The new keyboard shortcuts available in Windows 8.

Hello fans forum!

Previously, I did a post with the new pop-up menu (Windows key + X) in Windows 8 (visible here).  However, Windows 8 offers in terms of many new keyboard shortcuts useful that everyone should take note of.

This Microsoft article covers most of the new keyboard shortcuts.  I suggest you take a look or even print this list because they are particularly useful for users who don't have a touch screen of all users of Windows 8.

Here's the article.

Enjoy using the new shortcuts everyone!

  • Why the standard keyboard shortcuts does not work in the new update?

    Suddenly the standard keyboard shortcuts for example, Zoom (Select the Zoom tool temporarily) and moving around the document (Select the hand tool temporarily) no answer/works? Others with the same problem?

    No problem here.

    Usually, it is a sign that some third-party utilities entering your keystrokes (Shift key, key Alt/Option, etc.).

    Try restarting. Turn off all your startup apps or hold the SHIFT key as you launch your operating system to turn them off. Then open InDesign and probably all will be well. Therefore you need to understand what it is (e.g., Chrome plug-ins are common problems) that is causing the problem.

  • Cursor not moving/working after the installation of the new keyboard

    I just finished replacing the keyboard on my HP G72 due to spill water on the keyboard a few days ago & some keys no longer work after laptop parched. However, I find that things are not as they should because I can't get the cursor to move. I do not use a mouse & rely on the touchpad. I tried to remove the keyboard & reinstall several times but all about no. avail & wonder if anyone can give me some advice, even if it is the keyboard itself may be defective & I need to buy a new one. I don't want to just assume there is a problem with this new keyboard only to discover that the problem is somewhere else & that there is other things I should be doing or trying.

    I had to install a new keyboard on this computer laptop sometimes last year afer having a similar accident with the flow of the water, but the installation of the new time was pretty much a piece of cake, I followed the guides on the screen, I have been looking & everything was perfect, once I had installed the new keyboard.

    Thank you if you can advise.

    Hello

    If possible, try a USB mouse for awhile. This way if the slider works, you can try reinstalling the drivers for the touchpad that could solve the problem. If the cursor does not work with an external mouse also then the problem could be hardware related.

    Sometimes to repeat the installation process of the keyboard all over again also helps.

  • found the new keyboard controller pci hardware

    I had a massage n my office says "found new hardware n asked for a disk to install a driver but do not have." Anyone know what her soul?

    found the new keyboard controller pci hardware

    Simply cancel in the message and we will fix the problem manually.  You say that it is a PC keyboard controller.  Did you just install oee or install a new keyboard or hardware or driver changes at all on your system?

    You can get in trouble with your device (specifidallly the keyboard or keyboard controller) drivers.  Go to the Device Manager by going to start / find and type Device Manager and enter and then double-click on the program icon that appears.  Check each device to a red x, yellow! or white?  Look especially devices associated with the keyboard.  These identify devices with problems probably (drivers, but also of conflict or something else).  Click on each for more details and troubleshooting tips.  If you need to get drivers (and you should for the keyboard and the keyboard/controller and like many others that you have time to do - they are making contributions beyond simply solve this problem), let the computer dealer or the manufacturer of the device (NOT of Microsoft Updates).  In fact, you must disable automatic updates in Windows Update driver as follows: http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/how-to-disable-automatic-driver-installation-in-windows-vista/. Follow these steps to get the drivers: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/ht/driverdlmfgr.htm.  Once you have the drivers, you can install them via the Manager device as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-device-manager-install-driver.html.

    This should solve the problem.  If it is not or you do not find drivers for the position of keyboard controller to return with more information about the keyboard controller that you can find.  The keyboard works fine without this "new material"?  Tell me what you see in Device Manager on the keyboards or keyboards/controllers. Go to the Actions and click Scan for New Hardware and tell me EVERYTHING he says he says he detected new hardware.  Keep clicking and copy everything it says until you get to the point where he asks a disc install a driver (before you get to that point it will ask probably if you want to search for a driver - Windows answer Yes and see if it works (it probably won't, but it's worth a shot).)  Either you added something, or something that was already there became active or something that was already installed got corrupted and lost its driver and therefore act as if it was a new piece of hardware.  In all cases we need to IDENTIFY this material so that we can drivers for it (or you will continue to see this message every time you start).

    If you are unsure that you have installed anything new, then I suggest that you only contact technique the customer computer manufactuerer by phone or chat online help to identify the material and the location of device drivers to it.

    I hope this helps.

    Good Lluck!

    Hello, please help me. I use a power keyboard for my laptop. I see in the new keyboard is equipped with a num lock key is turned on. I can't use on it please help me disable it. I do not use a NumLock on. Thank you

    You say that when you press the NUM LOCK key, the Numlock State does not change (if enabled to disabled and vice versa)?  Have you tried to unplug the keyboard and by ensuring that the keyboard of the laptop does not have enabled Numlock?  If so, turn it off on the laptop keyboard and reinsert the another keyboard and see if the problem is resolved.

    If you do not need the Numlock key, it can be disabled at startup with the following procedure:http://www.technipages.com/enabledisable-numlock-at-login-or-startup.html. Once this is done, I don't think he's going to turn on or off and that they the keyboard will start in the off position.  You will not be able to use the key yourself or another, but maybe the problem she is on (which is worse than it to be impossible to be turned on) will be resolved and I hope it will be enough for you.

    If the key does not work and you want to be able to use it, the keyboard may be defective.  Try the keyboard on another computer and see if you have the same problem.  If so, the keyboard is defective and must be replaced.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • change the wee keyboard shortcut

    Hello
    I use Indesign CS4 on mac.


