KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS
______________________________________________________________________
This list of key combinations and shortcuts is by no mean complete,
nor do all these keys work on every model of Macintosh with every
System version. Nonetheless, it should give you a solid reference for
increasing productivity (use both hands, not just the mouse!) and
some troubleshooting tips.
+ STARTUP KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS
Hold down the keys until you get the cue indicated in parentheses.
Turn off system extensions - Shift (until "Welcome to Macintosh -
Extensions Off")
Rebuild desktop files - Command-Option - (until alert)
Starting Up From a CD-ROM - Hold down the lower-case "c" key at startup, OR:
Bypass startup device - Command-Option-Shift-Delete - (until "Welcome" screen)
Eject disk - Mouse button - (until disk ejects)
Close all windows - Option - (during desktop build)
Disable virtual memory only - Command - (until Welcome screen message)
Disable startup items only - Shift - (After loading extensions)
Open Extension Manager - Space bar
Rebuild Hard Drive Desktop - Command-Option keys while Starting or restarting
RESET THE PARAMETER RAM (PRAM)
- Command-Option-P-R + Startup or restart.
Release the keys after second startup chime or beep.
(Default settings - serial port speeds, default application font,
mouse scrolling rate, etc. - are stored in PRAM.
Zap the PRAM to clear these settings and reset them to default
values, then reset your control panels' settings - including Virtual
Memory and Appletalk, both active by default.)
------

They must be used from the Finder, not from an application.

Erase Floppy Disk - Command-Option-Tab keys + inserting disk
Get Info - Command-i.
"ABOUT THIS MACINTOSH"
Change the menu from "About this Macintosh" to "About the Finder" by
holding the Option key while selecting "About This Macintosh" under
the Apple menu.
------
+ GENERAL KEYBOARD SHORTCUTS
These can be used either from within an application or in the Finder.
Screen Dump - Command-Shift-3
Screen Dump - Command-Shift-4
(Captures screen image to a PICT file on startup volume)
Hiding an Application When Switching to the next
application - Option key + switching applications.

------
FORCE-QUITTING KEY COMBINATIONS
Using this feature returns you to the Finder after an application has
frozen. From there, you can save your work in other applications. Be
careful, since it may corrupt the System, files and applications. Try
not to use it with Filemaker - you may corrupt your database beyond
any recovery.
ALWAYS restart your computer after that, since the System is rendered
extremely unstable by a force-quit
Force quit application - Command-Option-Escape
Force interrupt application - Command-Power key
Warm restart - Control-Command-Power key
