'Tips & Tricks'

Switching through programs the easy way!

When you have many programs open at once you can press apple tab to see what you have open in a little transparent window. Keep your finger on apple and press tab once, or twice (etc.) untill you reach the program that is open and that you want to use. After this let go and that program should be open.

Adding Printers

Have you ever tried printing applications, but you can’t find the printer closest to you. No problem just hit apple P/ file print and presses on the printer bar. Now click add printer which opens up a window, click more printers and wait. After it is done loading click the one that you want and click add. This will now let you print at the printer you added to. It is very simple and easy. Remember to check with a teacher before adding a printer so you can see which one to add.

Showing and hiding your windows

OK, say you have a big science project due, and you need to use 3 different applications. A cool trick to do is press F9 to show all windows open at once. F10 shows all windows open of the same application. F11 hides everything. It’s great for big projects.
