The Command key (⌘), used in most Mac keyboard shortcuts. The key functions as a Meta key in Unix-like environments, and is equally equivalent to the Windows key in Windows environments, although in common applications it performs the same function as the Windows Control key. To use a keyboard shortcut that is the same as a default Mac OS X keyboard shortcut, you must first turn off that Mac OS X keyboard shortcut. On the Apple menu, click System Preferences. Under Hardware, click Keyboard, and then click the Keyboard Shortcuts tab. Christmas danger mac os. For the keyboard shortcut that you want to turn off, clear the check box.

When a Macintosh is powered-up or Restarted ('booted'),various pieces of Mac ROM and System software examine the keyboard,and take special actions if certain keys are held down. This pagesummarizes the actions.
Booting involves several phases; startup keys take effect atdifferent times depending upon the phase. Sometimes the same keyhas a different effect depending upon which phase it is sensed.Generally, you should hold the indicated keys down until the desiredaction takes place.
Boot ROM
Command-Option-P-R | Zap PRAM (double boot) |
R | Force PowerBook to reset the screen |
Command-Option-A-V | Reset AppleVision Display (1.5.2 or later) |
Command-Option-T-V | Force Quadra AV (only) to use TV as a monitor |
Command-Option-X-O | Force Mac Classic (only) to Boot from ROM |
Mouse button | Eject Floppy, then boot from SCSI |
Command-Option-Shift-Delete | Bypass the device that is selected in the Startup Disk control panel; boot from the first bootable device other than that. |
Command-Option-Shift-Delete-# | Boot from a specific SCSI ID, where # is 0 through 6 |
C | Boot from internal CD-ROM (Most late model Macs) |
N | Boot from network (iMac and later models) |
D | Boot from the internal hard disk if the default boot device has been set to something else |
Z | Boot from an internal Zip drive |
O-F | Access Open Firmware (on G3 and later models) |
T | Boot into FireWire Target Disk mode (on certain FireWire-equipped Macs) |
Upon appearance of the happy face, let go of any boot keysyou may have needed, then immediately press any keys you needto control ..
Mac OS System startup
Control | Invoke MacsBug upon startup. |
Option | In Mac OS 9.x, on a startup disk having multiple system folders, invoke dialog to choose System Folder. |
Command | Boot with Virtual Memory off |
Shift | Disable all Extensions and Control Panels. Release Shift when the message 'Extensions disabled' appears in the welcome box. |
Space | Open extension manager before loading Extensions or Control Panels. Release the Space bar when the Extensions Manager displays its screen. |
Holding the Shift key early in the boot sequence disables allExtensions and Control Panels. Individual Extensions and ControlPanels may disable themselves upon seeing the Shift key laterin the boot sequence, but the timing for this is difficult toachieve! Upon loading, an Extension or Control Panel is supposedto display its icon in the 'icon parade.' If the iconis displayed at boot time, but the Extension or Control Paneldisables itself because the Shift key is held or some error conditionis detected, it is conventional for a red X to be drawn over itsicon.
