Copy and delete a file at the same time
Often I want to move a file from my desktop to another disk. I drag it and drop it into the folder I want and what does OS X do? It helpfully copies to file to the location I wanted it, but sadly leaves it on the desktop (or wherever it was to begin with). Sometimes this is exactly the behavior I want, but most of the time I want to move that file AND delete it from its starting location.Apple has a Pro tip up that shows you how to do this with one action. Simply hold down the Command button as you're dragging and like magic the file is copied to the new location and deleted from the old.Nice. Hey, Apple, how about an RSS feed of these Pro Tips? Thanks!
