Mac keyboard shortcuts


Historically, Macintosh computers use special symbols for certain keys, including Alt, Shift,
Control, and Command keys. This guide uses these symbols as follows:

Shift - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Control - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Option / Alt - - - - - - - - Command - - - - - - - - - - - -

Function - - - - - - - - - - Mouse Click - - - - - - - - - -

Mac computers have a special preference for function keys in System preferences. This guide
assumes your Mac is set at the default, with Use all F1, F2, etc .keys as standard function
keys unchecked. In this state, you generally have to use the function key (Fn) when using
function keys (F1, F2, etc.)

Disclaimer
These shortcuts were tested with Excel 2010 for Windows, and Excel 2011 for Macintosh.
Many shortcuts should work with earlier versions of Excel, but not all. Shortcuts often do not
work on a particular computer because other programs, or the operating system itself, has
reserved some key combinations for another purpose.
