Posted by on January 25, 2013

Learning how to use a mac when you are used to using a pc can be a daunting process. I know because I have just recently had to start learning this skill. The thing that I really missed about the PC was the shortcuts that I already knew and now had to relearn. So here they are..

  • Command-? Mac Help
  • Command-A Select All
  • Command-C Copy
  • Command-D Duplicates current item
  • Command-E Ejects selected volume, media, or server
  • Command-F Find
  • Command-H Hide current application
  • Command-I Opens Get Info dialog for selected item
  • Command-J Toggles View Options Open & Closed
  • Command-K Connect to server
  • Command-L Creates Alias for selected item
  • Command-M Minimize a Finder-folder to Dock
  • Command-Option-M Save as above but minimizes all open Finder-folders
  • Command-N Opens up new Finder window
  • Command-O Opens selected item
  • Command-Q Quits active application
  • Command-V Paste
  • Command-W Closes Finder-folder window
  • Command-Option-W Same as above but closes all Finder-folders
  • Command-X Cut
  • Command-Z Undo
  • Command-Del Moves selected item to Trash
  • Command-Shift-A Opens the applications folder
  • Command-Shift-N Creates a new folder in the selected workspace
  • Command-Shift-Del Empty Trash
