OS X Mavericks :: Toggle Windows Shortcut Command For Safari In Not Working
Jun 21, 2014
I have checked multiple support sites, and all indicate the same shortcut. I even tried "adding" the shortcut in the "Application Shortcuts" screen in Preferences.
How can I disable the (Command + "Left or Right Arrow") Keystroke in Safari that navigates Back and Forward. If I could also disable the (delete) key from navigating back, I would be happy.
I edit text with these keystrokes all the time and now that I've upgraded to Lion and Safari 5.1.5 I run into problems with my workflow.
I just want (delete) to delete text and (Command + Arrow Key) to select a whole line of text.
I have been googling around but I can't find anything sufficient. I would like a simple way to enable a keyboard shortcut to toggle bluetooth on and off; one feature I enjoy having turned on is the option under Universal Access to disable the trackpad if an external mouse is connected. This is great when I'm at my desk, but if I move my MacBook Pro to another room it doesn't necessarily disconnect the bluetooth mouse and thus I have to go back to my desk to shut the mouse off in order to get my trackpad back again.
So a quick simple tool, like maybe fn+B or cmd+B or whatever, would be awesome.
I tried recording an Automator macro but it can't discern whether bluetooth is on already or not, plus there was a huge lag time of five seconds each time I triggered it (on top of it stealing window focus).
I need to be able to toggle my primary display between two monitors connected to my Mac Mini. I know that this is normally done by the following:Display Preference Pane -> Arrangement -> Drag the menu bar to the monitor your want as primary I'm looking for a hotkey or keyboard shortcut to toggle this more quickly. My graphics apps have to bind to the primary, but I also need to send full-screen output to the primary display, thus blocking the menu bar and dock.
Just wondering if there's a quick keyboard shortcut for toggling the "Show Item Info" option. It would be great if I could get a quick look at the sizes of my files within a certain finder window, then quickly turn that view option off.
The shortcut keys work in other applications, including Chrome and Firefox, but they don't work in Safari. The context menu commands do the right thing, but there is no shortcut key combo listed in Safari.
I am a mac newbie, but experienced linux and windows user. I am trying to restore my mac mini (mid 2011) running mavericks. The process should normally be very simple; press command-R keys while booting to start recovery mode and go from there.
Unfortunately my keyboard is a palm-sized keyboard without command or windows keys. So I am stuck. I have 2 windows laptops that I can use to remote login but I cannot do remote login during boot.
I tried mapping the Command key to Ctrl key inside OS X, but it seems like this only works after reboot.
I tried to use recovery disk assistant as it requires "Option" key, but the assistant does not allow me select the HD, as I guess I do not have a recovery system on the HD.
I tried doing network install, but it requires the install CD, which I don't have. I have an ipad and two iphones if it
Is the (command-grave accent) shortcut a useful shortcut for some application? I would like to use it for the Witch application, but it says it's 'taken by another application'. If I won't ever need to use said shortcut, I'll just keep it as it is.
Can I toggle between Air Print and an Epson printer driver? The only way I can print directly on CDs with my Epson XP-810 is to use Epson's driver. Normally, I'd prefer to use Air Print.I'm running OSX 10.9.4.
I finally realized that I never use the four finger swipe to switch apps, thus I changed it to switch between spaces. Now I need short cuts of some sort to easily send windows into another space. I used to use the left bottom corner to open spaces and than move the windows around but that is inconvenient and slow. Is there any short cut that I press that moves any given window to another space. Or how can I create one. I have BetterTouchTool but I didn't find any command to make this happen. I am thinking of something like option+2 to send a window into the second space. In XP I had something similar to spaces and with ctrl+3 I switched to the 3rd space and with alt/opt+3 the active window moved to the 3 space.
I'm using SL and my Spaces shortcut is apple command+0. On my old whitebook I believe I had it to be simply F11, but can't get a one button shortcut for it on my MBP 13inch. I would'nt even mind-in fact I would love a trackpad shortcut... ...Here's hoping someone reads this and provides an interesting shortcut.
