@@malicahamilton I snagged a Mac Mini. Love it....mad I didn't make the move sooner. That ecosystem is crazy with how all Apple devices just work together. Enjoy it.
Hello, I'm in my late 60's. My son usually sets up all my new electronic devices. Today my new macbook air arrived and he is overseas. So I decided to try to set up my macbook with the help of youtube. The first video started with custom settings. I was having trouble with plugging it in. Thanks to you I was able to completely set it up and I am using it now. I can not thank you enough.
Very few tech TH-camrs do this kind of video. Great to see one from you. It's beneficial for someone who just got a Mac for herself or himself. P/s: I edited it guys, thanks for your suggestion.
Funny that you fixed it. Native English speakers will often say such things on casual communication. In fact some parts of society would consider your use of "themselves" to be good because it's gender neutral and "himself or herself" is assuming a gender typical reader. Personally I don't care either way, your English is better than many and after taking a quick look at a couple of your other comments it's hard to say with certainty that it's not your first language.
@@jacobpaint Well... I am not trying to please anyone or anything. I just simply put things into consideration, but thanks for the clarification. Also, it's not like I am writing an assignment, so making a few mistakes here and there are not like the world's end. After all, it's just a comment.
I am a complete luddite who has just changed from PC to MAC so was a little apprehensive about being able to get my head around things. This is one of the best video guides/tutorials I have come cross - on any subject. Following it through, step by step and I am set up and ready to go. Brilliant, thank you and well done!
Most other TH-cam tutorials are so quick, and always skip over the details and the basics, so I loved how you took your time to actually explain, and not stress through it as fast as possible like you had a gun to your head 😅 keep up the good work!
Dude you have almost every permutations combination of tests once can perform on a MacBook. I doubt even the testing team at Apple did all of the test that you did . Cheers mate !
Probably the best set guide to anything I've ever seen on TH-cam. Concise, knowledgeable, easy to follow and you didn't even need to say "like yeah" 200 times. Thank you very much.
Believe it! I manifested mine, it does work. It was not in my budget but I went through the process of putting it in my cart online exactly as I wanted it and then letting it go. I received mine as a birthday gift yesterday that I was not expecting. I was manifesting it about 3 weeks ago and I believed and let it go.
These M1 machines will be the first Mac for many PC users (me being one of them), so this type of videos is hugely helpful for us in our first steps with Mac OS. Please do more of those!!
Just ordered a MB Air, first time going to use mac after being a windows user for 15 years - credits to mind blowing M1 chip. Great video, thanks a lot
I've actually received my Macbook pro 2 days ago, dude this is just what I was looking for THANKS YOU SO MUCH.. Fantastic tips for a Apple bigginer such as me
I don’t even have a laptop regardless of having a Mac, why am I watching this? I know why, because Liam is an absolute legend and deserves watch time and a like :)
