Keyboard Shortcuts for MacBook Pro Mavericks

I am just trying to use shortcuts more often now. I only know a few. Can someone please give me a list that I can use for everything? From making my computer fall asleep to quiting prgrams to restarting my computer?
Thanks!

Keyboard shortcuts for Macbook pro and wireless keyboards.

I´ve searched for an answer to this issue because it seems so obvious, but I can´t seem to find anything useful. Perhaps I´m just terrible at searching relevant posts here. I apologize if this has been addressed before.
I´m taking some tutorials (from Lynda.com and Ripple training, to name a few) and in all of them, even those about very recent software, they keep aluding to ye olde long keyboards of yesteryear, when you had tildes and the plus and minus signs were on it's own keys. But most modern mac keyboards, on laptops such as macbook pro's, as well as desktop computers now, use the short keyboard. So, for example, if in the tutorial they explain how to reduce the size of a brush with a shortcut pressing command and the plus sign, that shortcut can't be used in a macbook pro, because to get the plus sign you also need a modifier, which completely alters the function of the sortcut.
Now, I guess one could simply edit every command individually, but it seems to me there's gotta be a simpler, easier way to fix this, since old long keyboards have been almost fazed out. It amazes me why don't the programs such as Final Cut, to name an Apple proprietary, just come with a preset for long and short keyboards at this point. But they still don't.
I hope someone can assist me with this issue, and I´m sorry about the syntax and grammar, english is not my native language.

Tom,
No I have not asked on a dedicated forum since this is an issue I've had with several programs (I should start to refer to them as apps), however, it's not a bad idea and I'll skim those forums to see if this issue has been addressed. Also, indeed you are right and I made a mistake in my previous post, the + sign comes up by just pressing that multipurpose key, with shift it will produce the asterisk and with option it will produce the bracket. I got carried away with Melophage's first post where the plus sign is used as an example. I apologize to both for my mistake, and I'll try to be more specific and careful in the future.
Tom and Melophage,
My keyboard does have the Spanish-ISO mode of input by default, and I've added the US input also, although I hardly ever use it. And indeed, being able to do something simple like zooming on a document or a web page with command and the plus sign is something I can easily manage. However, the things I usually have a problem with are, for example (and I'll be more specific this time), in photoshop cs6 to reduce or increase the size of a brush, you have to press either the left or right bracket. For me to get the left bracket, I have to press option and a multipurpose key that contains these three signs: ` ^ [. Now, in photoshop, as soon as you press the option key, the brush, or whatever tool you have selected, turns into the eyedropper tool, so pressing option and multipurpose key doesn´t get you a bracket, gets you the eyedropper and ignores any other key you press.
In final cut there is a similar problem with the bracket to make L cuts with a shortcut that uses the bracket, and both programs also make use of the tilde key, which I don't even have in my keyboard.
You both made me realize, of course, that the problem lies in my regional configuration of the keyboard, and that software makers probably just avoid the hassle of having to come up with multiple different sets of keyboard shortcuts due to those different layouts. I still think this is something that should be addressed right from the box, but now I realize it might not be such a prevalent issue, specially with people who have the US keyboard layout.

Final Cut Keyboard Template for MacBook Pro

I saw a rubberized FCP keyboard template that overlays the keyboard on a MacBook Pro, but can't remember where I saw it... Has anyone seen one? I might have seen it in a UK publication...
Thanks,

Keyboard backlight for MacBook Pro not working after update.

So I had an update for my Mac pop up yesterday, I completed the update and all was fine. I've just turned on my MacBook Pro again today and there's no backlights on the keyboard. I've tried adjusting it using the F5 and F6 keys but nothing happens other than a pop up on the screen (Pic attatched below) any ideas as to how to fix this? Thanks. :-)
PROBLEM IS NOW FIXED! :-)

Keyboard covers for macbook pro 15" unibody

Is there a website i can find quality keyboard covers for my Macbook pro 15" unibody for the following programs:
Final Cut Pro
Adobe (photoshop, after effects)
I also was looking around for a clear hard case.. is this one a good one? anyone have suggestions?
http://www.amazon.com/TopCase-Clear-Crystal-Cover-Macbook/dp/B00418QLNW

Depending on where you are it would be called google.xx and a third x when necessary. On another note, the covers on the apple.com site are quite good. I have the moshi one, it is really good. Except maybe that it gets a bit darker with time.

How to set Keyboard shortcuts for Flash Pro CS6?

I have started to use Flash Pro CS6, but my keyboard shortcuts such as F6 to insert a new Keyframe didn't work..I soon found that you could create your own Keyboard Shortcut list within the Flash application, and I am trying to enter F6 for a new Keyframe, but it only lets me enter one letter/number at a time and deletes the other one. I have made sure that F6 isn't in use. It now isn't, any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

if no shortcut works, try resetting your flash pro preferences:
Hold down Shift+Ctrl+Alt (Win) or Shift+Command+Option (Mac) when starting flash pro.

Keyboard shortcut for "Save a Copy" in Acrobat 9 Pro?

I cannot find a keyboard shortcut for Save a Copy in Acrobat 9.3.2. THere's nothing in the help docs.
Even more bizarrely, the idiots who designed the GUI assigned the y shortcut on the File menu to both "Modify PDF Portfolio" *AND* "Save a Copy", so hitting Alt + f, y performs only the former not the latter.
Any ideas or am I SOL?
Thanks.

Hi Dan,
"Save a Copy" is Adobe Reader.
It is not associated with Acrobat Professional's "File" drop-down.
fwiw –
For Acrobat Pro 9; a link to a free downloadable 13 x 19 poster in PDF format (for Windows and Mac) is at:

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
You will have to return the Mac and order one with a Portuguese keyboard, if you bought it less than 14 days ago.
If not, you will have to buy a new Mac (that's because some keys may not fit onto your MacBook Pro keyboard) or just set up OS X with a Portuguese keyboard but with US keys

Then you are not looking very well. The first one in the list has compatible wifi adapters. Mavericks compatable wifi adapters are included in most of the results from my link.
If there are not enough results included in the list try modifying my search term. Try this instead:
https://www.google.com/search?q=usb+wifi+adapter+for+mavericks
There are dozens/hundreds listed.
