Q: Cannot switch input language with CMD Space

Now I'm running OS X El Capitan and cannot switch between input languages with the same old shortcut, Command + Spacebar. Instead of switching between input languages like it does in other versions of OS X, it seems to do nothing now.

 

Any idea?

MacBook, OS X Yosemite (10.10)

Hi DobaKung,

 

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you are trying to use a Mac keyboard shortcut and it is not doing what you expected. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

 

This has what shortcuts are available by default. 

Mac keyboard shortcuts - Apple Support

 

You can change the shortcut Command + Spacebar by going to System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts > Input Sources > check Select the previous input source. 

 

Cheers
