You should definitely know these five shortcuts:

1. Unfortunately, most MacBook keyboards lack the Delete key. Use the combination “fn” + “Backspace” (delete/backspace) to retrofit “entf”.

Use the combination “cmd” + “Tab” to switch between all active applications.

2. Press “cmd” + “Space” to open “Spotlight” and search your Mac for files and applications.
3. Use the key combination “cmd” + “Shift” + “4” to create a screenshot in sections. With the crosshairs that appear, simply drag the area that you want to depict.
4. Hold down a letter for a long time and a pop-up opens with umlauts, special characters and accents. If you press the number under the special character, it is inserted. The function is available from Mac OS X Lion.
