      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.

      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.

    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

    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 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!

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

    just one small request: You running it like a sprint ... I know: all about efficiency. Right? But it's sometimes hard to follow immediately, which - for me - in the end takes even more times to get it all checked or done, because of the repeated stop&replay. ☺

      Just thinking the same. When natural scrolling is on the screen moves like it is under your finger like on iphone and ipad. For me it would be weird if i need to scroll in ”wrong direction” when on mac. So I have it on.
      Everything else in this video was spot on amazing 😊
