Can you be more specific?

I've lived with my new Macbook Pro for exactly a week now. Still learning all the shortcuts, but I unbelievable love this thing.
I haven't yelled at my computer in a week. Amazing!


Some basic shortcuts:

Command + Space = Spotlight Finder
Command + Down = Open directory/file
Command + Up = Go back a directory
Enter/Return = Rename file/folder
Control + Click = Right Click

Don't forget the mutlitouch finger gestures.


Google Mac OSX Cheat Sheets.

I can think of a finger gesture for Mac :)

    I would advise using the mac...they are easy to use after you get used to them...and to the guy with the finger gestures for mac...i think you need to spend some time yourself trying to use one...it may be to complicated for you but maybe you can learn to respect them...
