What's the first thing you do after unboxing your MacBook?

@SkinovusCoded Год назад

First!

@SkinovusCoded Год назад

Yo, I got a heart about 2 seconds after I posted!

@SkinovusCoded Год назад

For real though, I think one of the first things I did was change the trackpad speed.

Mine is the older model 2021 16" Macbook Pro but this video is really helpful. Natural Scrolling is the first thing I'll change.

@zbeesapiary Год назад

Brandon… found your video by accident and it is a wealth of information- very well done too! I was setting up my wife’s new MacBook Pro M1 Max and needed to find a video that she could watch to help her understand the Mac system. She is migrating from Windows and needs to be “Appleized” quickly. For myself, I switched to a Mac Mini two yers ago and wish that I had seen this video then. Yes, I learned a few tricks and tips too. Thanks for the informative way you presented this tutorial. Looking forward to the Part Two you mentioned near the end.

WOOOW Thank you so much for such a great and helpful video!! 👍 Picked up a lot of life quality changes and features! I've been using MacBook since 2014 and a week ago finally decided to get a new one (got MacBook Pro 16 inch, 1 tb in Space Grey) and thought it will be fun to pick up new stuff since OS is new as well... Almost 10 years of using Mac and i didn't know about screen recording and part screen capture... this tells a lot about my tech usage ahahah

@dantesandoval6197 Год назад

how long the battery last using the m2 max unplugged for video editing?

@project_poor_runner Год назад

Just picked up an M2 MacBook Pro so that you for this. The magnetic charging and built in ports of the 2023 models was tempting but double the cost.

@bobwoolcock 7 месяцев назад

Very useful. However - you must have great eyes! I have to select the res to the left of the default instead of more space. Fonts across the apps and menus are too small for me that way. Unless you know of someway to keep the fonts big while upping the screen res....

@khalidam8345 Год назад

Do u have a video for MB pro 13 m2 or its the same thing can apply for both

@CebuLife 9 месяцев назад

Hi, I just got the M2 Macbook Pro and have been a Windows user (still am, my desktop) and I find this video pretty useful. I did notice though that you had set the Screensaver time to 10 minutes. This meant that you won't see it as your screen off time is set to 2 minutes on batteries (there's also a notification).

@scottrhutson Год назад

Tidy video been a windows user since win98 just got my 1st MacBook Pro so this really helped me learn few basic’s 👌🏽

If you enable 3 finger drag for windows the 3 finger gestures for mission control and app expose no longer work. They automatically get changed to 4 fingers

I am halfway through the video and tried the first few settings and found 2 conflicting settings... (app expose: swipe down with 3 fingers, and the trackpad dragging (3 finger drag)) they are mutually exclusive.

The problem with setting display to More Space makes texts on Google pages pretty small. Even text size of comments on RU-vid looks pretty small and it put strain on eyes.

@circlebamboo10000 Год назад

This is a great video for setting up the new MacBook Pro. Thank you. I’m going to purchase the new MacBook Pro and want to go with the 14inch M2 Max for its smaller size. But I read so many reviews to not get the M2 Max in 14inch but get the 16inch instead because the overheating issue on the 14inch. Is that really that bad? But if I get the 14inch M2 pro at 32gb 1TB, it’s only $200 less than the $3099 14inch M2 Max. Not sure 🤔

@DougMcCloud Год назад

I have not run into any issues with my 14" MBP (M2 Max) overheating. In fact, I've only noticed it getting slightly warm around the 6, T, and Y keys when rendering some 8k video.

@tomlewis4748 8 месяцев назад

Interesting. I've been annoyed that when I even looked cross-eyed at my trackpad it would register a click! God, is that annoying. Based on your vid, I checked-it was already set all the way up to firm (grumble grumble). The way I set it on day one. But before hurling the MBP off the balcony like a discus, I changed it all the way to 'light'. No change. So I moved it back to firm, and voila, now it's firm! The moral of the story is don't believe everything your screen tells you, and that settings can change randomly without any input from the user. Once again, the wisdom of Apple. Or lack of it. Thanks, BB.

You really think there’s thousands of people scrambling to your channel for these videos? Take your time, give us quality not quantity.
