Keyboard shortcuts / tab in apple dialog boxes

I have searched the internet for how to do this. There are are two ways.

  • 1. Secret-shortcuts, they are:
  • Don't save: Command-D
  • Cancel: Command-. or Esc
  • Save: Return (assuming it's the default)
  • 2. Tabbing:
    1. Goto System Preferences
    2. Select "Keyboard and Mouse"
    3. Select the tab "Keyboard Shortcuts"
    4. Towards the bottom of this window, there is the option for "Full Keyboard Access" -- set this to "All Controls"

      Example:

    5. Done!
