Introduction to Pro Tips for Apple Devices

Hi there! Welcome to the Pro Tips for Apple Devices course. My name is Paul, and I will be taking you through this course to learn all about different tips and tricks for using your Apple Device. Before you get started, read through this quick introduction.

If you own an Apple device, you have probably noticed that they are designed a little differently than other devices. That is why we want to show you some cool tricks when using an iMac, MacBook, iPad and iPhone. During this course we will show you how to use your Magic Mouse, an Apple keyboard, a trackpad, and how to use your iPad and iPhone to complete easy tasks while introducing you to some hidden features that you may not know about. And if you don’t yet own one of these devices but are interested in them, we have got you covered! We will briefly introduce each device and explain what it is and what it is used for.
