    This shortcut doesn't work for me. Is it possible I'm doing something wrong?

    Use Option + Function Key + Page up

    No shortcut* but you can use snapping to snap to the CTI or you can reveal the in and out point and add frames by simply typing a +1 or the new value for the in point.

    *Edit: Except for the shortcuts Todd posted. I claim temporary mental block due to lack of sleep....
