    Ctrl+Tab not switching tabs

    After updating to El Cap 10.11.3 from Yose: Switching between tabs in Safari or Finder doesn't work using Ctrl+Tab. It works only for switching between tool buttons. In Chrome and Firefox it still works as before. Have had this problem before upon updating major versions.

    Cut/Paste Files and Folders in Finder

    It's 2016 and Apple still hasn't added this basic functionality into the finder... at least not properly. The UNIVERSALLY accepted method to cut/paste has always and forever should be cmd+x and then cmd+v. This is true for all applications I've ever come across except for the Finder. For the...
