Lesson 19 Flashcards
Manage Documents
What identifies the app that should open when you double-click a document in macOS?
macOS Mojave uses a document filename extension to determine the document type. The Launch Services process maintains a database of installed apps and the document types that they can open.
How do you engage Quick Look? Which apps support it?
You engage Quick Look by pressing the Space bar when a document is selected. Apps that support Quick Look include the Finder, Time Machine, Mail, and most open-and-save browser dialogs.
What technology enables Quick Look to preview so many file types?
Quick Look uses plug-ins that give it the capability to preview documents. These plug-ins live in Quick Look folders in any Library folder on macOS Mojave.
What are the built-in Quick Actions available in the Finder?
Rotate an image or movie
Mark up a doc or image
Trim a movie or audio file
Customize
What’s Autosave? How can you identify an app that supports Autosave?
Automatically save changes to users’ documents (Mojave compatible). Apps that support Autosave feature a Duplicate, Rename, or Move To command in the File menu.
How deep is the version history of a file that you share through email?
Documents sent through email or otherwise copied to a shared location don’t retain any version history.
Which apps can manage document-locking?
Any app that supports Autosave and the Finder can manage document locking.
Where should you adjust Autosave and Resume options? How should you disable Autosave?
From General Preferences, you can perform these actions:
Deselect “Close windows when quitting an application.”
Select “Ask to keep changes when closing documents” to disable the Autosave feature for any app that supports it.
If you have iCloud Desktop & Documents enabled on one Mac and you enable it for another Mac, what happens to the user’s Desktop & Documents folders?
the Desktop & Documents content from those Mac computers is moved into subfolders inside the iCloud Desktop & Documents folders.
What happens to the user’s Desktop & Documents folders if you disable iCloud Desktop & Documents?
The items are moved into a subfolder within iCloud Drive, and the local Desktop and Documents folders are created as new empty folders for the local user to manually copy their files to the new (empty) Desktop & Documents folders.
What four Recommendations does Storage Management offer you for optimizing storage?
Store in iCloud—Store all files, photos and messages in iCloud and keep only recent files and optimized photos in local storage.
Optimize Storage—Enable the removal of watched movies and TV shows in iTunes.
Empty Trash Automatically—Automatically erase items that have been in the Trash for more than 30 days.
Reduce Clutter—Sort through documents and other content stored on your Mac and delete what is no longer needed.
