Hi Dan: My Macbook from 2011 began having problems but it could not be fixed so I bought the MacBook Air. I am 81 years old and was totally confused with the new technology but determined to do it myself. I watched so many videos but still was not confident I would be able to do it until I came across your videos! I watched them over and over until I was familiar enough to do it. I just want to say Thank You. Your step by step explanations are very clear. It is the trackpad that is the most confusing for me. I will watch your video for that but am convinced I need/want a mouse! ( There wasn't any port on the new MacBook for the Logitech mouse I have) Do you have any suggestions there? Please know, however, that I am feeling pretty good about myself now. Thank you, again!!
Thank you for this comment, it made my day. So glad my video helped. I believe the trackpad is the hardest to learn with all the features but clicking and basics are easy to learn over time. I use a mouse mostly anyway as I prefer it. As for your mouse, you will probably need an adaptor. Something like a USB C hub. If you search it on Amazon, they have a cable that fits into the usb c port (probably the only port you have) and then attached to the cable is regular USB ports for the mouse and maybe other ports depending on which you buy. If you need help feel free to leave a comment. Just make sure it’s a new comment as it’s near impossible for me to see replies on RUclips
Ann, I bought a "Pebble" mouse. Absolutely love it. Its light weight. Bluetooth connectivity. All I had to do was connect it once to BT and its been perfect ever since!

Lifelong PC user, just got my first Apple product, this Macbook Air a week ago. With the help of your videos I am managing the learning curve; Thank you so much!
I am elderly, but trying to keep up with the new technology. I am new to the MacBook Air, and have enjoyed and learned from your videos. You are excellent at what you do and I will continue to follow you on RUclips! Thank you!
This tutorial is for the MONTERREY version of the software. If you update to VENTURA the SYSTEM PREFERENCES he's talking about are now SYSTEM SETTINGS and look different (toolbar on the left instead of wide-open page of selections) but if you just take your time and scan the tool bar you'll find the items and click to open the setting options for that facet.
Well presented and gave me the confidence to move on from my 'ancient' but still working Mackbook Air to the one I bought (latest evolution) a few days ago. Thanks!
Awesome! thanks so much. I am a PC user since the mid 90's-yes I am that old, and I got a Macbook Air and arrogantly thought since I have been using Iphones and Ipads for more years then I can remember, it would be easy. Wrong. I was so frustrated thinking that I was going to have to spend hours trying to learn this thing, I first watched the glidepath video then this one. I feel much better now!
I just bought the Mac book air m2 and as I was watching your video your screens looked a lot different then mine, for example, in the upper right hand corner when you would click on the battery icon what my MacBook opened was completely different than yours, and there were settings you had that I did not have. I am also struggling to figure out how to download apps from the App Store. For example, when I go into the App Store and I search Amazon, it doesn’t bring up the actual Amazon app. I also am trying to figure out how to delete apps and if there is a way to sync what is on my iPad or iPhone to my MacBook Air. For someone who has always been an apple user I seem to really been struggling with how to set up and use this MacBook.
The App Store for mac is different so a lot of apps you are used to on say the iPad won’t be there. You have to go to Amazon in safari to access it. As for the settings apple changed the look to be more like iPad and iPhone so that’s why the settings look different now. As for syncing iPad to the Mac, it doesn’t really work other then iCloud stuff.
I’m not sure I’m understanding but if you mean previously viewed videos, if you use RUclips signed in, you can tap li early in the bottom right of the RUclips app and see your watch history.
Hi Dan, great vid. When setting up my computer I bypassed setting up email. Now I want to and I can't figure out how to start email on my new computer and bring older emails over.
Does Mac have a taskbar so I can view multiple minimized tabs/docs? As someone who works on multiple Word documents at the same time, its so convenient to minimize docs but still see them and jump around between Word docs, adobe docs, web browser, etc.
I loved your video and learned a lot. I am a senior and do better when instructions etc. are delivered in a slower manner. Is there a way to halt the instructions so that I can re-do them or just slow the whole thing down??!
Thanks glad the video was helpful! Slowing down isn’t possible but there is a pause button on the video player and you can drag the play marker back if you need to.
Hi, there. I am a little confused because I bought my MacBook Air M2 in December 2022 so I would've thought that your tutorial would be showing me pretty much what I have here. (Although I suppose there have been updates, haven't there…) It's just that so far the screens that you're showing me are very different from the ones I actually have, and I can't seem to make some of the choices that you are able to here. Is this simply due to updates or is there something else going on? Thank you, by the way. I am a lifelong (well, as long as there were personal computers to be had) PC user and my switch to the Mac has been both wonderful and puzzling. It's good to have some help.
