Install for New Notes Features

Apple adds three new Notes features that are worth upgrading to macOS High Sierra for. The first is the ability to pin important notes to the top of your Notes. This is a great way to keep a key list of to do items or an instruction manual for some complicated task at hand. We also use it for a grocery list. 

Another excellent feature is the ability to add tables to Notes. this is like a mini spreadsheet when you don't need calculations. It's the perfect way to organize a little bit of information like who is in charge of specific functions at an event or other small things that make sense to keep in notes and not in a separate spreadsheet. 

In iOS 11 you can scan a document with the Notes app. You need to be on macOS High Sierra to see these scans on your mac, which is another reason to upgrade.

      Same question – I have a MacBook Pro Retina (Late 2013)

      Seems anything over 3 months old is considered “really old” these days.

    Every time I come here to read about Apple (I find this site via Google) I never get a straight answer nor opinion.

    Not once do you ever dare to call the child by its name.

    Are you afraid of Apple ?

    Trouble with the version 10.13.4 and Safari and the slowness never seen before. I hope Apple is aware that they NEED to get a better version. I have had no problems with Firefox…

    Look at the upgrade requirements information. As I recall if your Mac is 2009 or later, you should be OK.

    After 50 years of writing software and managing software development programs, including operating systems, I would label the Mac high sierra software as junk software. I have version 10.13.6. Mac mail is nearly unworkable, and almost every operation leads to a spinning beachball.
    Come on, guys, just make one stable version of OSX that recaptures the Mac-feel of the operating system that drew us to Macs in the first place.

      Absolutely. Apple: have dancing girls careering across the screen if your sales manager imagines that’s what your 16- to 26-year old target customers want, but don’t forget, as you have done, that a lot of people actually depend on their systems WORKING, reliably, no glitches, no down-time while problems generated by your latest heap of increasingly-irrelevant software are sorted out. And glued-together hardware doesn’t impress all of us, either.
