There are hundreds of new features and tweaks in Sierra, and while you may not notice every single one, we promise they add up to a vastly improved experience. Just like the previous OS X upgrade (Yosemite), Sierra is a free download through the Apple App Store, though if you're lucky enough to own a brand new Apple iMac or Macbook, it will ship with Sierra pre-installed. But wait, you say. You've never used a Mac before, and you have no idea what any of this means. No worries! This guide was written just for you. We'll cover everything you need to know about making the switch from Windows to Mac, the basic terminology you'll need to find your way around and customize your machine, some handy tips and tricks that even serious Mac users may not know, and some basic maintenance that will keep your Mac happy and healthy for years to come. Finally, we'll cover a number of free third party apps that will help you get the most out of your Mac and OS X Sierra. Along the way, we'll give you lots of screenshots, tips and practice so that you can feel confident, competent and comfortable with your new Mac.
