I have to say, I have been using Apple/Macintosh for, coming on, 42 years now and I have seen countless “Tips & Tricks” videos. I have never seen one more comprehensive, organized and most importantly, I have never encountered one where I was LITERALLY reaching for an old school pen and paper to try and quickly take notes because I didn’t know about something being discussed. Yea, I reached for that pen and paper about 10% into the video. WOW..!! I’m speechless as to how much this video covered that I never knew about before watching. OUTSTANDING JOB PUTTING THIS TOGETHER..!!
Anyone who's new or NOT new to Mac should "spare just one hour" to watch this tutorial. Even what I already knew was greatly expanded. If it wasn't for the fact that ALL your tutorials are helpful I might've said "This is the only one you need". Thanks Gary
I don't normally 'Like' or 'Dislike' videos on UA-cam even though I know I should. I have like more of your videos than any other channel that I watch. But this one would get a double or triple like. Just amazing.
I’ve used Macs for years, but still learnt a whole lot of new things - this is a really fantastic resource! A big thank you for putting this together, it’s really appreciated.
Most of these I already knew, but I could not quit the vid as I was constantly curious if there was tips or shortcuts I was unaware of. Thank you for all you do!
What a terrific resource! Nearly an hour but with the great list to view what's coming. Create a shortcut to this one on the desktop and it'll always be available.
Avid watcher of your videos for years. I find them educational and inspiring. Whenever I find a new Mac user, I always direct them to you. Thanks for the great video. 👍🏻
I just stumbled upon your channel, have now subscribed and will be exploring your video library. Thanks for doing what you do… I appreciate your unassuming and non-arrogant style of showing some great tips. You provide a great reminder of tips and tricks that I’ve forgotten existed and reintroduced things I knew existed but never used, … and best of all, surprised me with some new tricks I never knew existed. I’ve been a Mac user since the summer of 1984, after paying a premium price for the privilege of owning a 128k Mac… so, in August, it’ll have been 40 years. Wow… and I still love Apple… though, just like in most long-term relationships, there have been ups and downs, frustration and excitement, often termed a Love/Hate relationship… but never a breakup or divorce. So, thanks again for reintroducing me to a long term love. Cheers…
This vid will be a very useful reference and I've already gotten some valuable stuff. The presentation is also Very good, very organized and easy to listen to. I appreciate the time marks in the description.
Incredible Gary! Thank you so much! I’m a Mac newbie returning to Mac after many years. I started on a Mac Plus, moved to a Quadra 700 then due to the limited number of apps for work at the time I was forced to switch to PC. Now that I’m retired I am back to Mac and just blown away at all the stuff you can do now! I have a lot to learn! Thank you for getting me started!
Hi Gary, I’ve recently changed from using a Windows PC to a MacMini, your UA-cam channel is fantastic, I feel I have learned so much very quickly watching your tutorials, thanks again
Crikey, holy smoke - I never knew that the vast majority of these were possible. Problem is....how to remember all of these tips, tricks and shortcuts, phew. Thanks Gary, you're a genius
I had planned to watch the first few tips and come back later to continue but just like a bag of chips...I couldn't watch just one. A hour later I got a head full of useful tips. Thanks again Gary.
Wow!, thanks so much for this. As a lifelong windows user moving to Mac, this video is the mother of all. It helps immensely to correlate Windows shortcuts to Mac ones and learn new ones. Thank you for taking the time out to do this and that too minus the annoying ads and in one single video with clear, lucid explanations!! (btw, love the sidebar scroll) HUGE RESPECT ✊🏼 Subscribed Already and can't wait to check out your other videos.
If you have many open folders you wish to close, Command A to select all then holding Command hit the left arrow to close all or right arrow to open all.
Just would like to say THANK YOU. Much appreciate. You make me feel soooo good to have a mac although I have been using it over 10 years now. And I almost know nothing of the stuff you talk in this video and others in your channel.
Oh there's no way I'm watching an hour of Mac tips...yet here we are, an hour later. Great stuff again, Gary. Just when I think "okay, what the hell could I be missing," you come up with quite a few more I had no idea about.
Enjoying your videos Gary - a new Mac user (although have had iPhones for a long time) so want to make the most of what is there - find your approach very non-confronting and with no condescending tone at all - even when explaining the basics ! Thanks :-)
I’m blown away! 👏🏾So captivating that I unexpectedly watched the whole video. This is my first MacBook and I’ve had 2nd thoughts because I’ve felt limited with it, but watching this video totally changed my perspective. I’ve been underutilizing it. Thank you so much!
