Native Mac apps built with Mac Catalyst can share code with your iPad apps, and you can add more features just for Mac. In macOS Big Sur, you can create even more powerful versions of your apps and take advantage of every pixel on the screen by running them at native Mac resolution. Apps built with Mac Catalyst can now be fully controlled using just the keyboard, access more iOS frameworks, and take advantage of the all-new look of macOS Big Sur. There’s never been a better time to turn your iPad app into a powerful Mac app.
Designed for macOS Big Sur.
When an app built with Mac Catalyst runs on macOS Big Sur, it automatically adopts the new design. The new Maps and Messages apps were built with the latest version of Mac Catalyst.
Get a head start on your native Mac app.
Your iPad app can be made into an excellent Mac app. Now’s the perfect time to bring your app to life on Mac. The latest version of Xcode 12 is all you need. Begin by selecting the “Mac” checkbox in the project settings of your existing iPad app to create a native Mac app that you can enhance further. Your Mac and iPad apps share the same project and source code, making it easy to make changes in one place.
Optimize your interface for Mac.
Your newly created Mac app runs natively, utilizing the same frameworks, resources, and runtime environment as apps built just for Mac. Fundamental Mac desktop and windowing features are added, and touch controls are adapted to the keyboard and mouse. By default, your app will scale to match the iPad’s resolution. On macOS Big Sur, you can choose “Optimize interface for Mac” to use the Mac idiom, running your app using the native resolution on Mac. This gives you full control of every pixel on the screen and allows your app to adopt more controls specific to Mac, such as pull-down menus and checkboxes.
Even more powerful.
The new APIs and behaviors in macOS Big Sur let you create even more powerful Mac apps. Apps can now be fully controlled using just the keyboard. You can create out-of-window and detachable popovers, control window tabbing using new window APIs, and make it easier for users to select photos in your app by using the updated Photos picker. iOS Photos editing extensions can now be built to run on Mac. And your app is even easier to manage when it’s running in the background with improved app lifecycle APIs.
New and updated frameworks.
Mac Catalyst adds support for new and updated frameworks to extend what your apps can do on Mac. HomeKit support means home automation apps can run alongside the Home app on Mac. The addition of the ClassKit framework lets Mac apps track assignments and share progress with teachers and students. Plus, there are updates to many existing frameworks, including Accounts, Contacts, Core Audio, GameKit, MediaPlayer, PassKit, and StoreKit.

Migrate PC to MACMigrate PC to MAC
With the release of Microsoft's new operating system 'Windows 8', some people are considering whether to stay with Windows or make the move over to Mac rather than upgrading.
But how do you take such a leap? Well rest assured it's actually easier than you might think, more like a little hop.
The two latest versions of OS X, Lion and Mountain Lion, both include a utility called the 'Migration Assistant' which provides an automated way to migrate your files from a Windows PC.
What data is migrated by Migration Assistant?
- User Account
- Files (documents, photos and videos)
- Contacts
- Calendars
- ITunes
- Browser Settings for Internet Explorer, Safari and Firefox
Apple's Migration Assistant is capable of transferring data from a number of Windows mail applications including Microsoft Outlook (2003, 2007 and 2010 32-bit versions), Outlook Express, Windows Mail and Windows Mail Live Mail.
If you have iTunes for Windows installed then your iTunes library including music, photos, videos, apps and games for iOS devices, will be copied over.
What data is NOT migrated by Migration Assistant?
- Windows Applications
- User Account Passwords
Migrate To Mac App
No Windows applications are copied over because Mac cannot run Windows software and for that reason you might not be able to open some files created by missing Windows applications. For example you will need to install Microsoft Word for Mac (or an alternative word processing application for Mac) to enable you to open all those lovely Word documents you have just moved.
How to Transfer
The easiest method to perform this task is by connecting your new Mac and PC to the same home/office network and running the Migration Assistant Wizard on the Mac and the Windows Migration Assistant on your PC (this is a free program written by Apple).
Windows Migration Assistant v1.0.1 can be downloaded here:

To make the transfer more seamless it is advisable that you disable Windows Updates on your PC and ensure both machines are connected to the internet.
Simply download and run the Windows Migration Assistant on your PC, where it will wait for a response from the Migration Assistant on the Mac.

Running the Migration Assistant on the Mac will present you with clear step by step instructions that will guide you through the process and it's from here that you'll be able to confirm exactly what folders and data you want to migrate.
Once you have selected the options the length of time that it takes will depend on the number and size of the files being migrated, and the speed of the network.
That's really all there is to it!
