Mac os X ios
So let's begin with macOS tutorial. This is the default screen of macOS which is known as desktop and on the top we get a horizontal bar which is known as menu bar. At the bottom of the desktop we can find dock on which App shortcuts are present. So first let's check the features of the menu bar. So first we have Apple logo in which the first option is About this Mac from About this Mac we can check the system's hardware configuration and find the macOS version as you can see here. Below About this Mac we can find System Preferences. System Preferences is basically a control panel from where we can modify the software and hardware settings. Further in this video we will check the System Preferences in detail. After this we can find Appstore by clicking on which opens Appstore. Below it we have Recent Items which shows the recently opened items. After this we have Force Quit. By using Force Quit we can check which apps are open and if an app hangs we can forcefully quit it from here. Below Force Quit we can find Sleep
Restart
Shutdown
Lockscreen
Log Out Options.
Besides the Apple logo we can find ......... Finder
Finder is macOS's default file manager which can be used to browse the macOS. We will discuss about Finder in detail later.
After Finder the next important option is GO. By using GO we can directly go to any location. like we can to Downloads similarly we can click on GO and go to applications where we can find all the installed apps.
Now let's check the icons on the right hand side of the menu bar. Over here you can find WiFi icon from where you can connect or disconnect the WiFi network. After this we have Battery icon by clicking on which you can show or hide the battery percentage.
After Battery icon we have Date and Time which can be set to Digital or Analog. After this you can find the Logged In User's name besides which we have Spotlight Search. which is macOS's lightning fast search engine from where you can search anything within this macOS. Finally we can find the Notifcation Bar from where you can check the notifcations. So these were the default menu bar details
but if you see closely there are some icons missing. like Volume and Bluetooth icons So in order to bring these icons to the menu bar we will go to System Preferences and click on Sound.
And here on the bottom we will click on show volume in menu bar due to which we can find the Volume icon on the menu bar Similarly we can go to Bluetooth and tick on show Bluetooth in menu bar due to which now we find the Bluetooth icon on the menu bar. And in order to rearrange or remove these icons
you need to press and hold the command button on your keyboard and by dragging left or right with the pointer you can rearrange these icons or by dragging the icons down you can remove them as well as you can see in the video.
Now let's check the Dock on the dock we can find the shortcuts for the installed applications and at the very end we have Trash Bin. The actual location of all the shortcuts is the Application folder here you can see that the Safari app is installed and if you remove it from the dock it will not be deleted from the Applications folder because there are only shortcuts on the dock and we can drag Safari back to dock For dock settings we will go to system preferences and select dock. Here we can set the dock size which you can see in real time and by turning on magnification the dock icons will magnify when we scroll the pointer through them. And the magnification size can be set manually and from here we can set the dock's positioning to the left or bottom or to the right. And by ticking on this option we can auto hide the dock as well and the shortcuts which you don't want on the dock that can be removed by clicking on secondary and then selecting the Remove from Dock option or you can directly remove them by drag and drop.
Let's remove some shortcuts from here Now we will check important system preferences settings Firstly we have General In Appearance we can set between light and dark theme and by using this option we can auto hide the menu bar After this we have desktop and screen saver settings from where you can set the desktop wallpaper and screen saver After this we have dock settings which we have already checked in detail.
After this in important settings, we can find Internet Accounts Here accounts such as iCloud, Google, Yahoo and other accounts can be added which will get synchronized by the macOS's mail app Users & Groups From here we can add and delete user accounts and also change the related settings and by using Bluetooth settings, Bluetooth can be turned On or Off and also pair Bluetooth devices.
In Sound settings, you can see the output and input devices and also modify the related settings. And most importantly let's check the Trackpad settings In trackpad by default, the secondary click is by two fingers but we will set it to bottom right click just like Windows laptop and on the right, you can also watch the preview video And below this, we will also enable tap to click. Here we can also set the trackpad's tracking speed From the Scroll & Zoom tab, we can set the scroll direction and check the zoom in and zoom out gestures with video preview on right.
Similarly, you can also see the smart zoom and rotate gestures. In More Gestures, you can see swipe between pages, swipe between Fullscreen apps, Notification Center, Launchpad, etc all these trackpad gestures can be learned. Apple's trackpad is one of the best trackpads which makes the overall user experience better. In Display, you can change the display resolution and brightness and other display-related changes can be done. In Energy-saving settings, if you have a dual graphics MacBook you can turn On or Off the Automatic graphics switching and energy saver related settings for the battery and power adapter can be set separately. Lastly from the Date and Time, you can set the date and time-related settings. Now let's check the macOS's Finder which is macOS's default file manager Firstly we will go to Finder Preferences and tick on Hard-disk due to which we will get the built-in hard-disks icon on the desktop. We can click on finder icon on the dock to open the Finder window or double click on the hard disk icon to open the Finder window On the left-hand side of the Finder window, we can find sidebar in which we can find the Favourites and Tags option. On the Finder window's top left corner three colored circles from which using the Green colored circle we can make the window full-screened and in order to exit the full screen we need to click the Green circle again. Using the Yellow circle minimizes the window which goes to the dock from where we can bring it back and by using the Red circle we can close the window but most of the applications don't close by the Red circle. Let's check an example we will open Safari app you can see that in the menu bar Safari's menu is merged and even after clicking the Red circle Safari app is still open in the background as you can see in the menu bar. To quit this, we can go to Safari and select the Quit Safari option which will completely close the Safari app. So this is how you can close the application.
We can resize the Finder window from any corner easily as you can see We can easily browse any files from the Finder window on the left, we can find a sidebar where under Favourites Airdrop, Recents, Desktop, etc their location shortcuts can be found. You can also easily customize these by going into Finder preferences We need to select sidebar and from here you can add or remove shortcuts from the favorites as you can see in the video. By double-clicking on the harddisk we can directly come to the hard disks root location where we can find four folders At the very first, we have Applications folder in which all our installed applications are present. Second folder is Library in which macOS related important files are present. Third folder is System in which again macOS related important folders are present. And at last we can find the users folder in which we have the actual user's, home folders and under home folders there are actual predefinded folders like desktop, documents, downloads, etc In fact, all the shortcuts on the sidebar are from these locations Now we will learn how to create a new folder and how to rename, cut, copy and paste. In order to create a new folder you need to click secondary and select new folder you can rename it on the spot or do secondary click and select the rename option as you can see in the video. We will rename it as Demo We can drag and drop this folder to rearrange it or you can do a secondary click and select the sort by name option to rearrange it alphabetically. In order to delete this folder you can secondary and select the move to bin option to delete it which will dump it in the trash bin. From the trash bin you can permanently empty it or you can do the secondary click and select the put back option to recover it as well. which will put it back to it's original location from where it was deleted. In order to copy and paste you need to select the copy option from the secondary click then go to the desired location and from the secondary option click on paste item which will paste it. So this was a very easy step but in macOS, to cut, paste or move is a bit different
if you notice, you will see that after secondary click you won't find the cut option anywhere but don't worry it's a bit of a tricky step you need to select the copy option and then go to the location you want to move it to and do the secondary click and simultaneously you need to press the option button on the keyboard due to which we can find the move option which will move the copied item here.