1. Had forgotten completely about the option to float windows always on top (although they dont seem to make this available for all the apps, including the Finder ) 2. Had forgotten about the Command Shift 5 thing 3. Never even knew about some of the things Spotlight is actually genuinely useful for, like opening notes and conversions, 4. never knew you could put UA-cam videos to float like that from a browser. Thanks Gary.
I follow You since last 7 Years and learnt lot from you.- And This is THE best Life time- informative video-MUST keep for EVER-life saver Hour.I am looking better than Word "THANK YOU " for you... आभार.....आप हमारे लिए देवदूत हो ( Its in Hindi)
Impressive how you managed to cover so much in a short video. I have been using Macs for almost 15 years and even though I knew many of the tips you gave, there were loads of them I did not remember and quite a few, actually a lot of them, I did not know at all. THIS ONE IS A REAL KEEPER! Many thanks.
Good heavens Gary this is excellent! In years gone by one would have had to buy one of those 3” thick books from Macworld to get this depth of detail. Many of these I knew but many many I did not! I’ve saved, downloaded and shared it. Thanks once again for sharing this!
A very informative video tutorial today! Most of them were new to me. Aside from being useful it’s also very helpful. As always thanks for the visuals! Thank you, Gary! 👍👏🏻❤️
Just found this video what a gem ! quick question, 'cmd-m' to minimize an open app to the dock, what is short cut to reverse and put the app back on desktop? Thanks!
There is none. A minimized window would be in the Dock and a keyboard shortcut wouldn't know what you were targeting. Perhaps look into hiding instead of minimizing. ua-cam.com/video/FjCiKCy4UHA/v-deo.html
I love your little tricks on macOS. Since five years now I have a 2015 MBP, I thought I know all those tiny tricks on the system, but no. in every of your videos you show me more than once another thing that I didn't realized before. So thanks for that and your professional work!
A great review and some great new stuff..I will go though this video several times..thanks bunches...is one able to place sub folders in photos favorites as after a while favorites becomes large
@@macmost In my Photos there is a place called Favorites along with other other remade areas to keep pictures. Library, memories. places, etc. The place for Favorites is getting filled up with many favorites which makes it a bit hard to find a picture. Folders and Albums have always confessed me a bit. Anyway, can I make a folder or album under the favorites place to organized my favorites. I hope that makes more sense. This was really a great video today...I will be going through it many times I think. I am going to try to copy the topics you had on the right side of the screen and keep them for future reference. Again, super video.
@@macmost Actually I have never quite understood the difference between folders and albums as I have ended up with both in Photos. I am not sure why I would put something in a folder or put it in an album. I started with folders for years and made albums to put inside of them with labels like Christmas or Bicycling trips. When I came from a PC everything was in a year folder. Then events were in a folder inside the year folder. Probably not making much sense. Is "Favorites" a folder or an an album? Would I place another folder inside of it or an album. "Favorites" does not have much meaning if too many favorite photos are given the little heart. I will not use this forum for any more question on this issue. I need a video...Thanks for your patience if you might give and answer, that would be great. If not, I understand.
@@desertpatient Photos can be organized into albums. Only albums. Folders are a level above that allowing you to organize albums. So photos in albums, albums in folders (if you want, you don't have to). Favorites is an album. It I just a default album that is always there.
@@macmost Thank you very much. Might I place albums inside of albums? What I am trying to do is to organize Favorites? Thank you again for being so gracious with mej..
The usefulness and extraordinary utility of this video is hard to accurately or fully describe. Simply, absolutely and fundamentally amazing in its USEFULNESS! So many great and wonderful tips to save time and expand utility of our MacBook devices!
I stated in another video that I used IOS but never really learned how powerful a Mac is or the IOS I should say. I had the all in one 2011 it made it to 2017 because I had a hobby that works better on PCs at that time. I ditched Mac and went PC. Now I’m back and going full steam ahead with ecosystems. Gary will help this time immensely with these videos and I’m sure I’ll be taking a course or two as I have a Patron sub.❤
Hi your tutorials are great. I have a query. There is one command in window Shift+Alt+up or down arrow to rearrange paragraphs without cut, copy or paste. Can you tell me the parallel one in Mac. Thanks
A command like that would be a part of an app, not a part of the operating system. Which app on Windows had this? Perhaps the same one is available on Mac?
This video was quite useful for me, especially the options for resizing windows with the Option key and placing them into the halves of the screen. Thank you very much! 🙌🐻
Thx so much. What tools do you use to do the screencast ? I am impressed by the way you scroll the desktop by following the cursor. Is that thru the Apple zoom feature ?
