"Next error" seems buggy per https://twitter.com/philipdurbin/status/345540405615525888 ... the most reliable way to navigate to the next error using only a keyboard is to compile your project, hit Cmd-4 to bring up the Output window, arrow up and down over the blue links, and hit Enter to navigate directly to the line with the error. You can also use Ctrl-e ("Next Error in Editor") to jump to the next line with an error but this also jumps to lines with warnings and there is no way to go back.

On Mac, Mission Control interferes with using Ctrl-leftArrow to go "back". Mission Control wants to use this keyboard shortcut for "Move left a space". Per Stack Overflow go to System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts and under "Mission Control" disable the ctrl-arrow sequences.
