I remote into my work PC (Win7 machine) using Citrix Receiver 11.8.2 for Mac OS X (Yosemite). I have a MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014). Im trying to get the Alt-tab functionality to work inside my Citrix session, to switch between applications within Citrix. Currently, option-tab is simpl.

If you prefer to work from the keyboard as much as possible, you may find the following keyboard shortcuts handy. If you have changed the Preferences setting for the hot-key combination, substitute your new setting for Ctrl-Alt as needed in the shortcuts listed here.
Shortcut | Action |
|---|---|
Ctrl-B | Power on. |
Ctrl-E | Power off. |
Ctrl-R | Reset the power. |
Ctrl-Z | Suspend. |
Ctrl-N | Create a new virtual machine. |

Alt Tab Mac Same Application
- On keyboards made for Windows PCs, use the Alt key instead of Option, and the Windows logo key instead of Command. Some keys on some Apple keyboards have special symbols and functions, such as for display brightness, keyboard brightness, Mission Control, and more.
- Alt-Tabbing in Windows shows currently open windows and allows to select one of them which then becomes the active window. If there are 3 Firefox windows, then it'll show 3 icons. A slightly different behavior is available in Mac where it shows one icon for all the open windows of an application.
- Alt-tab-macos brings the power of Windows' 'alt-tab' window switcher to macOS. Download the latest release and extract it in your Applications folder. If macOS refuses to run the application because it's from an unidentified developer, right-click the application, choose Open then click Open in the prompt that appears.
