  1. Oct 07, 2019  Sidecar screen sharing is one of the tentpole features of macOS Catalina and iPadOS 13. Apple to cross-develop several iPad and Mac apps last.
  2. Oct 31, 2016  Aside from the marquee Touch Bar feature and other hardware advances, the new MacBook Pro introduces a tweaked boot process where the machine automatically starts up when you open its lid or connect it to power. To avoid forcing users to listen to the startup chime every time they open the lid, Apple’s also decided to disable the boot chime on the new notebook by default (you can.

To use a keyboard shortcut, press and hold one or more modifier keys and then press the last key of the shortcut. For example, to use Command-C (copy), press and hold the Command key, then the C key, then release both keys. Mac menus and keyboards often use symbols for certain keys, including modifier keys:

Jan 03, 2018  Since the client had a second Mac available, I decided to enable Screen Sharing on the MacBook Pro via Terminal, which allowed access to the faulty laptop over.


On keyboards made for Windows PCs, use the Alt key instead of Option, and the Windows logo key instead of Command.

Some keys on some Apple keyboards have special symbols and functions, such as for display brightness , keyboard brightness , Mission Control, and more. If these functions aren't available on your keyboard, you might be able to reproduce some of them by creating your own keyboard shortcuts. To use these keys as F1, F2, F3, or other standard function keys, combine them with the Fn key.

Change volume of certain apps mac. Apr 16, 2020  To mute, decrease, or increase the volume on your Mac, press F10, F11, or F12 on your keyboard, respectively. To enable the volume slider in the menu bar, click the Apple menu → click System Preferences → click Sound → check the 'Show volume in menu bar' box. You can also change the volume with your keyboard keys or OLED Touch Bar. Jun 29, 2019  Before you can use Background Music to set different volume levels for apps, you need to understand how it works. The volume level for an app is set relative to the current volume level for the OS. For example, if your volume is currently set to 50%, the volumes you set for an app will always be equal to, or less than 50% of the volume. Jun 15, 2016  The Mac has some great features but controlling volume of individual applications isn't one. Here are 2 apps that will let you do just that. Mar 10, 2016  When you use an app to play a sound, that app appears in the Volume Mixer. You can adjust the volume for any app just by dragging its slider. The Device slider controls the master volume. The level you set for each app is relative to the master volume, so as you change the master volume, the volumes for each app also change. So if you want to change the volume of iTunes or Spotify, skip tracks, or pause while you are working in another app, these 2 apps will allow you to do that. Both apps provide built-in basic itunes controls, but I had to use Applescript to control Spotify. Here are some Applescript examples that can be used for these types of functions in both.

There are users who find Notifications on Mac helpful while there are others who find them distracting. Whatever maybe your take on notifications, it is really easy to enable, disable and change notifications on your Mac.

Notification Center On Mac

The notification center on Mac keeps you informed about what is happening on your Mac and elsewhere in the world by displaying Alerts, Banners, and badge notifications from apps that you make use of on your Mac.

By default, most apps on Mac have their notification style set to Banners. However, you can change the notification style to Alerts or totally disable notifications for apps that you are not particularly interested in getting notifications from.

Unfortunately, there is no global setting for notifications on Mac. Hence, there is no way to disable or change the notification style for all the Apps at once on your Mac.

However, you can focus on certain active apps that appear to bother you quite often with Alerts or banners and change their notification behaviour or totally disable notifications from such active apps.

Enable or Disable Notifications On Mac

It can be really distracting to get notifications from the Mail or the Message App while you are trying to focus on work and trying to get something done. During such busy periods you can silence the Mail app by disabling notifications for this app on your Mac.

1. Click on the Apple icon from the top Menu-bar of on your Mac and then click on the System Preferences… option in the drop-down menu.

2. On the System Preferences screen, click on Notifications.

3. On the Notifications screen, first click on the App for which you want to Enable or Disable Notifications (See image below)

4. To disable Notifications for the selected app, set the Alert Style to None (See image above).

5. Whenever you feel the need to enable notifications on Mac, change the Alert Style from None to either Alerts or Banners.

Change Notifications Style On Mac

Mac offers notifications in the form of Alerts and Banners. The main difference between these two types is that Banners appear in the upper right corner of your screen and go away automatically while Alerts will stay on the notification center and remain on the screen of your Mac, until they are dismissed manually by clicking on them.

This means that you are better off setting the Notification style to Alerts, in case you want to make sure that you do not miss any notifications for a particular app on your Mac.
