While your Macbook Pro is a great machine, it will only run as well as you allow it to. This means that you should do your best to keep the laptop as clutter free and organized as much as you can. It can be all too easy to let old documents pile up on your Desktop, but this inevitably makes it harder to find the files you need exactly when you need them.

Here are a few ways to keep your Macbook's files organized:

  • Create tags: One of the best ways to organize your files is by utilizing the Tags feature. When you go to save a new document, choose File then Save and you can click the text field next to Tags. Create a new tag or pick an existing one and you can sort your files by certain themes.
  • Delete what you don't need: Every month or so you should go through each folder and file on your computer and decide what needs to be kept and what can be permanently deleted. This will keep your laptop's contents as up to date as possible.
  • Keep the Desktop clear: If you want your computer to look and feel clean and organized, you should save files and apps other than the Desktop. Instead, create and label new folders for saved items to go into. This will streamline your Desktop's look.
  • Label everything: It is absolutely essential that you mark and label each folder and file correctly. You don't want to be caught in a position where you need to find something specific but are not able to because you have a dozen untitled files.
