Not enough words to express my appreciation of Mac enchained my life. Here is my survey from Apple web page.

Tip on Spotlight: Finding files

Spotlight is a very useful feature in Mac world. Here is my quick tip: how to use spotlight feature to find a file when you try to find file from Finder. This is specially  useful when you try to update files from internet browser.

Step 1: click your home icon on the left side.
Step 2: type in file name in spotlight

In short, you don't need to know where you files are in your Mac.

Windows Key for Mac Keyboard

At work, I use my MBP to access to Windows VM. Recently, I find s shortcut for access Desktop in Windows: Windows key + D. However, MBP does not have a Windows key. Quickly, I found an awesome solution from AskDeferent: Right Command + D!

This works beautifully, the corresponding Windows key in MBP is Right Command.

In addition to that, I also found a shortcut key to show and hide my Dock in small size: Option+Command+D.
