Find keyboard shortcuts
Find the keyboard shortcuts for a tool, button, or menu command by doing any of the following:
For a tool or button, hold the pointer over the tool or button until its tool tip appears. If available, the keyboard shortcut appears in the tool tip after the tool description.
For menu commands, look for the keyboard shortcut at the right of the command.
For the most-used keyboard shortcuts not shown in tool tips or on menus, see the tables in this article. For a complete list of default and current shortcuts, choose Edit > Keyboard Customization. (Windows), (Mac OS in CS5) or Premiere Pro > Keyboard Shortcuts (Mac OS)
In CS5.5 and later, use the search field in the Keyboard Customization dialog box to find specific commands quickly.
For more details about improved keyboard shortcut customization in Adobe Premiere Pro CS5.5,see this blog post on the Premiere Pro work area.For more information about changes to the keyboard shortcut dialog in Premiere Pro CS5.5, see this video from Video2Brain.For information about using Apple Final Cut Pro or Avid Media Composer keyboard shortcuts in Adobe Premiere Pro, customizing keyboard shortcuts, and to move custom keyboard shortcuts to a different system, see this video by Kevin Monahan and Karl Soule on AdobeTV.

Customize or load keyboard shortcuts
You can set shortcuts to match shortcuts in other software you use. If other sets are available, you can choose them from the Set menu in the Keyboard Customization dialog box.
1. Click in the item’s shortcut field to select it, and then click the Edit button. You can also double click the shortcut directly to select it.
2. Type the shortcut you want to use for the item. The Keyboard Customization dialog box displays an alert if the shortcut you choose is already in use.
3. Do one of the following:
To erase a shortcut and return it to the command that it originally had, click Undo.
To jump to the command that previously had the shortcut, click Go To.
To simply delete the shortcut you typed, click Clear.
To re-enter the shortcut you typed previously, click Redo.
4. Repeat the procedure to enter as many shortcuts as you want. When you’re finished, click Save As, type a name for your Key Set, and click Save.
Note:
The operating system reserves some commands. You cannot reassign those commands to Premiere Pro. Also, you cannot assign the plus (+) and minus (-) keys on the numeric keypad because they are necessary for entering relative timecode values. You can assign the minus (–) key on the main keyboard, however.
Franklin McMahon provides a video tutorial on the Layers Magazine website that shows how to customize keyboard shortcuts.This video shows you how to transport your customized keyboard shortcuts to other Premiere Pro editing systems.Here is a tutorial by Clay Asbury about starting with the Final Cut Pro shortcuts in Premiere Pro CS 5.5, and then saving a custom layout.
