[Bill Davis] “That little voice in my head telling me NOT to reply from my iPad, but to double check my suggestion on my desktop machine instead of relying on my memory was right yet again.

I *hate* it when that happens. ; )”

I knew what you meant. 😉

Just been trying to sot this out again today…it’s annoying.

The offending shortcuts (Control, 2,3,4) have the words “System reserved” next to them in the Command Editor.

I did have to disable a system shortcut in Keyboard OS preferences to get control 1 to work (Mission Control switch to desktop 1 is also Control 1).

I’ve been on to Apple and trashed prefs and trashed system refs but still no cigar.

Bizarrely if I log in as another “guest” user and launch FCP, those shortcuts are not greyed out in the command editor and work.

Somebody clever out there may know????

Have a good weekend all

I think you answered your own question.

It sounds like you or someone added custom system wide shortcuts to control 1-4.

You have to track them down and disable them.

Look in the Sys Prefs > Keyboard > Keyboard shortcuts.
