Is an Apple MacBook worth it?

You can create a hot corner so that when you move the mouse to one of the corners of the screen it will put up a screensaver and lock your account. Then you just need to close the lid.

Settings > Desktop/screensaver > Hot corners button

Ahhhh brilliant, thank you. Just to make sure I’m doing the right thing, I click on the lock screen button right when choosing what you want the hot corner button to do?

I have it like this, but your way could work too.

Lock screen also works, I just set it up for the bottom corner.

I’m just going to copy you because you seem to know what you’re doing! Thanks!

Looks like for the bottom right hand corner I ran out of ideas.

I just selected Lock Screen for that.

Any more MacBook tips??

When you start an app and it appears in the dock at the bottom of the screen, you can right click > options > Lock to dock. This way if you close the app it's still available to start up from the dock.

cmd + spacebar brings up the search bar.

That's all I got.

nice, thank you. I think ive figured out how to use the MacBook, its very simple... I was expecting it to be kinda difficult

mac books are the best laptops especially very good because they do NOT get viruses at all like how many non mac laptops do often.

Does the plastic hardcover ruin the hinge on a MacBook? I had one on mine but removed it after I saw an unboxing video and all the comments said it ruins it..

Google provides very contradictory answers.

How do you all take care of your laptops? It is just better to get a sleeve? How do you keep your screens finger tip free? I have been using a wet wipe for screens but it’s not that good

I love my MacBook but I have no idea how to use it.

It’s very easy sis, what are you having trouble with?

I just find my iPad to be way more simple and user friendly so I basically just use my laptop to watch stuff 😬

I literally can never find things on it. And it’s so much harder to use iMovie and keynote on it so it’s just used for entertainment purposes. My IPad is where I get actual work done.
