System Preferences, a built-in macOS application analogous to Settings on the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad, lets you customize the Mac to your liking.
You can, for example, adjust the size and location of the Dock, change your desktop background, set your computer’s clock to a different time zone, add or remove user accounts, dive deep into network settings and much more.
Whenever you feel like making changes to your Mac's settings, System Preferences is the one app you're most likely going to use. Despite it being one of the most-frequently used applications on the Mac, some folks are unaware of its less-visible features designed to make finding the right setting a breeze.
In this tutorial, you will learn about the most important System Preferences shortcuts and how you can leverage them to make the most from the app.