Thanks for this nice video. I am a brand new user of MacBook Air M2. I am facing a problem with the default font size. Text label font seems smaller to me. How can I increase the default font size. Thanks once again.
Glad the video was helpful. You have options in the display settings to select different text sizes or you can go into the accessibility settings, click displays, scroll down, click text size and then increase the bar to where you like it.
Hey just got myself a MacBook Air I came from windows I wanted to know if you had a video of the apps that can not be downloaded on the laptop like for example I use RUclips quite a lot and I don't see it on the App Store what is a good app to get that is like RUclips?
I don’t really have a list of apps that are good for things like that. I go with what is in the App Store and just use chrome or Safari for everything else.
Hi Dan, I've been using my MacBook Air for a little over a year. Thank you for your helpful videos. I specifically was searching for an answer to a recent problem after an update. I used to be able to work with several open windows at once (similar to the my HP at work) so I could drag files between windows. Suddenly, I seem to be able to only have one open and viewable at a time, while the others are off to the side. Is there a way to keep 2 or more open on my screen at once? Overlapping, I guess is the best way to describe this. Thanks for your reply! Alice
Hello, thanks for the tips..how do we get the arrow keys and space bar to act normal like on the MacBook Pro? Is it a settings thing? I tried what is on google about going to keyboard-> shortcuts, but shortcuts is not a setting, its just on and off. So frustrating. I Need my arrows and space bar to go up and down left right and pause and unpause etc I may return this. thanks
I may be wrong but I believe it’s the apps that need to support that. If it’s a 3rd party app and they don’t have very good keyboard support that could be the issue but otherwise there isn’t much that I know of. Again I may be wrong as I barely use the keyboard the same way as I do with my max.
Please I rlly do need an answer, Ive been trying to do this for a while, whenever I have 2 windows open on chrome I cant switch between these windows. I use a macbook air and ive tried searching up a way to do it but the shortcuts given dont work. Please help and great video.
Hi Dan. Good video. I am getting a MacBook Air 2 in a few weeks. Have you done any videos using accessibility on the Mac? We are visually impaired and would be interested in voice over. Look forward to hearing from you. Thanks Derrick.
Hi Derrick, I haven't made any videos like that yet. I did attempt it but, I had some trouble filming with the settings enabled. If i can figure out a way to make it work I will try to upload something but I am just not sure how.
Great tutorial! I need to know how to air drop my photos from my older MacBook (2009) to the new M2 MacBook Air. Can you make a RUclips video on how to do that? Just want to air drop my photos, nothing else.
I have a new MacBoo Air and in your second beginners guide you show 2 finger press to change wall paper which you show comes up with the two finger press…on my MacBook, the only option is wall paper…how do I get to desktop…also Seri is not shown on bar across the top of your video. Thank you
So the software was updated since I made this video. I do need to make an update but once you have the right click option enabled I believe that’s all I did on the desktop to bring up the option. If it’s changed now that is due to the update in software.
@@DHTV your videos are a blessing many thanks to you. Is want to know how to access the list of all your videos…so I can access them… sort of confusing as I keep getting back to the first two…can you send me a link? Again, thank you. I am old (77) and sure determined to learn.🙂
So glad my videos are helping. I haven’t posted much on the MacBook in a while but here is the playlist link ruclips.net/p/PLAC8E7E05CDBC1FF1&si=y6KkTJyWND2qCwqY the first 2 videos are probably the only 2 that are most relevant. I’m working on iPhone videos the next month or so but if you have any questions or recommendations for videos on the MacBook just leave a new comment. RUclips makes it hard for us to find replies.
Great video, I'll be using my laptop for mobile wedding DJing. I've heard some DJ's say they have been DJing and their laptop stops or turns off to update. I'm not sure if it was on a Mac or not tho. If the Mac does this, do you know how I can stop it? Thanks 👍
@@DHTV Under Software Updates, I can see something called Automatic Updates, next to it, it says Security Updates Only. Should I leave it on that do you think? Thanks for your help
I bought my M2 few days ago. Confused between the options: Sleep, Shut down, Lock Screen. Generally, I use sleep option on my old windows laptop. Should I do the same in my Mac ?
70 yo lifelong windows user - I’d been thinking of switching for easier synching, and yesterday my 13 yo HP laptop died so I bought the entry level M2 MacBook Air. Going through the videos now.
That’s great. Honestly, I think that Max our way easier to use and safer. Feel free to ask if you have any questions down the road and have a look at my channel. If you’re looking for more tips and tricks with your Mac, I do have a few other videos.
