How To Access Icloud Notes

hi, this is gary with macmost.com. in this episode let me show you how to usethe new collaboration feature in the notes app in mac os sierra and ios 10. so a great new feature available in both macos sierra and ios 10 is the ability to use the notes app and collaborate with one ormore people on the same note.

How To Access Icloud Notes, i've created a new note here just by hittingthe new note button and i can start the note. at any time i want i can hit this button hereto add people to the note. when i do so i get this screen here and ican choose how i want to invite them. so i can do it by an email message, a textmessage.

i can just copy the link. i can send by social network. i can even use airdrop to do it. so now let's go and add somebody to the note. i'm going to add another ipad i've got runningwith another demo account to this note. okay, so i'm going to use airdrop here. i'm going to put the apple id for this otheraccount right there. i'm going to hit share. i'm going to see, after i select by airdrop,this invitation here.

i'm going to accept it and it's going to takea second to setup. i get the chance to go right into notes thereand then the note will appear. i'll hit done here on my mac and i can seemy note. so now i'm looking at on the mac here andi'm going to add another line. then you can see on my ipad that other lineis going to appear. i'll even see a brief highlight there justto let me know something new has been added. on the ipad i can add something as well andyou can see it updates there on my mac. we can edit as well. we don't just have to add things.

so i can say, um, add a line here and youcan see it's going to edit and change that on the ipad. at any time i want i can click here and addeven more people to the note. so i can add more. i'm not sure what the limit is but you canadd several people. so, for instance, at a meeting you can allkeep group notes together or you and several people from your team at a meeting can keepgroup notes. you don't have to do this live. of course, you can simply have this note sharedand continue to log in every once in a while

to add things to it. everybody can kind of collaborate in the longterm on a single note as well. you can go back into this list as well andrevoke access to somebody. so, for instance, you can remove access forthis other person here. i can't do that for myself of course. i can just hit stop sharing and stop sharingwith everybody as well. you can, of course, lock a note and if youtry and delete a note it's deleted across all the devices.
