Even though I know most of the Mac Keystrokes without thinking about them I always choose to read a post on them. Your tips are very helpful to the Mac newbie, and the less fortunate Veteran without prior knowledge, great writeup! And I love your blog even if I bought my first Mac over a decade ago, you help the recent switchers realize their new loves’ power!

Theres also a very important command that I use probably more than any other:

cmd+w

closes the current window of the program you are running, but doesn’t actually quit the application. for example, msn… if you want to close a chat window with one user without quitting the program. very useful!!

Totally! it’s kinda like my beef with (standard) schooling. You cram a bunch of students of the same age but different learning levels in a classroom and expect them all to learn everything at the same rate. It’s just not working…

But that’s a whole different discussion isn’t it?

That’s a good point, Brent. I guess if they’re making the software compatible with older computers, they’re probably not utilizing some of the latest technologies available. Sort of like if you go for a hike with a team and you all go the pace of the slowest hiker. It’s great for the slowest hiker, but what about the people who could go twice as fast? They could potentially see much more scenery…

Best!

I miss the good-old-days when you could hit cmd+shift+F to open the Favorites folder. Why is that no longer available in OS X (I am currently running 10.3.9).

Is there a simple way to regain this keyboard shortcut?
