MACOS HISTORY

It is not saying that the S.O that powers computers is Apple which is called MacOS. They also did
not say that we were so communicating that if our relatives have not heard or read of the S.O of
Apple, and so telling us that the first version that was released in 1984 that completely changed
the computer industry. Something similar as the Apple smartphone, the history of MacOS covers
several history, the most important thing is that it results in S.O and that it is very different from
today or 30 years ago.

In this video we are going to see how to explore the biggest transformation of MacOS, this history
that we are going to see of MacOS goes back to 1984, when Apple showed the Macintosh. This is
the first commercial computer to feature a graphical user interface and a mouse, making the
machines much easier to use, and therefore more accessible to non-technical users.

Previously, a computer is used to interact and understand textual commands that have failed with
the command line interface, such as an Apple ll or IBM. That some person is more understandable
to technology. He no longer needed to understand how the computer worked, he simply used the
machine intuitively. It was just moving the cursor around your virtual desktop and select what you
want.

As the Macintosh did not sell as well as Apple expected, it did demonstrate that there was a better
way to implement desktop operating systems. So Gates took it upon himself to create an
operating system for Mac OS called Windows that was released in 1985, it was the same year that
Steve Jobs resigned from Apple.

So Macintosh experienced low sales due to its high price, Microsoft had the opportunity to beat
Apple, and that is exactly what happened in the following decade. Windows proved to be a great
success, with dozens of PC manufacturers buying operating system licenses to use on their
hardware. In 1995, Microsoft was worth $ 6 billion while Apple was on a slippery slope toward
bankruptcy. Windows had a virtual monopoly on the computing industry, with Mac OS accounting
for only 4-5 percent of the market.

Mac OS 8 was a very influential version, with features like an updated hierarchical file system that
continued to be used until MacOS High Sierra. That's exactly what Apple tackled in 2001 with the
transition from Mac OS 9 to Mac OS X. But this also started the tradition of naming each version of
Mac OS after a big cat.

The first of which was called Cheetah. Mac OS X Cheetah was now a major release as it ushered in
a new era for the Macintosh operating system. The new operating system required more space on
the hard drive, which also caused longer boot times. Many users also noted the lack of basic
features like DVD playback and CD burning that used to be available in Mac OS 9.
They made Apple offer its next version of Mac OS X to users for free. Because at the time,
upgrading to a new operating system used to cost around $ 130. For introducing many new
features that Cheetah was missing, such as CD and DVD burning, DVD playback support, support
for more printers, and performance. 3D faster.

The following releases of Panther, Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard, and Lion followed the same
patterns. Introducing new features and system optimizations to keep the operating system
competitive. When Apple started introducing apps and items from iOS to MacOS. Like notes,
messages, game center and notification center.

Mavericks introduced desktop versions of iBooks and Maps, Yosemite introduced Photos, Sierra
introduced Siri and Apple Pay, Mojave presented News, Stocks, Voice Memos, and Home. Catalina
features dedicated music apps and podcasts, plus an Apple TV app, all borrowed from iOS. Not to
mention Apple's Project Catalyst, which is designed to help developers bring iOS and iPadOS
applications to the Mac. Catalina no longer supports 32-bit applications.

I highly recommend using Clean My Mac X as it will identify any 32-bit applications, for those 32-
bit applications, and discover it using Clean My Mac's Updater features that will instantly replace
your applications with 64-bit versions if available.

To clean your Mac before upgrading to Catalina, just click on the link in the description and you
will be able to download a free trial version of Clean My Mac X or you can purchase a premium
license for just $ 35 which is much cheaper on the long term compared to a subscription service.

Tablets, phones, watches, and desktop computers, each with their own optimized operating
systems that borrow from each other. So it made sense to replace iTunes with a redesigned music
app that borrows many of its iOS design features and cues. That doesn't mean that the two
operating systems will inevitably become the same thing, it just means that Apple cares about
delivering the best possible user experience.
