Appreciate your video, great work. It’s just that.. come on you know Clean My Mac is freaking crap. I know you guys need to make some money from the work you put into this videos but „recommending“ this BS somehow counteracts with the knowledge you have and spread. (no hate, don’t want to be rude)

Hi, I am looking for a solution on how to sort files by Photos Capture Time instead of Created (it's the time when I exported). I can find this time at file info, but can't sort by it. Thanks.
My absolute favorite tip that I would like to add is to create a "Screenshot" folder, and route all screenshots to go there rather than create desktop clutter.

I definitively learn a couple of new tricks: - A better finder organization - Control keys combined with hot corners - Dock preferences removing the genie effect and minimize in application - Greater spotlight control even if I use Alfred - Flux with I use on Windows but didn't know it could be a good option on Mac too - Reminding me to use Widgets on desktop :D - And many more... Thanks!
I’m only 3 minutes in and impressed how straightforward and simple this video is! I’ve had Mac for years and learning some new tricks and tips! Thank you!
A few more suggestions: - Under Finder Preferences enable the setting to keep folders on top vs mixed with file names. (Optional for desktop) - Under Control Center enable the battery option for control center and hide it for the task bar to remove an icon. Still show up in control center. - In the same area customize Date and Time to remove AM/PM and day of week to save more space on menu bar
After being a windows user for past 8 to 10 years especially because of gaming and stuff, buying M3 MacBook pro tomorrow for college, got to watch the video, it was amazing.
Thank you so much for showing how to change the drag options! I haven't had a Mac in almost a decade but I distinctly remember having that function and didn't know if there was a setting buried somewhere on my new M2 MBA. thanks again so much mate
One of the few videos on the topic that is actually immensely helpful. I didn't know about the "Recents" folder fix or the mouse adjustments. Everything works much more seamlessly now. Thank you so much!
This was a wildly informational video, I had to stop a couple times for each of the features to make sure that I adjusted and added them. Super valuable thanks😊
I’m 2:31 in, so far I’ve shared the video, liked and just appreciate everything you’ve said without a super long intro. This is perfect, many thanks! 🙌🏼
I watch these type of videos sometimes. But unlike most of the others, I actually picked up a few useful tips and applied to my system. Will be checking out other videos from this channels.
Great video. I am sitting here with my new MacPro and following along. I must confess I had to replay many sections in order to execute the feature. Thank you.
Sergio you know what you are talking about! After a series of useless tips, finally someone taught me how to make the best out of my Macbook. Thank you!
I loved how you explained the features of Finder app. Now I also use list view, I did not know there was an option to view folders and documents in list format. Thanks a lot. love from India!
I've been using a Mac for 18 years and never thought to look at customising the Finder window to this level of detail before. I'd only ever customised the sidebar a little by removing a few things and adding common locations. Have adjusted Finder now, will be interesting to see if I feel any difference as a lot of the options were lost on me anyway.
I just wanted to let you know that your videos are absolutely marvelous! They've been such a huge help to me, and I really appreciate the effort and creativity you put into each one. Keep up the amazing work-it's making a real difference.
Thanks for the video. if you want more screen room make the dock automatically hide-show on the bottom or side, and the toolbar on the top in settings.
Best video on this subject ever. I never knew of the three finger drag method. Would like to add that-as I just happened to find out-you can use this setting to mark text, too! Quite logical if you come to think of it. That's quite an improvement when not connecting a mouse! So thank you for making this quality content!
I bought a Macbook Pro 2019 Model in 2019. I've been using clean my mac from then all the way until now. Its connected to my computer and external hard drive clean my mac can even delete all your double files in your hard drives. Moral of the story my Macbook is 5 years old and it runs just as good as the day I bought it. Also retina display at 4k is still as good as it gets with mac so Im also up to date
even as someone who has been using MacOS for 20 years these videos are good and remind me things I dont use and should or even learn new things good video
TL;DR I approve these Mac Settings (as if my opinion has any weight) I was agreeing with all the things until you were said to create your own recents folder; I raised my eyebrow because I use it so much. As soon as I followed your suggestions and suddenly I had a folder that was ACTUALLY more useable than I expected, I hit subscribe and like. Thank you! It isn't very often that I am surprised by the results of "Mac Settings That ACTUALLY Make A Difference". I sincerely mean this when I say it, great job on providing suggestions that are actually useful and that feel like a fresh perspective 👆🏼❤
I dont even have a Mac yet (will be buying one soon) but this is still one of the best videos i have seen on something like this hands down. Straight to point and every single thing is useful and makes sense. Big W video
Most Mac tricks and tips are very obvious. But this one is amazing! The Finder tweaks are very helpful and overall solid video! Thank you and subscribed!
Thank you for just giving the relevant information without all the extra stuff we don't need. You do a great job! I made all the changes and I will subscribe!!
Great video. I’ve been a Mac user since the 1990s and I was surprised that I learned a few things. The Smart Folders setup is great. I also appreciate how quickly, but thoroughly, you went over all of your helpful tips. Looking forward to watching more of your videos.
Trackpad tap to click and three finger drag are absolute musts. It gets on my nerves when I see someone NOT using this setup. I kinda like natural scrolling though. Great video, thanks.
Do you have a purple "Recents" folder within the Smart Folder? When I created mine, it showed up in there and it's basically an unclickable placeholder.
Hey @@ChristianBarresi, sorry for the late reply! I do indeed have a purple folder within the Smart Folder, and nothing happens when you click on it. But it's not getting in the way. One additional tip I can give you is to play around with the Grouping options within finder. In addition to sorting, you can group items by many different proporties like file type, app, etc. Many of these options will also kind of hide the purple folder from view. It's a simple workaround and a great under-utilized Finder feature!
I always preferred the column view. It's been a while since I've used a mac but I remember really liking that layout, especially for dragging and dropping files which is something that Mac still does way better than Windows
Man, full stop after double space bugged the heck out of me. I thought I'd enjoy it, but it kept getting in the way, so it got turned off. Good video though. I've been a Windows user for 30+ years, and a Mac user for just 1, but I've learned a lot, and I find I've done a lot of the things you're recommending.
CONFIRM. I have all these settings implemented many years ago and I confirm that all settings in this video are MUST HAVE change on your macos. Good job, thanks for this video! 😊
Amazing video. The way you flowed from one thing to the next and the Mac was setup so you could make the change in real time for the viewer to see had took have taken some time to get right. That was great. I see so many videos where the changes are already made. Here you see the before and after all in real time. Very nice job!
I have been using everything as Mac Book default setting, this video changes my interface completely. Thanks for your effort, this has been very useful and informative video.
Lots of great tweaks I didn't know about! Though I'll argue you on turning off natural scrolling - if you swiped down and the app scrolled down when you're on your phone, you probably would agree that's not natural!
Very nice video. I’ve been a Mac user for years now and I’ve watched plenty of video about Mac tips and customization but I still found useful stuff here like the recents folder personalization, finder tool bar, changing the default folder opened… Very good video ngl.
So sick of these videos where it’s stuff anyone who has used a Mac for a few months would know. THIS had new info for me as a long time user. Thank you!

cleanmymac is trash. Bought a license and when I updated the OS they locked me out of the software until I bought it again.
Hello! How do you create those cool video effects, especially when creating window perspectives in macos?
My absolute favorite tip that I would like to add is to create a "Screenshot" folder, and route all screenshots to go there rather than create desktop clutter.
You can already do this.
Press "cmd+shift+5" to bring up screenshot tool, then select "options", then select "choose location"
boom all done
Thank you for this this was actually helpful@@huntermacias2023
Mac users have so many unnecessary issues
@@riditnimdia13coming from a lifetime user of windows and using Mac for work, you don’t think windows has any unnecessary issues? Or annoying bugs? Different strokes bro
I recently bought a MacBook and I'm still learning to use it, can I ask you how to do the screenshot folder thing?
I liked the video in record time: 10 seconds in and he goes to the point. No long intros. Full of useful facts. 10/10

I owned a mac for over 10 years, but I’ve learned some new things here. Great tips, keep up the good work.
Same, also very concise presentation with the purpose becoming clear (pros/cons) i.e. smart corners, folder search

- Under Finder Preferences enable the setting to keep folders on top vs mixed with file names. (Optional for desktop)
- Under Control Center enable the battery option for control center and hide it for the task bar to remove an icon. Still show up in control center.
