    To capture the entire screen to an image, use the key combination ⌘ shift 3.
    To capture a selection rectangle, ⌘ shift 4.
    To capture the frontmost window, ⌘ shift 4 and then press the space bar.
    The screen grab will appear on your Desktop. Open it in Preview or your favourite image editing software, and print in the usual manner.

    What is the default key command for THE COMMAND (apple) key? I seem to have changed it somehow along the way and now when I push the command key (only) it hides all open windows and shows the desk top and when I push it again it shows all windows again...I need to return to default A.S.A.P. just this one key...Any ideas? Thanks in advance...

    Go to
     > System Preferences > Keyboard
    Click on the 'Keyboard' tab and hit the 'modifier keys...' button. You can see and change the defaults there.
    As I'm not sure if all the labels are the same in Lion, he's a screenshot from Snow Leopard. It should be similar enough:

  • How to find out what is the lock key for the computer

    How to find out what is the lock key for the computer?

    You don't.
    If you forgot or lost the password, all you can practically do is reset it.
    The manner in which you do so depends on what version of OS X you are running. The older versions utilize the reset password utility on your recovery/re-installation disk/drive.
    On Lion, you use the following technique to reset the Administrators password:
    Boot to your Lion Recovery Partition, by holding down the Option key while starting, and then selecting the Recovery HD as the boot choice.
    Once booted, at the top of the screen is a menu ..., select Utilities / Terminal from the menu bar.
    In the Terminal window, type “resetpassword” (without the quotes) and press return. A “Reset Password” window will open. Select your boot volume (your SSD drive) if it is not already selected. Select your administrators username from the menu labeled “Select the user account” if it is not already selected. Follow the prompts to reset the password. Restart the computer from the apple menu.

  • HT4848 What is the "option key" reffered to in these instructions, I don't have a key marked options?

    What is the "option key" referred to in the instructions for using a recovery disc?

    The Option Key (along with Control and Command) will be on keyboards made by Apple and some 3rd party keyboards made specifically for Macs. Other USB keyboards will work but may have Windows-specific markings.
    The key layouts from left to right on Mac keyboards are (bottom row):
    Control - Option - Command - Space Bar - Command - Option - Control
    If you are using a Windows keyboard, the layout is the same but they keys could be marked differently. In other words, the leftmost key will be the Control key when booted into MacOS regardless of what is marked on it for when you are booted into Windows OS.
    Some compact keyboards might eliminate the left or right keys, but there will always be at least one set. For example it could be:
    Control - Option - Command - Space Bar -
    There are also symbols used to describe these keys in support documents.
    ^ is Control
    A stairstep looking symbol is Option
    A cloverleaf looking symbol is Command
    Some people will refer you to the "Apple Key". There is no such thing but it is common for the Command key to be referred to this way as on many Apple keyboards the Apple Character is on that key. It is usually not on 3rd party keyboards, which is why you should always refer to it as the Command key, since referring to it as the Apple key will confuse many users. Apple never refers to this as the "Apple Key".
    Alternative name for Option key is Alt, but again Apple never refers to it as Alt; it is there for Windows/UNIX compatibility.

  • What is the f5 key on the macbookair?

    What is the f5 key on the macbook air?

    Your question really does not have anything to do with Apple networking.
    However, the F5 key is used to lower the background lighting of the MacBook Air's keyboard. F6, on the other hand, raises the lighting level.

    how can i change shortcut key?

    I don't believe there is a keyboard shortcut available for that feature. But I believe if you click-select the topmost chapter, and Shift-click the bottommost chapter, it should select them all.
    Other shortcuts for books can be set up in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts in the Panel Menus product area. There are no default shortcuts in that area.

  • What is the input "key" in the IMAQ Write Custom Data palette?

    Hello!
    I am not able to use correctly the IMAQ Write Custom Data palette because I do not know what is the input "key".
    Does anyone know its meaning?

    Thank you for replying Ninad Regundwar!
    I agree with this. I have already read this information in the LabView Help.
    However, I would like to know what is the "key" specifically. I know that it is a string.
    I have written a code to add some acquisition features in a PNG Image File. For this, I have used the following palettes: IMAQ Write File 2 - PNG with Vision Info and IMAQ Write Custom Data.
    Afterwards, I have written another code to read the acquisition features from this PNG Image File. For this one, I have used the following palettes: IMAQ Read Image and Vision Information and IMAQ Read Custom Data.
    But, when I am reading the acquisition features, an error message appears: "ERROR -1074395723 occurred at IMAQ Read Custom Data - IMAQ Vision: The key you specified cannot be found in the image"
    I do not know what I have to put in the input "key". So, I have been trying different values for it: "data", "hello", "13", "56", etc. But, none of these has worked and the same message has appeared.
    Does someone know what I have to put in the input "key"? Does someone have an example that shows how to use the palettes: "IMAQ Write Custom Data" and "IMAQ Read Custom Data" correctly?
