Save time in System Preferences
One of my favorite tips as it’s hiding in plain sight, yet few people ever find it. I’ve seen this more times than I can count:
- Someone opens System Preferences
- They are looking for a specific pref pane
- They shift their cursor back and forth, up and down, trying to find it
- Then they starting looking at the named sections to see what category it might be in
- After strafing the pref panes for awhile, they finally find it
So, try this instead

I’ve also seen this more times than I can count:
- Someone comes in my office
- I open System Preferences
- I go to the pref pane I want quickly because it’s in alphabetical order
- Person says OH MY GOSH THERE’S A PREFERENCE FOR THAT?
