Hii all,

I have a problem with the Animate cc shortcuts, when I'm trying to create a new keyframe using f6 nothing happen.

When I'm trying to change / define the shortcut in Edit > Keyboard Shortcuts , pressing F6 and it write Ctrl+c instead of F6.

It only happen with F6 , I can change any other shortcuts.

Yes, when pressing F6 in illustraitor it does perform a copy operation.

Using another Adobe program isn't really a good test. What about in Notepad, or a web browser?

If it also copies in those, then something on your system has remapped F6 to Copy.

If on a Mac, go to System Settings > Keyboard and check the box "Use F1, F2, etc..."

Note: If this box is checked, you'll need to hold down the Fn key AND the F1, F2, etc keys for them to work as intended for your OS.

Windows or Mac?

When you press F6 in other applications does it perform a copy operation?

You need to select the frame on the timeline and then click F6 in order for the keyframe to be added.
