MORE: Windows 10 Review: Best PC OS Yet, But Beware of Bugs In exchange for this slightly confusing change, all files stored in both directories can be accessed from those same directories on all macOS Sierra Macs and the iCloud Drive app on all iPhones and iPads. Once you enable iCloud Desktop and Documents, those folders are stored under iCloud, not in the user directory. If you leave that checkbox enabled, prepare for a slightly different-looking operating system and a whole lot of convenience. ICloud Desktop and Documents: Dropbox for your desktopĭuring the installation of macOS Sierra, the operating system presents a prompt that asks if you want to store files from Documents and Desktop in iCloud Drive. Once I got Universal Clipboard up and running, I felt as if my work was running a lot more smoothly than it had been in the days when I'd send myself a link to a webpage via email or a note-taking app in order to pull text from a page. For now, I can just click F1 to manually dim the panel. I'm hoping issues like this will be ironed out after Siri is more widely used, but I wish they had been addressed beforehand. Then I asked Siri to "decrease the screen brightness," and it complied. When I asked it to "lower the screen brightness," Siri told me it could not do that. First of all, Siri sometimes needs you to use specific language. The two bugs I ran across in Siri both seem like they should be fixed already, and could be fixed by Apple on its server-side end. After I asked it to show me my PDFs (and it did), Siri understood what I meant when I asked to see the ones from the last month. Siri also understands contextual follow-up questions. When I ask Siri to "search the web for photos of cute dogs," not only can I pin those results for later when the Yankee bullpen blows a lead, I can also drag and drop the images onto my desktop.

Siri results can be pinned to the Notifications Center sidebar and receive updates, which makes it easy for me to stay up to date on my team's wins and losses.
