Shortcuts list will not display

[Anonymous]

Hi there. I've just migrated from a PC to a MAC and need to learn all the shortcuts. When I go to Keyboard Shortcuts in Work Environment and click on the 'Show shortcuts list in browser button' however, nothing happens. My browser is Safari 5.1.1. Does anyone know why this might be so please?
Thank you. Jaq

You need to make sure that Safari is your DEFAULT browser, not just installed. Launch Safari, open Preferences > General and verify that it is shown as the default browser...

Your signature says you are running 10.7.2, but if that is the case, the current version of Safari is 5.1.2 Be sure that you run Software Update

Your sig also says you are running AC 9 START edition ... but this will not run on 10.7.2 because it is a PPC program ... so what version are we talking about?

Cheers,
Karl

Thank you for such a quick reply! 🙂 And my apologies for the error (correction duly made). I've done the installation so am now on Safari 5.1.2 (set to default). Unfortunately it's still not working 😕

Are you running Parallels or Fusion or some other virtualization software to run Windows (or Linux)? Parallels, for example, can be set to over-ride the default browser (and mail) settings - redirecting such things to a virtual machine's browser ... and the shortcut business wouldn't work in that case.

Can't think of anything else - it should just work. Hopefully someone else has an idea.

Cheers,

PS I just tested with AC 12 and it works fine for me in Lion. Maybe there is something amiss with START edition...
