The MacMost Question and Answer Forum is a place where you can ask how-to questions about your Mac, iPhone, iPad and other Apple products. MacMost specializes in tutorials, tips and techniques of the “how-to” variety, as opposed to “fix-it” questions that are more about something not working as expected.2/27/19

In some Mac documentation the keyboard shortcut for Page Up is fn + up arrow. In other documentation the keyboard shortcut for Page Up is Command + up arrow. Did this change as part of an OS update? And if so, which shortcut is correct for which OS?
