Mac: Shortcut for switching between two windows of the same application [closed]

Tags:

macos

I want to switch between two different windows opened in the same desktop on Mac (El Capitan). I can't do it with cmd+tab. Does anyone knows how to do it?

None of the following shortcuts work as well: cmd+`, cmd+shift+`, cmd+number

The shortcut is defined in System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts

enter image description here

⌘` is the default, Check the shortcut and if it's enabled at all

Using CMD + Shift + Backtick allows you to cycle through windows. To select a specific tab in a window you can use CMD + a number.

You may have this disabled in your settings. System Preference > Keyboard > Shortcuts

This is a common issue in all [currently released] versions of 10.12 [Sierra]. Although there isn't a solid fix for it the quickest workaround is to go to the Apple menu > System Preferences > Keyboard > Text and in the lower left corner first click the '+' button then click the '-' button, close System Preferences and you should be good to go. You may need to do this after restarting each time but it only takes a second.
