Hello,

I have a conflict in keyboard shortcuts.

I was using command k combo to change between the language input(korean <-> English).

I also want to use shortcut for 'connect to server', but it is also tied to command k shortcuts.

What is the osx's intention behind this? Is there anyway I can change them -- either of them's default keyboard shortcut?

Please let me know.

thank you.
 
Hmm, I thought the default for switching input languages was Command-Space. Did you customise it in the first place?

Here are the defaults on my system:

Yes, I did and I simply forgot how to change to different.
I change it to command L(for language which makes more sense).

thank you.

Also, I don't like the fact that command k(to connect to remote server) only works in finder's page.(which means I have to go to the desktop first by clearing what I have on the screen and then press command k)

Does anyone else find this annoying?
 
You could change the "Connect to Server" shortcut in System Preferences >>> Keyboard >> Keyboard Shortcuts.

No. You can change the "Connect to Server..." shortcut there. 😉

Without the ellipsis the shortcut will not be recognized; I know because I just made that mistake and needed ten minutes to discover it!

You could use CMD+TAB to switch to the Finder, no need to clear the windows, and then press CMD+K, which all in all should take about a second.
