UIS Tip of the Week: Mac and Windows Keyboard Shortcuts

Tired of using menus for every little action you need to perform? Try using these keyboard shortcuts, which can be a powerful and quick alternative to using menus. They may also give you some relief from the mouse, which affects many computer users.

To use any of the keyboard shortcuts, just hold down the first key while pressing the second key. So, for example, for "Ctrl + A", just press and hold down the Ctrl key while you press the "A" key. If the keyboard shortcut has three keys, press and hold the first key, then press and hold the second key, and, while continuing to hold down both keys, press the third key.