    I want to apply some wee (no kerning or tracking, just spacing between words) to a few paragraphs.
    My book of Real World Indesign CS4 tells me that these shortcuts should work:
    1. to increase the spacing of the word without affecting the pitch press on - Option Comand / or Ctrl-Alt-/ which will add the basis of kerning increment (as defined by the value in the kerning in dialog units and increments of preferences) after each character space in the text range.
    2. hold down aswell shift key to increase above 5 times.

    3. to decrease the spacing of the word without affecting spacing on Comand + Option + DELETE or Ctrl-Alt-Backspace that will deduct the basic kerning increment (as defined by the value in the kerning in dialog units and increments of preferences) after each character space in the text range.

    4 2. Hold the aswell shift key to decrease the above 5 times.

    I have a Swedish keyboard shortcut, works of command-Option-Backspace to reduce floor space, but the increase keyboard shortcuts do not work for me.

    I tried to use the keyboard shortcuts to change the dialog box, but very few type commands are so I can't change the shortcut, even though I know that the keyboard shortcut to reduce no infact exist and work (but not listed).
    I looked under the default and the Swedish shortcut sets but these shortcuts are not listed.

    Can someone please help

    Thank you
    John

    * All * existing shortcuts are listed in the keyboard shortcuts editor - but they are divided into separate categories, which may explain why you don't see one that you're Lookin '.

    Click on the button 'Show Set', and you will get a complete list of all menu "short-cut-able" possible options in your favorite text editor. Use the search feature to locate "Decrease word Space" (which is how it is called in my English version); Then you can see the product area in which it is defined in the dialog KBSE.

  • Log on to the virtual machine as the English Keyboard Layout available?

    VMware Workstation 7.0:

    Install Windows 7 in a VM. When I want to connect I have to enter my password with an English keyboard. After logging in, my keyboard settings are changed to Swiss German (which I chose in the settings of the keyboard in Windows 7).

    No idea how to fix? I could connect (enter password) with a German or Swiss German keyboard?

    Windows Help:

    Change your keyboard type

    You can customize your keyboard for a specific language or format by changing the keyboard layout. The layout controls which characters appear on

    the screen when you press the keys on your keyboard. Some input languages have several keyboard layouts; others have only one. For example,.

    You can change your keyboard type to the English QWERTY format to the English Dvorak format. After you change the layout, the characters on your screen may not match the characters on your keyboard.

    Before you can change the keyboard layout, you must add the input language and keyboard layout you want for Windows.

    To change the layout of the keyboard on the Welcome screen, click the button keyboard, thenSelect one layout keyboard layout.

    Note: If you don't see the keyboard layout button, you won't have more than one input language or your regional and language settings not could be applied to reserved accounts.

    Apply regional and language settings to reserved accounts

    Apply regional and language settings to reserved accounts

    When you choose regional and language settings for your computer, such as keyboard or language available by default, you can apply those settings to special accounts in Windows called reserved accounts. Reserved accounts include the default user account and accounting system. These accounts are described below.

    Open region and language

    Click administration, and then parameters of clickCopy.  If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    Do one of the following:

    To copy the current settings to the default user account, select the new user accounts checkbox. The default account is used as a model for the creation of new user accounts. This setting allows administrators to set the default format, keyboard layout and display language for new users. Any user account created on the computer after the settings have been copied to the default user account will have these settings applied.  Existing user accounts are not affected.

    To copy the current settings to the screen of welcome and other accounts system (local system, local service, and network service), select the screen and system accounts check box Welcome. The system of accounts is special accounts used by Windows.  This setting allows administrators to specify a display language and keyboard layout for the Welcome screen. It also sets the display language for users who have not specified a display language.

  • Keyboard shortcut for fill window?

    A few years ago I was regularly using a certain combination of keys that would instantly increase the pages of a PDF to fill the window (rather than having to click on the button in the GUI).  But I forgot how do.  I tried the 'keyboard shortcuts' list - using Adobe Reader - but no sign of such a shortcut.  I am currently using Adobe Reader 9.4.7.

    Anyone know?  Thank you.

    -Bob K.

    Yes, it's a good thing to maximize the window to the entire application.  It is, he is not also stretch the document you are viewing - it leaves intact document zoom level (unless you used first of all of your mouse to click on the 'fill window' button next to the field of zoom percentage, which is what I'm trying to avoid having to do whenever I have call a PDF file).  I remember was a keyboard shortcut to make just the document fill the app window - without also maximize the app in fullscreen window.

    The good news is, I just stumbled upon the answer in a few minutes there are myself, trying different combinations of keys.  It turns out, it's Ctrl-3.  If a PDF document zoom level is currently set to, say, 50%, you can press Ctrl-3 and the document will extend to any zoom percentage will fill the current size of the application window.  If your player window is maximized and you press Ctrl-3, your current document to 50% could spend about 142%, whereas if the window is maximized no, say, about half the size of your full screen, the doc may only need to jump to 70.4% to fill this small window.

    Well well.  Happy joy!

    Thanks for the reply.

  • Y at - it a keyboard shortcut for switching windows?

    I see that there is a keyboard shortcut for switching tabs in a window of Firefox, but I would also like one to switch between the windows of the browser. I guess it's easier on Windows, where each browser window kind of behaves as an application separate, but on the Mac OS, an application can have multiple windows. Thus, the operating system does not provide supported to switch between browser windows via a keyboard shortcut; It allows to switch between applications, which brings all of the windows in the application target forward.

    To switch between using Firefox windows: Cmd (Shift) + ~ (Tilde)
