3 Tips To Organize Files On Your Mac
Finder Tags — Use Them
We all have a “friend” that stores all their files on their desktop.
“I have a system — it works for me,” they say.
It doesn’t work for them.
These are the same people who probably have thousands of unread emails, and ask you to email Word docs back and forth to each other so you can each make changes. Yeah — they still exist.
If this is you, I’m sorry* for calling you out. You will benefit greatly from reading on if you’re a Mac user. In fact, if this is you, you can blow up your entire file management “system” and adopt the one I’m about to propose. It’s simple.
If you have a “friend” as described in the above, this article can help you too, especially when I go into detail on how I use this system with my cloud services synced to my Mac. This article is actually best for describing just that — how to manage your Word Docs, Google Docs, mind maps, Slides, pdfs, Keynote presentations, across all of the associated cloud services.
This article will make you a lean, mean, Mac OS productive machine. Or, at very least, organizing your files won’t get in the way of you being productive moving forward if you adopt the system.
