    MACBook how do you.
    Open another Safari window without having to put the curser on the icon and press CTRL-Enter. I know there's another easier way because it happened once on error but I have no idea how. Thanks

    Have you tried either COMMAND-t (for new tab) or COMMAND-n (for new window)? I believe these work in FireFox, so they may work in Safari as well.

    Command-Tab will show you all running applications. If you have turned on Expose, you can tile all open windows with the F9 key and select the one you want. If you just want application windows, you can do it with F10 (similar to what Command-Tab does). The F11 key will move all windows aside temporarily and show you the desktop.

    Another great feature is Spaces; if enabled, you can specify the number of Spaces you want and have an open set of windows in each. I usually have four Spaces when I'm working: one for editing files, one for tracking time spent and billing my client, one for task tracking, and one for Lotus Notes (email and calendar). You can use F8 to select between Spaces.
