This is great when you want to resize images to specific settings, scale them to a different size, or any other task you can create an Automator action for. These are fantastic, as you can build your own such actions in Automator and then have them easily available and usable in a couple of clicks - right from the Finder. It also unlocks what for me are the gold dust in the new Finder: Quick Actions. The Preview Pane (Command-Shift-P), lets you take a look at all the metadata for files and lets you to edit them directly in Finder. The revamped Finder and its Preview Pane ( Command-Shift-P), lets you take a look at all the metadata for files and it lets you rotate images, combine files into a PDF, trim video, and more with no need to open an application.

With an eye to a more visual Mac user experience, there are three key Finder enhancements: Gallery View, Quick Actions, and the new Preview Pane. You must remain disciplined in terms of tidying up stuff you don’t need. My only real problem is that Stacks makes me less likely to tidy the contents of my Desktop, which means my iCloud storage slowly gets eaten up. It is so much easier than leaving files festooned fiercely across your Desktop.

Overall impression: I’m finding Stacks to be a great way to work. What does this mean? It means getting to the file you need is as easy as swiping out with four fingers on the trackpad and a tap or two on the relevant Stack. You can double-click to open a file, or drag it directly into an app or document. On the trackpad, use two fingers to scrub or swipe through thumbnails of files in a stack. You can also scrub through Stacks to flip through thumbnails of the files inside. To open a stack, just click it and its files spread out neatly on the desktop. If you use tags (and you really, really should), Mojave is even more powerful, as it’s so incredibly easy to create items for use across multiple projects, each of which can be found by project tag directly from your Desktop. I’m an immediate convert to this feature because it makes it so much easier to maintain a tidy Desktop. You can also choose to organize your stacks by date or by tags. Stacks will automatically collect files into groups based on file type, like images, presentations, PDFs and text documents. There was cheering, too, when Apple introduced Stacks. I have to confess that I take childish delight in switching between modes just to see the effect - I find it a remarkably effective way of ensuring I continue to miss important deadlines. Overall impression: Dark Mode looks great. (Touch Bar users can even create a button to keep there.) While it is easy to toggle between Light and Dark Mode in System Preferences>General, I found it even more effective to create a small Automator application to switch between these modes that I keep available in my Dock. I have to say that I really enjoy using this mode for research, editing images or exploring content, but I’m less enamoured with it when I am working in Word or Mail. I heard the applause when Apple introduced Dark Mode in Mojave at WWDC 2018.

Some readers may want to read my enterprise guide to upgrading to macOS Mojave here. You may see some short-term sluggishness while the OS moves into your system, this is normal and usually passes quickly - see it as the hardware/software equivalent of rearranging furniture and unpacking the boxes when you move house.

Once you do upgrade, make sure to visit the App Store to upgrade your applications. IDG Before you upgradeĭon’t just rush into the upgrade always back up your system first.

Not every feature made it into this review. I’ve looked at each one of the new features in a little more depth below. There’s a lot to be said for the flagship features within this OS:

#IBETTERCHARGE MOJAVE INSTALL#

This is a good upgrade and (assuming no unexpected disasters), I see no reaon not to install it. It seems quite clear that Apple’s focus on making existing features work better across its platforms is an investment that benefits us all. I’ve been impressed at how the OS seems so much speedier in use.
