• Select the entered data and then select the Write option from the NFc Utility tab

• Label on NFC USB Reader. Moments after you put the tag on the NFC, you will see the message that the data transfer to the tag was successful.

The latest and most exciting technologies

NFC ring

One of the coolest technologies developed in this field is the NFC ring. This ring can be used to unlock and lock NFC phones, transfer information, communicate between people and more. The NFC ring, which requires no battery, has two transmitters, one for sending public information and the other for sending personal data.

With this gadget you can easily do many of the everyday things just by tapping the ring on your NFC phone. With this magical tool you can unlock your phone without entering your password or PIN, or even touching the screen.

Other amazing features include the ability to share information such as a Wi-Fi password, website links, images, audience information and other information, save bitcoin address , get paid, run apps with pre-personalized settings, and open-source apps (where possible).

Provides extensive modifications to various applications). To use this ring you only need to hold it and use it just like an NFC phone.

My UV Patch sticker

When you are outdoors in sunny weather, your skin absorbs sunlight, but it must be absorbed enough and absorb excessive damage to the skin. A new NFC tag, My UV Patch, alerts you to the amount of light absorbed.

It’s easy to use like any other NFC sticker and you just have to stick it on your hand and scan it with your phone.

Tag The YesItIs Tag Sensor

This label, which is a type of sensor, is a great tool for getting information about ambient air such as temperature and humidity and recording data. To use this label that can be installed anywhere, just scan it with your phone.

Sony Truly Wireless Bluetooth Headphones Bluetooth Wireless Headphones

As we mentioned earlier, NFC technology can easily pair headphones with the phone. Bluetooth Headphones Truly Wireless Bluetooth Headphones are one of those that have the capability of being paired and ready for use by simply tapping on the NFC handset.

Product-as-a-Store service

Selinko has just launched a new service that can turn any object into a shop! The function of this service is that people can view or purchase product information only by tapping the service covered on their phone.

Smart refrigerators

Smart refrigerators have recently been designed that people can pay for using NFC technology after removing their desired product.

Stores without vendors

As we said before, NFC technology can be used in a variety of ways in stores, and even if you use it,

you no longer need a vendor, and you can provide customers with different products every hour, every day, every day.

Restaurant without waiters

In a restaurant in the Netherlands,

there’s a tabletop each featuring NFC technology that includes a restaurant menu and table numbers. When customers choose their food from tablets and label them, the order is registered. Technology, customers no longer have to wait for food orders and receive their food sooner.

 Also,

in 5 restaurants in more than 5 cities in France, customers can see other customers’ reviews by scanning the labels in the restaurant.

Smart Breathing Spray

A new NFC-labeled respiratory spray has just been introducing that will show you the steps to use the spray (removable),

audio and video feedback, and age appropriate to use the device,

and people can use the instructions See the spray more clearly.

Smart ball

At the start of World Cup 3, Adidas launched a NFC-enabled soccer ball

that fans of the World Cup could scan through their NFC-enabled handsets

to see the enormous challenges associated with games as well as World Cup content and the ball itself.

the future

In the future, NFC applications will certainly increase;

for example, gift cards may be label or technologies such as NFC-tag identity recognition

and smart ID cards may be enhance.

In the meantime, the technology can help reputable brands better deliver their products to customers. The number of NFC devices around the world is project to increase by 1.2% by next year.

Contextual environments of operating systems are popular among professional users. Here’s how to personalize the Mac OS context.The terminal application is the gateway to the context of macOS .

In this post, you’ll learn how to find apps that are 2-bit.

Before you upgrade your Mac or PC to Catalina’s macOS operating system, which comes out late in the year, it’s best to keep in mind.

If you use 2-bit apps, they won’t run on the new macOS update. When the Catalina version is released late in the year, it will only support 2-bit apps.

That means macOS Mojave is the latest version of MacOS 8.1 that supports 2-bit apps.

Can this change affect your work? Probably not, especially if you often use Apple apps.

Apple has been working on converting its apps to 2-bit versions for more than a decade on one of its support websites.

However, it doesn’t matter whether you use two or two hundred apps, you just need to know which one of them is affected.

Using the method described above, you will find out that out of our hundred apps, five need updating before upgrading to macOS Catalina.

Although none of these apps were so important, the loss of a popular application when upgrading can really worry any user.

If you are using macOS mojave and have applications that are not supported in the new version of this operating system, you must have received pop-up warnings from Apple that they are not optimized for future releases.

These alerts are displayed every 2 days after you open the app. Otherwise, to make sure your favorite app supports the new version of the operating system, you need to do things that are fortunately easy to do.

How to know if apps are 2-bit or 4-bit?

In this tutorial we will be using MacBook Air with macOS version of Sierra (4.3.1); however, MacOSHOE’s MacOS computers and laptops have a similar approach to follow.

On your computer, click on the Apple logo from the top left corner of the screen. Then, from the drop-down menu, click About this Mac.

A new window will now pop up showing your device’s specifications, including production time, processor, RAM, serial number, and more.

What we’re working on is the System Report button at the bottom of the page. Click on it.

Doing so will open another window. On the left side of this window, you will see different categories of hardware and software manufactured by your system, including hardware, network, software, ATA, audio, Bluetooth, camera, and more.

On the right, information about each category is displayed. Drag the left panel down and select Applications under the Software category.

The right pane may be empty for a while, but it will continue to be filled with a list of software installed on the system.

After the software listing is displayed, find the Intel 2-bit column, which is the fifth column from the left.

In this column, the word no is written in front of any software that only supports 2-bit systems.

Click on the Intel 8-bit server to arrange the directory to display 2-bit software.

What if the app is a 4-bit app?

If any of the apps is 2-bit, there is a risk that it will not run on macOS Catalina, but you should not lose hope.

Apple said it is working with developers to prepare them for the change. You can also get in touch with the developer of the app directly and be sure to do so.

Follow these steps to find the best way to get in touch with your app developer:

Launch the application you want.

Once done, click the app name next to the Apple logo in the top left corner of the screen.
In the popup menu, click About.

If you’re lucky enough, you’ll be able to find developer contact information in the popup. If you fail, search the app developer website.

MacOS Catalina arrives later this year, and even if you don’t usually pay much attention to Mac updates, you’ll want to watch for this one. Catalina adds lots of functionality and many important changes to Macs, including the all-new Music, TV and Podcast apps.

There also big changes to photo management, note-taking, accessibility features, screen time management, security,

and a whole lot more. If you want to check it out now, you can even check it out the beta using the developer version before it goes public this summer.

but you can use them in other non-system IOS applications, such as Microsoft Office, iWork, and Adobe CC.

. Just download and install the font you want, then select them in the appropriate apps.
Here’s how to do this.

How to install iPhone and iPad fonts?

First install the iFont application. This app makes installing fonts easy.

Next, download the font you want. You can access free Google fonts using the “Download” tab at the bottom of iFont.

