Here is how you can prepare your MAC for Video Conferencing
There is little as frustrating as having your online presentation interrupted by technical glitches. Making sure your computer is ready technically for a smooth delivery is critical. If you have a MAC, here is how you can prepare your MAC for video conferencing.
Unlike PCs, MAC computers do not have any built-in tools to clean the things that make getting online for video conferencing efficient and smooth running. The zoom app is connected to your system’s resources, which are affected by several things, none of which has a built-in cleaner.
The solution to prepare your MAC for video conferencing
The MacPaw company has written a program to clean everything that slows it down. That program is called CleanMyMac.
The items that affect the MAC speed are:
- Four types of Cache: System, Browser, App cache, and User cache.
- The Desktop: the MAC system thinks of every file on the Desktop as “active” and when there are too many, “Finder” runs slower.
- Leftover installation downloads (DMGs. Not all programs ask if you want to delete the installation file after completion.
- Login items: Programs that start when you start the computer
- Old versions of software are left over when you install a new version
- Empty Trash
- Remove old iOS backups
- Duplicate downloads
Each of these items has several steps. CleanMyMac does each of them and leaves your Mac running better than ever.
