Using the shortcut keys

You can use the Copy, Cut and Paste shortcuts to easily copy and edit text on your Mac. This can be helpful when entering passwords, especially if the password is randomly generated. To use these (or any) shortcuts, you will use the Command key on your keyboard. It should be in the lower section of your keyboard, on either side of the space bar.

If you are not using an Apple keyboard, this may be the Windows icon, or possibly the logo of the keyboard manufacturer. It is sometimes referred to as the Meta key.

Command Key

Holding the Command key and hitting the X (cut), C (copy) or V (paste) will allow you fill in your login fields without worrying about mistyping your usernames or passwords. To copy and paste text, follow these steps:

  1. Select the desired text to be copied. This may be done by clicking and dragging with your mouse to select the text you want copied. Highlighted text will look something like this.

  2. Hold down the Command key and "C" at the same time to copy the desired text. The Command key is sometimes referred to as the Apple key because it has the Apple logo on it.

  3. Select the area where the text is to be placed and click the Command key and the "V" key at the same time. The copied text should now appear in the area that you selected.

TIP: When copying usernames and passwords, make sure there are no spaces before or after the username or password.
