What combination of keys (fn, control, option, command, arrow keys) is the equivalent of the Home key on a MacBook Pro?
What about End/PageUp/PageDown?
Answer
Home is Fn ←
End is Fn →
Page Up is Fn ↑
Page Down is Fn ↓
Forward Delete is Fn delete
Insert is Fn return*2
They used to label these on older MacBooks/PowerBooks.
Note 1: Not every application respects this, or behaves as expected.
Terminal is a notable example; for Fn arrow to work as expected when coming from a Linux background, the settings must be changed.
Note 2: OS X by default has no Insert functionality, however it is respected in some situations being Virtual Machines, Bootcamp, other Remote Desktops. Notably it also works in Google Chrome extensions that expect the Insert key for some other functionality (other than overtyping, which does not exist in OS X). Be careful though, in text boxes, dialog boxes and the like, it will always act as an enter key.
