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. For the keyboard shortcut that you want to turn off, clear the check box. Press and hold all keys in the combination together, not one at a time. Shut down your Mac. Then press the power button to turn on your Mac. Then press and hold the keys as your Mac starts up.

Control features on your Mac
By default, the top row of keys on your Apple keyboard control many different features on your Mac. For example, pressing the keys with speaker icons adjusts the volume.
If your Mac has a Touch Bar, learn about using function keys on MacBook Pro with Touch Bar.
Use standard function keys
Standard function keys work differently depending on the app and the keyboard shortcuts that you've set up. Some apps have their own keyboard shortcut preferences that you can customize.
To use the standard function keys, hold the Function (Fn)/Globe key when pressing a function key. For example, pressing both Fn and F12 (speaker icon) performs the action assigned to the F12 key instead of raising the volume of your speakers.
If your keyboard doesn't have an Fn key, try pressing and holding the Control key when pressing a function key.
Change the default function key behavior
If you want to change the top row of keys to work as standard function keys without holding the Fn key, follow these steps:
- Choose Apple menu > System Preferences.
- Click Keyboard.
- Select 'Use F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys'.
If you don't see 'Use F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys'
If you don't see 'Use F1, F2, etc. keys as standard function keys', you might be using a keyboard not made by Apple. These keyboards might need a utility to change the keyboard functions. Check with your keyboard manufacturer for more information.

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.
Immediately upon the appearance of the (blank) menu bar, pressany keys you need to control ..
Finder startup
| Command-Option | Rebuild Desktop |
| Option | Don't open Finder windows |
| Shift | Disable 'Startup Items' |
