Join Nick Brazzi for an in-depth discussion in this video Notification Center, part of Mac OS X Mavericks Essential Training.
I want to start by acknowledging that Notification…Center isn't really an application in OS X.…It's a system-wide feature, but it ties into a lot of the applications that…we've been talking about in this chapter, so I think it fits in here.…Lots of the applications that we've seen, and some…that we haven't, are going to need to send you notifications.…Notifications are just little alerts that pop up…on your screen to give you some important information.…Maybe reminding…you of an appointment.…Maybe letting you know that you've received an email.…There are lots of reasons for your…computer to send you some sort of notification.…
But there's nothing more annoying than getting a…series of notifications about something you don't care about.…So let's get Notifications Center set up so that you get the…notifications you want and you never see the notifications that you don't want.…This little popup is a notification from an alert that I have in…my calendar.…It's reminding me about an appointment that I have coming up.…
