Unlock Safari’s Secrets on Your Mac in Just Five Lessons

$2999

with BoomerTECH Adventures, Maranacook Adult Education

Calendar Sep 1, 2022

Welcome to “Unlock Safari’s Secrets on Your Mac inJust Five Lessons” by BoomerTECH Adventures. This course, in just five lessons, teaches you the ins and outs of using Safari in an efficient manner. There are features in Safari that most of us never explore. Thus, for example, we miss knowing how to avoid having our search data collected and sold. Even more basic, there are screen formatting and layout features we can control that make our time on the internet more pleasant. The multitude of icons and buttons can be confusing and lead to false starts and frustration. We would like to help you avoid such situations! These five videos will help you make sense of both obvious and hidden Safari features. View and review them at your own pace. And don’t forget to call on us, BoomerTECHAdventures guides, Jill, Chris, and Ed. We are available to answer any of your questions at  ed@boomertechadventures.com.
