Why won't the keyboard shortcuts in Illustrator CC 2014 work in Mac OS 10.9.4?

I have a Mac Pro (Late 2013) with these specs:
Processor  3 GHz 8-Core Intel Xeon E5
Memory  64 GB 1867 MHz DDR3 ECC
Graphics  AMD FirePro D700 6144
Software  OS X 10.9.4 (13E28)
I downloaded the latest Adobe software today so not sure what the issue is.

I have checked the system prefs and there don't seem to be any corresponding keyboard shortcuts to interfere with them. When I choose the "Use all F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys" on the keyboard prefs pane (see below), then the Illustrator shortcuts work, but it disables the basic functions in the Finder and other programs. There is some conflict but I can't figure out the right settings for both Illustrator and the Mac OS to work properly.

  • I have a second generation ipod touch, why won't the ios 5 and ios 4.3 work on ipod touch 2g?

    I have a second generation ipod touch, why won't the ios 5 and ios 4.3 work on ipod touch 2g?

    Wel your "answer" provides not only a bad comparison, but is disingenuous at its heart!
    Apple sold a product (8GB iPod Touch) that one could have assumed to be 3rd generation at the time of purchase (because that was what all the other models of iPod Touch were at the time). Then when ios 4.3 came out, we who purchased one of these units found out that the 8GB Touch was really a 2nd generation model, and it would not ever be updated beyond ios 4.2.1 (8C148). Since the version (4.2.1) is BUGGY, it would be in the best interest of Apple to at least provide a bug-fix update release for these units. It is not like we are asking for all the new features of ios 4.3, just fix the BUGS, please, Apple!

  • What's the keyboard shortcut for "Extrusion from Text Layer"? (Mac CS6)

    I keep triggering this by accident and can't figure out what combo I'm hitting, or how to disable it. I've looked in the Keyboard Shortcuts but can't find it.
    I'm on a laptop keyboard, so I use the fn key a lot to access enter when I'm finished editing text. Every once in a while (but often enough to be annoying), I attempt to enter out of text editing and suddenly everything stops, the gray rotating "processing" cursor appears, and for a few seconds I'm in a mild panic about how long it's been since I saved. Then a dialog box comes up asking if I want to switch to the 3D workspace or something. Clicking "no" doesn't stop the unwanted 3D thing from happening, and the last History item then says "Extrusion from Text Layer." I then Undo and go on with what I was doing.
    I've always got my left hand positioned over the lower left corner of the keyboard, and move quickly when using shortcuts and switching tools. I have no idea what combination I keep hitting by accident - something with fn, ctrl, opt, cmd, shift, I don't know, plus possibly return or enter. What is it, and how do I disable it?

    Trial-and-error prevails: It's fn + shift + return. (Or shift + enter on a full keyboard, I suppose? Unless that still does a soft line break like shift + return.)
    But only when I'm actively editing the text layer - not with the text layer selected and Move tool active, or even with the text layer selected and Type tool active, but only when in the process of using the Type tool to edit the text layer. I still have no idea to disable it, though.

    Once you download the trial version of Acrobat, Adobe Download Assistant automatically starts the product installation on your machine.

  • Why won't the Adobe Acrobat free trial download button work - nothing happens when I click it?

    I've tried any number of ways to enter the site and download the free Adobe Acrobat version and nothing happens.   I don't get any response to my clicks.

    Have you tried using a different browser?  Some browsers do not fair well with download links in the Adobe site.

  • Why does the keyboard shortcut on the bookmarks ctrl end and ctrl home to go up and down the bookmarks only work "sometimes"

    Why does the keyboard shortcut on the bookmarks ctrl end and ctrl home to go up and down the bookmarks only work "sometimes"

    Is the problem on the Bookmarks menu, on the Bookmarks drop-down list (from one of your toolbars), in the Bookmarks sidebar, or in the Library dialog used to organize bookmarks?
    Do Home and End (without the Ctrl key) work any better/differently?

    Why can´t I take a step back with the keyboard shortcut, cmd + ö, it was possible before, now you have to go to the bar at the top and "go back one step." I have Mac-systems, I also have mouse elbow, and do not want to use the mouse too often.

