60 Second Mac

Summary: GOT A MINUTE? 60 Second Mac brings you brief but hopefully useful how-to videos every week concerning the Mac and other Apple products and related software. Things I've learned in almost 30 years of using the Mac! That way you can quickly learn one cool thing about your Mac or iOS device once a week. You may know a few of them, but probably won’t know all of them! Have a cool Apple tip or trick of your own? Post it or email it in and we might make a podcast out of it!