Thank you so much for making this video. I'm a owner of Macbook Air M1 2020; and I'm new using Mac. I have been struggling last night on how to close the apps and windows and do the basics, Now i know thanks to this video.
Hey Ik I’m late but I jsut wanted to tell u if u cant afford a MacBook from Amazon or straight from apple or any phone or iPad go to Swappa it’s a Place where I got my iPhone 12 Pro Max and my new laptop for like 600$ and it’s just like new all u have to make sure is that u make sure there’s not scratches and it comes straight (also uses pay pal so no scams)
Thanks for your great content Liam. Ordered a 16gb Air last night, which should arrive at the end of January. I would be grateful for a video on screen protectors and case cover accessories, if possible.
To record the screen just press shift+command+4 and to take a screenshot from just a part of the screen press shift+command+3. TIP: to copy-paste with the same format of the destination just press shift+control+command+v (it is very useful for docs or words)
You absolutely Aussie legend. Thanks so much for the quick guide, you've explained things nicely without being too tech-ey. I wish I had seen this vid when I actually unwrapped my new Mac and, being a newbie to apple, I didn't know what to do! Lucky me for unwrapping this cool machine. I definitely look forward to seeing more videos.
Thanks a lot for this initial setup and quick help on things in MAC. You mentioned that you will do detailed video of things in Mac for beginners. Really looking forward to that as I have ordered M1 Air which is yet to be delivered but have never used MacOS.
i'm new to your channel and just wanted to say, you have a fluid way of presenting information in bite-sized bits that is extremely helpful...gotta give props to those that create value for others, thanks.
I wish I’d known about this video when I was setting up my new Mac about three weeks ago, I finally did the environment switch from Windows to Mac, something I should’ve done two years ago but I did it. I’m on a new M1 MacBook Air.
@@The_Calm_Chaos I’m not sure how much longer you’ll be a windows user :). That was my intention too: my old windows now belongs to my friend. I’m full time Mac now
@@harrisontu264 Well I have a powerful (yet slim) 17" gaming laptop that I love, so I don't expect the little 13" Mac Air will replace it. But we'll see :)
@@The_Calm_Chaos let me know. I had the exact same thing, something very similar anyway, but I’ve definitely switched. I will be very curious to know your experience
A shortcut to screen record / screen shot is command shift 5. I don’t think it records audio from your device tho so maybe QuickTime is better in that aspect (I haven’t tried the QuickTime method)
You saved me, I just received my MacBook first Apple product ever and I couldn't get off the select language screen. 🤣🤣. I kept tapping the trackpad with my fingers. Thank you.
It's really a surprise to listen to you starting the video with congratulations for the Mac...which I haven't received yet 😐 I can really use this video to setup the Mac from your giveaway...when I receive it
Thank you for this! I just bought my first MacBook 2 weeks ago. I’m still getting used to certain things even simple things like copy and past on the track pad are different from a windows computer. The little handbook Apple sent after my purchase was pretty helpful too! An idea for another video maybe some cool customization ideas or tips on how to customize certain features for aesthetic purposes I also have a question: would I need to have virus protection software installed on my Mac ?

