Some general tips for OS X (subjective of course)
- Spaces are akin to Workspaces (Three finger left/right swipe) and are great for running VM's fullscreen.
- Use gestures (Two finger/Three finger Left/Right/Up/Down swipe or grab/spread)
- Spotlight (Command-Space) is handy
- Give Safari a fair try but you mightn't like it (I switched from Chrome last year and am loving it)
- I never use Launchpad (Grab gesture)
- dysfunction 11y agoAlfred is even better than Spotlight alone, I have it mapped to option-A and I never launch apps any other way.
- CodeGenie 11y agoThanks dysfunction, good tip. I haven't looked at Alfred in a long time. Out of interest, for you, what differentiates Alfred from Spotlight in Yosemite? Having a quick look, Alfred having 1Password is excellent. Spotlight though is great for an instant Calculator and Currency conversion. Does Alfred support these OOTB? It looks pretty flexible, could I write something to integrate these? Do you have the powerpack? Is it useful?
