OS X V10.7 Lion :: Why Can't Create A Keyboard Shortcut

Feb 2, 2012

I created an Automator Service to restart my computer in Bootcamp (since I was getting very tired of having to navigate to the Startup Disk Prefence pane every time).  What I would like to do, is make this service have a global keyboard shortcut.  However, when I try to set one in the Keyboard Shorcuts preferences (i.e. double-clicking and holding down the desired keys), my computer just beeps at me. 

I thought maybe it was not allowing the specific shortcut I was trying - thinking maybe it was already in use.  So I tried many other key combinations - enough to come to the conclusion that this was not the issue. 

Info:
MacBook, Mac OS X (10.7.2), 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

MacBook Pro :: Create A Virtual Keyboard Shortcut In Dock?

Feb 25, 2012

So I started using my MacBook Pro as a device I connect to my TV. I have an HDMI adapter, and, after setting up the display and sound, it is awesome! I even purchased a Trackpad so I can sit on my couch and navigate. The cost of the adapter and Trackpad are more than paid for with my canceling of cable. 

Anyway, my question is about the virtual keyboard in OS X. It doesn't happen often, but I sometimes have to type in a user name or password for sites. I know how to go through "System Preferences", "Universal Access", and then "Keyboard Preferences" to turn it on, but is there a faster way? 

What I really want to know is if I can create a shortcut in my dock for the virtual keyboard? 

If not, does anyone know of any third party, virtual keyboard applications that would work this way? 

Info:
MacBook Pro (13-inch Early 2011), Mac OS X (10.7.3)

OS X :: Moving Application In Spaces Using Keyboard Shortcut

Oct 29, 2007

Is there a way to move an application to another space in Spaces using a keyboard shortcut? For example if anyone is familiar with Compiz or Beryl you can use control+alt+shift+directional key to move an application to a new space without using the mouse or the mode where you can see all the spaces at ounce.

Software :: Using Keyboard Shortcut To Launch Application?

Feb 20, 2006

I'm OS X 10.4.4. G4 15". I wanna launch applications just by pressing a function key. Used to do this with system 9. Mac help seems to imply I can't. Note: You can create keyboard shortcuts only for existing menu commands. You cannot define keyboard shortcuts for general purpose tasks such as opening an application or switching between applications. Am I slow, or is this saying I can't "quick launch" an app with a press of one button? Is this really true? Is there no "one touch" way to launch stuff? (And not on startup - I've got that figured out.)

MacBook Pro :: Create A Shortcut For Notes In Dock?

Mar 8, 2012

I love the Apple Notes App on my iPhone because it has the ability to sync seamlessly with my MacBook Pro. 

I prefer to use the Apple Notes App cause they sync seamlessly for me between devices (I don't want to use another program like Sticky Notes or such.) 

I was wondering if it is possible to create a shortcut on my Dock (or desktop or keyboard shortcut to launch?) to these notes directly so I don't have to keep opening up the Apple Mail Client (Which I do not use)? 

Info:
Notes, Mac OS X (10.7.3)

Jul 27, 2009

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.

OS X :: Keyboard Shortcut Not Resetting

Oct 10, 2010

I set my fn key to display all windows (same as F3 default). I would like to remove this, but it doesn't show up on the system preferences shortcut list. Pressing "Restore Defaults" does nothing to alleviate the problem. Is there a way that I could reset all of my default shortcuts through terminal or something more powerful than system preferences?

OS X :: Add Keyboard Shortcut For Menu Bar App?

Jan 1, 2009

I use Macbiff to check my email. I guess you'd say it's a background app; it has no dock icon or cmd-tab icon; it resides solely in the menu bar. To check email, I have to click its menu bar icon and select Check Now from the drop down menu. I have created a keyboard shortcut for "Check Now", but I can't figure out a way to give the app focus in order to use the shorcut, aside from clicking the icon, which obviously defeats the purpose. FN-ctrl-F8 gets me to the menu bar, but not to Macbiff...this only works for OS based menu bar items, not 3rd party apps. Aside from a 3rd party keyboard app, is there a way to do what I'm trying to do? 3rd party apps don't see Macbiff as a running application anyhow.

OS X :: Keyboard Shortcut To Hit OK Button

Jan 8, 2009

You know how in Windows you can use the tab key to tab through fields in a dialogue box until the OK or Cancel button is selected, then use the enter key to execute one's choice? Well how does one do that in Leopard? For example, I am entering a lot of transactions into my accounting software (MYOB) and each entry has to be recorded by hitting the OK button. It's highlighted in blue but hitting the enter key doesn't do it and I cannot tab to it. It would speed things up greatly if I didn't have to keep mousing to the button.

OS X :: How Can I Set Up Keyboard Shortcut For Spaces

Aug 16, 2009

It wasn't until I got my new MPB that I realized how much I use Spaces on a daily basis, when I had my whitebook.

I've set up Spaces on my new uMBP but can't find a way to "view all my spaces." You know, the overview look of spaces, when you can see all your spaces at a glance and click to switch on whichever space you wanna enter.

Well, I can't for the life of my figure out how to set up a keyboard shortcut for this. Back on my whitebook it was always set to F10, but looking at the new layout of buttons on the top row of the keyboard, there are some buttons I'd like to leaver untouched.

F1+F2: Screen brightness controls I'd like to leave untouch since they're obviously useful.

F3: This is Expose right? Giving me a view of all open windows. Well, can't I just do this already by moving 4 fingers downward on the trackpad? If that's the case, which I think it is I wouldn't mind assigning F3 a different shortcut, like Spaces. But how?

F4: Dashboard. On the whitebook it was always F12, guess it'll just take some getting used to.

F5+F6: Backlit keyboard dimmers, i'm fine leaving thouse as is.

F7-F12: Controls media with the back, play/pause, next button which I love & the sound controls which I don't mind.

In System Prefs. in Spaces I'll set "Activate Spaces" to F3 but still F3 will do Expose. I'm not sure how to change this.

& I have no idea what secondary mouse click or middle mouse button is...i'm guessing this has to do with mighty mouse? Me no have one, just using the trackpad..

Does anyone know of a keyboard shortcut to go to the Login Window (fast user switching) like the Win+L combination for Windows XP?

Or perhaps a keyboard shortcut to lock the machine, like CTRL+ALT+DEL for Windows 2000/XP?

I've been searching for what seems like hours, and I can't find anything.
