A post on a retired blog, Outside the Box.

Another reason to use a Mac

No comments. Posted May 4, 2006 in Mac, Outside the Box, WordPress.

Remember how I couldn’t log in to my WordPress admin page in Firefox on Windows, only Internet Explorer? (And even then the Tiger-like admin interface didn’t show up.) Well, Firefox here on my Mac works fine. As does Safari. Yet another reason not to use Windows if I can help it. ;)

Using this Dell keyboard with OS X was getting a little frustrating, since I kept hitting the wrong keys (Command was the Windows key, etc.). Then I found a way to switch the keys so they’re where they should be:

  • Go to System Preferences
  • Click on Keyboard & Mouse (it’s under Hardware)
  • Make sure you’re on the Keyboard tab
  • Click on the Modifier Keys… button
  • Change the Option Key to map to the Command key
  • Change the Command Key to map to the Option key
  • Click OK and enjoy!
