    Hi I’ve recently subscribed to your channel and it was by chance that I did… I’ve recently after 30 years gone from windows Laptop’s to my new MacBook M2 Max . I have to say that your tutorial’s are very well explained and I’ve learnt so much. I’m now into the apple Eco system big time with 3 devices and I feel much more comfortable especially with my Laptop. Us more matured users need refresher explainers to function and features and you show this very well! Thankfully Ive changed to Apple for the laptop to considering my new hobby includes content creation. Still a work in progress though 🤭 Keep those videos coming so great! Thx very much from Vietnam 🇻🇳🙏🏻👍🏼

    hello, nice video! i have a problem. the macbook is connected to a 4k monitor and everything is very small. (eyes grow weak) what to do? I need to increase the fonts of the ENTIRE system while maintaining the 4k resolution. I called the apple service, they offered to reduce the resolution to 2560x1440 or 1920x1080 and that's it! Reduced resolution does not suit me, because I want to see a lot of space. I can increase the font size of the web browser, fine, but I can't do it in menus, reminders, calendar, or programs, and it's too small. please help what to do?

    This is an AWESOME tip, Gary. 👏👏👏 When I tried your tip on Apple's native mail app, (where the text is often way too small compared to, for example, the Outlook mail app), the increase in text size when I move the size slider JUST ONE increment, is HUGE! I would estimate the text increases in size by at least 3 times. So the text goes from too small to too big when you move the text size slider as little as possible! 🤦‍♂️ What's going on here!?

    @@macmost Hi Gary! I did a little research and it appears that some text responds nicely through the increments (100, 110, 120, 135, 160, ...) In the control center vertical slider. This is often email text "personal" sources that I assume was composed on a smartphone, tablet, or computer. On the other hand, other text does not respond at all until you get to the 160% setting, and then it jumps in size like a mad dog! This is often text from "commercial" sources, like businesses. When I adjust the text size in Settings using the horizontal slider, it only takes a movement of one slider position to cause this huge jump. So I assume the slider in settings increases the size of text in bigger jumps. Does this information help?

    @@MrLuigi-oi7gm It is probably because those emails use HTML formatting with specific fonts, sizes, design, etc. They probably have code in them to react to different things going on in the environment, similar to how web pages react to different zoom levels. Not much you can do except adjust as needed on your end.