Congratulations on opening the plastic seal right. My soul has been fulfilled
Seriously considering buying my first Mac. These M1s are hard to resist.
Just got mine today ☺️
@@malicahamilton I snagged a Mac Mini. Love it....mad I didn't make the move sooner. That ecosystem is crazy with how all Apple devices just work together. Enjoy it.
Only reason I bought a MacBook Air M1 today, is cause I need a good laptop. I already have a custom built beast PC 😅

just stop spending money on eating out or home delivery. trust me, saves a lot of money. money that you can invest into tech.
U will get it. Don’t reduce ur self esteem.
seriously, believe me, you can. M1 Macs are more value for money than any windows right now.
wtf is it about saying will never. work hard you will get there someday

Man.. I wish I had a new Mac to set up. I’m watching this in the hopes that I will somehow manifest a new Mac into my life
Believe it! I manifested mine, it does work. It was not in my budget but I went through the process of putting it in my cart online exactly as I wanted it and then letting it go. I received mine as a birthday gift yesterday that I was not expecting. I was manifesting it about 3 weeks ago and I believed and let it go.
Ive been asking since grade 7 im almost done 10th now and it was a surprise just keep waiting

As a new Mac user this video was extremely helpful. Short and straight to the point.
You’re a genius! Thank you so much for this walkthrough. I had my new MacBook Air and didn’t know what to do with it until now. 🙏🏼😍
Glad I could help!
I admire your dedication to M1 Macs and the fact that you’re going through every possible test a user could do, well done!
Just ordered a MB Air, first time going to use mac after being a windows user for 15 years - credits to mind blowing M1 chip. Great video, thanks a lot
Understanding your "How to" Strategy!!! You're making most out of M1 Macs!
The m1 Macbook air is literally my dream Macbook I'm saving up for it and I REALLY hope I can get it before the end of the year
Love how the channel is really growing and consistently contributing to this new Mac community. This guy's channel is basically Reddit for M1s.
I've actually received my Macbook pro 2 days ago, dude this is just what I was looking for THANKS YOU SO MUCH..
Fantastic tips for a Apple bigginer such as me
this is the most detailed introductory video for people new to the mac I've seen so far, much needed for loads of people.
Thank you for the subtitles! As a deaf person it’s amazing to watch a video like this with subtitles. Doubting to buy a Mac so it’s really helpful!!
Thank you for this. As a Mac newbie this was very helpful, plus your voice is very soothing to listen to. lol
Australian accent is so smooth. That's why I love Thor so much⚡🔨❤
Watching this as I wait for my first ever Mac to arrive. I'm soooo excited! Thank you so much for this video!
I don’t even have a laptop regardless of having a Mac, why am I watching this? I know why, because Liam is an absolute legend and deserves watch time and a like :)
I did a lot of research which Mac to get and this M1 wins. Excited to receive my order 🙏🏽✨ my first mac, a birthday gift for myself ❤
Literally ran out of adjectives while praising your amazing and high quality content. I would just say keep it up mate .... 👍🏻👍🏻😚😚🤩🤩
Thank you so much for making this video. I'm a owner of Macbook Air M1 2020; and I'm new using Mac. I have been struggling last night on how to close the apps and windows and do the basics, Now i know thanks to this video.
Mine is coming after the first of the year. Thanks for videos. Happy Holidays.
This vid has just got me even more hyped about the new macs

Ooh I’m gonna need to watch this again once I get a Mac eventually...
Your video is great and really helped me understand more. I purchased my first MacBook today, it’s being delivered tomorrow, super excited!! 😁
It's been 8 years since I set up my current mac. A testament to their products, but it's time to move on and go lighter. An air is in my future.
I've have mine for 8 years as well and just recently upgraded.
I’m getting my MacBook tomorrow! I’m so excited and also thanks for introduction it’s so helpful. It’s gonna be my first apple laptop ever.
I fell in love with this dude when he muted the siri prompt so it wont activate on our devices
Just ordered the Apple Mac book air 2020 with the M1 chip. Been seeing so many good reviews. Thank you for this shirt but sweet video.
Thank you for making this video. I'm a first timer switching from Windows to Mac, this is certainly helpful
Most comprehensive M1 videos I've found so far 👍
I love how you muted "Hey Siri" 😁😁👍🏻
Thanks for teaching I'm about to buy a Mac and I don't know about macos you are so friendly teaching so well
Thanks for your great content Liam. Ordered a 16gb Air last night, which should arrive at the end of January. I would be grateful for a video on screen protectors and case cover accessories, if possible.
Youre a life saver. I just got my macbook and i was so lost before watching this but now i feel lil bit more comfortable around my laptop so thanks
This helped me sooo much, because im buying the new mac.
Took me a while to find a video like this.
An unboxing, and step by step intro into setting it up
You can also do cmd+shift+5 for a screen record without opening QuickTime and cmd+ctrl+esc to stop it.
i currently dont have a macbook but im getting one in 5 days so i cant stop watching videos about macbooks!
I think this video has long ways to go, useful for the future.
To record the screen just press shift+command+4 and to take a screenshot from just a part of the screen press shift+command+3. TIP: to copy-paste with the same format of the destination just press shift+control+command+v (it is very useful for docs or words)

I love how it’s just open the lid, not even press the button- that’s just nice to have haha
Sometimes the small things Apple does ** me off, but then i think "Microsoft would have thought of that" and put my mind at ease :)
First watched it on my Windows laptop. Now watching it again on my brand new MacBook Air!!
Wow, this is very educational, my friends were struggling to do that, so this is very useful. I love all the tests that you did too. ❤️
U taught so nicely and easily , everyone can understand it , thanks and god bless u
