Launchpad Macbook
At the ‘One More Thing’ event, Apple unveiled a slew of new products with the most crucial of them being its own ARM chip for Macs. The hardware powered by the M1 chip includes the new MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, and the Mac mini. While Apple didn’t announce any major design overhauls, there are a couple of subtle changes in the design of the MacBook Air powered by the M1 chip. Apple has imposed new duties on various Function keys on the device.
Mac Cleaner is compatible with iMac, iMac Pro, MacBook, MacBook Air, MacBook Pro, etc., running in macOS Monterey, macOS Big Sur and macOS Catalina, macOS 10.14, 10.13, 10.12 and 10.11. You can use it on Mac where there is Launchpad to remove app icons.
The functions on top of F-keys have been pretty inconsistent across manufacturers and models. Now, Apple is giving them new functionality. The development almost went unnoticed until Bloomberg’s Mark Gurman pointed it out on Twitter. He noted that three Function keys are getting new duties. Instead of the Launchpad on the F4 key, the new MacBook Air powered by the M1 Apple silicon is assigned to Spotlight.
Similarly, the F5 and F6 keys that hosted the keyboard brightness controls have been changed to Dictation, and Do Not Disturb functions. To access these functions, you’d earlier have to go into Settings or press a keyboard shortcut combo. Personally, I use the keyboard brightness controls vie Function keys so I’m not very amused with the latest development.
- Launchpad presents your apps with big icons on your screen, laid out in a similar way to iOS app icons on an iPad. To invoke Launchpad, press F4 on newer Apple keyboards (older Apple.
- For example, on my Macbook Pro, I can fire up Launchpad by pressing F4 on my keyboard. Once Launchpad opens, you’ll see an iPad-like screen that’ll show you all of the currently installed apps. For those of you using a Trackpad, to navigate Launchpad and swipe through the different screens, simply swipe left or right with two fingers.
- Hi there, I accidentally spilled water on my 2015 Macbook Air last night. I immediately turned it off and left it face down on my mantlepiece last night while the fire was going. Fired it up this morning and all was going well until I started typing and realised that both the 'r' and 'f' keys cause the mac to launch Launchpad.
The new MacBook Air powered by the M1 chip comes in the same three colors (silver, space gray, and gold). While the overall design remains the same, it is now a fan-less build. It comes equipped with a 13.3-inch Retina display with a resolution of 2560×1600 pixels. Apple notes that the P3 color gamut gives “wide color results in an even more vibrant, true-to-life Retina display.” Moreover, the new device can last up to 15 hours on wireless web browsing and a maximum of 18 hours on video playback. Here’s all you need to know about the new MacBook Air.
