Macos – OS X Keyboard shortcut to cycle between application’s active windows

keyboard shortcutsmacos

Here's my problem: I have an older Macbook Pro (late 2007) running 10.6.6. I was able to switch between an application's active window set using the keys CMD + < or CMD + >.

For example, I could cycle through Finder's open windows, or Chrome's different windows, etc.

Both have a German keyboard.

Now on my new Macbook Pro, this doesn't work anymore. The combination doesn't do anything, except for letting me hear the "bonk" sound.

How can I get this behavior of cycling through windows back?

Open System Preferences » Keyboard » Keyboard Shortcuts » Keyboard and Text Input. Look for Move focus to next window in application and change if necessary. enter image description here

The reverse direction is when you additionally press Shift AFAIK.
