Is a particular keyboard shortcut in Mac OS X giving you grief? If you want to remap it to something you’d like better, there’s a handy little setting in System Preferences that can help you out.
This handy little trick is ridiculously simple. Open up System Preferences and then choose Keyboard. Click the Keyboard Shortcuts tab and then the plus sign. This will provide you with a little panel that will let you override a keyboard shortcut for a specific application or all applications. All you have to do is type in the exact menu title of the command in the panel and the new keyboard shortcut you want to assign to it. When you’re done, click add, and it’ll immediately be the active keyboard shortcut for the command you specified.
Keep in mind that you can take the same basic steps to create a new keyboard shortcut in any application, so it’s not just about remapping current shortcuts.
