    I am retired teacher and pre Covid we had to learn Google in about 3 weeks. They just dump it on us. The district did purchase a tutorial package, but it was awful. We were You Tubing tutorials just like this. Let me tell you, we spent a year with a huge learning curve, trial and errors, and frustration trying to master something we never used. However, now I feel like I can figure anything out easier than before. Thanks for the great video and keep up the good work!

    I have a Magic Keyboard but never knew the globe key did anything. I've been using the keyboard for probably at least 2 years lol. Thank you. You're a gem. I also didn't know there were keyboard shortcuts per app using the cmd key. I think I need to watch more of your videos.

    So glad I stopped by your page and posts Ellen! As a senior too I really enjoyed your post here on the Globe Key. Just purchased the the new iPad Pro 11 inch M4 over the weekend, so I’m anxiously trying to learn everything NEW so this almost 72 year old can keep up with my children and grandchildren! Sharing your page with a few friends today for sure!💯🤩👍🏽

    So, the Global key is the same as the Open Apple key was on the Apple IIe. Got it.

    Ellen, my globe key and command key work when I use them as commands, but when I just press the keys by themselves I do not get the menu that pops up that gives a summary of the commands. Why can’t I press the globe key to get just a list of the commands? Why can’t I press just the cmd key to get a list of the commands?

      Yes. I am using the Magic Keyboard attached to my iPad.

    • @EllensTipsForiOS

      Try restarting your iPad. If that doesn’t work Go to Settings > General > Keyboard > Hardware Keyboard > Modifier Keys. Check the Modifier Keys line up with what they should be. You might try restoring to Defaults and see if that fixes it. Hope that helps.

    A basic critical mass of knowledge is required before these excellent videos make total sense. Sadly, I am not there, and after four or five clicks on various buttons, I am into 'where the hell am I now territory'.

      Sorry Tom! I think if you are using an external keyboard this is a good starting point. Just follow the instructions and you should be good. Thanks for watching.

    Ellen, thank you so much for explaining so well about the globe key. I’ve never really understood what it was for until now. I use it for emojis only so can now apply shortcuts. Caron in UK x
