i had the same moment of panic and ended up removing old keys and regenerating my keys that are in use. i wish i'd seen this comment beforehand -_-


i'm so confused as to why Spotify removed the ability to search within a playlist recently. such a useful feature is now gone, really leaves a sour taste in my mouth.


Still down for me


I'd love to be able to fully control and test the browser without using my mouse. I try my best to only use the keyboard when editing which makes the switch to 'mouse mode' even more painful.


Funny you should mention that, I just got an external custom programmable USB keyboard from XKeys. I got the 68 key version with the jog dial.

I can launch apps, I have shortcuts for:

- most frequently used apps (including 3 browsers)

- common shortcuts (command-R, Command-Shift-I, Command-Q)

- one-touch window control (resize between 4 preset widths)

- a numpad specialized for inputting numerical CSS values

And then the rest are like shift keys that change the function of the shuffle wheel. The wheel can scroll, change screen brightness, move the cursor, select text, change volume, zoom in browser and more.

Here's a quick screen capture of me using it on my first week having it. Everything you see here is contolled from that one extenral keyboard, no alphanumeric keyboard or mouse used for the duration of the recording,
