Switch between windows on mac?

In Mac OS X, is it possible to switch between windows using a keyboard shortcut? More specifically I want to switch between windows within the same application. An example is I have multiple Firefox windows open. I want a keyboard shortcut to switch between the Firefox windows (or any other application's window). I'm aware of Command-Tab but it only switches between applications (and not windows).

I'm looking for the equivalent of Windows' Alt-Tab, which switches window instances and not application instances.

Besides

  • Command-` and
  • Shift-Command-`,

you might try using Exposé to switch windows. Hit F10 (or Control-F3 if your F3 has an Exposé icon on it), to activate single-application Exposé. Then you can use the arrow keys to pick a window (or point and click with the mouse). While in this single-application mode, Command-` and its shifted version cycle through the active applications instead of the windows in an app (since all the windows of the app are already visible).

Command + `

(That's on the tildie key...)
