If you’re working on a large, multi-layered document and you have the Move tool (V) active, you can jump to the layer you want by Control-clicking (PC: Right-clicking) on a portion of the image. A contextual menu will appear with a list of the layers beneath the point where you clicked your cursor. To make one of those layers the active layer, just choose it from the menu. It’s important to note that if there aren’t any layers beneath where you’re clicking (or the layers are transparent where you’re clicking), the only layer that will appear in the menu is the Background layer.

When you’re working in Curves (Command-M [PC: Control-M]), once you’ve plotted a curve point, you can rotate over to the next point in your curve by pressing Control-Tab (PC: Right-click-Tab). To rotate back to the previous point, add the Shift key to make it Shift-Control-Tab (PC: Shift–Right-click-Tab). If you’ve got one or more points selected and want to deselect all your points, just press Command-D (PC: Control-D) to release all your points.
