When I use dvd capture it takes a picture of the whole screen and not just the movie scene. Am I doing something wrong? I wish there was a command-shift-4 option for it.

I know this is old, but im new, and this is Very Cool.

Old thread, I know, but the simplest method I've found is this:
System Preferences -> Keyboard & Mouse --> Keyboard Shortcuts, and then change "save picture of screen as file" to something simpler than apple+shift+control+4 or whatever it was. I used apple+F13, because F13 was free and it's sort of close to where the PrintScreen key is on a PC keyboard.

I don't remember if you have to go to
System Preferences -> Universal Access --> [x] Enable access for assistive devices
first.

erm, i have a question. i pressed cmd+shift+f3, and.. well, what happens afterwards? where does it go? i figured it'd copy to the clipboard like it does in windows, but when i press the buttons and then try to paste it into photoshop, nothing happens. what am i doing wrong?

not f3 just 3 goes right to desktop

wow, thanks, i realized that RIGHt after i closed the browser and saw a million .png files on my desktop, lol

you can hold control with the command to copy straight to the clipboard.

Guys.. where can I find F13 on my keyboard and you know that logo for shortcuts that looks like an "X"? Thanks.

[Macman]

since you are on a laptop, there is no f13 key, only up to f12.
and what s shortcut that looks like an X?

[Aptmunich]

You probably mean the clover shaped icon...
It's the command key: The one with the apple on it.

Not the apple logo... sorry guys! I can't explain properly. well, How do you open the "Special Charaters" in Safari or add "New Smart Folder" in Finder using shortcut? There's keys you need to press and I don't know the first key. :black:
