Of course, you can do this in Finder but you have to have two folders open, or open in tabs in one window, or drag-and-drop from one onto another and wait for that somewhat off-putting springload feature to open that, and then perhaps several others in turn, which can be tedious, not to mention confusing when you let go at the wrong instant.īuttons along the top could do with a little work.

The paid upgrade to Pro adds power user features including a process viewer with one-button access (sure, every Mac can do this via Activity Monitor, which is already in your Utilities folder in Applications), archive compression and extraction, a built-in FTP manager, and direct access to Dropbox accounts, MTP, or even iOS devices (if they’re connected by cable). The free version works with local and network drives and supports search, preview and the ability to rename files during copy and move, which you cannot do with Finder. So, what is it?

Therefore, in some ways I was not well qualified to talk about Commander One, since I didn’t really know what ‘dual-pane file managers’ were and why Windows users like them so much. We in the Apple world have always called these people ‘Switchers’, and although I’ve never used a PC except in the library, I’ve had to learn a few PC-like things just so I know what to point out to those people who are changing to Mac and are feeling a little lost. So while people are ditching their PCs, they’re buying Macs in seemingly ever-increasing numbers.

As we explained earlier however, the downside to that is you have to manually connect and disconnect each time you want to use the keyboard with another device.

If you look on Amazon for Bluetooth keyboards, many can be found for around $20.

The biggest caveat with Typeeto is that it costs $12.99. All this does is change how the screen overlay appears.
