Every PC user switching to a Mac should see
Dan Rodney's list of Mac-related symbols and keys, as well as
LifeHacker's superb guide to the Mac for PC immigrants. Particularly helpful tidbits:
- In Firefox for Mac, use Control+Tab/Control+Shift+Tab to toggle between tabs. This is similar to the inteface on the PC, except that the Mac Control key and the PC Ctrl key are really not the same.
- If you're in an application and you need to toggle over to the Finder, then back again, don't minimize the application. If you minimize it, there's no way to restore it without using the mouse. Instead, use Cmd+H to Hide the app. Then restoring is just a matter of Cmd+Tabbing back to it. (Now how do you hide all apps at once?)