I love the 1 finger double tap drag on my former Chromebook but I hate double tab drag on my Mac. even 3 finger drag is annoying on a Mac, would prefer if they had 2 finger drag because it's awkward with 3...
Very informative thanks, Apple put a lot of handy options. Now if they could just make it easy to move files straight out of my iPhone to an external drive attached to my mac
Not sure what you mean, but the Help menu lets you find other menu items. As for using menus without clicking, you may be able to use special Accessibility features to get that if you have difficulty clicking.
on the menu bar, i have dragged and reorganized menu bar, prior to this my screen mirroring was always in the same spot, now when i stop screen mirroring at some point it goes way over to the right side close to spot light search, any reason for this, i did move other icons over there such as accessibility which i never use. is it because certain icons are always near each other. im not sure why my screen mirroring doesn't stay put where i want it to stay.
That was great! Thank you so much! Maybe you (or someone else) can help me with the following problem: When I highlight a piece of text in Mail to move it, it turns blue. I can't get this piece of text moved. The blue selection then cancels as soon as I click on the selected text to move it. Sometimes, very occasionally I manage to move this blue piece of text, but I can't figure out why it suddenly works. It works in the usual copy/paste way. It works fine in most other programs like Word. Why not in Mail?
I assume you mean in the Mail composition window, not when trying to select in a Mail viewing window. Not sure why it would behave that way for you. Is the text you are trying to move something you typed, or something in quoted text from a message you are responding to?
@@macmost Believe it or not but currently the problem is no longer occurring for some reason. Maybe your response to my question was enough! :) I have tried in a self-formatted mail and with the text of a received mail, both directly and in a reply. Select text, hold down the mouse button and drag to another position in the text. It works as it should. Miracles exist.
Most of the Mac keyboard shortcuts are 3 or 4 keys long, I can type all Windows keyboard shortcuts without looking down the keyboard,but in Mac I have to look down even after practice no to do it.
Usually not. It depends on how the app developer created it. A quick Command+q will do it. Or Option+Command+Q usually lets you close windows and quit. But if you forget there isn't much to do. A document-based app without a window open isn't usually a problem.
I have to say, I have been using Apple/Macintosh for, coming on, 42 years now and I have seen countless “Tips & Tricks” videos.

one of the best videos on all UA-cam regarding macOS really really great work. Much appreciate.
Just bought the new 14" MacBook Pro M1. Never used a Mac before... I think I watched this video at least 15 times... Really helped me out...
I am mac user since 2012 , after watching this channel I am able to use my mac most optimally and efficiently
I’ve used Macs for years, but still learnt a whole lot of new things - this is a really fantastic resource! A big thank you for putting this together, it’s really appreciated.
Cornucopia of MAC tips well organized and presented. A digital reference book. Superb!
Literally - Enormous.
Haven't watched the whole video yet.
But will surely take out some time, and watch this in 2X speed
Best set of tips that I found on the Internet to date. Clearly Demonstrated and presented so well. You are my Hero.
Well Done, Must have been a lot of work and thinking. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Gary for all your tips, for the fact you have listed them so that we can find them back easily. A lot of work that is appreciated ...
Most of these I already knew, but I could not quit the vid as I was constantly curious if there was tips or shortcuts I was unaware of. Thank you for all you do!
Gary you are a rockstar! You made my experience of owning a Mac so fulfilling!
I’m just now completing this video. What a storehouse of information. Thanks Gary.
This video should be preserved by the Library Of Congress as a work of art and a sea of knowledge. Thank you!
This was such an AMAZING OVERVIEW of MAC every-day-use operations. Thank You!
Wow I’ve been a user for 13 years and I learned quite a few new tips! I will definitely implement when my new Mac arrives
What a terrific resource! Nearly an hour but with the great list to view what's coming. Create a shortcut to this one on the desktop and it'll always be available.
I added the page to my Safari reading list. It's also helpful to be able to go to a specific topic within the tutorial.
15:40, that's not just for Finder. It does it for whatever app you currently have open.
WOW! Quite the compendium! Definitely going to save this for future reference. Thank you!

Amazing tips and tricks for Mac apps!

Most of the Mac keyboard shortcuts are 3 or 4 keys long, I can type all Windows keyboard shortcuts without looking down the keyboard,but in Mac I have to look down even after practice no to do it.
Is there any way to quit the application when closing its last open window?
Usually not. It depends on how the app developer created it. A quick Command+q will do it. Or Option+Command+Q usually lets you close windows and quit. But if you forget there isn't much to do. A document-based app without a window open isn't usually a problem.
How can set, after how many minutes, can screen turn off when not plugged in power?
System Preferences, Battery.
