20 Mac Annoyances And How To Fix Them

Thanks for helping me customize my Mac.

The key lock (keyboard lock) was not removed even tough i followed the instructions. instead, it when i turned the computer of and restarted it. its very, very important to get rid of it completely; i cant stand it :)

finLLY.. I AM SO annoyed with Mac. windows is heaven. this video really helped to keep some annoyance at bay.

I use a 75 inch 8K TV as a monitor. How can I set screen size and resolution on my Mac without everything being tiny or having to use a lower resolution in the Display Settings?

One of your best works so far!! Thanks for being so patient and thorough in making this video.

These tips are everything! Don’t mind me as I change my settings 😊

Great info,you are a smart apple. You should number the videos, so people can find them again. You go kind of fast.

Great hints, thanks

Thanks for a very useful video. I just left System Settings/Desktop & Dock open off the side of my browser so I could pause the video and make changes as appropriate.

Hey Gary,
Really good video. In my Tahoe 26 the windows I call up are small and try as i might I have to stretch them out every single time. Why wont they stay large? thanks

Love this. The first one has been driving me crazy!

Thanks, dear, for the very helpful content for mac users..i am able to learn a lot from this video.

Most people arent saages and actully use the desktop 😛

For the regular person, not submerged in the juicy, complex world of Mac, we just want to know where the goddam Downloads disappeared! You would think Apple would tend to the common sense shit first.

Thank you!

Gary, thanks for all of these "fixes"! I just purchased a newer Mac and I'm now experiencing Tahoe 26. These fixes really helped me to customize my new Mac the way I wanted. Your tutorials are excellent. Keep them coming!

@macmostvideo Thank you so much! very thorough! At 05:38 you talk about Cursor and Highlight Colors. I was so excited when I saw that, but then disappointed to find out that I can’t find a setting like that on my iPad. For years I have been calling Apple and sending feedback about the fact that there’s a dark blue vertical cursor in Reminders in dark mode on the iPad, which I can barely see. Do you know if there’s a way to make that cursor a brighter blue or yellow or something that shows up on a black background?

Great Vid bro! Thanks so much!

Thank you for all your videos ----

🆘🆘🆘 Satanic emojies!

NOTIFICATIONS: How do I get Messenger to stop asking me to log in? (it's off , notifications off, but it still asks)

thank you very much! this video has made a lot for my mental health hahaha

Why am I getting annoying news notifications, where the calendar notifications should be?

New to Mac mini and find your videos very useful. Now Subscribed.. 👍 Thank You...

Hello I switched from Windows to Mac mini M4 to have it as my work machine. On windows you can click on slider for any function like exposure, contrast or anything else and slide left or right with mouse wheel. But on Mac this is somehow not available feature. Is there any apps to go "around" it? So I could keep using Mac and not throw it in the bin? Thanks you :)

Thanks! Just made the jump last week and am liking what I’ve found on your channel.
I’ll take some minor annoyances over what Windows has become. I’ll be watching a whole bunch of your videos to make the jump even easier.

Let me get this, people are annoyed because they turn off the caps lock, instead of just hitting the caps lock key again??? Are you serious….

Way too many settings.Drives me nutz!

only 20 annoyances?

Having worked with Apple computers for about 25 years now, the arrival of Tahoe OS 26.1 has disrupted my work habits. It's incredibly frustrating. Fortunately, your various videos have been a huge help in reconfiguring the system settings to suit my needs. And I realy miss Launchpad.

Cat on the keyboard. Now my YouYube comments　インCぃう　Japanese is sometimes shown. How can I eliminate this?

The most annoying thing for me is that MAC in their infinite wisdom changed the tags from the full width of a folder to just a dot at the end, this was always a great way for me to separate or group files in a large list in one folder.

Hi Mac - thank you for that all very useful - I have a problem with my Mac in that sometimes for no apparent reason there screen enlarges and I can't get ti back to normal - any advice would be appreciated

Im sorry as a windows and Mac user foir decades some of these things are just stupid. Explaining why things are the way they are is important.quit all windows for example. But i started to write thi when you ignored notifications and specifically this is whats Focus mode is about. !!!!
