The tip about relaunching finder when an external drive won’t eject is golden!
@quick-tutorialsАй бұрын
Hate how often I need to do that, but it's a great quick fix when you just want to unplug your drive and move on.

Expecting a Mac to work just like Windows is by far the biggest mistake I’ve seen new Mac users make over the years. It may sound like a little harsh advice on the surface, but if you really want it to be just like Windows….. use Windows. There’s at least one or two major reasons why you chose to switch to a Mac… and if you’re just not willing to embrace it, why put yourself through all that? Either embrace it with an open mind or maybe just go back to what you think you keep thinking you want 😊

I came over from a MS platform and didn’t know about the apps running in the background after closing them. That explains a lot. Thank you!
@quick-tutorialsАй бұрын
It's a very different logic compared to Windows. After years of using Macs my wife still doesn't understand why clicking the red button alone isn't enough, and I don't blame her. It's confusing.

Been a Mac user personally and professionally since the 1980s. Just bought a new used MacBook Pro M1 16 and while waiting for delivery, thought I'd try to learn something. Amazingly I found this helpful. Thanks.

I always try to learn more no matter how experienced I am. This video is obviously aimed at beginners, but I love to hear that it can be helpful to more experienced users as well.

1. Tip - the way the application is closed contradicts the “easy to use” claim. In Windows and various Linux distributions, clicking X closes immediately (it just works).
@quick-tutorials20 сағат бұрын
I agree, but how would you handle it when there's multiple windows open within the same application? Clicking X on any window still quits the app? Or clicking X on the last remaining window quits the app?

Thanks a lot. 🌷 Hey dear friends out there, I’m an 60+ young/old man but still Mac newbie😊 I like to start KZbin to share my travel experience. For one year I own a MacBook Pro Max M2, 64, 2TB and like to buy a Mac Mini M4 to work on desk. What do you recommend for my “new job”? I bought FCP but I’m complete swamped. 😮 Usually I can learn anything like an autodidact. But here… uffff If anybody has some good tips how I can start, I’m here, still in Germany until the end of this summer 2025. 😊 Have a happy year and Peace for everybody ❤

Good luck with your project! Making some easy beginner tutorials for FCP is on my list, but in the meantime, you can find lots of good tutorials on KZbin from other creators. Or if you have any specific questions about FCP, I'm happy to help.

I wouldn't necessarily categorize these things as "mistakes". It's more that MacOS is so foreign to Windows users and one needs to buy a guide or do infinite google searches to learn how to do even the most basic things.

no these are mistakes, that's fine becuases there 100s of videos explaining MacOS.

What is the best open to for the mac is it either keeping in sleep mode or shutting it down
@quick-tutorials16 күн бұрын
I keep mine in sleep mode 99% of the time. Unless you're having issues or running software updates, there's no reason to fully shut it down.

As somebody who recently switched from macOS to windows I just feel like windows is very weird and it’s hard to get used to like the cursor is really fast for some reason

In Windows settings you can change speed of your cursor (acceleration of it)

Your completely wrong on no AV. I would use an XDR or something similar silence or something free like wazah just because you’re on a Mac doesn’t mean that you can’t get viruses. This has been a contention for decades at this point Linux can get viruses so can macOS.

What's the difference between Red Dot and Yellow Dot?
@quick-tutorialsАй бұрын
Red closes the window. Yellow will “minimize” it into your dock where you can click it to bring it back up.
@bywthloАй бұрын
@quick-tutorials isnt it the same thing, you said that it doesn't fully close

Red will close the window, but it does not close the application.

The biggest mistake: Not having Time Machine backup.
@quick-tutorialsАй бұрын
There's two types of people - those who have backups, and those who regret not having them.
@darylcheshire161823 күн бұрын
I have Time Machine backing to the NAS box, does Time Machine back up everything? Preumably if you buy a new mac, Time Machine can be restored to it.
@quick-tutorials23 күн бұрын
@@darylcheshire1618 Correct, Time Machine backs up everything except termporary files and your Trash. It doesn't back up external drives automatically, but you can choose to include those in the backup if you'd like. I've done a couple of complete system restores from Time Machine backups when setting up a new Mac, and it's super easy and convenient.
