To use a keyboard shortcut, press and hold one or more modifier keys and then press the last key of the shortcut. For example, to use ⌘ + C (copy), press and hold the Command key, then the C key, then release both keys.
Modifier Keys:
- ⌘ Command (or Cmd)
- ⇧ Shift
- ⌥ Option (or Alt)
- ⌃ Control (or Ctrl)
- ⇪ Caps Lock
- fn / Globe key
On keyboards made for Windows PCs, use the Alt key instead of Option, and the Ctrl key or Windows logo key instead of Command.