If you do not like the Google fonts, you can find and download any other font from any website.

After downloading the fonts, if the message is displayed, select “Open in iFont”, otherwise choose “Copy to iFont” from the “More” menu to open your font from the sharing menu.

iFont will allow you to access the downloaded file. If you do not want to display images and software licenses, disable the “Associated files” option.

Your selected font will appear in the OTF or TTF format at the top of the page. Choose “Import to iFont” option.

From the bottom of the page, select the “Files” tab. You will see all the fonts you’ve added to the program here. Choose the “Install” option for one of the fonts.

The iPhone will alert you that an app intends to open “Settings” and display a specific setting. This is normal, let’s say “Allow”.

On the “Install Profile” page, click “Install” and enter your password. You will see an alert telling you that there is no electrical signature on it.

Re-install “Install” and then select “Done”.

Now your font is installed and you can use it anywhere. Check out the list of fonts in each of your apps to see your installation font.

If you do not find your font, it may be because this particular application does not have the ability to use custom fonts.

To delete a font in the future, go to the General section of the Settings menu and then log in to Profiles.

Here’s the font you want to delete, and then click the “Remove Profile” button.

Mac and its shortcut keys for different boot situations – Comprehensive Guide

If you intend to run your Mac in recovery mode, or if you want to boot a USB memory stick, or if you are looking for your hardware testing with Apple’s troubleshooting tools, you should know the Mac startup shortcut keys.

These keys can interfere with how the boot process works on your Mac or even how the Mac works after login.

Of course, most of the time, these keys are used only when they are trying to fix your Mac problems….

Startup or boot manager USB: Option key

The Mac Startup Manager or Mac Startup Manager does not boot your default memory.

Instead, you will receive a list of all connected memory devices, including external and USB memory.

This feature is used to test Linux distributions or install Windows from a USB memory device.

Safe Mode: Shift

If you’re having trouble with your Mac or for some reason not booting, Safe Mode (or Safe Boot) forces your computer to load only the required operating system and execute it.

In this case, your startup disk is used to fix the system problems and only the core plugins required will be used.

This will also prevent the implementation of software that is configured for the startup of the operating system; custom fonts will be disabled and many system caches will be erased.

Apple Hardware Test / Apple Troubleshooting: D

Based on your Mac’s life, the name of this feature is either Apple Hardware Test or Apple Diagnostics.

These are tools that can identify your hardware issues so you can decide how to repair or replace your device.

While these tools are looking for hardware problems, but they do not provide much information about them, it’s hard to fix them.

If you are looking for more information, you can use the Apple Service Diagnostics tool.

Alternatively, using the “Option + D” keys, you can enable this experiment via the Internet.

This method works if there is a problem with your hard drive or partition recovery system.

Resetting PRAM or NVRAM: Command + Option + P + R

A non-volatile RAM memory or a non-volatile RAM holds information about the current configuration of your computer.

This information includes date and time, memory space, desktop settings, and more.

Sometimes you may have problems with the sound, mouse scroll, or keyboard that require resetting of the Paramount RAM (RAM) or NVRAM (non-volatile RAM).

Turn off your Mac and hold down the keys above as soon as you turn it on again. Wait until your Mac reboots, then release the keys.

Reset SMC or System Administrator Controller: Shift + Control + Option

The System Manager Controller is a Mac-based chip that runs on the Mac and manages things like fan speed, power management, and more.

Most Macs use the top key for this, but some require battery or power cord.

Recovery Mode: Command + R

Recovery mode is the key to solving many Mac problems through a user-friendly environment. The recovery partition is a separate partition of the Mac OS, through which you can access Disk Utility and fix your disk problems.

You will also be able to use the Terminal and reinstall the Mac OS.

Alternatively, you can also enable the recovery mode by holding down the “Command + Option + R” keys.

In this case, the necessary tools are first downloaded from the Internet. If your recovery partition is damaged, this method can fix your problem.

Disc Mode Objective: T

If you intend to move information from one Mac to another, the target disk mode or “Target Disk” makes it easy for you.

By setting up the Mac in the target disk mode, you can connect it to another Mac and move your files between them.

In other words, this mode turns your Mac into a hard drive interface. To do this, use the appropriate cable. According to Apple, the following cables are appropriate:

Thunderbolt 3 (USB-C): For iMac Pro or iMac 2017, MacBook Pro 2016 and newer.

USB-C: Applies to MacBook 2015 and newer.

Thunderbolt 2

Firewire

Uses USB-A cables to USB-A, Apple-USB-C charging cables or Mini DisplayPort common cables.

Single-player mode: Command + S

Single-User Mode Your Mac enters a text environment with no graphical interface and no partition of your memory by default.

You will only have access to the Unix command line in which you must also use text commands.

This mode allows you to fix problems that prevent your Mac from running. By doing this, you can try to fix your disk problems, transfer information from partition to other partitions or force your disk to open.

For these things, you must master the commands for each one.

Verbose: Command + V mode

The “Verbose” mode (which is literally “bootstrap”) replaces your default Mac interface at startup with a detailed report to know exactly what is happening when you start your system.

This mode does not interfere with things like running Safe Mode, nor does it allow you to enter a single environment such as single-user mode.

The “Verbose” mode is used when your Mac hangs and stops at boot time.

With this feature you can see exactly what’s going on and what prevents the boot process so you can go along the path.

For example, many boot problems are related to third-party third-party plug-ins. The “Verbose” mode can detect the problematic plugin, then you can remove it from Safe Mode and fix your boot problem.

Boot Optical Drive: C

If you’re using an old-fashioned drive that comes with optical drives, you can use a CD or DVD to install a Mac or any other operating system.

Hold down the “C” key when you boot the computer, your Mac will ignore the original startup partition and boot the optical media.

Bringing a Optical Disk: Eject, F12 or Mouse

If a CD or DVD is stuck on your Mac or you want to insert another disk, you can turn on the Mac and immediately hold one of the F12, Eject or Mouse buttons to remove the computer.

Boot the NetBoot service: N

NetBoot allows system administrators to boot the computer through an image on the network.

It’s natural that most home users never need this kind of thing. This feature allows companies to customize the Mac OS based on their needs and create a special image for each user.

Then they can implement these images over the network on the systems so that they do not need to handle each system individually.

Alternatively, you can also use the “Option + N” keys to select the default image so that you do not need to use custom images for any user or hardware.

Login shortcuts in Mac OS

The following combines the behavior of the Mac when logging in.

Disable automatic login: Left Shift

If you set your Mac to automatically login, you can tell it to ignore these settings by holding down the “Left Shift” key after the boot screen (when the white Apple icon appears and a progress bar). To take

By doing this, go to the normal login screen and choose your account. You can also sign in as a guest user.

Avoid running Login or opening windows: Shift

If you want to prevent the logon from running, or do not want to open the previous windows, sign in the “Shift” key after entering the password and selecting the “Log In” option when logging in.

