Bog: *uses macOS for 1 year* Me, a seasoned veteran that has used it for 10+ years: let's see what this guy learned Bog: *teaches me new trick I didn't know about in the first 50 seconds* Me: alright then

What disappoints me the most about MacOS is how all these awesome features are so difficult to find. There's nothing in the UI to indicate that they exist, which means that you can spend your entire life thinking that they don't.

Been using MacOS for years and yet I learned a few things. Thank you!

I’ve been using macos since 2014 and some of this shortcuts shocked me. Thanks😊

I'm just happy to see people try. I used Windows from about 1993 through 2009. I wanted to try something different and switched to Mac at home, stayed there until 2021 and switched back to Windows due to hardware issues (on a 12 year old machine, that's not surprising). Now I will say, I work in IT. Computers have been my thing since I was under 10 years old. I've used most flavors of Windows, MacOS, Linux, BeOS, etc and enjoy it and am good at memorizing layouts/keyboard shortcuts - so I'm not your average user. That said, I definitely recommend exploring OS's. Plus if there's something you don't like, don't blame the OS or say it sucks right away just because its new. Find out how to solve your problem, and you may even discover you can tweak it or do something even more powerful with a utility/shortcut. This is why I love computers, I don't get frustrated by them often, I learn them! As to CTRL+TAB between tabs/windows, this is useful for those that don't use the mouse as much. Once you build up muscle memory for keyboard shortcuts, you'd be amazed what you can do without leaving the keyboard.

Tip: if you enable "reduced motion" in accessibility settings, switching between workspaces feels way snappier and responsive.

I've used Macs since 2015 but used a Windows laptop for about 1 1/2 years and upgrading to a MacBook Pro in 2022. After watching this brought me back to some stuff I ended up forgetting. Thanks for the video and keep up the great work

3:00 It isn't impossible, you can just use your up and down arrow keys to preview everything in the folder, without selecting all of them

This video is great, thank you! I recently switched from Windows to Mac and your video's have helped!

Men your tips have been a lot more useful that other videos that I’ve seen. Since the first one! Thank you

In the touchpad settings you can also enable a 3-finger down gesture to do what cmd+down does and it also works when hovering on the icon in the dock!

You just got a new subscriber. I found a number of the shortcuts useful as I'm new to MacOS.

5:00 You can also right-click (or control click) on the name of the folder in the window bar, it will open up a context menu which shows all parent folders. all in all, great video. as a mac user for a while I was blown away by the first tip already haha

Thank you for making this video It really helps alot

Ty!! So much❤the first one is so useful!

My favorite is still that when you have an option. Say in the menu bar, and youngish alt. It slightly changes the action. For example. If you hold alt while clicking reboot, sleep or shutdown, it removes the three dots and skips the dialog to make sure you really want to. If you hold alt for ‘about this mac’ it changes to systeminfo. On the right side of the menu bar when you hold alt and click WiFi!p, Bluetooth or sound, you’ll see extra info. For it comes in handy to hold alt and “WiFi settings” changes to “network settings”

going to get a new macbook soon. since I haven't used a mac for couple of years, I certainly needed this refresher. thanks for that.

To go to the parent directory of the current folder, use Cmd+Up, and to open a directory or file, use Cmd+Down. Combine this with typing the first letters of a file/folder name to select it, and right/left to preview folder contents, and you can navigate a directory tree pretty quickly.

OMG. You make the perfect Videos for MacOS Beginners. Thats all we need.

As a mac user for more than 2 years now i did not know many tricks u just showed in this vid. Keep up the good work.😄

Here's another trick on the "Get Info" panels. In addition to these: - Cmd+I (open one panel per file) - Ctrl+Cmd+I (open a panel for the group of files) There's one more: - Cmd+Opt+I (*toggle* a panel that *updates dynamically* as you change the selection) This is the one I use most often.

Man, you are a life saver. I have been using mac for a year and half, yet I did not know most of them THX!

2:05 you can access this using a gesture too, mission control is a four finger swipe up, this view you showed is a four finger swipe down, just like ctrl up and down

"Single Info Menu" the most importing thing I wanted ever to know! Subscribed!!!

3:00 you can use up and down arrow in list view to preview things.

I’ve been using macs professionally for over 20 years and still learned a bunch of tips for this vid. Good job!

As someone who uses Sidecar every day, the Option+Brightness shortcut is SO HELPFUL!!!

Been using osx for more than 10 years and I still learned new things here. That remove background part - goddamn!

@3:11 you can use the up and down key to see the images in preview mode if the Finder is in list mode. You can hover your cursor over the green expand button on the top left of any finder / safari window and it will give you an option for split screen view. Very very handy on a larger screen to do multiple tasks.

Thanks for the tips, many of these I never knew.

I liked the video for the tips. I subscribed for the humour. Love the content!

Thanks for the tips brother, I really liked the video

Love how they call a File browsing tool the 'FInder'. Apple is really creative with naming. Just like the 'dynamic island'.

some of the trick i know but i loved this video 🥰 very creative presentation buddy

your tips are nice, thank you !

This is a nice video! Helpful!

That hard press trick is cool, I never knew about it

3:09 in list view you can just press arrow up and down to toggle between items in quick view.

COOL VIDEO! THESE LITTLE LEARNINGS IS A I ABSOLUTELY NEED AS A WINDOWS POWER USER TRANSITIONING INTO MAC OS! THANKS! GOTTA KEEP MY MUSCLE MEMORY RENEWED LOL!

Thanks for the tips, bro!

