Hi all,

Do you know how to use the tab button in OS X like in vista? You can see the picture below:

I cannot use tab button to "select" the tick-box "remember me..." in OS X, but I can do it in Windows. Anyone know how can I choose that box without the mouse?

Thanks in advance.
 
I believe it is a web browser feature. In Safari's Preferences under "Advanced" there is an option to "Press tab to highlight each item..."

Otherwise you need to hit option+tabb

I'm not sure about Firefox though. It might just do it all the time.
 
Go to system preferences and under Keyboard & Mouse/Keyboard Shortcuts you can select full keyboard access to switch focus between all controls, instead of only textboxes and list controls.
