How to take a screenshot on a Mac

Probably everyone knows how to take a screenshot with an iPhone or iPad - by pressing the home and power button simultaneously. But many do not know how to do so with a Mac - be it a Macbook or iMac. 

The answer is Command-Shift-3 - this will take a screenshot and save it to your desktop. 

To take a screenshot of a selected area of your desktop, try Command-Shift-4, then click and drag your mouse over the selected area.

For a screenshot of a particular window, use Command-Shift-4-space, then click on the desired window.
