Volume Up/Down Alert Sound

As many of you know, the beeping sound while raising or lowering the volume can be turned off/on. (System Preferences > Sound > Play feedback when volume is changed)

As I posted earlier, holding down ALT and SHIFT will change the volume in very small intervals.

What I just discovered is that by only holding the SHIFT, you can make the volume beeping sound turn on or go away.

MultiClutch

I have not tried this out yet but it looks very useful for people who have a multi-touch trackpad laptop (Mac, of course).

Wake up your MacBook with Lid Closed

I recently bought the new unibody MacBook Pro 15″ – an absolute beauty – and so I am finally posting up tips that are relevant to MacBooks and not Macs such as the iMac. :D
MBP -> me // iMac -> brother

- Close your MacBook.
- Aim Apple Remote at MacBook.
- Press any button.
- MacBook should wake up.

Very useful if you have an extra monitor that your MacBook is hooked up to. But as you probably just realized – you no longer have a keyboard and mouse -_-”

Desktop Shortcut

Command + Expose = Show Desktop

For me command + F3 does the same thing that a “Show Desktop” shortcut would do.

Perfect example of the creativity you can be inspired from.

Mac Desktop Shortcut

I knew going back to Windows Vista would give me many Mac tips to post! :D

First thing I realized I was missing is the shortcut for “Desktop” whenever you have a save dialog box. Instead of opening up the list of options, you can just press COMMAND+D.

Try it out.

Dock Hide/Unhide Haiku

A Haiku for how to hide/unhide your dock. Clear up some wasted space but know that sometimes having the dock is more efficient for your work.

Big screens are better.
Be efficient with screen space.
Alt, Command, and D.

Spotlight Hotkey

Mac OS X – Spotlight hotkey is, by default, command + space bar (apple/command + space bar).
