How Do I… Learn Quick Tips About Mac OS X’s Finder? (itunes)
I am starting a new series of Quick Tips. The first series is about the Finder. This screencast is quick tutorial on how to use some of the shortcuts in OS X.
Quick Tip #1:
Apple + Tab - this is a quick and easy way to scroll through our all of your open applications.
Quick Tips #2:
Apple + Space Bar - this shortcut activates Spotlight. It is a quick way to search for a document or open an application.
Quick Tip #3:
Control + Click (or right click on a two button mouse) - alot of people dont realize you can right click on the Mac. If you Control Click on the desktop you can create a new folder, create a burn folder, get info on an item and more.
