Default movement and control keys

Controls For Minecraft On Mac

W: Move forward. Double tapping will make the player sprint, as long as the hunger bar isn’t too low and the player is walking on land.
S: Move backwards.
A: Move left.
D: Move right.
Space: Jump. If you’re in creative mode, double tapping space bar will toggle fly mode. Holding space will let you fly higher. Touching the ground or water will turn fly mode off.
Left shift: Sneak. This will almost completely hide your name, which can be useful to hide from people on multiplayer servers.
It will also prevent you from falling off of blocks and will keep you in place when you’re on a ladder. If you’re flying, shift will let you descend. Touching the ground or water will turn fly mode off.
E: Opens up your inventory.
Q: Drops the current selected item in your hot bar on the ground.
Note that you can also use your mouse to drop an item in your inventory by clicking on the item and then clicking anywhere outside of the inventory interface.
Numeric keys (1-9): Selects the corresponding place on the hot bar.
/: The ‘/’ key will open up the chat window.
T: opens up the chat window on multiplayer servers.

These are the default keys, no matter which type of keyboard you’re using. So people who don’t have a QWERTY keyboard will have to change the controls in the game menu, which is accessed by pressing the Escape button.

Mouse controls

Your mouse is used to look around while in game, as well as aim your bow and swords and change the camera view in 3rd person and front view mode.

The mouse buttons work as follows:

Clicking it will swing whatever you’re holding in your hand. This is used to attack other players and monsters.
Click to move items in your inventory or other interfaces, like a crafting table.
Click and hold it to pull back your bow and release it to fire an arrow.
Click and hold it to break blocks, with your hands or specific tools.

Aim and click to place a block anywhere around you.
Click and hold to keep placing blocks, as long as there’s space.
Click and hold, while holding food, to eat and restore your hunger bar.
Click and hold, while holding a sword, to block, you will take less damage, but it’s often better to attack instead.
Click to use items, such as chests, levers and crafting tables, as well as shears on sheep and leaves, hoe grass and dirt into farmland and ride vehicles.

Scroll through the items in your hot bar. These can also be accessed by using the numeric number keys (1-9).
If clicked, switches to whatever block you’re looking at, but only works if the block is in your hot bar. In creative mode, scroll clocking will replace whatever is in the current hot bar slot with the block you’re looking at. Note that it only works if the block you’re looking at is highlighted, which is shown by the black cubic wire frame around a block that appears when you hover your mouse over any block that is close enough.

Shift clicking

You can also use your mouse and shift to perform specific tasks in the game interfaces, like the crafting table and furnace.

By shift clicking you speed block movement up in:

Crafting tables: Shift clicking on the crafted item will create the maximum amount of items you can make with the items in the crafting interface. It will also automatically move them to your inventory.
Note that it doesn’t always make only the item you want it to. When you place too much of certain items in the grid, the left overs will also be turned into items.
For example, if you place 4 wooden planks in a square, plus an extra wooden plank in 2 spots above each other, shift clicking the crafting table (which is created by the 4 planks) will also turn the remaining 2 planks into sticks.
Chests: Shift clicking any item stack will move it to either the inventory or the chest, depending on where you click of course.
Furnaces: Shift clicking items in the furnace will move them to your inventory.
Shifting clicking items in your inventory will place them in the furnace, but only in the smelting spot. Coal has to be placed in manually.
Your inventory and hot bar: Shift clicking an item will move it to either the inventory or hot bar, depending on where you click of course.
