Anne, It's always nice to get even more than one asks for.
Thanks Linda -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Anne Robertson Sent: Saturday, April 17, 2010 12:32 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: I'm stuck, Please help Hello Linda, Command-W closes a window. On the Mac, you can close all the windows in an application but still have the application running. Command-Tab will cycle through all open applications, and Command-Accent sign will cycle through the windows of the front application. If you are in the Finder, Command-Accent Sign will take you through the open windows, one of which will be the Desktop. Other useful standard shortcuts are: Command-Shift-A takes you to the Applications folder; Command-Shift-U takes you to the Utilities folder; Command-Shift-H takes you to your Home folder; Command-Shift-O takes you to your Documents folder; Command-Shift-D takes you to your Desktop folder. These commands all work from the Finder. In any given application, the shortcuts are shown at the end of each menu item.
