- [Tutorial Instructor] At this point,…it's time to run some applications.…Launching a program on your computer is pretty simple,…but I want to take a look…at the different ways to do it…and also check out some important details…that you might easily miss.…As you can probably guess,…we'll be using the Dock and Launchpad,…but we'll also be building on…our knowledge of Finder as well.…So we've already seen in this course…one way to launch applications,…which is probably the easiest way to do it.…And that's to launch something from the Dock.…So the Dock is this row at the bottom of the screen.…
You can find an application here that you want to run.…You just click on the icon and that application launches.…When an application is running, it has a little black dot…underneath the icon in the Dock,…and of course a window also opens,…and you can see that application's menus…up at the top of the screen.…But that's not the only way to launch an application.…Let's look at another way.…I'm going to go into Finder,…and I want to go to the Applications folder.…
