Elrithral Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 All of a sudden Alt+F9 has stopped working for me. Anyone any ideas? Can I change the shortcut? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmufcwafc Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 You could use print screen, then paste it onto a blank page with paint. I there's a shortcut editing menu somewhere as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elrithral Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 That's what i've een doing, but it's a right royal pain in the bum. I'll try reassigning the shortcut, but I suppose I better check what the other shortcuts are first. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahmufcwafc Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Are you running any other programs at the same time that could use keyboard shortcuts as well? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elrithral Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 I don't think so. Usually just Firefox, and I would have been using that when the shortcut worked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruskij Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 maybe you pressed shift lock? That would be an explanation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elrithral Posted May 18, 2009 Author Share Posted May 18, 2009 Excuse my ignorance, but what is shift lock? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheUsualSuspect9 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 What does Alt+F9 do? sounds like it could be useful? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruskij Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 Excuse my ignorance, but what is shift lock? Sorry, is it Caps-Lock in english? You know - the key that you press to write in capital letters only. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
canvey!! Posted May 19, 2009 Share Posted May 19, 2009 I don't think so. Usually just Firefox, and I would have been using that when the shortcut worked. Try it without Firefox. Also try going to Options > Preferences and then Shortcuts (on the sidebar). Find 'Save Screenshot' towards the bottom of the list. See if it remains Alt+F9. If it does and it still doesn't work, try changing the shortcut. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elrithral Posted May 20, 2009 Author Share Posted May 20, 2009 I changed the shortcut to Ctrl+C and it's working fine now. Thanks for your help folks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
