode, then it's just a matter of figuring out what software is causing the problem.
Also, are you using any other third-party hardware, especially input devices, with both MacBooks when you're taking the screen shots? If so, try disconnecting all of it and use just the built-in keyboard and trackpad. If the problem goes away then, it's probably a hardware incompatibility.
