2013-06-10
for our first California themed release we went just outside our backyard just off the coast to a place with some of the biggest waves and most extreme surfing in all of North America OS 10 now Mavericks is a release with deep technology focused on extending battery life and providing responsiveness it has great new apps and enhancements for every Mac user and some features that we think are going to really appeal to our power users and I want to talk about just three of them right now starting with finder tabs sounds like you guys know how this is gonna work so you of course can work in the finder with multiple windows it's a very powerful tool but now you can draw all those windows together in tabs here's finder environment I got a lot going on a lot of Windows a lot of different locations I'm going to go up here to the window menu and let's merge all my windows just like that it hopped into a set of tabs now of course these tabs at different locations different view settings for each of those locations creating a tab is just to choose it you'd expect just click plus i can select another location like airdrop maybe another for this work file share I've going right here and now that I have multiple tabs it's a really great way to actually work in copy documents if I want to copy this field report I can just hover over the airdrop tab drop it just like that really nice and of course I can now take finder full screen next let's take a look at tagging this is really cool so as I go to save a document you notice I can give it a name like let's say project plan and in addition to its location in this case I'm going to save it in iCloud I can also give it a tag from any of the tags I've made up so i'm going to call this document important looks pretty important to me and we'll go here into the finder and you've seen the Finder sidebar I have an important tag and I see all these documents they're from different locations different applications all drawn together in sidebar we have other tags have given things for things that are draft and in review now of course with tags I can assign multiple tags to the same document it's part of the power of tags so I go here and I'm going to say this one is also in review and you notice as I sign that tag it now appears in that location as well I can also assign tags by just dragging things in to the tag area in the finder so different assets from my website just drag them in and they're tagged like that and tags are great for searching next let's take a look at multiple displays I'm going to open up some of the kind of windows that I often working with will open up iphoto here maybe a keynote presentation and I actually have a second display connected to this macbook pro let's show that up there on the display now of course with multiple displays I can just move windows cross displays like you'd expect but now i can get up at my menu bar in the second display if i go down to the bottom i can summon the dock just like that if i want to open an app on the second display i can just open it on the dock here and here's itunes take this app full screen just like that and as I swipe spaces just right back there just on that display let's take a keynote full screen as well I'm gonna go back to my first display here let's even take I photo full screen so now I have different full screen apps on my different displays it's actually a really fantastic way to work going here in two favorite travels and I can now drag assets across my full screen apps like that super cool and Mission Control has just been super charged for multiple displays so I'm going to go now into Mission Control and we see my different full screen spaces and desktops across applications I can drag a window from one display to another but I can also go and drag a full screen app right across displays bring preview open and now I've have that full screen on this display as well