You can use this method if you do not want to open a window from the previous series or intend to prevent the system resources from being occupied during startup.

17 years ago, on April 4, 2001, Apple introduces the first version of the Mac OS X operating system

(the letter X is actually a Roman numeral and equivalent to 10), which was a fundamental change.

The operating system was renowned for its simplicity, apparel beauty, advanced technologies, various applications, security and fast access options.

Features such as Spotlight, iCloud, and so on – have made OS X more attractive to users and experts.

Thanks to the excellent integration of the operating system with Apple’s hardware, users could easily do their work.

OS X quickly and unwantedly became a brand for Apple and the Mac,

and now more than 14 newer versions are being release.

Mac OS became more complete after the release of iOS because

it was inspired by iOS and now the two operating systems are at least as seemingly similar to each other.

In this article,

we want to look at all the versions of the operating system

that were release after 1380 – including the Mojave Edition to be release this year – to see how the Mac OS evolve over time.

Chita or OS X 10

The first version of OS X is known as Cheetah and is the 10th edition.

Chita is a very big update to the classic Mac OS 9 operating system

and is somehow a successor to the classic version.

Chita was introduced at the end of 2000 and during the Macworld Expo event in San Francisco. With the introduction of Chita, Apple also unveiled the Aqua interface, and the news was no longer classic.

In the Aqua interface, the buttons for resizing windows are colored and the icons also look more realistic.

Apple, along with the introduction of various features of Chita, also unveiled the Dock bar, which is one of the key elements in the beauty of the operating system, and continues to be a part of its beauty due to Dock.

A number of modern applications such as Mail, Address Book and TextEdit were introduced during the launch of Chita.

Puma or OS X 10.1

Version 10.1 is known as the OS X called Puma, which was introduced in 2001 during the Macworld Expo event in New York.

Puma was a relatively important update that made it possible to move more quickly between menus and the process of logging in was faster than before.

Some optional settings and configurations, such as the possibility of docking, have also added new menus for controlling volume and battery life.

The iTunes, combined with the Puma version, was integrated with the operating system, which also has the ability to burn CDs and could play DVDs and support cameras and music players.

The DVD player feature in this version of the operating system was call iDVD, which at that time had a lot of performance for users.

Jaguar or OS X 10.2

Although earlier versions of the Wild Cats were using, they never use the names to be marketing until finally the OS X Jaguar was release, and this trend has change.

Jaguar, 2002, was unveil at the Macworld Expo event in New York City. Jaguar was not a revolutionary version, and Apple focusing on updating existing features.

For example, in the Mail app, a feature was add that split spam emails from other emails and put them in a folder call junk.

The iChat app was launch with the Jaguar version as its default, and serves as the default messaging app for users.

 This app was integrating with some features of the AOL Messenger.

In updating Jaguar, the Fender (similar to this PC on Windows computers) was equipped with seamless search capability; OS X 10.2 also made it possible to magnify the display, allowing users to execute various applications using voice commands.

Panther or OS X 10.3

The Panther update was introduced in 2003 during the annual Apple Developers Conference (WWDC).

This update included a new feature called Exposé that allowed users to view all open windows of the operating system, all open windows from a specific application, or files on the desktop in one go.

The iChat AV app was also added to the operating system, which allowed users to make voice and video calls besides text messages.

Apple updated its support for the Microsoft Internet Explorer browser, and instead, Safari was chosen as the default browser.

In Panther update, there was FileCault that could encrypt hard drives with 128-bit keys.

Font Book is integrated as a simple application to the OS so that users can manage all of the fonts in the system.

The feeder also had minor changes and gave users easier access to drives, networks and folders.

Tiger or OS X 10.4

Apple introduced the Tiger update to WWDC in 2004. In this update, an integrated search client called Spotlight, users could easily search through the menu bar, files, emails, contacts, images and apps.

Widgets were added that could provide weather information, flying, and more.

In this update, Safari was equipped with RSS features and iChat could support up to 4 people in group video calls and 10 people in group voice calls.

OS X 10.4 also brought Automator and VoiceOver apps. Automator is an application that automatically performs tasks manually; for example, it can rename a large number of files at the same time or change the size of multiple images simultaneously.

 VoiceOver is an application that provides a platform for doing things.

For example, there are options for zooming, allowing you to control the keyboard and have the ability to write explanations along with English texts on the page.

After Apple switched to the use of Intel X86 processors, OS X Tiger became the first operating system to support Apple-Intel architecture.

Also, up to 30 months after the release of Tiger, a newer update by Apple was not introduced.

Leopard or OS X 10.5

Leopard update is the biggest update released for OS X, which was introduced at WWDC in 2006 and redefined Apple software.

The Leopard interface was completely modern and has a 3D look. Semi-transparent menus, active window shadows, depth-of-the-art elements and high-quality icons are among the hallmarks of this release.

In the update to Leopard, there was a new feature called Stacks, which is a function for grouping and can display files in fan mode (which is the list view, except that it is merely a selection of the best folders or files) or grid on the display dock. Give

The interface of the Finger Navigation section also changed completely. Quick Look was another leopard feature that allowed users to preview items.

 Spaces feature allows users to group different application windows into more than one virtual desktop.

In Leopard’s update, we saw the availability of a backup tool called Time Machine that automatically backed up the files and allowed users to recover deleted files.

Boot Camp, Apple’s software client for native Windows on Mac, was released along with Leopard’s update.

In the same years, Apple unveiled its new MacBook and MacBook Air, which had an integrated aluminum body, and their crackers supporting multiple simultaneous gestures, so Leopard also supported multi-touch gestures, but Apple never maneuvered on the subject.

Snow Leopard or OS X 10.6

The Snow Leopard update was introduce during the 2009 WWDC conference.

Users using the Leopard version could only upgrade to Leopard’s $ 29 for just $ 29.

In this update, all Apple apps were rewrite base on 64-bit code. Grand Central Dispatch (GCD) was introduce along with this update.

GCD was a new way for software developers to develop applications that could be easily implemented on multi-core processors.

 The OpenCL platform for running multi-thread applications was another feature introduce with the Leopard Snooze update.

On OS X 10.6, the features of the previous versions still existed, but thanks to the updates, they now perform better and perform faster.

For example, the process of expelling the disk was quicker, the Time Machine tool could backup very quickly, boosting the operating system and shutting it off faster than before, and even installing the operating system for a shorter time.

Leopard’s update to Snow Leopard was even smaller with more features and only 7GB of disk space.

Apple later introduced the OS Mac OS X 10.6.6 with the introduction of the Mac OS X, allowing the operating system to be installed without using the physical disk.

Line or OS X 10.7

Apple unveiled the Lion-Lion update on a special event called “Back to Mac” or a return to Mac in 1390.

Earlier, Apple had added support for multiple cracked motion gestures to its operating system, but as was said, Apple did not maneuver on this feature and unofficially.

