15 tips every Mac user should know
There are so many different ways to get things done using a Mac and I hope this selection of useful tips will offer most Mac users at least one or two features you may not have encountered before:
Command-Space
The keyboard shortcut that gets you to Spotlight search for those times you don’t want to speak to Siri.
Quick conversion
To get a quick conversion just launch Spotlight and type the figure you want to convert, $100 or 76Kg, for example. Spotlight will show you a range of conversions for that figure, though things like currency conversion will only work when your Mac is online.
Screenshot control
Sometimes you want to take a screenshot of a specific part of the screen. When you do just tap Command + Shift 4 and you can click and drag a box to define which part of the screen you want to take a picture of. You can toggle between an image you select using the cross-hair or an application window by pressing Spacebar at the same time – try it now to see what I mean.
