I have a couple of suggestions.  First, when you get to the hotkey field, 
just type the letter j; ctrl+alt is added to the letter that you place in 
the hotkey field unless you specify some other combination.  After you do 
that, reboot the machine.  Sometimes you need to do that for the changes to 
take effect.

If that still doesn't work, you may have a conflict with some other 
shortcut, in which case you'll need to take inventory of what you have in 
your system.


Hope that helps.
Tom