With the introduction of the Lion update, Apple has officially announced the addition of the feature and said that using this feature, the user can do various tasks such as zooming, resizing windows, and so on.

In this version of the Mac OS, users were able to run apps for the first time in fullscreen.

OS X 10.7 has many of the features available on iOS, as well as full support for the Mac OS Store.

Other features of this version of the Mac OS include Resume. This feature allows applications that are accidentally closed to allow them to reopen and continue to work.

Mountain Lion or OS X 10.8

2012 During the WWDC event, Apple officially introduced the Mountain Lion version of the OS X operating system.

With the introduction of this release, Apple removed the Mac word from the beginning of Mac OS X, even the company’s website mentioned OS X alone.

In this release, iCloud has been synchronizing with parts such as email, contacts, reminders, documents and notes on a variety of devices, such as the Mac, iPad, iPhone and iPod touch.

In this release, the inspiration from iVas continuing as the iMessage app was first downloading to Mac.

The Notifications section was a new feature of Apple’s operating system. Users could now be notified instantly of all the events that were happening in various applications.

For example, when receiving a new email or a new message, the relevant notification was showing to the user. With a number of newer updates, the ability to convert voice commands to text was also provide in this version of the Mac OS, and with the addition of a sharing key, the platform was provide for the user, who can easily, with just one click, images, videos, Share files or links using the email app or other messengers.

Facebook and Twitter were installed on OS X 10.8 by default,

so users could send their tweets or Facebook messages without opening their browser.

The AirPlay Mirroring feature, as a new feature, made it possible to dash the Mac Display on Apple TV.

The Game Center could also bring games from iOS to Mac.

Finally,

Gatekeeper protects users against external threats and prevents downloading and installing malware,

instead offering users the option to download and install apps that require them.

Users could upgrade to this Mac OS version at a mere $ 19.99.

Mavericks or OS X 10.9

With the introduction of this version of the Mac operating system in 1392,

the naming tradition based on wild cats was also abandoned,

and Apple preferred to use the name of the famous places in California,

which is the same as the state-owned headquarters of Apple Inc. .

Introducing Mavericks, Apple for the first time brought iBooks from the iPad and Maps from the iPhone to the Mac.

In this way, users could easily send routes from Mac to iPhone and vice versa.

The new tag feature allows users to categorize files with specific tags

and set the importance of labels with default colors.

The Keychain iCloud feature, which was introduced with OS X 10.9,

could encrypt files and allow users to access files when they authenticate the user without having to enter the password.

By doing a series of updates on the Fender,

this important part of the operating system supported a variety of tabs that have many applications for multi-monitor operation simultaneously.

The notifications section also now supports interactive notifications,

which means the user could send a response via notifications without opening the messenger app.

This version of the Mac operating system on the MacBook Pro was equipped with a Retina display, so the size of the operating system icons was smaller on this device. For the first time, Apple has provided the update for free to its users.

Yosemite or OS X 10.10

Apple introduced the Yosemite version of the Mac operating system in 2014,

and its appearance has been modified to match the iOS 7.

With the introduction of Yosemite, Apple officially abandoned its prominent skydiving design,

turning to the use of two-dimensional, modern, semi-transparent flat graphic elements.

Apple has been using skomorphic design for over 10 years,

so changing the appearance of Yosemite is a fundamental change in the Mac OS interface.

Along with the apparent changes,

the default font of the operating system was also changed from Lucida Grande to Neue Helvetica,

and dark and light skins were added to the operating system.

Using Continuity, users could experience the best sync between the iPhone and Mac, and even respond to their calls through the Mac.

Macs could now display SMS messages on the iPhone, and iCloud was responsible for doing so.

Next to the introduction of OS X 10.10,

Handoff was also introduce. This feature provides the user with the ability to cut off work while writing or browsing the Internet on one Apple device,

and will continue to work on another device.

The new Photos app also replaces the old iPhoto app

and collects all the images in the iCloud or iOS device in one place so that the user can easily access them.

In this version of the Mac OS, Mail Drop allows users to upload files up to 5GB safely and do not worry about email client constraints.

Finally, iCloud could support all file formats and allow access to them from any device.

El Capitan or OS X 10.11

The update of El Capitan to Yosemite was less modest. This version of the Mac operating system was introducing in 1394. El Captain had improved on Yosemite’s overall performance and security,

and brought some new features.

Split View was one of these features that could display two windows in full-screen mode.

Mission Control, which was associate with this feature, could display all open windows in one place.

Spatlight was more clever in the El Capitan than ever before, and could show the weather reports, news of the day, sports events, and so on.

 The Maps app has also been improving to show the public transportation of some of America’s cities.

Metal, a new core graphics technology introduced with El Capitan. This new technology allows games and apps to directly access the Mac graphics processor to improve their performance.

El Captain was dramatically better than other versions of Mac, and the user could do his or her routine as quickly as possible without having to observe a particular problem.

With the introduction of the El Capitan update, the font of this operating system was also changing from Neue Helvetica to San Francisco.

Apple used the new font in the IOSUS 9 and WASH-OAS, and eventually brought it to the mac.

Sierra or OS X 10.12

The Sierra update was introduce during the WWDC event in 1395, and the beta version was then distributing to testers and was release to users in the fall of the year.

Sierra brought a host of new features, but most importantly, the presence of Siri’s intelligent voice assistant was in this version of the Mac OS.

Users can now access Siri through the menu bar, anywhere between the Spotlight icons and the Notifications section.

The smart voice assistant can help users search their files through audio commands,

receive useful information such as weather, news, etc., or even search the Internet,

and can also result in results. Search in the Notifications section.

Another change to the Sierra update was the Universal Keyboard. This feature allows the user to start writing text on one of the Apple devices and continue to write on other devices.

 Other features of Sierra include:

ICloud Desktop and Documents app to sync all the data between the Mac and cloud memory, Auto Unlock feature to unlock MacOS account with Apple Watch and Apple’s ability to surf the web.

The Photos app has also been updating and adding to the Memories feature that can collect excerpts of user-select images and videos in a collection.
More than 60 security issues were resolve by offering Sierra update.

Sierra or OS X 10.13

In 1396,

Apple introduced MacOS High Sierra during the annual WWDC event. This version was an update to the Sierra version,

which was again inspiring by the Sierra Nevada Mountains in California.

The Apple File System was add to the Mac in this version to better manage data and improve overall performance and performance. New industrial standards for 4K videos and the HEVC or H.265 codec were also add to the Mac OS.

Metal 2 was also introduce at the same conference to enhance Mac graphics capabilities, and developers can create virtual reality experiences on Mac for the first time.

The Photos app has also been updated to provide users

with a range of advanced image editing tools to make it easier to search through organized images and videos.

Safari became faster in High Sierra and added new security features so that Internet advertising could not monitor user data.

Safari in this version of Mac could prevent the automatic playback of video

and audio files so users can enjoy better web browsing.

