Whether you're writing an email or a document on your Mac or Windows PC, you'll often need to correct typos or move words or whole sentences around or add an underline, bold or italic for emphasis.
We’ll show you how to do the essentials below, using Word for Mac and Windows.
Now that Adobe Flash is to be discontinued at the end of the year, it's a good time to check to see if you still need Flash installed and to remove it before it becomes unsupported.
Not many websites still need Flash and some browsers, such as Edge and Chrome, have their own version of Flash built in although this is usually disabled by default now.
In this tip, we'll show you how to check and see if Flash is installed and how to remove it from your Mac and Windows PC.
With everyone trying to work out the best way to allow their team to work from home due to Coronavirus, we thought we’d share some of the apps we’ve been using for years to allow our teams in different locations to work together and keep all our files and documents easily accessible by everyone.
We hope this helps you develop the best way of working from home and if you have any questions about remote working or need any help getting set up, just let us know at help@tekeez.uk
If you receive a computer from someone else, either because you've taken over from them at work, or someone has passed on a computer that they don't need anymore, it's important that you create a new user for yourself before you start to use it.
These days we all have passwords for everything and they all need to be unique, secure and cryptic but easy to access when you need them.
For years now we've been using and recommending 1Password as an easy way to create, store and enter passwords that match all the requirements above.
If you have a lot of applications running on your computer, it can sometimes be difficult to find the one that you’re looking for.
Fortunately both Mac and Windows have an easy to use shortcut for switching between your applications.
In a previous tip we showed you how to free up space on your disk in Windows 10, the process is completely different on Windows 11 so we deduced it was time for a new tip to help you if you start to run out of free space.
Temporary Password is a good way to send passwords securely, as it is a one time only use link, that way when you send over the link to someone in an email, once you confirm they have the password it's not going to be stored in your emails.
In a previous tip, we showed you how to use the new multiple desktops feature in Windows 10 and this week we'll show you how to do the same in macOS. The Mac has had multiple desktops for a long time, but the way they work changed slightly in macOS 10.11 so we thought it would be a good topic to cover again.
If you're sending photos or PDFs to people it can be very helpful to add your own annotations, whether it's to give someone directions or point something out in the photo. This is very easy to do using Preview on the Mac and below we'll show you how to do it.
We're often asked how to find files that have just been downloaded through a web browser, so we thought we'd put a little guide together to show you how to easily locate your downloads.
In a previous Tekeez Tip, we showed you how to see where your disk space was being used in both Windows and macOS. As this process has now changed in both Windows 11 and macOS Ventura, we thought it was time for a new time to help you see what's using up all your disk space.
