org mode - how to disable some keybindings?

I started using Emacs (currently for org mode only). I don't use priorities in my TODOs, hence I'd like to disable S-UP and S-DOWN key bindings (which loop through the priorities). How can I do this?

@lawlist gave you the recipe in his comment. Here's how to find this out for yourself.

  1. See if there is a keymap variable for the mode in question - typically there is one. In this case, try C-h v org-mode-map. If you find no such variable, fish around a little, using the apropos commands - for example, M-x apropos-variable org-mode.

  2. Bind the key(s) in question to nil in that keymap:

    (define-key org-mode-map (kbd "S-<up>") nil)

C-h m gives you info about the current mode. Sometimes it lists the important key bindings for the mode. And C-h b (anywhere) lists lots of key bindings for the current context.

If you want to see all of the key bindings that belong to a given keymap variable (in human-readable form), then load library help-fns+.el and then use C-h M-k followed by the keymap variable name (e.g. org-mode-map). See Help+.
