With my left, I want to move forward (next picture) and
back (previous picture) via keyboard shortcuts. I know
there is a forward (>) and back (<) on the left
side of the Preview window, but I don't want to move the
mouse across the screen while I could do it faster and
more comfortably with my left hand and a keyboard
shortcut. The default shortcuts are Alt+Left and
Alt+Right. Both of these defaults makes me reach all
the way across to the right-hand side of the keyboard
and using the Alt+ is uncomfortable.</span></p>

My guess is that single keys are used to select the album which
starts with the letter you typed. Doesn't your first album start
with letter "B"? On my system, nothing happens when I type "B", but
the first album is named "Photos" and the selection indeed moves to
the first album when I hit "P"<br>
<br>
You are trying to issue a command, so you should try with a function
key or letters / digits combined with Ctrl or Alt.<br>
