New Delhi: Apple made its new Mac operating system, Yosemite, available as a free download starting Thursday. Apple's Mac operating system Yosemite, named after the national park, gets a new design and better ways to exchange files.
The new Mac OS lets users search for content on the computer and on the Internet at once, similar to a feature that came with Microsoft's Windows 8.1 system.
Apple is expanding its iCloud storage service so that you can store and sync files of any type, not just the ones designed specifically for iCloud. It's similar to how services such as Dropbox, Google Drive and Microsoft's OneDrive let you work with the same files on multiple devices more easily.
A Mail Drop feature makea it easier to send large files. Instead of pushing the entire file by email and overloading mail servers, the Mac creates a link that the recipient can click for the full file.
With OS X Yosemite, the Mac's Safari Web browser has more privacy controls and ways to share links more easily.
Also, Apple Pay, the company's new system for using iPhones to make credit and debit card payments at retail stores, will launch on Monday.
CEO Tim Cook opened Thursday's company event by touting strong reception to the new iPhone 6 and 6 Plus, released last month, and said there's more to come.
