Thanks Liquid.

 

I've just checked with Cheat Sheet and there's no keyboard shortcut for opening Disk Utility/formatting the drive, so your OK haha.

 

I must admit when I first had a play around on a Mac in an Apple Store I was a little bit frightened by the various things I was unfamiliar with. But after a relitively short period of time everything becomes clear, especially when you can ask questions and pick up tips from other Mac users on various forums.

 

A lot of things are done similar to how its done on Windows, for example, pressing the CTRL key on a Windows keyboard and C (to copy) on a Mac its CMD key and C. Yeah there's a bit of a learning curve for learning different ways to do things but its not that bad to be honest.

When I made the video the other day on how to safely eject a USB device on a Mac. I forgot another method that can be used to eject a USB device, so this video is an addition to this video.
