I was then able to use all shortcuts associated with that key as mentioned by Problem solved.
MAC KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS YOSEMITE MAC
I did not switch to a mac keyboard, but instead downloaded a program for key remapping called " Karabiner" which allowed me to change the purpose of the F1 key (I don't think I've ever pressed F1 before in my life anyway so might as well make use of it) to adjust display brightness. Some of OSX's keyboard shortcuts are tied to these function keys and if your 3rd party keyboard doesn't have function keys, OSX will not even display those shortcuts under the display panel. Mac keyboards have specific keys set aside just for performing system functions like adjusting display brightness and music settings. It seems to me like there should be a few more than just two keyboard shortcuts right? How can I get the "Toggle Mirror Display" shortcut?įigured it out thanks to comment from The problem was because I was using a 3rd party keyboard. I've looked through the other panels (Services, Spotlight, etc.) but I don't see this shortcut or any other shortcuts for the keyboard listed under any of them. Where did the shortcut for toggling mirror displays go? Why is it not displayed in the options on this panel? Did they remove it in Yosemite or is there something I need to do to get it back?
I have never modified any of the shortcuts for anything on this machine. There is no + button to add a keyboard shortcut because Apple says it will not allow you to create custom keyboard shortcuts for anything except "App Shortcuts" but this is not an app shortcut. I checked in system preferences > keyboard > shortcuts > display and there are only two shortcuts listed there: In Yosemite however, when I try to use this shortcut, my mac just makes that "thunk"/"beep" kind of warning sound like when you try to move a file to the trash if the file is still open and the display does not get mirrored. In past versions of OSX you can toggle between mirror displays (if you have more than one monitor) and extend displays with the keyboard shortcut ( Command + F1).
