Facebook keyboard shortcuts
Before using Facebook keyboard shortcuts, determine the modifier keys for your computer, which is based on what browser and operating system you are using.| Win & Chrome | Win & Firefox | Win & IE | OSX & Firefox | OSX & Other |
| Alt | Alt + Shift | Alt | Function + Ctrl | Option + Ctrl |
Tip: If you are using Internet Explorer, after pressing Alt + # let go of both keys and press Enter for the shortcut to work. For example, press Alt + 1 (let go) and then press Enter to open the Facebook home page. * Also, the M to open a new message in Internet Explorer does not work, since it is the home shortcut.
