A client of mine recently made the big switch from PC to Mac and asked me if I had any handy tips vis-a-vis keyboard commands. So without further ado…
There are plenty of them, but for starters here are the ones I use a lot.
command + n = new page
command+ s = save
command + h = hide (very useful but commonly assumed by Windows users that this quits an application, when in fact it leaves the app running in the dock so it can be used again in a hurry)
command + q = quit application
command + i = get info
command + w = close window
command + option + h = hide all other windows
command + shift + a = show the “Applications” folder
command + option + eject = put the Mac to sleep
Exposé
F11= slide all windows to reveal desktop
F12 = launch widgets
Spotlight (search your computer)
command + spacebar = launch spotlight
