After pressing CMD + F and typing "apple" on a given web page, how do I cycle through the results using a key command?

CTL + N *used* to be a keyboard shortcut for this, but it stopped working for me a while ago. Did a new key command replace it?

Thank youuuuuu.

I was in the vicinity of that page but couldn't find the exact shortcut. Thx so much for the quick response!

The Next and Previous buttons on the Find bar no longer have a text label (they only have an arrow) and and has caused them to lose their access keys and thus you can't use Ctrl+N and Ctrl+P anymore. So you need to use the keyboard shortcut.

It is possible to restore the text labels with code in userChrome.css if you want, but you can't restore the access keys. See this thread about this subject:
