Finder
1. Feature
found on the Apple Mac OS that gives
access to commonly used items. For example, through the Finder you
can find each of the drives on the computer, network shared items such as a
computer in a network, places, and smart searches. To open Finder, click the
Finder icon (shown in the picture to the right) on the
Dock. To adjust the Finder settings click Finder
on the menu bar.
Tip: Users more familiar with Microsoft Windows can think of Finder as Windows Explorer.
2. A program, utility, or command within a program that allows you to find an object within that program.
