I want to write a letter on my MacBook where do I go to write a simple letter and print it?

super frustrating I spent 2000 on a computer and it doesn't even have a place for creating documents, text edit is lousy and does not allow me to edit my resume or make a respectable cover letter

If you want to write something that looks great and is easy you should use stationary in Mail then just print it.

To write a simple letter you can use Text Edit which is included in your system. Text Edit should be shown under your applications folder. Just open it up and start writing! If you have any other questionsdon't hesitate to ask. Text Edit is a very basic word processor but it will do the job for you. If you want something more advanced, consider iWork of MS Office For Mac. They are both very worthy apps, but pricy and maybe more than you need. You can also consider downloading a program caled Bean which is a fairly good word processor as well. It is free. Just google "Bean" and download from he website.

You spent $2000 on a MacBook? Really?

Just like any other computer YOU need to purchase software with which to do what you need to do. For free, text edit and mail will do a respectable job and the are other free options for full featured applications like

Open Office http://www.openoffice.org/ or

Paid but value for money

iWork Pages available in the Mac app store

Hi,

As stated you can use Text Edit that comes with your Mac... but have a look at Pages in iWork... it comes with some really good Templates and is easy to use...

Cheers, 🙂
