Nowadays in my classroom I show video tutorials that I made for my students related to CG-apps, Excel, etc. using a utility that shows keyboard and mouse combinations named Moukey. for some cases like on a projector in the classroom it doesn't detect my Windows 10 and I don't want to call the technician. Also, I mostly like using OSX (of my dual boot MAC), sometimes and I'm looking for an OSX El Capitan version of this Key and Mouse Stroke Displayer. In conclusion, I'm looking for an OSX Version...

Many of you might know that it is possible to add a spacer to the Mac OS dock icons with: $ defaults write com.apple.dock persistent-apps -array-add '{"tile-type"="spacer-tile";}' $ killall Dock but the problem is, I find them a bit wide. I'm wondering if anyone knows a way to adjust the space of those spacers An image of the spacers I'm talking about can be found here Let's block ads! بخوانید...

In OneNote 2013, let's say you're currently editing some text in a regular text box/field: Now I want to exit this text box and move the cursor somewhere else on the page. Pressing Escape doesn't work, neither do the usual suspects (Ctrl+Enter, Alt+Enter, etc.). Can I exit the box with a keyboard shortcut of some kind? I have looked at the official page for OneNote 2013 keyboard shortcuts to no avail. Let's block ads! بخوانید...

I have a pair of earbuds with a microphone that I would like to record with instead of the terrible inbuilt one. Unfortunately, when I plug it in it still uses the inbuilt one. The icon next to the jack indicates that it is speaker and microphone, and the end of my audio jack does have four rings. The microphone works fine on my Android phone, so I know it isn't the earbuds' fault. I remember when I first plugged them, there was a dialogue menu that asked what I wanted to connect it as, and I se...

Info: I'm using acer aspire 5733 (windows 8). I recently bought a new battery online that has a capacity of 112 Wh (which is double the original 48 Wh AS10D31 battery that the laptop came with). It came with the same voltage as the original one which is 10.8 V. Charger supplies 19 V 3.42 A 65W. Problem: I cannot charge the new battery past 43% even after two days of charging. I tried to calibrate the battery by draining it all the way and uninstalling Microsoft ACPI compliant control but all att...

So as the title says, I bricked my laptop. I'm not that good at explaining but let me try. I reformatted my laptop and installed the drivers given by the acer support, driver and manual site. and noticed my speakers aren't working. I opened my laptop to check if the speakers are still okay or the pins might have been disconnected. So it was still okay, after a couple of minutes searching, I found out I needed to update my BIOS. and so I did (yes I checked the version first). everything was doing...

I have a Dell Inspiron 15 3000 series laptop, and, at first, the letter g stopped working... Taking it off and cleaning it didn't work... No big deal, I just ordered a new keyboard. Then the g key started sticking sometimes, typing gggggggg anywhere there was a cursor, and trying to select icons starting with g. After a bit longer, it was sticking all the time. It got to where I couldn't even sign in. I can't type my password. It just starts typing endless g's without stopping. (This all happene...

I know that's being asked but I can't find a solution for my problem. I have old Asus EeePc notebook with windows XP Home SP3 x86 From time to time (few seconds up to few minutes) it acts like the right arrow key is being held down, and stops that behavior when left or up arrows or backspace is pressed, but sometimes starts again when down or right arrow is pressed, while right arrow is not functioning at all most of the time. Also no '#' sign, though other like '$' '%' e.g. work perfectly fine....

I am trying to dual boot windows and linux by putting my second ssd in this optical drive caddy. However, the caddy is not recognized by the BIOS. As far as I can tell from this site, I am running the latest version for my model (v1.21). When I tu on the computer, the blue light on the caddy lights up so I am assuming there is at least getting stata power if not data. Did I get a bricked caddy? Unfortunately I do not have another laptop to test it in. The ssd works perfectly if I put it directly...

I'll be typing away and the Microsoft Keyboard and Mouse application will suddenly start and interrupt whatever I was doing. I cannot seem to replicate the issue, it just happens randomly when I'm typing quickly. How do I determine which keyboard shortcut is starting this application, so that I can disable it?

Is there a keyboard / mouse shortcut to quickly change from one tab to the next in Google Chrome? For example, if I had two tabs open in a single window, and I wanted to easily go from the first tab to the second tab. ...

I'm trying to setup a few keyboard shortcuts that will let me ALT+TAB in to specific applications. I know I can use the command wmctrl -a "- Google Chrome" to do the actual switching, but I'm having trouble wiring it up to a keyboard shortcut. The obvious option would be the "Command" section of the CompizConfig Settings ... only that doesn't work. No matter what keyboard shortcut I set, when I press it nothing happens (it doesn't invoke the specified command). So, I'm either looking for: A) an ...

Without touching mouse, in quick edit mode, how not to lose the typing of a command not yet entered? So history is no help.

last month I dropped some coffe over my laptop's keyboard and it stopped working so I bought a new one (not the exact keyboard but one very similar with the same connector). But I have a problem, i connected the new laptop keyboard and the computer recognices the keys, but they are not mapped properly, when i press 'A' by example a "/" is written so I was wondering if there is any fix to this problem (downloading other drivers, remapping the keyboard etc...)

Running into a really weird issue with a dualboot windows 10/windows 7 machine, with win10 installed as main OS and win7 on a secondary drive, with windows 10's fastboot disabled. Win10 is set as default boot option, and the boot menu is set to a 15 second timeout. If I boot the machine and let it time out or pick win10 explicitly, everything is fine. However, if I boot the machine (or restart from win10) and then pick windows 7, my keyboard lights tu off the moment windows 7 starts up, and neit...