Among other features of this release are the improvements to Siri and Spatlight. This update was also free of charge to users.

MoHaWi or OS X 10.14

Apple recently unveiled the latest version of Mac operating system called Mojave.

The most prominent feature of this version is the black shell of the operating system,

which replaces the white appearance of the various components

with a dark shell and gives a very nice appearance to the operating system environment.

Dynamic Desktop or Dynamic Desktop is another new feature of Mojave,

which makes the desktop look a bit different during the day, in the morning, afternoon and evening.

Desktop Stacks is another feature that is adding to the Mac OS.

This feature organizes the MacOS environment by categorizing desktop content based on content type, date, or tags.

The Gallery View feature also features new features that allow the user to view the content in a similar fashion to Photos,

along with the corresponding metadata display on the second side.

According to the new macOS version, the user can rotate the images inside the toolbar, or make initial modifications. Put them on.

 The screen saver has also been featuring in this release,

and now the user can also take screenshots from the operating system environment

in addition to providing screenshots from various sections.

The Continuity feature, which exist in the previous versions, has now become more complete and has been adding a part call Continuity Camera that can share the camera with Mac and vice versa.

 In the Mac OS version of the Mac, the Mac OS also has been updating and has undergone significant changes.

This software store now uses the IUST design elements to integrate with the mobile operating system.

This update is release free of charge this fall but does not support Mac devices that were built before 2012.

Even if you are interested in Microsoft and Windows 10, you can still try and download other operating systems from different corporations.

But what’s the safer and less expensive way to use the virtual machine in the virtual machine? This way you can run macOS in Windows 10.

What files do we need to install a virtual Mac in Windows 10?

Before downloading and installing the essential tools, you need to get started.

Download the latest version of VirtualBox

Download the latest VMware Player

This tutorial is about how to create MacOS virtual machines using both the VirtualBox and the VMware Player.

To start the program, download VirtualBox and VMware Player from the links above.

You also need a copy of MacOS. In this tutorial, we used the Mojave version.

Note that this tutorial is currently only available on computers with Intel processors.

So this tutorial will focus on installing macOS in a virtual machine on Intel hardware.

Download macOS image files

VirtualBox Intel HFS Mojave 10.14.3

• Google Drive
• Mediafire
• Code for VirtualBox

Virtualbox Intel APFS Mojave 10.14.3

• Google Drive
• Media Fire
• Code for VirtualBox

VMware Player Intel APFS Mojave 10.14.3

• Google Drive
• Media Fire

VMware Player Patch Tool

(The difference is Intel HFS and Intel APFS in the file system type. APFS is the most recent file system introduced in 2017)

After downloading the files, right-click on them and unzip them.

For example, you can unzip files using the free zip file (7Zip) to get the file with the VMDK extension. The original file we use to build the virtual machine.

How to create a macOS virtual machine with VirtualBox?

After opening VirtualBox, select the NEW option. Type in the name of the macos so that VirtualBox automatically detects the desired attributes.

Just note the version of the latest available version of Apple’s operating system.

Then, set the RAM value of the macOS virtual machine. The minimum amount of RAM you choose is 4 GB, but as much as possible, you can set the amount of RAM more.

Remember, you can not allocate more RAM than your original system to a virtual machine, and it is necessary to split the RAM so that the original system that is running the virtual machine is not in trouble.

Finally, select the “Use a virtual virtual hard disk” option from the hard disk, and then enter the folder where you left the VMDK file in the pre-compressed state.

Virtual machine settings to run macOS Mojave

Before starting your virtual machine, you need to have several different settings on it.

Right-click on the virtual machine, and then select the Settings option.

Enter the System and then disable Floppy from the boot order section. Then check that the chipset’s settings are on the ICH9 option.

Now enter the Processor and assign the dual core to the virtual machine like the following image.

If you use a powerful processor like the core i7, you can allocate more cores to the virtual machine. At the end, do not forget Enable PAE / NX option.

In the Display section, put the Video Memory settings on 128MB, and finally, in the Storage area, make sure you enable the Use Host I / O Cache option.

Command line commands to run macos on a virtual machine

Unfortunately, VirtualBox in the current configuration can not run the macOS image file. There is, of course, no place to worry about, since this can be solved with a few lines of code.

First, close the VirtualBox completely. Then, in the Windows Search section, search for 10 cmd and execute it as Run as Administrator.

The first code you should enter after cmd is as follows.

cd "C:\Program Files\Oracle\VirtualBox\"

Then enter the following lines lines.

VBoxManage.exe modifyvm "macos" --cpuidset 00000001 000106e5 00100800 0098e3fd bfebfbff

VBoxManage setextradata "macos" "VBoxInternal/Devices/efi/0/Config/DmiSystemProduct" "iMac11,3"

VBoxManage setextradata "macos" "VBoxInternal/Devices/efi/0/Config/DmiSystemVersion" "1.0"

VBoxManage setextradata "macos" "VBoxInternal/Devices/efi/0/Config/DmiBoardProduct" "Iloveapple"

VBoxManage setextradata "macos" "VBoxInternal/Devices/smc/0/Config/DeviceKey" "ourhardworkbythesewordsguardedpleasedontsteal(c)AppleComputerInc"

VBoxManage setextradata "macos" "VBoxInternal/Devices/smc/0/Config/GetKeyFromRealSMC" 1

And finally, after seeing a result like the image above, you can close the cmd.

Boot macOS Mojave in the virtual machine

Now run VirtualBox again and start the virtual machine you’ve already built.

After starting long notes, they appear on the page, and then a gray screen appears for one or two minutes. Then you will see the macOS welcome page.

Now you can make your own settings for the upgrade of the operating system.

Important explanation: After you get to the Welcome page, it’s best to take a snapshot of this page so that you do not get back to the gray screen in the event of a problem running the operating system or the wrong settings.

And after installing and upgrading the operating system, take another snapshot by going straight to the same section. To capture snapshot in a virtual machine, log in:

Machine > Take Snapshot

Mouse and keyboard do not work?

If the mouse and keyboard did not work for you after the above steps, download the virtual machine plug-in.

After installing the plugin, open the virtual machine. Select the USB option from the Settings section, and then select the USB 3.0 (xHCI) Controller option and hit the ok button. Use mouse and keyboard now without problems.

Make macOS Mojave on VMware Workstation Player
If you prefer VMware to VirtualBox, you can run a virtual machine with some modifications in VMware.

 Before we create the virtual machine, we must first run the patched files.

To start patching from the download list, download the VMware Player’s Intel APFS Mojave 10.14.3 VMware Player Patch Tool in the first part of the contract text.

Then go to the download location and unzip the file. Then transfer the patch file to the folder where VMware is installed.

Close VMware software completely and click on the right patch file and select Run as Administrator.

Then a window opens and the patch operation starts. When the patch is complete, open VMware.

