I'm a social media manager so I use a LOT of different apps every day. The split screen tip, for me, is the highlight of this video. This is going to help me tremendously! Thanks so much. (also the emoji access shortcut for captions, etc)

Great! I like Shift CMD 5 for screenshots you can either hit capture on a specific area or just enter if it's the screen shot you want, and videos as well. It has more options and is quite useful.

Your channel not only had me subscribe… but also inspired me to unsubscribe from the endless others where you’re lucky to get a truly *useful* tip but just maybe once a year & 80% of tips are well known recycled nonsense. So, thank you for maintaining a wide birth from the hyperbolic. You’re crushing it. ❤

I'm new to the Apple ecosystem, and I need to write down a bunch of these tips. I loved the opening up and closing of pictures by pressing down the space bar. I also like how to close out an app pressing the cmd + Q key. Thanks for the presentation. I was wondering how to save live video in case i want to play games and edit them later.

I too sat down with pen and paper to note down the shortcuts. I find it a little difficult to use split screen as everytime I click on the other side to open the next video the previous window opens up full screen.

for me: 1. for the emojis part, I like to make a little change in the settings so whenever I press FN it gives me the emoji keyboard 2. I like to do Shift CMD 5, it gives you both options 3 and 4, and if you want it to be picture or video with which mic, etc 3. Actually the lookup feature is true with 3 fingers (as you said) and not with 1 finger as you write 4. Since you talked about split screen, I think checking out the application named Magnet in the app store would be something you would like! I didn't know there was an actual split in mac so I tried to see if there were any other options and I came by this application it gives you so many options Here's some extra tip you can change the formatting of a photo let's say from PNG to JPEG just by renaming that file into the formatting you want! not only limited to photos for sure but I can for example switch from PPTX to pdf just by renaming that file :) I really loved the video! it is amazing and the space feature with the preview will definitely come in handy! thank you so much, Michael have a blessed day

Hi Michael, Split screen was my favorite new tip. I have a question. My iMac is two years old. When it was new I could hold down vowel keys and accents in other languages would appear above the letter, so I was able to select that letter with an accent. Recently I had some help from Apple support and they made some changes to my computer, after which the accent feature disappeared and now if I hold down a vowel key, the letter just keeps repeating instead of offering me accent options. I have called Apple twice and they can't restore the accent feature. However, here are some instruction, which unfortunately, I cannot understand. Is this something you can explain to us. I may not be the only one missing the accents option. Thanks very much.

I was so happy with this video. The tricks were great! Few tips to make it perfect. 1. Define your terms. Several words, such as force press and EMOS, or how to get that launch pad icon was missing. 2. Keep your presentation 100% non-political. You give one example in here that shows some Apple stuff that is political. I suggest keeping your presentations pure as that is not needed. Otherwise fabulous job. I like the pacing, the voice, the topics.

1、按住空格键直接预览文件(太有用了) 2、command+Q:彻底关闭应用 3、command+control+空格(按次序按):打开表情键盘 4、command+shift+4+空格:完整区域截图 5、出厂设定已开启,不用管 6、触控板长按是查询功能 7、手表设密码后可以和Mac同步,只要戴着手表就不用输密码打开电脑(貌似没什么卵用) 8、一屏两用:长按绿色键就行 9、像抓东西一样抓触控板,可以直接进入启动台 10、工作台的功能可以拖出来放在旁边