    This article lists some other options for "Back" navigation. Do any of them work for you?

  • Why is the keyboard shortcut for 'Select next input source' disabled when using Safari?

    I'm using Safari 6.0.5 and am running 10.8.4 on a MacBook Pro 13" from last year.
    I've been using Chrome and Firefox heavily recently, but switched to Safari to give it a chance. It's really nice and lightweight, which suits me.
    However, for some reason unbeknownst to me, the keyboard shortcut 'Select next input source' is disabled in Safari, in all windows/input methods.
    Since I constantly switch input methods, this is incredibly frustrating.
    It persists after quit + restart.
    Any ideas?

    Yes, just Safari. In Chrome, Firefox and all other applications it works as expected.

  • Why is up next adding songs twice when I use the keyboard shortcut? (windows)

    I only encounter this using the mini-player
    as far as I know, at least; because the keyboard shortcut doesn't even work on the full sized player.
    augh.

    You should post that on the Boot Camp  forum, that is where all the Boot Camp and Windows guys hang out.
    Good luck.

  • The keyboard shortcut that turns an exclamation mark into an apostrophe no longer works in iOS 6. How can I restore that shortcut?

    the keyboard shortcut that turns an exclamation mark into an apostrophe no longer works in iOS 6. How can I restore that shortcut?

    Well, I for one really hate when they change this stuff.  They get us used to doing it one way for years and then they change it.  Why?  Really, seriously, truly......WHY?
    In fact, I originally noticed it had changed and then when I'd hit it, I thought it required me to touch both so I ended up with an apostrophe but then also a letter "l".  I just left commas everywhere I went for a while cuz it ticked me off so bad I just rebelled.
    In ios5 it was actually faster because it's the same move and time involved, but without the extra "slide".  So, in essence, Apple went backwards.
    Nice, eh?

  • Mac mini won't boot - keyboard shortcuts don't work

    Older Intel Mac Mini that I use as an entertainment / movie center. Leopard.
    I did a software update recently, but somehow botched it and interrupted the process.
    Ever since then, it won't start up correctly. It chimes, disk powers up, but then it gets stuck on the screen with the apple and rotating propeller. Can go on for hours if you let it.
    Took it to a dealer, who said it started up fine from another system an I should try starting it in target disk mode an reinstall the OS.
    Bought a USB keyboard specifically so I could press the T and tried it.
    It seems that none of the keyboard shortcuts work. I tried target disk mode (T), starting from a system disk (C), tried having it give me a choice of bootable volumes (Option) - nothing. It would appear the Mini doesn't recognize my brand new Apple USB keyboard.
    Tried the keyboard with my MacBook and there it works fine.
    Any ideas?

    OK, just found the answer while browsing the "more like this" answers that appeared after I posted my question.
    I wasn't aware that the new Apple Aluminium Keyboard doesn't play nice with the Mini and that the Mini doesn't recognize this particular keyboard in time for the boot sequence.

    Using the remote (press the menu key during boot-up) worked fine and I could choose to boot from a system disk.
    Spending $60 for a new keyboard that won't do what I bought it for is, however, another story. Grr.

  • I can no longer use the keyboard shortcuts, 'command  C' and 'command   V'.  Did I inadvertently do something to my keyboard or computer that caused this?  Is there a way to fix it?

    I can no longer use the keyboard shortcuts, 'command  C' and 'command   V'.  Did I inadvertently do something to my keyboard or computer that caused this?  Is there a way to fix it?

    You can also check in System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts, make sure that custom shortcuts were not created using those same commands. If ones were, they could be creating a conflict. Step throuogh each of the items in the left list, checking the array presented in the right pane for each.

  • My iPhone 4S is no longer using the keyboard shortcuts

    my iPhone is no longer working with the keyboard shortcuts I have set up.. Anyone else having these problems?

    What happens when you try to sync? Do you see any error messages? Which software on the computer are you referring to, iTunes? The latest iTunes is 11.1.3. If you cannot update the phone due to lack of storage, you will need to delete some content from the phone.
