Mac Tutorial for Beginners / Windows Users

Thanks!

Good style. Nice and steady. Clear as well. Thanks !

Thank you for your effort

Thank you for creating such an insightful and detailed guide for macOS! As someone transitioning from Windows, this video has been a game-changer. Your clear explanations and step-by-step approach made everything so much easier to grasp. Keep up the amazing work—you're helping so many of us become more confident in navigating new tech!

Thanks! Found this while looking for a good video to help teach someone how to use macOS.

So much better than others!

I'm using an app called Desktop Organizer, which allows me to organize my desktop files into different zones.

thank you it was a great tutorial.

Thanks! This was a great starter. I wonder what the difference is between the red and yellow button on the top left, if they both minimize/close the window but don't close the app. I'm curious what any difference would be between using one or the other.

thank you, that was great! lol and apparently enter does not submit the comment in google

VERY VERY helpful

This was invaluable. Anson, you're a fabulous trainer and you sure know your Apple stuff! I just finally broke free of Windows and bought myself an Apple today. Always wanted one so now I'm in learning mode. Your tutorial was one of the best I have ever watched as far as a smooth learning experience. Your voice, your way of instructing is fun and easy to understand. Thank you!

My macOS is Sonoma 14.5. Are there any changes to look out for?

Make Darker windows better

Thanks for the video, very helpful!

I am having troube with accent marks (portuguese) besides that it`s going well. It takes some time to get used to the inverted scrolling direction(on windows it`s different. But I love it so far.

Thanks. Do wonder why you use personal data scrapper google products?

I have Microsoft and Google Chrome in my Macos laptop and find it very confusing.

Great presentation, especially the Finder explanation. The natural scrolling tip really helped, as I thought my Windows mouse wouldn't work on my new MacBook.

Thank you so much for this! I just got my new Macbook Air today and, after watching your video, am ready to get started. I know after 28 years as an exclusive Windows user there will be a learning curve but I much less apprehensive about it.

I was given an older MAC and don't know original sign in/password. How can I update to my own sign in and password?

As a PC user since DOS days, I just never feel that IOS is in any way better than Windows. The one button mouse, even the newer Magic Mouse 2 with its touch sensitive top, is a poor substitute for my Logitech G502 gaming mouse. It's absolutely RETARDED that Mac mice are one button. Having to use shift, alt, ctrl, or command in conjunction with a mouse click is DUMB. I can do a lot more and faster with a right click and a scroll wheel, to say nothing of the additional mouse button functions a gaming mouse offers, than I ever can with the Magic Mouse. As for web browsers, because I'm an INTELLIGENT man, I use only Firefox and you should too. Google Chrome is garbage. I find that quite often what I find on the right side of a window on a PC is found on the left side on a Mac. That's kind of annoying. I DO like the 5K Retina 27" display. I find file management to be easier in Windows Explorer than on IOS. I can handle a Mac but after all these years using both PCs and Macs it has never become as quick and easy to use a Mac as it is a PC for me. And it may never be.

This tutorial is way over the head of casual PC user. All I want to do is learn the basics, like how to center the text on a word document. Way too esoteric and dismissive for those with limited skills. It was useless to me. I'm a beginner. You need to talk like your talking to a beginner.

This video was a GREAT INTRO to using a Mac OS from a Windows OS vantage point. It helps contemplating the conversion to Mac OS as maybe not such scary thought.
I've been using Windows since Windows was literally first invented. I've also done programming in Windows and in DOS - when I was much younger. However, I'm thinking about changing to Mac OS since I need to get a new computer system & printers for my business. Although Windows has some things that really suck, so does Mac. And I'm really good with a Windows OS and doing things many different ways. As a life-long Windows & Android user, this is like visiting a foreign country & trying to speak a very different language and drive on "the wrong side of the road"! But hey, people can change! And people can learn a different culture & a different language - so maybe this crusty old man can too. Only time will tell what I decide to do but this video was a GREAT INTRO to using a Mac OS. Thank you for a great video intro! Keep doing great videos to help us poor, confused Windows OS users who might just convert to the Dark Side.

I decided to upgrade to Ventura based on this video. Thanks :-)

what about FaceTime

🙏👍

Would you like to elaborate why you don’t like using the apple mail app?

Thank you❤❤❤❤

I just bought a Macbook pro and was worried that the transition from Windows to Mac will be frustrating and difficult. But since i follow your step by step tutorial, the switch has been quite easy. I am still figuring out the Macbook, but I am now more confident with my new laptop. Thank you for making these videos.

Thank you this was so helpful. Windows user of many years and new to mac. Have taken notes and will enjoy exploring 😊
