I’m pretty sure every computer user on the planet should have a dropbox account. DropBoxĮveryone here knows about DropBox, right? It’s free, you get to share folders and files with people (or among all your various computers and devices). And I will be using it for far more, as its capabilities (I’m now learning) are far-reaching. I use it to type stuff that I need to insert all the time (like 4 different email signatures or long common sentences). I now use Keyboard Maestro to launch programs that I use every 5 minutes with a single shortcut. Then my friend Adam Engst told me about Keyboard Maestro, developed by early-Internet-software-master Peter N. But neither company has kept up with the times (I don’t think either one works with Mountain Lion 10.8, for example). I was a big QuicKeys user way-back-when, and more recently I had used iKey. Keyboard Maestro is a macro program - that is, it lets you make keyboard shortcuts. This is the newest addition to my Mac (and what got me thinking about the subject this week).

(But if any of these companies are reading: Feel free to give us some free software and we’ll give it out to InDesignSecrets readers as prizes.) :) Keyboard Maestro
In fact, as much as I like getting free software, I actually paid for each of these out of my own pocket.

Some of these are free others you need to pay for (but they’re so worth it). Feel free to share your favorite Mac OS utilities in the comments below.īy the way, I don’t make any money from any of these companies, or from you following any of these links.
We’ll follow up with a Windows utilities blog post soon. Yes, I am primarily Mac-based, and these are the tools that I use every day. We’ve discussed plug-ins and scripts for years, but I just have to take a moment here to give a shout out to several pieces of Mac OS software that I love. InDesign is awesome, but it doesn’t live in a vacuum! You can’t really be efficient in InDesign (or any other program) if you don’t take advantage of how other software can help you get your work done.
