Useful Eject-Key Shortcuts

leave a comment

Here is a quick tip for all my Mac wielding friends.  The eject key does more than just spit out disks.  Using the modifier keys (command, control, option, shift), the eject key will give you more control over your Mac.

  • Put screen to sleep:  Ctrl – Shift – Eject
  • Put computer to sleep: Option – Command – Eject
  • Restart computer: Control – Command – Eject
  • Shutdown computer: Control – Option – Command – Eject