You're funny! Grazie for all tips I love them

Been using Mac for 17 years, I actually learned a couple of tricks I didn't know about! Thanks :)

This was super helpful!!

In the finder, command click on the folder title next to the prev/next, and it will show a dropdown menu to navigate to any of the ancestor folders. This also works in most apple documentbased applications.

Most useful video I’ve seen for a while 🎉

Very useful tips. thxx❤

Excellent tips, good job

that remove background trick... dawg ur a real one. i've been using macOS since 2021 and i've never knew any of these things

00:20 another tip: you can also hard press on the closed apps, it will show all recent files from this app

I've been a macOS X user for years, but before that I was a mac classic user for OS 6, 7 and 8; I learned a couple of things. well done!

Great video thanks !

for the preview in the list view in finder, you can just select one and press space and then use the up and down arrow key to go through all of them

I've used MacOS for 25 years. And I learned (and rediscovered) some nice stuff from this. Control+Down arrow - can't believe I didn't know that. Thanks a lot Bog.

Thinking of getting the M2 MB Air and this is definitely helpful since I will be switching from a Windows laptop.

This is amazing! Thank you so much for the tips! And nice laptop skin, I have the same one ☝

3:00 it works for up and down arrows if it's a list view

I’ve been a Mac user all my adult life and did not know some of these commands so thanks very much for this video.

in settings , gestures u can enable that you tap the trackpad and it responds instead of hard tapping

You learned a lot in one year!

great stuff!!! learned a thing or two that's for sure 😅

Mate you gave me another step in joining the MacOs (and Apple ecosystem) army. Thank you! the video is really cool

0:58 this was eye-opening for me. I've been an avid Mac-user for 10 years and I didn't know. I've even used this feature accidentally with Mission Control but didn't get behind this. This way you can also open the settings of keyboard and sound with the respective keys. By the way also try clicking items in the menu bar while holding option/alt. For some it shows more information/options.

Thanks for the tips

Great video, learned a bunch of new shortcuts, thanks! Also what is that skin on the lid of your Macbook please?

Omg. Saw the laptop protector and was like. Ali. Then saw the Be My Friend in the description ahah

So helpful. Thanks.

I came across your video by chance and after watching it, I was reminded why I never really enjoyed using Mac OS - it's just too complicated for my liking. I appreciate your honest review and the tips you shared, but I also had a similar experience with the mouse vs. trackpad use. It can be frustrating to have to switch back and forth between the two and I wish there was a more seamless experience.

These are some pretty good tips for just about any desktop OS. Many of these features are found on Windows and on Linux Mint respectively. (Tho different shortcuts ofc)

been using a mac for over 4+ years and I didn't know the first 2 tricks. tysm

It’s impressive how MacOS is both a very intuitive, easy to learn OS, and so full of advanced shortcuts to do complex stuff.

This is the first Video with REAL Tips and Tricks. Thanks!

Dude, this is the best and most useful MacOS video I have ever seen. I’m using macOS since 2015, and literally just new a single one. Bless you

0:37 BTW, there’s no need to hard press, when a window from the app is in focus you can swipe down with three fingers on the trackpad and all the windows from that app will appear.

Earned yourself a sub. This is what I expect normally from a tips and tricks video. But they mostly end up being useless. This was actually quite useful.

Great video. I feel that its a bit stupid from Apple that they don't allow you to do right click properties on a selection of files to see all the size at once and instead have to use a shortcut.

I really like this video and there are some interesting tips here

i've only used MacOS and didn't know many of these things, thank you!

Still learning new things about MacOS everyday. I just gotta never gonna give up. ❤

When I used to use the Mac OS 9 they had that small tab up top next to the clock in the taskbar (I used to call that the finder). You could have seen what windows were open by clicking that tab

I've been using MacOS for work for 2 years. The large amount of shortcuts is nice but you can redefine most of them to your liking. I thought would talk about the Keychain and other helpful stuff

Awesome Tipps!!!!

best video ever .. thank you so much

Note that command shift 5 has much more precise screenshot controls, and also allows you to do screen recording

all of this seems really intuitive

You actually can go between images and quick look in the folder if you youbuse down and up keys. Which is logical where files are stacked vertically

Learned new shortcuts from your video even though using Mac for 10+ years

At 5:20 you could also just drag the disk to the bin. It automatically ejects the disk.

I’ve been using Mac OS since it was still named after Cats. I didn’t know most of the things in this list. Thank You

Now my Dell XPS 13 has got me used to modern hardware stuff like premium build materials, usb-c everything, great screen and backlit keyboard, I'd be interested in going back to a macbook again.

Wow, awesome video!

nice information. i cant remember all these keys.ill remember few keys but after few days when i dont use mac ill forget that too🤣

@4:25 you might not be able to hold shift and select all those images until they're in list view. However, when they are in thumbnail view (or whatever mode they're in right now), you can hold shift while drawing multiple boxes over several items and it'll stay selected

The delete key is the best for me I hate when I’m coding of my friends Mac and I can’t just delete backwards. Thanks for the info

Learned new things from your video thanks ! By the way, may i know where do you get macbook skin at the beginning of the video ? It looks really cool

As someone without friends, thanks for the pages tip!

Very helpful 👍

I've been using Mac OS for about a decade, and I did not know about 90% of these features 😆

5:40 “if you don’t have any friends” dunno why i found that so funny but gave you a sub for that😂

For the screenshotting, hold CTRL while taking the screenshot so it automatically gets saved to the clipboard
