Now, go straight to Chrome and refresh the page by clicking F5. Press F5 when in the Keyboard shortcut area.
Type ‘Refresh This Page’ for the menu title. Select the Keyboard Shortcuts button at the top Open System Preferences (I usually use Spotlight) A slightly modified version could be worked out to do this in Safari (if you really want that, just leave a comment and I’ll figure out and post the exact steps).įollow the steps below and you’ll be F5’ing it up just like me. Command + R is a regular refresh in your browser, Command + Shift + R is a hard refresh. I primarily use Google Chrome, so that is what these instructions are for. Use keyboard shortcut Command + Shift + R. They say, “Its the little things in life”, and this is one of those little things that makes me smile when I use it.
#Macbook shortcuts refresh how to
I was complaining to Dan about this and he quite easily walked me through how to make this happen. I know that ‘command – R’ is the Mac equivalent to F5 for a browser refresh, but I’m just so used to F5 (and I like just hitting one key), so I really wanted to have F5 work as the reload button. For the first month of owning my Mac, I hit F5, nothing happened, and then I begrudgingly grabbed the mouse and clicked the refresh button. If that doesn't work, hold down Ctrl and click the 'Refresh' icon.
I do my fair share of web projects, so I’m constantly refreshing pages. Force-refreshing a page will clear that page's cache, allowing you to see the most recent version of the page as opposed to any information your browser saved in the past: Windows Press Ctrl + F5.

One of the most annoying things to me about switching over to OSX was that F5 no longer did a full refresh.
