How to Switch Between Applications

You can switch between open applications anytime by moving your arrow cursor down to the Dock at the bottom of your screen, then moving it directly over the icon for the application you want to switch to and clicking once on it. You can also switch right from the keyboard itself by holding down the Command key (that's the key with the little Apple logo on it, found on both the immediate left and right of the Spacebar key), then tapping the Tab key on your keyboard. This brings up a large row of icons at the center of your screen for each open application (as shown above). To switch to another open application, keep holding down that Command key, then tap the Tab key. Each time you tap it, you select the next application's icon. When you've selected the one you want, just release the Command key.
