Your Mac offers multiple options for taking screen captures
Did you know Apple has made it very easy to capture screenshots and make video recordings of your Mac’s screen?
It’s actually pretty easy for Windows users too, but Mac users have a lot more flexibility when it comes to capturing or recording their screens using the operating system’s native tools.
This page on the Apple website explains all of your screen capture options, complete with step-by-step instructions where necessary.
