Hey guys how's your day?
I just got myself a macbook for studying purpose. (Well that's what i told my parents lol)
And i have a few questions regarding mac, a lot of the applications i downloaded seem to be in .dmg extension so i assume that is the universal format for mac?
Q1
I tried skype, msn and vlc first. As i opened up these 3 files, the virtual thing of them appeared. And i cannot delete the dmg file, so by dragging them into the application folder does that mean i have it installed on my comp?
Q2
I have started deleting programs that i don't want to use such as iwork etc as mentioned in another thread, already saved me 2G. Can all other applications be deleted with the same method? Just spotlight search and kill all related files without the add or remove program like in windows?
Q3
mac messenger, i had groups of people in my windows msn like school, family etc. When i started mac they all seem to be seperated into online and offline. Anyway i can create groups?
Thanks a lot for your help ^^. I'm already starting to love the mac system. Gonna have to wear gloves when using it to keep it white haha >.<
