How to Record Your Screen on a Mac

Recording your screen on a Mac is a simple process that can be done using various methods. Whether you want to save a YouTube video, show someone a problem you're having with your computer, or create a tutorial, recording your screen is easy.

To start, open the Screen Recording window by going to the Apple Menu Bar at the top of your screen and clicking on it. If you don't see it in your Applications folder, you can download it here.

Alternatively, you can also use QuickTime Player app, which comes pre-installed on Mac computers. To do this, open the QuickTime Player app and click on 'New Screen Recording' and then click the red button in the pop-up window.

Once you've opened the screen recording window, you'll see a box with broken lines appear on your screen. This indicates that you can select what part of your screen to record. You can also choose to record your entire screen by clicking on the fourth button after the 'x' icon.

To start recording, click on either the 'Record Entire Screen' or 'Record Selected Portion' buttons in the pop-up toolbar at the bottom of your screen. If you're using QuickTime Player app, you can also press Command + Control + Esc to stop recording.

Another way to record your screen is by pressing the Command + Shift + 5 keys on your keyboard. This will open a pop-up toolbar that allows you to select either 'Record Entire Screen' or 'Record Selected Portion'.

You can also customize your screen recordings by choosing to show your mouse clicks, record audio, and more.

Overall, recording your screen on a Mac is easy and convenient. With these simple steps, you'll be able to capture what's happening on your screen in no time.
