So Good!!! I appreciate that you don't talk so darned fast as the other tutorials I have tried to watch; it takes a minute to absorb the information! You do a great job of being clear and quite thorough in presenting the material in a easy to understand way . This video is a lifesaver for me!
nach über 20 jahren auf Windows habe ich mir nun ein Macbook gekauft . deshalb bin ich für dieses ausführliche, bestens erklärte video mehr als dankbar . fantastisch ! vielen herzlichen dank !
coming from 25 years of Windows usage, bought an M3 Air after hearing good things, and trying to learn this sort of alien OS while pulling out the hairs that are left, this video is the best one I will save this for repeat viewing
New Subscriber Here - also a new RUclipsr just over a year. Thank you sooo much. I've been working with Windows all of my life and just started working on my MacBook. OMG originally felt like I was in a maze and couldn't get out, Everytime I would do a what would I do in Windows, wrong and then got frustrated. I came across your video and it was a great intro to the mac world. Thank you it is so appreciated.
Anson, thanks very much. Super helpful for someone like me moving from windows to mac! Keep up the good work!
Thank you for this basics tutorial. I've been on Windows ever since Windows 95 and my first 386, but my new job is on Mac, so now I gotta start all over again at the age of 68. Your tutorial has helped a lot.
You're welcome, I'm glad it helped and good luck with the new job!
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.
Love the vid! being a newbie to the apple eco-system making the transition from windows to Mac, this vid was very informative and helpful. Can't wait to see your other tutorial videos to watch and learn. Thanks for sharing!
I found this tutorial for beginners absolutely fantastic. I appreciate how the tutorial compared the process with Windows, making it easier for me to understand. I have been a Windows user for over 20 years and just recently bought a MacBook. This video was like a light in a dark room for me. I am very grateful for the help. Thank you so much.
Absolutely fantastic. Very nice introduction for beginners. I can notice it was very well prepared. Thank you a lot!🥰
Great tutorial!.. I’ve been a Mac owner and user for a while, I learned quite a bit today from your excellent and through instruction! Now I’ll set up my new Mac so that it’s customized and efficient for me!. Looking forward to the next episode
That's awesome to hear that even experienced Mac learners can learn from this tutorial. I hope the new setup is going well and, don't worry, I have plenty more Mac content coming up!
As a long time Windows user this was just what I was looking for, as I've just purchased my first Mac!
Great work. I love how you explain things. This has been very helpful. I’m now more confident with the shift from windows to Mac. Continue with the Good work. 👊🏽
Thanks! I'm glad it was helpful and that my teaching style worked for you!
Thank you so much for this video. Yours is so much better than all the other ones - you actually cover lots of tiny details like unmounting the dmg drives after installation and fixing the inverted scroll wheel. Plus you have chapters and everything is laid out logically.
As a programmer who just got forced onto mac today because of a job, I appreciate this more than you know.
You're very welcome. I'm glad to hear it. Those are some of the nuances that I felt most people would want to know about so happy to hear it's helping out. Good luck with the new job!
Thank you. I’m a academic and have been using both . I purchased the MacBook Pro M2 and I’m digging in with my Apple products and educate myself on the proper way to use it . God bless you and thank you for your service.❤
Just got my new iMac with the M3 SOC, glad I found your channel. I wanted it in Starlight color, but wasn't available, so I opted for the Teal Green. I will return here as I continue to transition to the Mac Universe. Be blessed in Him. Post Tenebras Lux.
Bought my first Mac; this was awesome... exactly what I needed to get started 🙏
I'm a PC user trying to help a friend with her Mac. Your video has been very helpful by comparing how things are done in Windows as compared to IOS. Thank you so much!
I happened to see your tutorial on the MAC OS today. Excellent! Thank you.
I was a previous MAC user, but not the most current OS. Thanks so much for you had work creating this tutorial. Much appreciated!
You're welcome! I'm glad you were able to find it and that it was helpful!
This is an awesome tutorial of the basics. Last time I used a Mac was during my Postgraduate studies in 1987 and wanted to get back on the wagon of trying it out on a VM. Your clip is a great assistance tool on this journey. Thank you!
I'm glad to hear it was helpful, thanks for letting me know. Welcome back to Mac and hope you enjoy!
Thank you so much.. I will be a new Mac OS user on Friday, so great to know how to navigate/Customize!
Thank you so much. I’ve been using windows for the last 30 years. I just purchased a Mac and I’m ready to learn it as quickly as possible . Thank you so much sir!
Thank you Anson!! I really appreciated this video. Just bought my first MacBook and you helped me out a LOT.
That's great to hear, I'm glad it helped!
thank you so much this was so instructive, clear and nicely explain !❤
Excellent presentation and I have using Mac for 10+ years and learned things I didn’t know about from your videos for beginners
I will share this
Thank you! Very helpful. Just purchased and setup a Mac Mini M2. Now I can learn how to use.
