I used to use this but i just rebinded my mouse forward and back to do that for me. God i love side buttons. as far as renaming just click on the name in the right spot and wait and it will allow you to rename.

hahahahahahahaha, good luck with that ^_-

Its so easy renaming MP3's I should make a video about it using all the shortcuts.

What I do is open the album folder click the first song hit f2, rename the file (in the format of ## Title - Artist - Album) once I do that I ctrl+C the 'Artist - Album' and then press enter. Down arrow, f2 rename ## Title Ctrl+V. Rinse repeat.

Or if you wanna look like a pro just rename all the ## Title first. Then go back to the top and do the ' - Artist - Album' with space before the first hyphen and just spam f2, ctrl+V, enter, down arrow, over and over.

Then I go into properties and copy everything.

right click on the place where you need a new folder, then press w, then press f. There must be a better way to do this though.

I learned most of these when my mouse was broken for like 2 months.

I didn't even know it was possible to do so much with just a keyboard.

Apparently there isn't one out there that is shorter. Looked it up on google, and it says windows doesn't provide one.

However,

there is a 16K .exe ^^ that allows you to set a keyboard shortcut to create a new folder. Haven't tried it out, but hopefully it works for you.

I don't like these tag programs. I wanna rename the files/folders/ID3 how I want them and even if I am allowed to do that with this program (by setting up my format), i'd still have to fix spelling errors, capitalize, rename each song title anyways. and you still have to put thr tracks into order and specify which is which.
and I'll usually fill the comments with featured artists or producers and what not.

I'll dl and check it out though.

imo that would be more useful with creating a new TXT document.
what i usually do is just leave an empty new text document.txt on the desktop, write some shit in it and then save it as something else.

Nice! I didn't know about some of these.

Keyboard junkies should also check out Vimperator.

Awesomely useful if you can learn how to use it. (You won't ever have to touch your keyboard again when using FireFox)

I abuse these so much

I cant believe this guide doesnt have a proper ctrl + w -> close window, and lists alt+enter twice (and I only use alt enter to maximize videos/dos/whatever)

also in vista ctrl+tab (or was it windows key+tab) does an alternate alttab animation that shows the actual windows

Accessibility Keyboard Shortcuts
• Right SHIFT for eight seconds (Switch FilterKeys either on or off)
• Left ALT+left SHIFT+PRINT SCREEN (Switch High Contrast either on or off)
• Left ALT+left SHIFT+NUM LOCK (Switch the MouseKeys either on or off)
• SHIFT five times (Switch the StickyKeys either on or off)
• NUM LOCK for five seconds (Switch the ToggleKeys either on or off)



lolol
first thing I do with a new computer is disable those shortcuts

most annoying thing ever

never even seen these before

Only obscure one I know of is the sticky keys when u press shift 5 times really fast (which i learned on accident in some flash game). Still don't know what the fuck it does though.

Also, I don't know if this is in there but if you press the first alphanumeric character when in a folder it will jump to it. So like
C:/Program Files then press 'S' and it'll take you to starcraft (or near it anyways).

and if you keep pressing it it will scroll down through the S's. \


This is the same kind of idea when you are in your cell phone contact list.


Actually it can handle more than just the first alphanumeric character, so in case you have a bunch of stuff that comes alphabetically before Starcraft, you can actually type star and it will go to that folder. I'm unsure of how much delay it allows between letters before it resets though.
