EDITED BY JO MEMBERY

When you see a shortcut like

ç+å+C, hold all but the

last key, then press that one.

ç is the Command key,

which is also labelled cmd.

å means the Option key,

labelled alt or opt.

≈ means the Control key,

labelled ctrl, and shown as ^

in shortcuts in the menu bar.

ß is the Shift key, which is

typically just labelled shift.

∫ means the Delete key,

which deletes to the left of the

insertion point. Press ƒ+∫

to delete to the right.

† is the Tab key, which shifts

the focus between some

controls in windows and web

forms. Turn on Full Keyboard

Access in System Preferences

to jump between all controls.

Master Mac keyboard shortcuts

A tap is a brief contact of

(usually) one finger on your

device’s screen.

To drag is to move a finger

across the screen to scroll

or pan around content.

Swipe means move one or

more fingers across an item

or the screen, then let go.

A flick is like swiping, but it’s

quicker, and is often used to

scroll content more quickly.

Pinch means move two

fingers together or apart,

usually to zoom in or out.

Touch and hold means lightly

rest your finger on an item

and wait for a reaction.
