Customize Keyboard Shortcuts
1. Quit any open applications by using Ô+Q.
2. Open System Preferences and then click the Keyboard &
Mouse icon to open the Keyboard & Mouse settings, as
shown in Figure 1-7.
3. Click the Keyboard Shortcuts button to bring Keyboard
Shortcut settings to the front, as shown in Figure 1-8.
4. Scroll down the list of available commands to find the
one you want to customize.
5. Double-click the shortcut you want to change. Make
sure you double-click the actual shortcut listed in the
Shortcut column, not the command listed in the
Description column.
6. Press the new keyboard shortcut that you want to use
for the command.
If the shortcut you want to use is assigned already to a different
command, a yellow warning triangle appears next to the duplicated
shortcuts. If you see the yellow warning triangles, at least one
shortcut must be changed.
7. To disable a keyboard shortcut, remove the check mark
next to it in the On column.
8. Close the Keyboard & Mouse preferences window to
save your changes.
If you’re unhappy with the keyboard shortcuts you’ve customized
or if you’re using a pre-owned computer that was customized by
someone else, open the Keyboard Shortcuts settings and click the
Restore Defaults button. This restores all keyboard shortcuts back to
their factory defaults.
