Hel­lo there, new Mac own­er. Con­grat­u­la­tions for pick­ing up a new Mac and mov­ing away from the Microsoft uni­verse. It’s good to have you here. But you’re here because you’re hav­ing trou­ble adjust­ing to the new sur­round­ings. Mov­ing from Win­dows to a Mac is like mov­ing to a new coun­try. You don’t just take a flight and set­tle down in the unknown ter­ri­to­ry. You first do your research, get an idea of what to expect and how things work and then start on your journey.

Think of this as your trav­el guide to Mac. OS X (pro­nounced â€‹â€˜ten’) Yosemite to be pre­cise. This guide is for the Mac begin­ner. It is about help­ing you under­stand the basics of the user inter­face and using it effi­cient­ly. We’ll show you how to nav­i­gate the OX inter­face, how to use the built-in apps, how to back up and man­age your data and give you tips on doing things bet­ter all along.
