Useful Mac Shortcuts

Photobucket

I have been a Mac user for about a year and have gathered some shortcuts that I find to be real useful. A whole list can be found here on the Apple site, but the following are the ones I use regularly.

  • Switch Applications = Command + Tab
  • Spotlight Search - Command + Space Bar
  • Print Screen = Command + Shift + 3
  • Print Screen Selection = Command + Shift+ 4
  • Print Screen Selection and Copy to Clipboard = Command + Shift + 4, then hold Ctrl while selecting.
  • Using the Delete button like a PC Delete (where it deletes a character to the right, not left). I think I read that this works only on portable machines = Fn + Delete
  • Move file to Trash = Command + Delete
  • Hide / Show Dock = Command + Option + D
  • When in the Finder, you can create a new folder = Shift + Command + N
  • Put Computer to Sleep = Command + Option + Eject
  • Force quit = Command + Option + Escape
  • Turn on Zoom = Option + Command + 8
  • Zoom In = Option + Command + Plus (+)
  • Zoom out = Option + Command + Minus(-)