To be honest I have never seen those file types if that’s what they are? I’d assume you would need to install some sort of animation software though to create these.
Hai Dan, thank you for the tutorial, it help a lot, yesterday my brother bought The Macbook Air M2, after update the software, the Mac ask to input the password of apple id if you want to get in to the icloud, after input the password, it didn’t work, just stuck there, can you help me with this, thanks you
Hi! I am a new MacBook Air user, my boss wants me to download a dual boot for windows however I've learned that Mac air M2 is not supported by bootcamp. do you have any suggestion on what app to download for me to have a dual boot? thanks
Yeah it’s the same thing Apple changed it to System Settings now. The settings are all the same but they are just moved around a bit. Use the search bar in the settings to find each option I mentioned
I need you help please am a first time user to Apple. I tried setting up on my own but I can't get verify my email account because the password is wrong. And I don't have a security options so I can't retrieved the account. So now I can't download anything. Can I reset it to factory default.
I have never used Mac-book pro but am getting chance to use 2011 Mac-book pro 17-inch. Can I watch RUclips and use MS-office for words and Excel? also can I install few basic, small softwares like CPU-Z, VLC media player, Adobe acrobat reader. can I play old arcade games like Pacman using emulator. Window-7 has an option of playing old games by changing compatibility of the software, is there any similar function in mac-OS?
There are ways to do most if not all of those things you just need to find the Max version or instructions to do so. Also based on your MacBook specs games may work or not.
As a man of 60 years old, who never had technology. I don’t have a clue what this guy is saying. It just seems way too complicated. As a retired truck driver, a working man I’m curious but it’s just doesn’t fit into my lifestyle. I have a smart phone, but I can barely use it. It is what it is. My generation did not grow up with technology. It’s easy to do without it.
The M2 MacAir is basically a piece of c**p. Try disappointed and will likely return. Connected to WI-FI but says it isn't., won't accept passwords and the tale of woe goes on. For $2,000 I'd expect better. Maybe the "Pro" version at an additional $1,000 is better but I'd doubt it. Day 3 and still trying to move data from another older mac.....
It isn't for everyone but seems based on just what you said in the comment that you are dealing with technical issues. Migrating data from on computer to another is always time consuming. Not sure what issues you are dealing with while trying to transfer the data but I have had many issues with hard drives, PCs, Macs etc trying to do the same thing over the years. I don't defend Apple at all as my M1 MacBook Pro constantly runs out of memory and basically crashes when I am doing simple tasks. This turned out to be a glich, however there is no fix. If you provide more context with your issues I could possibly guide you in the right direction.
Just got one today and I've used windows all my life so I need this in my life today. Thank you

Can I watch RUclips and use MS-office for words and Excel? also can I install few basic, small softwares like CPU-Z, VLC media player, Adobe acrobat reader. can I play old arcade games like Pacman using emulator. Window-7 has an option of playing old games by changing compatibility of the software, is there any similar function in mac-OS?
There are ways to do most if not all of those things you just need to find the Max version or instructions to do so. Also based on your MacBook specs games may work or not.
As a man of 60 years old, who never had technology. I don’t have a clue what this guy is saying. It just seems way too complicated.
As a retired truck driver, a working man I’m curious but it’s just doesn’t fit into my lifestyle. I have a smart phone, but I can barely use it. It is what it is. My generation did not grow up with technology. It’s easy to do without it.

I don't even know how to erase my messages. Duh!
What do you mean erase your messages?
I left school in 1980 walked away and never looked back. This is just way way way too much.
This does not fit my lifestyle. It is what it is
The M2 MacAir is basically a piece of c**p. Try disappointed and will likely return. Connected to WI-FI but says it isn't., won't accept passwords and the tale of woe goes on. For $2,000 I'd expect better. Maybe the "Pro" version at an additional $1,000 is better but I'd doubt it. Day 3 and still trying to move data from another older mac.....
It isn't for everyone but seems based on just what you said in the comment that you are dealing with technical issues. Migrating data from on computer to another is always time consuming. Not sure what issues you are dealing with while trying to transfer the data but I have had many issues with hard drives, PCs, Macs etc trying to do the same thing over the years. I don't defend Apple at all as my M1 MacBook Pro constantly runs out of memory and basically crashes when I am doing simple tasks. This turned out to be a glich, however there is no fix. If you provide more context with your issues I could possibly guide you in the right direction.
Naaa, no thanks
It’s just too much not my thing.
Thank you very much
No problem.
