Even Better: CMD-N, CMD-P
Authored by: lullabud on Mar 09, '05 12:47:56PM

If you're in any tab in the Info Window you can always use CMD-N or CMD-P to get to the Next or Previous song. This works great when changing one field on several songs because it keeps your cursor in the same box when it skips to the next file. I've used this to clean up my collection's tags and it sure saves a lot of mousing.

I tended to just leave the mouse over the 'Next' button, change the text, and then click the mouse.

It's cool how the same text box is selected, and I really like the text-box editing keys under OSX. I hate that under WinXP I can't press 'down' to get to the end of the URL in IE (the only browser on the work machines...) and so on.

I will use the Cmd-N/P controls though, I prefer using keyboard over mouse...

For those times when you're stuck with Windows, and you're editing in a text field, whether you're using IE or not: the Home and End keys will do what the Up and Down arrow keys do in an Apple text field. Home takes you to the beginning of a line; End takes you to the end of the line.