Wondering why i cant toggle app windows after i reinstalled osx10.5 with cmd-<? i use this command all the time and know it wont work, any one smart who knows the answer to this issue?
For no apparent reason the command-space keyboard shortcut no longer works for opening Spotlight. I go into the preferences for Spotlight and it shows no keyboard shortcut, I make it command-space again, exit, and it still doesn't work. If I go back into the preferences, it is blank again. What is going on?
So i had not used my laptop in about a week because of an issue with safari..When i get to https sites (totally random) have a box to enter something like a cc number or address as i start to type safari gives me the busy wheel for infinity...let it sit for hours one day, never stopped. had to force quit. relaunched, same thing on the same box. cleared history and cache, rebooted and tried again.happened on multiple websites on random boxes where i needed to enter some info, was always on a https site though.
Second issue, went to use my computer again, launched mail. none of my accounts are syncing. iCloud, exchange, gmail..all show most up to date from the last time i used it over a week ago. let it sit for hours, still no sync. got it to update by taking all accounts offline then back online. went to send a test message. hit the send button and mail locked up completely!!
Info: MacBook Pro (Retina, Mid 2012), OS X Mavericks (10.9.4)
I am too sad because of a problem,I downloaded Safari 4 and installed it on my win 7 and worked fine but when installed safari 5.1.7 after many days,it does not respond,when I click on safari icon it open but does not appear my homepage of google,I think its the problem with the version as Safari 4 works and Safari 5.1.7 does not?
Using Windows 7 Pc I open Safari under my Windows Log In which is Home and now when I try install Extension I get the error cant install, The extension that was their is not their either and it was working last week and it was there. So I clicked repair no luck, I uninstalled it and still nothing, so then I logged into the other user account in my Windows 7 Pc which is Guest or I have another one Called Party, and guess what EXTENSIONS INSTALL!!! And all is perfect. So I am lost as to how the Safari after being installed 2 times now ie re installed etc and restarted machine is not working under Home user in Windows.
Ps WINDOWS 7 I am on I see allot of posts on how to delete lists etc all on Macs so please remember I am on Windows 7
I have a Dell Inspiron 1545, and Safari has been working perfectly up until this last week when I went away. I left my laptop at home with safari running, and I left the laptop on while I was gone. When I got home and clicked on Safari (the laptop had died, which closed all of my programs), the window pops up but then it freeezes and stops responding. When I click on the window, a smaller window pops up asking me if I would like to close the program or wait for it to respond, and when I select close program, another window pops up saying that the WebKit2WebProcess.exe has stopped working. I have tried starting the computer in safe mode and nothing is working. If I reinstall Safari, I run the risk of losing all of my bookmarks. What should I do?!
For a while now the command-tab, dashboard key and spaces key do not work. I press the key and nothing happens. If I restart the OS (OS X 10.5.5) they work but only for a short time and stop working again. Other accounts on the system work fine and do not have this problem.
So you know how when you use a key command, the menu title under which it resides will flash blue momentarily? (i.e. file, edit, or view). No matter what application I am running, if I use Command + G, the edit menu flashes blue and nothing happens.
In Photoshop I need this command to group layers. In Bridge I need it so I can stack groups. In I-movie I need it to view videos as full screen. Of course I could drag my mouse up to the menu bar everytime instead, but I WANT MY KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS BACK :-(
I have tried using disk utility and doing an archive and install, but the problem isn't fixed. the command works fine if I sign in as another user. Ideas?
After hearing the Mac startup tone normally if you hold down C it will boot from the Mac Install/Recovery disc or if you press cmd+option+P+R it will reset the PRAM or cmd+option+V should show the unix style boot up sequence.
None of these shortcuts seem to be working on my Mac and it boots straight into Mac OS 10.5, why there not working and how I can get these startup shortcuts working again?
When I want to open a new tab in Safari, FireFox and Opera I press the keyboard shortcut of command & T but it no longer works. command w closes the window, command r refreshes the page.
