Mac how to re-assign keyboard shortcut

Question

Mac OS X 10.6

In System Preference > Keyboard > Keyboard shortcuts, "Show Spotlight search field" and "Select the previous input source" keyboard shortcuts are conflict to each other. It seems can only be restored to default value. Can I customized re-assign them? Thanks.

Answer 1

Double-click on the assigned shortcut, and enter anything you want.

See Apple's Knowledge Base article, Mac 101: Set your preferences (in particular, its "Customize Your Keyboard Shortcuts" section) for details.
