Hi all,
I don't know if this is already a faq, but as I have struggled with this issue for quite a long time, I care to share my "discovery":
when I want to set a bookmark with the Command-F2 shortcut, I need to press the Command key first, the 'fn' key second (otherwise the F2 key increase the brightness of the screen instead of passing the value to the application), and F2 last.
If I press the 'fn' key first and the 'Command' key second, the bookmark is not set.
I would recommend switching the behavior of the fn key (in the Keyboard preference pane "Use the F1-F12 key to control software features"). I often use F1-F12 with modifiers, and not having to think about the order in which I have to hit keys is nice. The price is that it's less convenient to use the associated features, but I don't find it too bad.
