I just bought me a new Mac today. I am a old Windows user. I put a lot of my documents on flash drives. to get your documents on your Mac do you just plug in the flash drive to the USB ports on the back & drag & drop drop the files

First- congrats on the new Mac- and yes that's the easiest way to do it.

Congrats on your new iMac. As for Facebook, no you access FB from the web for desktop computers.

Facebook doesn't have an app, but if you use Twitter there is an official app and 3rd party (like Tweetbot)

[Chris Cook5]

The Mac app store is completely different from iPhone so bear with me I'm getting used to it. then what is "app for Facebook" used for.

Looks like a 3rd party's attempt to create an app to post to facebook.

i'll try it later when I get home but that hasn't seemed to work. i'm new to Mac

how do you select multiple items & drag them to the trash on a trackpad

tap on the trackpad and hold, then draw a box around the items you want, assuming they're near each other.

if not, the COMMAND ⌘ key works, just hold and click each item. Not the control key.

Also, COMMAND+A will Select All.

Drag it to the trash or hit cmd-delete.

[Chris Cook5]

when you search spotlight search some of the items that I deleted are still showing up. can I get rid of them permanently or am I doing something wrong

[Darth_Bane]

Right click the trash can and select empty, the files will be gone forever.

if you receive a call on your iPhone can you continue the call on your Mac

[Darth_Bane]

if you receive a call on your iPhone can you continue the call on your Mac

Yes, I believe so, though I usually take a call on my iMac. I've never picked up on my iPhone and then switched to the iMac.

As asked, need more info. Does the Mail app beach ball before opening or does it open and then beach ball.? Specs on your Mac, like what hard drive (SSD or Standard Drive). Web base Mail app or Apple Mail App? Any info you can provide will help. Thanks!

What is the spec on your iMac? The 1TB drive or a 1TB or higher Fusion Drive model?
