keyboard command (CMD + =) not working to zoom in

CDM + = is no longer working to zoom in. I have to use cmd + option + =.


How can I restore this to the default?

MacBook Air, OS X Yosemite (10.10.3)

Howdy there devon_gap,


If I understand you correctly you the keyboard shortcuts to zoom in and out aren't working properly in on of your apps. I would take a look to see if there are any shortcut conflicts in the system preferences with these steps:


OS X Yosemite: If a keyboard shortcut doesn’t work

See and change keyboard shortcut assignments in Keyboard preferences




It’s possible to have keyboard shortcuts for one app that conflict with another app. For example, Command-Space bar opens the Spotlight menu, but in another app it might be used for switching between different input methods.

  1. Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Keyboard.

  2. Click Shortcuts. A yellow warning triangle appears next to conflicting keyboard shortcuts. Click the shortcut, then change it.


Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

All the best,

Sterling