Your tutorial was EXTREMELY helpful as I transition to a Mac after 20 years using Windows. You answered practically every question I had, including how to change the scrolling direction on the mouse! Thank you!
You're very welcome! I'm glad the scroll wheel tip helped - I don't know why Apple still keeps it like that by default...
(I'm still watching) Wait what - I can change that! That's amazing.
@@AnsonAlexander Because it base on the screen scrolling of a touch screen device like a phone. I dont liked it at first but my brain have make the switch and it more natural when you think because the trackpad work the same.
Alex thank you so much. I’ve been a long time windows user and recently decided to jump head first into the Apple ecosystem. I already have an iphone, watch and ipad which I love and it was only a matter of time to purchase a MacBook. Your video was a great introduction into the MacBook Air Vibe. Great detail, I used my ipad and practiced on the Mac. RUclips was a useful tool that alowed me to start, stop and refresh a day later if i forgot something. I feel i’m now off to a good start. Thanks
Thanks for the tip to head here as well - I'm still learning on my new work Mac but am feeling much more confident.
That's great to hear, there is a lot to learn but once you get to a certain point you can do a lot of self learning by checking out all of the different options, settings and apps available.
Love the update for Ventura. I watched your previous tutorial video and loved it!
I'm so glad, it was time for an update!
Thank you this was so helpful. Windows user of many years and new to mac. Have taken notes and will enjoy exploring 😊
Just got a Mac mini this was very helpful. Thanks for taken the time to make something like this. Coming from windows so I was kinda lost.
You're welcome, I'm glad it was helpful!
Really great presentation, thank you! I am a long time windows user and I've also used Linux for over 10 years.
I don't think we need to say one is better, it's fun using all three
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.
As a long time windows user but new to mac, this was spot on. Very helpful, thank you!
Absolutely Fantastic... Saved my time.... Thank you very much!!!!
So glad I came across your channel. I have been a Windows user for years and I finally decided to add a Mac to my Apple Ecosystem(my Apple Ecosystem is finally complete 😁)
I was trying to use my Mac as a windows computer 🤦🏾♀️
Your video is very detailed! Thanks so much 😊
You're very welcome! I'm glad you found it so helpful! I like that it sounds like you're seeing them as both unique instead of just one better than or worse than the other.
Thanks a lot for making this video. You have explain everything to start with MacOs in crisp. Your efforts are very much appreciated. I am benefiting a lot after going through your video.
Thank you so much! My boss just bought me a MacBook and I am shocked at how much I'm struggling despite using all the other Apple products for years. I just queued up a ton of your other tutorials, too.
You're welcome! I'm glad to hear you found it helpful! At least now you can add another skill to your toolbox!
Thank you so much for this great video, Anson! It was very useful!
I am an old man, I have Apple II plus when I was a kid. Then I use PC for 30s years.
Tonight I will go Apple Store to get refurbished M1pro, my first Mac in my life.
Thanks you your content helps me a lot.🎉
That's awesome you hear and you're welcome. Good luck continuing the Mac journey!
Excellent video. Nicely organized and presented.
This is a masterpiece, amazing job my friend. Much gratitude towards you. Keep up the good work. Thank you greatly for this great tutorial.
Thanks a lot, really appreciate it! I'm glad you found it helpful!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. Extremely helpful!
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.
This tutorial was just so helpfull! Thank you for your time and for doing this video!
You're welcome, I'm glad it helped!
Just switched to all Apple products after decades of Windows. Whoa like learning a new language. This was very helpful especially the Finder section and some of the settings. I did like Windows file system and now can customize Mac to operate similarly. Also a few of the settings I couldn't find like the mouse wheel (UGH!) that was annoying. Great job on the video.
THanks Judith! I'm glad you found it helpful. Good luck on switching over - can't hurt to be able to drive both Mac and Windows!
Great video! I found this tutorial very useful, I was a PC user pre-windows OS.
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I used a macbook for the first time this week and i definitely feel more comfortable after watching your video!
You're welcome, I'm glad you found it helpful!
Thanks a ton. I bought my first Mac last week and its a leaner curve. With the tips, it'll be easier for me.
That's great to hear. I hope you're enjoying the new Mac!
Thank you so much. Very high quality: concise, clear, demonstrative, passionate. NOTE: I am new to Mac and the laptop I bought is running Big Sur, but I fount your tutorial incredibly helpful all the same.
That's great to hear, I'm glad it was helpful!
Just do what you need to do thanks
Excellent Video for those newly moved from Windows to Mac.
Thanks.👍
You're welcome, I'm glad it helped!
I just got a macbook today first time ever using a Mac product I have used the iPhone a lot thank you for making this enjoyable and digestible and not me having to have APHD and 17 doctors in technology to understand you thank you very much
Haha, you're welcome, I'm glad it helped out!
