5 Mac Shortcuts you are Guaranteed to LOVE
We all use our Macs for one thing and it’s to help speed everything along. So why does it seem like your Mac does the complete opposite sometimes. The good news is that there are a few Mac shortcuts that will help you get things done, quickly.
So let’s get started…
1. Cmd+Opt+Eject – Go to sleep Mac
Have you found yourself in a hurry and need to put your computer to sleep quickly. This is your shortcut. With this shortcut you can put your Mac to sleep instantly, with no warning/dialog box. Now if only your body would work this way, lol.
2. Cmd+Ctrl+Opt+Eject – Shut it down, NOW
Not really a “put my Mac to sleep” kind of guy or gal, wonderful…there is still a great shortcut for you. Use Cmd+Ctrl+Opt+Eject to shut your Mac down instantly (again with no dialog box or warning).
3. F11 – Find your Desktop
You have so many applications open on your Mac and you couldn’t find the desktop if you wanted to. This is not a problem for your Mac, simply press F11 and your desktop will magically appear (not really magically, but you get my drift). Go ahead, try it!
4. F9 – Expose
Do you find yourself minimizing and maximizing your windows to see them all. Why when you have Expose? Simply press F9 anytime you want to see all the windows you have open, trust me, it’s much quicker.
5. Cmd+Opt+H – Minimize Windows
Speaking of minimizing your windows, with one shortcut you can minimize all of your windows (except the active window) at one time. Simply use Cmd+Opt+H and your windows are minimized.
I’ve shown you mine , now show me yours, teehehe! What’s your favorite Mac shortcut?
