Shortcut doesnt work

[darksider]

This morning, i have noticed that the shortcut for "SAVE" (apple+S) doesnt want to work. For example, i want to save some just edited document and - nothing. I have to choose the option from the menu...

Pls, could somebody help me?

What app are you running this in? Do you have any key changing apps installed? :)

Apple+S doesnt work for me at all. Even in TextEdit or Safari... And i have no key changing applications... i dont understand...

Okay, do you have Microsoft Office? If so, try it there. Also, create a new user account and see if it works there too. While we're at it, check that the keys work individually. Does COMMAND-H hide an app? Does OPTION-S give you some strange symbol? :)

No, i dont have microsoft office.
Ok, but i tried to create some new account and everything was fine there...
Anyway, in my account other shortcuts seems to be all right

You might have been playing around in the keyboard control panel.

EDIT: I mean System Preference panel. I've been working in Mac OS 7 a lot tonight and I'm very tired now...

Yeah, click Restore Defaults in the Keyboard Shortcuts pane of Keyboard & Mouse in System Preferences, just for fun. :)

Including the prefs, etc? I would Spotlight them, drag everything to do with them to the trash, then restart.

Yes, everything is gone... strange... never got this problem before....

Well, the words clutching and straws spring to mind but I guess my next step would be to open in turn the applications I usually use (ideally all those used since the problem started) and see if Apple-S has been appropriated by any of them. Of course it shouldn't make a difference once the application is closed but at least it might highlight a conflict.

Really, no clue... no highlighted conflicts, no other problems...
maybe i will reinstall the system.... the final solution... :( funny, just for one small shortcut, but... you probably know that feeling :)
anyway, thank you guys....