Thanks for the "refresher". I've not used Apple much since the IIc and I think IIgs. I do have an iBook G4 (PowerPC) that was given to be compile plugins in xCode for some Mac using friends so they could use some plugins I wrote for Linux and Windows versions of TeamSpeak. So, I used PuTTY and FileZilla when using that system way more than the UI. But I've ordered the new MBA 15".
Around the 36-minute mark you discussed maximizing windows. The double-click in the title bar you mentioned for Mac has worked in Windows as well for decades. The drag to top feature you mentioned for Windows is a newer feature than the older double click method.
You're welcome! I'm glad it helped and thanks for the info on maximizing in Windows!
95% Windows user. I use the IOS on phone and tablet and love the exchange of data. Time for a Mac. So far, very happy. Love your tutorial!
Thank you very much for this'! I just ordered a MacBook Air m2 base model and im very excited to get started and leave windows behind me 🎉
Awesome to hear, good luck with the new Mac!
very simple explanation and helpful. thank you

Hi, I just watched this and 2019 version, they are both very helpful because I just started using MacBook and have been using Windows since like a billion years ago. Thanks for the right-to-the-point tutorials👍
36:36 lmao that's me

Very helpful tutorial. Thank you so much 😊
Just fantastic, greetings from The Netherlands!

i've been a windows user for over 20 years and just got my hands on the new MacBook air M2 , it's a whole new world , and more interesting as well , great video!
That's awesome, if anything, at least you'll know how to use both of the top operating systems in the world. Hope you enjoy and thanks for watching!
Thanks, I'm new to Mac and learned a lot.
Great to hear, you're welcome!
What an excellent tutorial you’ve made!
Thank you!
Very helpful tutorial. Thanks a lot!
You're welcome, glad to hear it!
Good Work Brother, I learnt a lot to work with my new Mac…👏👏
Thank you very much for this
You're welcome, I"m glad you found it helpful!
Thank you so much, It was very helpful
You're very welcome!
thanks brother! you made it a lot easier ❤
You're welcome, I'm glad it helped!
So helpful thank you, it makes so much more sense when you compare it to windows (for a windows user anyway)
You're welcome, I'm glad it was helpful! I was hoping that comparison would make it easier!
Thank you Anson.. it was helpful video
You're welcome, glad to hear!
For me I am glad I changed from Windows to Mac, this for sure.
Windows is a mess comparing with Apple. I bought a computer running on Windows, I installed Linux.
Do you recommend a macbook air M1 for a software engineering student?
@@user-bh4bn5dq1l I've been programming on my old laptop that costs 300 dollars and that was enough for most of the time. So yeah, M1 is good enough when you're a student. Then, when you'll get a job, you may think about better options but now it's completely okay.
Great video, it helped me a lot. Thanks!
Awesome, you're welcome!
Really useful video, thank you
You're welcome!
Really thanks for the effort that you have put. Really helped me. A big Thanks 🤩
You are too good!!! Thanks for the tutorial!!! you were really very good!
Great tutorial, thank you!
You're welcome!
great video. Thank yo!
Thank you ! this is so helpful. Coming back to mac after a long time on windows wasn't as easy as i thought it would be.
And for a moment i thought you were ricky gervais
You're welcome, good luck on the return to Mac!
Excellent step by step instructions. However, I would like to see you zoom in more on the examples you were giving.
Thanks for the video!
You're welcome!
Excellent Anson, just what I've been looking for. I'm a long time (many years) Windows person wanting to switch to Mac and your video gives me the confidence to jump. Now I need to figure how to convert my chrome bookmarks that I keep on my Windows desktop to be stored and used from a folder(s) in the Mac's Desktop folder. Any ideas? Is there a translator utility to do the job?
It was very useful. Thanks a lot and good luck.
Awesome, you're welcome, thanks!
Thank you very much Anson, you earned a sub and like from a macbook novice!
You're welcome, I'm glad it was helpful!
Thank you for the tutorial
You're very welcome, I'm glad it was helpful!
I like your tutorial is so easy understand
I’m Spanish speaking for my ears is so clear I watched this video as a class I’m keeping washing to learn from you how to speak clear like you
Sound crazy but is the truth
Thanks you so much.
great video, and helpful as a brand new mac user. uboxed my new macbook air today, always been on windows.
Thanks lot , very nice explanation .
Thank you great tutorial. I have been a chromebook all google user. Had to switch to a MacBook pro when I changed companies and there was a learning curve for sure. I was not sold on Apple. However l needed a new personal computer and something that could keep up with my business so I decided to get a MacBook pro for myself
... something I swore I would never do. But it is a much better laptop I just loaded the chrome browser and use sheet docs etc. So best if both world. Most helpful was hearing about the apple apps you use and how you use them. Thanks for an honest tutorial!
Thanks for your video
I am planning on switching from Microsoft to Apple. You are exceptional in your presentation as I am a pro at windows. Have not used an apple since the apple II Plus. Giving my age away a little. It took away any fears I had at moving to apple and I kind of like it.