Note that if you encounter a File not Found message, it’s because the folder where you copied the patch file is not related to the original VMware folder. (VMware is installed by default on drive C)

Build macOS Mojave virtual machine in VMware

After you open VMware, select Create a New Virtual Machine, and then select I’ll install the operating system later. Now opt for the Apple Mac OS X version.

After choosing this option, you must see Version to macOS 10.14.

If you see a copy other than the above in the virtual machine, it means that the patch has not been well-executed.

Now you should choose a name for the virtual machine. Our offer is macOS. After selecting the name, save a copy of the installation path of the virtual machine, because in the next steps we need to do some editing on it.

In the next step, after setting the virtual hard disk, make sure to enable Store virtual disk as a single file. Note that, after completing the settings for this step, do not run the virtual machine yet.

Edit macOS settings in the virtual machine

Before installing a virtual machine, you must specify the hardware specification as well as specify the path to the macOS VMDK file.

On the VMware home page, right-click on the name of the virtual machine and set up the hardware settings, such as the settings we provided in VirtualBox.

It’s best to get a minimum of 4 gigabytes of RAM. In the Processors section, set the kernel settings to the two.

Now enter the Hard Disk (SATA) and clean the hard drive that the virtual machine has built.

Then select Add> Hard Disk> SATA (Recommended)> Use an existing disk. Select the virtual Mac OS file that is marked with the VMDK extension.

Edit VMX file

Before you run the last step, open the path you have already saved and make some changes to it.

The default path is as follows (for convenience you can see the path you saved in the previous step)

C:\Users\YOURNAME\Documents\Virtual Machines\YOUR MAC OS X FOLDER


When you enter the folder you are looking for, you need to find the macOS.vmx file and open it with a notepad. Go to the bottom of the file and type the following command at the end of the page and then save the file.

smc.version = "0

Install Install VMware Tools on the Virtual Machine

If you remember, there was a file called VMware patch tool in the download list, which is an extension for the correct functionality of the mouse and keyboard and graphical settings.

To enable this plugin, follow these steps:

Player> Removable Devices> CD / DVD (SATA)> Settings

Now use the ISO ISO image file to select the VM Tool New.ISO you previously downloaded and then click OK.

Now on your desktop you will see an icon called VMware Tools drive. Double-click on it, then select Install VMware Tools.

You will probably receive several security messages at the time of installation; you must go to the following to delete these messages:

Open Security Preferences> Allow

Now save all the changes and run the virtual machine.

probable problems

You might have problems installing and running Mac OS on your virtual machine.

If the virtual machine is not executed, you may need to re-check the settings and patch files.
If you encounter the message “Mac OS X is not supported with binary translation”.

 You must enable the virtualization option in the BIOS / UEFI Settings section.

If you run VMware Player unrecoverable error: (vcpu-0) at runtime, you should check if the macOS.vmx file has been edited well.

Finally, it should be noted that the use of any operating system in the machine under any circumstances can not convey the actual experience of working with that operating system on the actual hardware to the user.

Modern operating systems provide easy-to-install software for users. These methods include installation packages or commands that install different software components in one go.

Do you know when running these files or installation commands exactly what happens in the background of the operating system?

In this article, we’re going to look at how to install software on three major desktop operating systems: Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Installation Techniques

There are several ways to install and run new software on the computer, which are in the order of complexity:

Software compilation, which is most commonly used by professional users, and is referred to as the program creation process through its source code.

Software Archives, which is called open files like ZIP and software execution.

Installer Packages are referred to as the installer installation process.

Software Managers / Stores, which refers to the choice of the software you are looking for from an easy-to-use interface, such as what happens when you install software from a computer program.

In this article, we will focus more on the installation package, because the store / software manager rely on the same way and use the same packages in the operating system background.

Looking at the current operating systems, Windows, Mac, and Linux, we’ll outline how to create these packages.

In this article, we’ll look at what’s going on when installing and running these packages.

Windows

In Windows, users usually encounter two software installation packages; the first category is called executable files (EXEs) that are able to copy files at the desired location and make changes to the Windows registry.

To the second kind, MSI installation packages are said to be able to provide other standards, such as software uninstall, in addition to the features of EXE files.

You can use the 7-Zip software to view the archive content of the EXE and MSI installation files.

For example, if we look at our 7-Zip installation file using this software, different files are visible.

These files are not foldered in the installation file, and software developers refer each file to a specific directory for installation.

Most of these files are copied to the default Windows installation location (C: \ Program Files \ program name or C: \ Program Files (x86) \ your new app).

Software developers can customize the installation process and specify its details using a professional tool such as InstallShield software.

For example, developers are able to specify the version of Windows where software is installed on it, create a shortcut for software in the start menu or desktop and record user information such as name, address, and so on.

In the sample project shown in the screenshot below, you will see a page of InstallShield software that displays the settings for updating or creating a new record in the Windows registry.

InstallShield software stores the files and other installation settings in a file called setup.exe.

By opening this file with the 7-Zip software, a MSI installation file is visible, which performs the installation process similar to that familiar to most users.

Let’s look at the details of the software installation process in Windows.

The installation process in Windows

The Installer on Windows installs the following steps, and the steps are related to the settings applied by the software developers:

Each installer may include archives or other installation files such as MSI or CAB. In the first step, the installer copies all content locally.

In the next step, Installer examines all the requirements that the installation and execution process depends on.

If any of these essentials are not available, the installer will download them or, if this is not possible, issue an error message to the user.

If the installation process requires a specific program that is not available, then that program will be installed first and then the original installation process will begin.

These include the installation of the .NET Framework. Before installing some programs.

Then the installer attempts to copy the software files in their designated locations.

At this point, if the Installer developers consider shortcuts for their software, the shortcut will be created. The shortcut file references the user’s command to execute the application to the program’s main executable file.

 This step can be personalized and changed during installation.

If there is a need for a change in the Windows Registry, then changes are required.

At the final installation stage, the user may be asked to enter information such as the name or website address.

All of these steps in the process of installing software on the Windows operating system may seem complicated compared to the installation process in the next operating system.

macOS

The software installation process in Windows involves lots of steps in the operating system background. On the contrary, installing macOS software usually involves downloading the program, opening the DMG file or Apple Disk Image, and going through a few simple steps.

Even in some cases, the installation file, Drag and Drop, and install the program are very easy for users.

In these files, the user usually encounters Drag here. We will look at the macOS app installer and PKG installation files.

Installation package structure in macOS

The installation process of the software using the APP installation file is much simpler than the one in Windows; first, the APP file is in fact a standard folder.

The only difference that exists in this file is the APP extension. This file is. If this file is downloading on Windows, users will see it as a regular Windows folder.

The second reason is that the APP file includes all the essentials and stuff that an application needs to run, and no longer has to worry about incomplete files or the download process before installing the program.

These files contain three essential parts in the installation folder:

The Info.plist file that contains the program metadata, such as name, language, version number, etc.

