If you will quickly navigate windows and Microsoft office by
the help of keyboard shortcuts like CTRL-S for saving and CTRL-C for copying,
one is shocked if one decides to switch to Mac OS-X. The reason is these kinds
of familiar shortcuts will not work as they used to. Macs will boast about the
same functionality. Apart from this, Macs will boast about similar
functionality but they will also make use of the command key instead of the
control key. Instead of using standard key combinations that many users of the
PC have knowledge of like for example save, copy and paste; Macs will feature shortcuts
that are similar to the operating system of Apple. One can go to the list of
handy shortcuts that the budding PC user may know:
Command Option Esc—Force Quit
Command Option M-Minimize windows of application to Dock.
Command-Option-W: Close all windows in the application
without quitting.
Command-Tab: Cycle forward through open applications.
Command-Shift-Tab: Cycle backward through open applications.
Command-Shift-F: Search all files.
Command-Shift-A: Search all applications.
Command-Space bar: Open or close Spotlight search field.
Control-A: Move to beginning of line or paragraph.
Control-E: Move to end of line or paragraph.
Command-Option-D: Show or hide the Dock.
Command-F3: Show the desktop.
