Is there a Macbook keyboard shortcut on Logic Pro that will take me to the beginning of a project timeline?
I have been told to hit the Return key, but that only causes an error flash on the screen.
MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 26.5
Follow up -
Logic may not return to zero if you are recording.
If you are recording, you can press the space bar to end recording, then Return to return to zero.
Loop recording can be enable to record a "take", and then automatically return to the record start location to record a second take, then a third and so on.
You could also take advantage of locators and location markers that you can set and recall with keystrokes.

Return works, but your system settings may be overriding that. macOS shortcuts override app shortcuts.
Go to System Settings > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts, then click Restore Defaults.
That fixes these things 90% of the time.
just hit enter, as long as you'er not recording. it works whether its playing or not, unless you also have a loop cycle active, then it goes back to the start of the cycle instead
The Return key is the appropriate shortcut, unless your keyboard has been remapped in some way.
You might quit the app and relaunch it if you're having a problem with that.

EDIT - there may be certain conditions within Logic that will produce what you are seeing, such as being in an editing mode. I'm trying now to replicate that, but no luck at the moment.
