You are the first mac user I have encountered, that knows where his files are :)
You didn't miss any detail for 11 minutes, I'm impressed and very educated now. Thank you learned person.
Dude you're a lifesaver. Switched to m2 air after 20 yrs of windows usage! i would have been lost without your explanation! thank you.
I appreciate you sharing your extensive knowledge of Mac OS with us. I am a lifelong PC user and recently bought a MacBook for college. Your videos have turned my frustrations into appreciation for the OS. Once again, thank you.
Thats a nice name ;)
which college you are studying in?
Came here to say this. Huge thanks!
same. my sentiments as well
Two valuable things I learnt which are really useful from this.
1. How to move folders and files ( CMD + C > Option + CMD + V)
2. How to forward delete. (Fn + Delete)
Thank you so much for this! Liked and subscribed.
Gary, you are fantastic, thanks a million!!! After 22 yrs on Windows I have just made the transition to Mac. What made things worse was being a tekkie I was familiar with the deep layers of Windows and its substructure. I was somewhat lost on the basics coming over to the MacOS. Despite Apple's enormous intelligence I found it does a very poor job of assistance in migration / introduction. If you search the apple database you find tiny bits and pieces of the knowledge you need. You done a superb job in understand, assembling, and presenting the solutions so many users need. Apple could really learn a thing or two from you. But I hope they don't, because we don't want you to ever leave us.
Thanks!
Someone coming from Windows here. Thank you for the clarity! Been wondering how the file structure worked.

THANK YOU!! Best tutorial ever on MAC system. I switched from Windows to MAC about six years ago. I’ve learned most of this “the hard way” on my own. This is a fabulous summary and answers many questions I have not been able to learn on my own.
Wish I’d known all of that years ago. Thanks! Your videos are so clear & helpful.
This is so informative. I wish I could sit down with you to help me figure out where everything is on my Mac and so much more! You make things clear, but I find afterwards I’ve forgotten what I learned. Ugh! I wonder how much of this is due to my old brain! You’re an excellent teacher, for sure! Thanks, Gary.
This is the most helpful, simple, thorough and clear explanation I have ever encountered.. thank you very much ❤️
Very good, stratight-forward explanation for those of us who are new to Mac. Thank you!
Last time I used a MacBook was in High School, almost 10 years ago, been only on windows since. Just bought a Mac today and was completely lost. Didn't even remember how to get to the actual hard drive (or i guess SSD in this case) window in finder, thank you for the quick and useful refresher!
Your voice is amazing! Thank you for teaching this with so much patience, keep up the amazing work!
Your knowledge of the Mac is invaluable. Thank You so much for sharing your knowledge and being such a indispensable resource 👍🏽
Thank you Gary, I am enjoying watching your videos!
I just moved to a Mac for a new job, and while I consider myself a Windows "power user", I've always just been kind of guessing and inefficient on a Mac. This was a great explanation- hyper focused with just the right amount of context for it all to make sense. Subscribing and checking out other videos.
I am fairly new to Mac. This was super helpful! Thank you, Gary!
Excellent as always Gary. Very easy to follow. Long time Apple user, hate windows now. Plus I teach Apple related classes so your tutorials are always great for my own prep work.
This video is worth a Dozen other TH-cam Videos, Saved my time, Thank You Gari
I had an iMac 2008 and it bit the dust some years ago so I switched to a laptop PC (which I’m still using--it’s been updated and using external monitor)--but have always missed having a Mac since I’m a iPhone/iPad, etc user. I finally bought an M2 pro Mac mini with upgrades to use with my external monitor and your videos are helping me immensely in getting reacquainted and organized. Thank you so much!
As all your products, impeccable presentation, outstanding subject delivery. Learning from you is enjoyable, you are the best.
No one can explain like you.... keep on uploading such tutorial for mac users.
Thank you so much! this was so clear and enlightening - I have had my mac for years and always been confused about what was on iCloud Drive and local files - now I understand. Thank you
WOW, what a channel it’s exactly what I’ve been looking for
Love the content you create! This is what I always wanted to know and you made my life simple. Thanks a lot for sharing this with us.
This is EXACTLY what I needed. I couldn't figure out how my PC knowledge on organizing folders could transfer to MAC. THANK YOU!!!
Clear, concise, informative, and to the point. Excellent video.
You helped me to understand my iMac, thank you
This channel will help me switching from Windows to Mac.
Great video. I was hoping you would also talk about external drives and their formats, but this was still extremely helpful. Thanks...
Great video, clear and direct explanation. Thank you!
Great video, very informative. I love the apartment analogy for explaining the file and folder structure.
Thank you so much. I just transitioned from a lifelong relationship with windows and I was having such a hard time with this. Thank you again
Nice presentation and no fluff information-thank you!!
Hello Gary, your tutorial videos save a lot of time on app research and safari, so appreciate your time and effort.
Hey all this years with my MacBook Pro and I didn’t know any of this stuff ..thank you for explaining these topics clearly

I honestly love your videos snd the way you give instructions.
That little iCloud desktop/documents tip was so useful, thanks!
Thanks Gary, been using Macs since 2011 and always struggled to understand file structure, best practice and what is on iCloud and what is not. This has helped.
This is a great tutorial thank you! I most appreciate the high info to chit chat ratio, which is so often inverted.
Thanks for all the great work you do.
Most excellent - thank you..I also appreciate the captioning.. great for those of us who are aging out :)
This, and your iCloud video, have been hugely helpful. Thank you.

Thanks Gary! I was following along and found some pics and things that have sentimental value that I thought were gone! I'm also getting ideas of how to organize my drive so that I could find things more easily.
Oops! I just realized that I am commenting on your other tutorial about the "finder". Still both tutorials are good! I came back to this is the reason. Thanks!

The Mac has been very frustrating for someone very familiar with Windows, but I think this is really going to help. I just wanted a Windows Explorer type view.

I somehow lost my account password. I would love any assistance you can give me
Extremely well described well done sir 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
