Can you please link the video about transferring from time machine? I’ve tried looking for it on your channel but there’s soooooo many videos (great job) but this is exactly what I’m looking for and the way you explain things tells me I need your help with transferring. I just purchased my Mac and I don’t want to mess anything up lol. Can you link it please 🙏🏼
This was so incredibly helpful. Thank you so much ! I am so afraid , lol, of technology that I affectionately refer to myself as a technotard! You have just helped me get over my first speed bump !
Great to be able to preview installation and get your advice as I actually went through the process. Will also look at your other videos. Thank you! 🍎🍎🍎
Thank you! I recently just bought an iMac. It’s a big change from an HP. I feel like I get lost. I love it though. I’m trying to figure out how to keep my photos on my iMac, but be able to delete them from my iPhone. Any advice?
yes. it’s not how it sounds. others can’t search for your personal pictures , it’s kind of like iCloud on your iPhone - that you can backup your pictures.videos there. here: th-cam.com/video/n_coc3zIB1I/w-d-xo.html
Excellent tutorial! My 27" iMac is arriving today and I wanted to start it up and "play" with it a little before I take it to Best Buy to have THEM completely transfer all my data, etc. over from my windows based computer. This should get me started! Thanks again!!
you don’t need to take it to Best Buy to have your info transfered since they will only be able to transfer your files. just buy an external hard drive and transfer the info yourself. it’s better. since that way you keep the external hard drive so you can have a backup of your files . I got a video on that
@@TechandDesign When I bought the computer and Best Buy ordered it, I also purchased a 2TD external hard drive, so after they used it to transfer all the info from my windows PC to the MAC, I can also add this ext. HD to my storage of 512GB). I consider myself quite a novice when it comes to internal computer things (and this transfer being one of them), so that's why I was going to have Best Buy do it. I would love to watch your video on it if you could direct me to it. Thanks!
Serious answer - this isnt just a monitor. It is the whole computer. And if you buy this, you will automatically get the mouse (or trackpad) and the keyboard. But yeah, you can use other brands as well.
I’m going to buy a Mac computer, but I have no idea what it else it comes with, besides the computer and keyboard. my question is: does the Mac computer come with a console? and if so, do we need to buy one?
Which Mac computer are you talking about ? You mean this exact Mac computer - the iMac (like in this video)? Than this will answer your question: th-cam.com/video/9dxyFZqKTOc/w-d-xo.html
my volume doesn’t work anymore,i’m getting a new phone and imac soon. i have a question, is that all you need? the computer the keyboard and mouse pad?
You need a computer of some sort to play games. There are versions of those games on Mac, but Mac computers aren't meant for gaming at all so your experience may not be particularly good depending on graphical settings and the specific Mac computer you have.
Pretty much any mouse that uses Bluetooth or a small USB receiver will work. I rarely use Macs but I did use a Logitech MX Anywhere 2S mouse on a 2010 Mac Mini without problems.
Hi I’m getting an iMac tomorrow and me and my mum will be sharing it, how do you create another user on there so we both have our own logins? Thank you !
Question; when "Transfer Information to This Mac" is selected if you choose "From a Mac, Time Machine" will you not be transferring possible issues that may have been present in your previous Mac??
Just bought 1 second hand it arrived felt bit damp it turned on got to when it asks for wi fi code went to take photo of it came back it was off wouldn’t turn back on changed fuse they collected it apparently when they turned it on it worked straight away any thoughts
Sir I have a problem. I set up a Mac book but an account called ittrade came up asking for a password and I don’t know it? What do I do? How do I do a reset on a Mac desktop? Help plz?
I have a question. So when you buy an iMac, you can just use it alone? It has the graphics card all that inside it? So all I need is the iMac, keyboard and a mouse?
I’m getting an iMac from Amazon, but the thing is, can you easily download files from websites? Because on Chromebook you need chrome dev, and I am not downloading anything like viruses but what am I saying is can you easily download things without a dev thing?
Hey so does bootcamp automatically come with iMac once you factory reset it? I'm asking because bootcamp was accidentally deleted on my iMac so that's why I'm here.
You need to click on keyboard and mouse at the purchase .... I just get one today the box is next to me ... literally I don’t want to open it because if I did ... I will not sleep all night ...genuinely I left it there until the weekend ... I’m afraid to see it .... get crazy about it ...it was almost 2289 $ also they gave me AirPods for free ... but if you like pro one I guess you need to add 69$ I guess ... and I did get Apple care too .... let see the first time I m having MAC ... but I’m good with technology...

Hai, so I’m getting a new computer for gaming and for my school work and am going back and forth with a gaming computer and the iMac, just wondering what u would prefer as my sister says the gaming computer has more storage I think so u can play more games and still do school work but my dad says the the iMac is better. Hopefully u see this as I’m rlly don’t know which one to buy ( btw sos if u have done a video on this, I am new to ur channel and just found u while searching and sry if u don’t know as I am very new to ur channel lol )

KanoaHD no. any bluetooth or wired keyboard should work
Serious answer - this isnt just a monitor. It is the whole computer. And if you buy this, you will automatically get the mouse (or trackpad) and the keyboard. But yeah, you can use other brands as well.
when creating an ID I put the phone number and then I got " your account can't be created at this time".
any idea?

Dose a iMac need a pc I need to know I’m buying one for my son very soon

@@TechandDesign do you need to be in the apple ecosystem to consider an imac or not
nope. not at all. you will probably end up moving towards an Apple ecosystem after you purchase a Mac just because you will see how great it is

no problem. I like it a lot because it saves space and they are pretty powerful
is it more powerful than a MacBook pro? I am thinking to bye MacBook pro 13 inches 2020 so which will be the best MacBook Pro or iMac
