Step 2 – Connect to Windows Shared Folder from OS X. Finally, on the Mac, open Finder and look under the Shared section for the Windows 10 PC. If Shared is not in the sidebar, you have to add it. With Finder open, click on Finder and then Preferences at the top. Click on Sidebar and check all the items under Shared.

A push button appears within a view and initiates an instantaneous app-specific action, such as printing a document or deleting a file.

Window Buttons - Close Minimize and Zoom

New Mac Os 11
Close Button
Some applications will quit when you close the window, some won't. An ideal example to demonstrate this behavior would be a comparison of System Preferences and TextEdit. System Preferences quits when you when you click the close button. TextEdit however will continue to run when the close button is clicked. You can verify this behavior using several different methods in Mac OS X for example, by looking under the application's icon in the Dock or by using Activity Monitor.
As a general rule, document-centric and/or applications that can have multiple windows open at any given time remain open when the window's close button is clicked. Single window applications on the other hand will quit. Additional single window examples include Calculator, Dictionary, and DVD Player to name a few.
Minimize Button
You can minimize a window by clicking on the yellow button. When you do this the window will find it's way to the right side of the Dock and will show up as a very small window. The behavior is controlled by a Dock preference setting under System Preferences choices are 'Genie Effect' (default setting) and 'Scale Effect'. The example below shows the minimize of a Finder window to the Dock using the Genie Effect. Note how it looks in the Dock when fully minimized.
Zoom Button
The name 'Zoom' is a bit misleading for the green button because the button not only zooms (or maximizes) but shrinks a window. A click of the zoom button will make a window large enough so that you will be presented a view to show the relevant information for that window. A subsequent click will return the window it's prior size.
The example that follows is of a Finder window. Observe the first and second views closely. Note that second is shown after clicking on the zoom button. You can now see the additional column and sidebar listings.
Try to click on the zoom button in various applications to observe the behavior.

Push Buttons
A push button appears within a view and initiates an instantaneous app-specific action, such as printing a document or deleting a file. Push buttons contain text—not icons—and often open a separate window, dialog, or app so the user can complete a task.
Configure a push button the user is likely to select as the default. A default push button is prominent in appearance and automatically performs its action when the user presses Return. There can only be a single default button in a view.
Use a push button in a view, not a window frame. Push buttons aren't intended for use within toolbars and status bars. If you need a button in a toolbar, use a toolbar item. See Toolbars.
Display text rather than an icon in a push button. Users expect push buttons to include descriptive titles. If you want to display an icon in a button, use an image button instead. See Image Buttons.
Adjust a push button's width to accommodate the title. If you don't make the button wide enough, its title may be cut off.
Use title-case for push button titles. Capitalize every word except articles, coordinating conjunctions, and prepositions of four or fewer letters. Zen burger mac os.
Use verbs in push button titles. An action-specific title shows that the button is interactive and conveys what happens when clicked. For example, Save, Close, Print, Delete, and Change Password are action-specific titles. Because buttons initiate immediate actions, there's no need for to include a time descriptor like Now.
Be specific when targeting a single item. A title like Choose Picture is more helpful than Import because it identifies what the user should choose.
Include a trailing ellipsis in the title when a push button opens another window, dialog, or app. For example, the Edit buttons in the AutoFill pane of Safari Preferences include ellipses because they open other dialogs or windows that let the user modify autofill values.

Avoid providing introductory labels. Push button titles should be descriptive enough that a label is unnecessary.
Separate destructive buttons from nondestructive controls. Destructive buttons should be far enough away from other elements that the user has to make an intentional effort to click the button.
Use a checkbox instead of a button when the user needs to choose between two states. The on and off states of a checkbox are generally clearer to most users than a push button configured as a toggle. See Checkboxes.
Use a pop-up button when you need to present a list of choices. A pop-up button's appearance informs the user that a list will be presented. See Pop-Up Buttons. The king of the wood mac os.
Consider enabling spring loading. Push buttons can be configured to support spring loading on systems with a Force Touch trackpad. Spring loading lets a user activate the button by dragging selected items over it and force clicking—pressing harder—without dropping the selected items. The user can then continue dragging the items, possibly to perform additional actions. For developer guidance, see isSpringLoaded.
