[QUOTE="yuvismahi2, post: 1856747, member: 404998"] Hey Everyone, I'm really interested in getting a MacBook. I've been disappointed in the build quality and hardware of windows machines and I'm looking to switch. I'm not sure if this is the right subreddit, but I feel like you guys are power users and really know Mac OS, so that's why I'm here. I borrowed a friend's old macbook air and explored Mac OS a bit. A couple things poped as not being intuative for me and I was wondering how you guys work in Mac OS. [LIST] [*]Opening an App that's open in another desktop If Safari is open in desktop 1 and I want to launch Safari in desktop 2, why instead of opening a new window in desktop 2 why does Mac OS change desktops and show me the Safari window in desktop 1? [/LIST] -How to see minimized windows in exposé If I minimize a window how can I see that window? When I use exposé the minimized windows are hidden. -command-tab Command tab on Mac OS is so weird for me. If all chrome windows are x-ed out chrome still shows up in command tab. So command tabbing to it just shows my my desktop. Ideally I'd like command tab to show my open windows and not open programs. -Show Desktop When I take a screenshot and it saves to my desktop, I have to minimize every open window to see my desktop. Is there a minimize all option? [LIST] [*]Resizing windows A strange thing I noticed was that when Resizing a browser page I was that when you go less than 50% of the screen instead of trying to rearrange the page to show everything it just cut off the information. [/LIST] I feel like the work flow on Mac OS is a bit different than on windows. Ideally I want each desktop to be self contained. If I command tab in desktop 1 it shouldn't show me what's open in desktop 2. If I open a app in desktop 3 it should open in desktop 3. I'm really looking for solutions, shortcuts, or utilities that fix these problems. I find it really hard to feel efficient on Mac OS with these issues. It slows me down quite a bit. Thanks everyone!
