A Few Command (⌘) Combo's for Macs

In this post, I'd like to point out a few Mac keyboard commands that may speed up your browsing and editing. To use them, hold down the command (⌘) key and press the second key once.

Browsing: Stop and refresh:


⌘ + "." (a period–without quotation marks) = stop loading
⌘ + R = Refresh or Reload

Those two commands may be useful if:
  • a webpage you're opening doesn't open as quickly as it should, or 
  • a document or webpage you're viewing may have changed recently.

Editing: Select, copy and paste:


⌘ + A = select All
⌘ + C = Copy selection
⌘ + V = paste here


In general, you can use the similar commands on other operating systems that have a control (ctrl) key instead of a command (⌘) key.
