Have you ever wondered what is taking up all the space on your hard drive? With GrandPerspective you can visually find and delete those big (and small) files you forgot about, and clear up a bunch of free space on your drive!

We also teach about Force Quit Applications, which is the Mac equivalent of the Windows Task Manager, useful for exiting out of a hung application.

In Power User Training we discuss the differences between lossy and lossless codecs, and examine the MP3, AAC, and Apple Losssless (ALAC) audio file formats.

Mac App Guide is a weekly video podcast. Visit http://macappguide.com for more information, complete show notes, and to subscribe for free!

  • honestly, power user guide is just boring to watch...

    try finding either another way of presenting it, instead of plain text being read out... I could just google for that and read it myself...

    it's a good idea though, but I think you should find another way to present it...

    for example, why not actually showing us differences in file formats? take a song, then convert it to MP3 and FLAC and show us the size difference, and maybe even sound quality...

  • Thanks for the suggestions

see all
