This third edition of Air Display lets you extend or mirror your Mac computer desktop or laptop onto an iPad or iPhone.

Some exciting new features:

USB:  You can still communicate over Wi-Fi, which is very useful in some cases and allows you walk around untethered, but you can also plug in your dock connector and see screaming fast performance with no perceptible lag. This is great for using Air Display in locations with a hostile Wi-Fi network, like hotels, coffee shops, airplanes, and some corporate and campus networks.

Pressure: You can draw with your favorite pressure-sensitive stylus directly into a Mac app like Photoshop or Motion.

In Air Display 3, they have added support for all of the latest styluses. And on iOS 8, you don’t even need a stylus: just tilt your finger to simulate pressure changes.

Pinch-Zoom: You can use familiar gestures to zoom and pan, which is quite handy at Retina resolutions. It makes the iPhone a useful second display.

Speed: USB speeds up the Air Display connection a lot, but Air Display 3 also dramatically increases performance over Wi-Fi.

How to search your entire email in Microsoft Outlook for Mac - Hidden Feature

Tweet

In Microsoft Outlook email program for Mac OS X it can be surprisingly hard to find the Search function to search all email accounts and all folders. There’s a search field that is visible, but it only searches the current folder.
Why Microsoft made the user interface choice to hide the ability to search is somewhat of a mystery to me, but here’s how you access all of the other search options in Outlook.

This works in outlook 2011 as well as outlook 2016 for the Mac

Folder – Searches the current folder only

Subfolders – Searches within the current folder and subfolders

All Mail boxes – Searches all email in Multiple accounts and folders

All Outlook Items – Searches all items in Outlook, including email, calendar entries, to-do entries, address book contacts, etc.