The MacOS directory that contains the program’s main files.

The resource directory, which contains items such as the main application icon and so on
The app needs them to run.

Other optional folders may also be find in these files, and we’ll list some of them below.

The Frameworks folder is a public folder that some programs need to function, or plug-ins that include features of the program that do not require separate execution, as well as SharedSupport, which includes sub-data such as templates.

Unlike APP files, the PKG installation file in MacOS has the same installation process as the Unix-based Windows.

You can view the contents of the PKG file compressed in xar format using the 7-Zip software.

Inside this file there are one or more original files in the archives. To remove PKG file content, the following command is used in the Mac or Linux Terminal.

Cpio is an archive and program format for making changes to archive files. After executing this command, the user will be able to view the directory, similar to what is common in Unix.

Contrary to popular belief, it is possible to install Linux on Mac laptops. Although this is not very easy, it’s easier than ever before with the new Linux support for Apple hardware.

Of course, it should be noted that only the main Linux operating systems support Mac products. So if someone wants to change their Mac operating system to Linux, they have to choose one from the Ubuntu Linux, Fedora, OpenSUSE and Debian options.

 However, it is possible to install several Ubuntu Linux sub-branches like Elementary OS or Linux Mint on Macs.

The reason why someone has to choose one to change their Mac operating system to Linux is only one of these options. It’s quite clear that Linux distributions have been working on more and more Mac hardware compatibility with Linux, which has not happened in other Linux variants. .

Linux Ubuntu up to date has the best compatibility with Macs, so in the preparation of this article, the installation of this distribution is brought.

Generally, using other major Linux distributions except for Ubuntu may be a bit risky.

Creating bootable  flash

The most important job of installing a Linux on any computer is to provide a bootable USB flash drive.

This is more necessary for the newer models of Apple laptops, because the new MacBook systems do not have a DVD driver. Initially, use the Disk Utility to find and then format your USB driver.

Do not forget to do this. Because not completely removing the contents of the flash may affect the USB boot in Macs. When you’re sure your flash memory is empty, the time has come for the next step.

 Download the latest version of Etcher software (a new software that lets you prepare bootable discs) for Mac OS.

Install the Apple Disk Image (DMG) file and then install the Etcher software installation process. Once the installation process is complete, plug in a flash to your laptop and then run the Etcher software.

While the Etcher software is running and the flash drive is connected to the laptop, download the latest version of Ubuntu Linux.

 Once downloaded, go back to the Etcher software and select the Select Image option.

Find your Ubuntu Linux ISO file on your Mac computer and select it to run by Etcher software.

Let the ISO file be fully loaded by the software. When everything is over, press Flash in the Etcher software to get your bootable USB ready.

Partitioning

Because of the existence of files (APf (Apple File System, Mac OS), you can not boot Ubuntu Linux with automated detection methods, unlike always and just like when you booted a boot driver flash, this time, you need to do all the work in the form Do manually.

Run Disk Utility on your Mac and then select View. Then click on the Show All Devices button to show all the hard drives on the Mac. Double click on the hard drive you want.

Then click the Partition button to bring up the Apple File System Space Sharing menu. In this menu, press Partition to give you permission to classify your Mac hard drive.

In the partitioning section, click the plus (+) button to create a new partition. The minimum available space on this new partition should be 16 GB.

Make sure the format of this partition is on the (MS-DOS) option (FAT). Do not worry about formatting this option, since the partition created will change format later.

After creating a new Ubuntu Linux special partition, press the plus (+) button again and create a new partition (MS-DOS) (FAT).

This time, select the word SWAP as its name and select the space on it exactly as your RAM (RAM) size on your Mac.

Once you’ve finished all the partitioning settings, click Apply on the Disk Utility to apply new changes.

Re-install the flash drive containing Ubuntu’s bootable boot version to the laptop and re-install it. While pressing the Mac OS, press one of the option buttons.

Pressing the option button allows you to select the drive you want. This drive name is EFI Boot.

Install Linux on Mac OS

Partitioning in Mac OS is the hardest thing to do. After completing this step, the only thing that remains to be done is by installing Ubuntu Linux.

The installation process of this Linux is very easy and can be done easily. To get started, select Install Ubuntu in the menu that opens.

The next steps in installing Ubuntu Linux on the Mac OS are as follows:

step one

Select Normal Installation from the setup window. Make sure you select the install third party option for your important operating system drivers.

The second step

Let Ubuntu install Mac OS on your computer. After completing this step, choose something else.

Step Three

Selecting something else allows you to access the partition menu. In this menu, click on the Ubuntu Fat32 partition to darken it.

Do not forget that the Ubuntu operating system uses a megabyte unit instead of GIGABYTE to display this partition in which case it should be converted to MB in order to achieve the desired partition size.

When you select the Ubuntu FAT option, click the change button to open the partition menu.

Insert the menu for Use as on the Ext4 option and then tick the format format option. In the Mount point, type slash (/).

Step Four

Find the second FAT partition. In the partitioning step, you have named it SWAP. Double-click on it and fill in the option, and then press the change button.

Under the Use as menu, look for the swap area option and select it, then press OK.

Step Five

Go to the bottom of the screen and set up the Device for boot loader option on the main Ubuntu partition.

If you are not sure what the name of the main Ubuntu partition is, go back to the partition menu and enter the name in front of the slash character in the boot boot screen.

The sixth step

Now click Install Now to begin Ubuntu Linux installation process. Then select your time zone, then specify a username and password for Ubuntu Linux.
Finally, make other basic settings after installing a new operating system.

Step 7

Mac OS reboot, this time will be loaded into Ubuntu Linux instead of macOS.

Do not forget, whenever you’re looking for a Mac OS X, you can easily get Ubuntu Linux skins into Mac OS.

Microsoft Windows, various distributions of Linux or Mac OS. No matter what system you use, you’ve probably heard about your operating system text environment and you may have used it.

Maybe you think that MACVAS is an intuitive operating system and there is no particular need to learn text commands; why should I learn Unix commands?

There are plenty of unix-based free and open source applications that will no longer require cost-effective peer-to-peer sharing and cost savings.

When you encounter problems with Spitlight, you can use Unix search tools.

You can automatically manage your files, folders and archives. To do this, just set up a Cron Job.

Text commands provide lower level access and more control over the system. You can increase the productivity of your system using text commands.

What is a Cheat Sheet?

It is difficult to mark all the commands in a text or programming language even for programmers and experienced users.

Therefore, there are cheat sheets; a list of all the commands that come to your aid in the time of oblivion.

You can find the Terminal application from Applications> Utilities or by searching it in Spotlight.

The next step is to customize the terminal

In this article, many commands are mentioned. Once you have mastered these orders, it’s time to personalize your terminal. In another article, this issue will be dealt with.

What is your opinion about these orders? Do you use them? What is the text environment more than the graphical environment?

as far as features are concerned. Office exists on other platforms too, like the Mac—but those versions are missing some products and features.

