    I think MANY of your subscribers would APPRECIATE a tutorial on how to USE the Mail App for Apple. I have Google as my home page and use GMAIL but would PREFER to use Apple Mail but can't figure out how to make a custom signature with my 'card' attached to it. THANK YOU for considering making such a video for your fans. Gratefully, Mac

    Amazing. I’m a developer on Mac since over 20 years and in my arrogance I smiled at your headline … but i gave it a shot just to reinsure that nothing is new to me … but … 🎉 …most of them were and I’m happy and thankful!

    Well I thought there were some really good ones in here to be reminded of - might start using the placing things in Finder headers as I've got so many items in my sidebar I struggle to find them!! - a useful one similar to the holding command to open in a new tab is that option+command clicking on a link opens in a new window - the command click also works on folders in the finder too (which is good when you want to leave the original folder open and not navigate away from it). Really pleased to know that one about the other image formats in Preview (saves me from launching PS just to convert a file)

    Been using Mac since 1986 (and Windows since it was DOS).
    Always neat to see stuff I didn’t know about beforehand.
    I think the built-in apps are great; much smoother integration than with most third party apps

    Interesting tip on folder in top of finder window. I prefer to keep those in the dock. You can drag a folder to the dock (for example, next to the Downloads folder) and click it to see the contents and even open it in Finder. Very quick access.

    You could also add "Desktops" to you tips. I keep different work stuff broken up into different desktops. This also allows me to share a screen/desktop during a call and not have other open windows potentially visible to those on the call.

    Thank you so much for the inbox notification tip. How can you make this work for the iPhone and iPAD though, do you know? I still get notified on my Apple Watch if I get a new email that goes right into the Junk folder and on the iPhone and iPAD you don't have the same extended settings do you? I always wondered how Apple decides which notification settings to follow if they are different on the Mac vs the iPhone&iPAD

    Wonderful and informative video, thank you. One thing I cannot get to work on my iPhone iPhone 15 Pro: if somebody sent me an invite using an ICS in Apple mail, I cannot add it to my calendar and accept it at the same time. It does not appear in the New event part of the calendar. Is there a trick? Thank you!

    I'm interested in moving to a Mac and I'm curious which do you prefer, MacBook Pro or MacBook Air? And at this point the price isn't the objective but rather which do you prefer.

    • @johntamplin
      @johntamplin 13 днів тому

      As always, the answer depends on what you're going to do with it. The Pro is a powerful beast and comes with a powerful pricetag! The Air is still very capable unless you are doing (for example) lots of video editing or something else that requires a bit more grunt power.
      My only suggestion at this point is that, since you are new to Mac, start with the Air. If you decide the Mac ecosystem is not for you ("burn the heretic!") then you will have spent a lot less money.

    Any chance you could present some tips for manually putting PDF's videos and ebooks on an iPad.
    I currently use an android tablet because I can copy over files into a folder that I make of anything I want to view only tablet.
    At first glance it seems iPads are for buying things through a store and getting them added that way.
    All my magazines etc are through normal sites and I download them.
    I presume there must be an easy way but have not found one yet.

    Please could you make a tutorial on this in your coming video or just tell a step-by-step method in the comments only?
    In Driving Focus there is an option to auto send a preset message to the person who has messaged you while you're in the Driving Focus mode while driving the car to avoid distractions but the limitation is that it only works with iMessage. So, I was thinking could help in creating an automation that will send the same sort of preset message whenever receive any message from a contact on WhatsApp while my Driving focus is enabled.
    Why WhatsApp? Because here in India everybody uses WhatsApp as their primary app/mode of communication
    Please consider this one in your coming video, please!!
