Shortcut To Switch Between Apps Mac

I really need to find a way to switch between windows within the same program from the keyboard. For example I have two or more documents open in Word and have to copy-paste from one to another numerous times. So switching from one window to the other is really pain.

In Windows Alt+Tab does that but on a Mac, this combination only switches between programs, not windows. Do you know a keyboard shortcut for this? Thank you!

  1. Find downloads on a mac. Switching between windows of the same app: Cmd+ ` (right above the Tab key)
    Switching between tabs in safari, chrome and other browsers: Ctrl+Tab

  2. You should go to System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard shortcuts. On the left there is 'Keyboard & Text Input'. When you click that, you'll see 'move focus to next window' line on the right. Click on the symbols and then change it as you wish :)

  3. I had this exact issue when I first switched over, and to tell you the truth I almost kicked myself when I realised what the shortcut was.
    It’s Command+` (the tilde “~” key above Tab) App to play mod files on mac keyboard.

  4. With an experienced Apple tech, you might be able to change the response of the keys to the English language.
    In response to your question about changing windows within one program, I find that Cmd-tab brings up program options only. On the menu bar, under Window, you will see a list of the windows you have open. You might see numbers although I doubt it. If the numbers are there, you use Cmd-1 etc. Otherwise you can choose your window from the list. It's not the best work-around, but I would tend to have the windows open and overlapping so that I can simply choose a border with a touch/click. The cmd+ tilde is also an excellent answer and perhaps the simplest so have you tried the equivalent key on your keyboard bearing another symbol, or the tilde which appears to be next to the Z.

    • Thanks for this idea Gillian! I changed keyboard shortcut and ta-daa it's done :)
      Thank you again.

  5. Though we can use command + , or there is another option called parallel desktop which helps u to work on both the os together! :)
    Google it for further info!! cause i don't use mac!

      Command quit on mac. Wait a few seconds and then hit the Power button again to boot the Mac.As you may presume, this method is not perfect. Any unsaved information may be lost due to the sudden shutdown.

      Apfs error mojave base mac software. Nov 01, 2019  From what i've read, Mojave should already be APFS but there are some circumstances where you can end up with Mojave journaled extended instead. Is there a way to convert to APFS.without. wiping the drive, or do i have to do the Recovery Mode, use Disk Utility to erase and format the drive as APFS (is there a guarantee that APFS will not be. Apr 04, 2019  Note: I've accidentally formated the SSD as APFS before erasing it and selecting GPT/Mac OS Extended (Journaled). Either way - installer is trying to 'convert' a partition to APFS and failing at 2 minutes remaining. I wouldn't mind to run my Mojave from a Mac OS Extended partition if.

      So I don't have that key sadly :(

  7. I've always just used Control+Tab (and Control+Shift+Tab to go backwards). It's worked in every app I use on a regular basis. I'm tried Command+Tilde, but that doesn't work for me. Perhaps I don't have something configured correctly? Or configured oddly?

    • But did that control+tab combination work for Word? I don't think so.

    • Thank you Douglas but that key doesn't have a place on my keyboard (it looks like this: http://image.cdn.sahibinden.com/photos/73/69/40/big_71736940ph9.jpg )

Jan 10, 2012  If you are like me, you often have a number of applications and files open at the same time. Since I usually want to switch back and forth among the open windows, I need something easier than hunting down each window so I can click on it. Windows 7 with Aero themes does provide thumbnails on the taskbar for easy clicking but often I want a keyboard shortcut. Here are three that.