Microsoft recently announced a big update to Office 2016 for Mac. Check out that link for a detailed list of updates, but the big stuff includes bringing some long overdue features to the macOS version,

like collaborative real-time editing, automatic saving of documents stored in the cloud, and Google Calendar and Contacts support in Outlook (finally). That said,

there are still features (and entire apps) that you might miss out on if you’re working with the Mac version.

If you’re switching between Windows and Mac (maybe using one at the office and one at home),

or maybe thinking of moving from Windows to Mac,

it’s worth comparing the available features in the two versions. The big question is do you need to install Windows on your Mac using Boot Camp or Parallels just so that you can run the Windows version of Office,

or can you get by with just buying the Mac version (or, better, using one of the installations that comes with your Office 365 subscription)?

What Products Are Missing from the Microsoft Office Mac Suite?

Microsoft sells Office for Windows in various editions. Almost all editions come with Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote. Depending on the edition you buy, you might also get apps like Outlook, Publisher, and Access.

If you’re using a Mac, though, there are couple of Office apps (and Office-related apps) that you just can’t get:

• Publisher: Publisher is an entry-level desktop publishing app, aimed mostly at home users. There’s no Mac version. While you can easily find comparable apps for macOS, it’s unlikely you’ll be able to bring your Publisher files from the Windows version across very well—at least not without having to work them back into shape.
• Access: Access is a relational database management system that comes with the Professional editions of Office for Windows. You can’t get Access on the Mac, so if you (or your company) works with Access databases, you’re out of luck.

And while we’re on the subject, there are also a couple of higher end “Office-adjacent” apps that aren’t available on macOS:

• Visio: Visio is a diagramming and vector graphics app that lets you visualize complex information in the form of diagrams, graphs, flowcharts, and other forms. There’s no Mac version, so if you need it for work, you’ll need access to Windows.
• Project: Project is a project management app that hooks into a company’s Outlook and Exchange Server setup. It lets project managers develop project schedules, create and assign tasks and resources, and manage it all with real-time input from people’s calendars. There’s no Mac version.

If you really need any of the specific apps we’ve listed here, you’re going to need run Windows and the Windows version of Office.

What Features Are Missing from the Mac Versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook, and OneNote?

So what about the core Office apps that are available on the Mac? While there are a number of very small features missing (stuff that affects very few people), most of the features you find in the Windows versions are present in the macOS versions. Here are the main things you’ll miss out on, though.

Suite-Wide

There are a couple of fairly big features that, while not missing entirely from the Office suite for Mac, are not quite up to their Windows counterparts:

• Visual Basic: Visual Basic integration lets you record and use macros to automate tasksin your Office documents. While macro support is included in Office on macOS, that support is not quite as fully featured as it is in the Windows version. If you make extensive use of macros, or use complicated macros, you should expect that some won’t work.
• SharePoint Integration: SharePoint is an intranet product used to share files, distribute news, and streamline collaboration on projects. If you’re using a Mac and connecting to your company’s SharePoint servers, you might find that some aspects of SharePoint are not as well-supported as they are in the Windows version of Office.

There are, of course, some other missing suite-wide features, but they really pertain to installations that are part of a company network. For example, roaming (the ability to use Office on different computers and have your configuration follow you) is not available for macOS. However, if your system is part of a company network, these things have likely been thought out in advance.

Word

Key features of Word that are missing from the macOS version include:

• Open and Repair: While the Mac version of Word can attempt to automatically repair a corrupted document, it doesn’t have the specific Open and Repair command featured in the Windows version. This makes it harder to recover files that Word might not recognize as Word documents.
• Embed Fonts: When you embed fonts in a document, they are included in the Word file. That way, when someone else opens the file, it displays correctly even if they haven’t installed the fonts you used. You cannot embed fonts in the Mac version of Word.
• Digital Ink: This feature provides freestyle drawing tools that you can use to draw, write, or highlight areas on your document. It’s not available on the Mac version.
• Document Inspector: The Document Inspector scans your Word document and removes hidden data and personal information, making it safer to share documents with others. This feature is missing from the Mac version.

Excel

Fortunately, the disparity between the Windows and Mac versions of Excel are minimal. Both versions support all the major features. Here are a couple things to note, though:

• PivotCharts: While the Mac version of Excel fully supports PivotTables, its support for PivotCharts (charts derived from PivotTables) has always been lacking. The January 2018 update to Office 2016 for macOS does bring the Mac version’s support of PivotCharts more in line with the Windows versions, but you may still find some charting abilities missing.
• Built-In Database Connectivity: Excel for macOS doesn’t support the built-in database connectivity options that the Windows version does.

These are some pretty “power user” features, so it’s likely you won’t miss them much.

PowerPoint

The Windows and Mac versions of PowerPoint are also mostly in parity. That said, there is one feature worth noting that’s missing on the macOS side of things: video and animation triggers. These triggers let you make an animation effect begin playing when you click the object being animated, or automatically at the beginning of an audio or video clip.

Note that the Mac version does feature all the same animations, and does let you trigger animations with a general click or by setting a timer. It just doesn’t include the advanced triggers that the Windows version does.

Outlook

Most of the Outlook features missing from the Mac version have to do with advanced features you see when connected to an Exchange server.

These include things like access to public calendars, distribution lists,

retention and compliance features, receipt tracking, and various social features like voting buttons.

There are also a few other missing features worth noting:

• Save As for Emails: In the Windows version of Outlook, you have access to a Save As command for emails that lets you save them as messages, PDFs, or whatever outside the Outlook message database. You can’t do that in the Mac version.
• Word as an Email Editor: The Windows version lets you use Word as your email editor, granting full access to Word features like formatting and autocorrect. The Mac version does not.
• Side-by-Side Calendars: In Windows, you can view two calendars side by side. In macOS, you can’t.

That isn’t a lot of missing features (unless you’re part of an Exchange-based organization),

but how important they are depends on you. And,

as we mentioned before, the newest update to Office 2016 for macOS now brings support for Google Calendar and Contacts—a pretty big missing feature for lots of people.

OneNote

The basic functionality of OneNote is present in both the Windows and Mac versions (and, in the mobile versions, for that matter), but there are still a few differences:

• Extensible: The Windows version is extensible, providing an API that allows for add-ins and some advanced features. The Mac version does not include this extensibility.
• Linking and Embedding: The Windows version of OneNote is stronger when it comes to embedding and linking files. For example, in the Windows version, you could embed an Excel file. Clicking on that Excel file in OneNote opens a full, editable version of the file in Excel. On the Mac version, you can only open a read-only copy of embedded files.
• Versioning: The Windows version maintains previous versions of tabs that have changed. The Mac version does not.
• More Searchable: The Windows version lets you search handwritten text, as well as audio and video recordings. This feature is not available in the Mac version.

If you’re not using any of these features, then you’d be fine using the Mac version of OneNote.
