Ubuntu 18 Intellij Shortcut Conflict - intellij-idea

Recently almost all my intellij shorctuts (defaults) stopped working. For example F9 which is a shortcut for "Resume program" currently shows all windows side by side. I've already tried solutions proposed in similar threads, I've looked into keyboard settings and did not found any conflicts there. I've also used dconf editor in order to make sure I did not miss anything - no luck there either. Any idea what may cause this?

I've figured it out - as it turned out my FN key was in always ON mode.

Intellij IDEA search functionality always stops working

The find in path search works on newly cloned/downloaded repos. But I notice after a few days, all search functionality in the IDE just stops working. Searching for anything string turns up 0 results in project, module, directory paths. Anyone else experience this? It's infinitely infuriating T.T
OS: Mac
Version: Intellij IDEA Ultimate 2020
Settings: only default
Please, try to invalidate caches via File | Invalidate Caches / Restart option.
It's a known issue IDEA-266391 and you can update IntelliJ IDEA to the 2021.1.1 version with the fix.
So it turns out this is happening whenever I change branches. So your suggested soln above works well. thanks!

Keyboard locks Win10 IntelliJ

Using: Windows 10
IntelliJ version: 15(.0.3)
Problem:
I currently have issues that several keys suddenly are 'locked' or something. Keys a-z, 0-9 and some others. Keycombinations like CTRL+F... etc., DELETE, BACKSPACE keep working. The keys are locked everywhere in Windows. And the combinations can still be used everywhere.
When happens this:
This happens when I work in IntelliJ and it always happend when I double pressed a String for selecting it, but not the first time (random). So maybe this is a key setting in Windows or something.
Temporary solution:
Reboot. :(
I already saw the following post: Weird keyboard locks in IntelliJ IDEA (delete & arrow keys, etc.)
This is an older post and there is assumed that I need to uncheck the Vim Emulator. I don't have this plug-in.
Edit: Current solution
Re-installed IntelliJ.
I've encountered this exact same issue and the the removal of the VIM plugin (didn't have a VIM emulator) fixed it, under intellij 2016.2.4 on windows 10.
Open settings -> Plugins -> search for VIM -> remove

Intellij 13.0.2 is always on top

I recently upgraded from Intellij 12 to 13.0.2 on a Windows XP PC. Apart from minor settings like toolbar missing etc rest looks fine.
However the most annoying issue is that Intellij doesn't allow any other window to be on top of it. If I open a browser, it automatically goes behind the Intellij window.
I already tried setting the "Always on top" to false.
I know it sounds very trivial and stupid, but is there some setting that I need to change ?
Try to restart your IDE - this should normally solve the problem.
It seems to be an error in the IDE that will probably be fixed soon. Since there is this simple workaround, it might take a while till they fix it.

Intellij IDEA 13 - Can't open Project Structure dialog anymore

as already described in title, i'm not able to open the project structure dialog window in intellij anymore.
neither the shortcut (Ctrl+alt+shift+s) nor the menu element under File -> Project Structure nor the little button in the upper right corner do work.
Clarification: Menu element :
This "bug" occured suddenly as I wrote a web (vaadin/maven) project and tried to set up glassfish, where i often had to switch to the project structure dialog.
Since the first occurence i wasn't able to fix it by restarting intellij or switching projects.
This also happened on my laptop running the same intellij and windows version (Ultimate 13.0.1 Build: 133.331 on Windows 7 x64)
i appreciate any help!
This also happened to me, but removing new plugins etc didn't help.
Nor did nuking my project and rebuilding it from scratch.
In the end I deleted all caches, restarted Intellij and at last I could access the project settings again! By the way, I'm using Intellij 11.1 - mainly because I can't get 13 to start up, but that's another story
Your log shows that it is a bug in IntelliJ IDEA - they are trying to create file passing null pathname. Try to delete project files and reopen project from scratch (maybe you've lost some file) - if it won't help then you should create an issue here: http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/ - You can even copy-paste text from your question and attach stacktrace
I had the same issue...upon further inspection in the log dump...I noticed the following:
ERROR - llij.ide.plugins.PluginManager - com.intellij.openapi.fileChooser.FileChooserDescriptor.setTitle(Ljava/lang/String;)V
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: com.intellij.openapi.fileChooser.FileChooserDescriptor.setTitle(Ljava/lang/String;)V
at com.jetbrains.python.sdk.PythonSdkType.getHomeChooserDescriptor(PythonSdkType.java:247)
Disabled the latest Python Plugin and restarted and everything is working normal again.
I remembered I had recently update my python plugin and am not using it presently so I was able to disable it without issue.
Hope this helps someone else.
This also happened to me. The comment above helped. I had just added some plugins. Disabled them and it started working again. Not sure exactly which one because I disabled all 4 -- Bean Validation Support, Bitbucket, Jelastic Cloud Platform Integration, and Quick Notes.
For me it has been resolved by switching off FindBugs plugin and restart IDEA. So Project Structure is available for me now.
One of the plugins might be causing it. To disable a plugin, go here:
You'll know for sure if a plugin is bad if you see this Exclamation picture:
Clicking on it will bring up a pop-up. To disable the plugin, click on this:
For me it got resolved just by restarting the intelliJ IDEA. I'm using intelliJ IDEA Ultimate 2018.1 edition.

gedit broken shortcut keys, has mod2

I have been trying to play around with gedit and came across the "shortcut editor" plugin. But somehow, it messed up my key bindings. It no longer works. Everytime I try to setup a new shortcut, I get a "Mod2" addition to the bind.
How do I reset to the default key bindings? How do I remove Mod2?
Thanks,
Wenbert
EDIT:
Google does not seem to return any relevant results regarding this issue.
I had the same problem but I solved it by toggling off the numlock
I'm going to answer my question. I have solved it after hours of trial and error.
I was connecting to my Linux machine running gedit using Synergy. So I jsut transfered the keyboard to the USB port running the linux machine and then reconfigured the Shortcut Editor Plugin for gedit.
The shortcuts are now properly set by the plugin.
