如果您最近购买了Apple计算机并将操作系统从 Windows 切换到 macOS(from Windows to macOS)，您会注意到在Mac上选择和移动文件等简单任务是不同的。
(File)当您只需要选择一个文件时，文件选择很简单。在Mac OS X中，单击文件并继续您计划的操作 —移动(move)、复制或删除(delete)。但是，如果您想移动或删除一大组文件怎么办？
您可以使用以下方法选择多个文件（文档、照片、音频和视频文件）以及Apple电脑上的文件夹和应用程序。
在Mac(Mac)上选择多个文件有四种不同的方法。在本教程中，我们将向您展示如何：
- 选择多个相邻文件
- 选择分散在文件夹中的文件
- 使用鼠标选择多个文件
- 同时选择(Select)文件夹中的所有文件
如何在 Mac 上选择多个相邻文件(How to Select Multiple Adjacent Files on a Mac)
如果您需要选择多个相邻或连续的文件（彼此相邻），您可以使用 shift-click 方法。为此，请按照以下步骤操作。
- 打开文件所在 的Finder窗口。(Finder)
- 在Finder窗口的顶部，您会看到视图类型。您的下一步取决于此设置。
- 如果您的文件显示在图标视图( Icon view)中，请选择第一个文件，然后按住Shift键。使用右箭头(right arrow)键选择更多文件。您还可以使用向下箭头(down arrow)进行更广泛的选择。继续前进，直到到达最后一个文件。
- 如果您的项目显示在列表视图(List view)、列视图(Column view)或图库(Gallery)中，请选择第一个文件，然后按住Shift键。选择文件序列的最后一个文件。然后Finder(Finder)将选择第一个和最后一个文件以及它们之间的所有文件。
您现在可以使用您选择的项目来执行其他操作。要取消选择文件，只需单击Finder中的其他位置。
如何在 Mac 上选择不相邻的文件(How to Select Non-Adjacent Files on a Mac)
假设您要选择的文件不相邻，而是位于不同的行或分散在Finder中的文件夹中。要在Mac(Mac)上选择多个不相邻的文件，请按照以下步骤操作。
- 打开包含您要选择的文件 的Finder窗口。(Finder)
- 选择第一个文件。
- 在键盘上，按住Command键 ( Cmd )。
- 要将更多文件添加到选择中，请在按住Command键的同时选择它们。
如果您不小心选择了任何单个文件，您也可以使用Command +单击方法取消选择它。为此，请按Command，然后选择有问题的文件。这样，其他选定的文件将保持突出显示，您不必从头开始。
提示：(Tip:)如果您已经选择了一些文件，则可以使用相同的方法将更多文件添加到该选择中。
如何使用鼠标或触控板选择多个文件 (How to Select Multiple Files Using Mouse or Trackpad )
单击 + 拖动方法允许您使用鼠标或触控板选择多个文件。这种方法可能是最简单的一种。但是，它还要求您的文件在Finder(Finder)中彼此相邻。
要使用此方法，请打开包含文件的Finder窗口，使用鼠标或轨道单击任意位置，然后将光标拖动到要选择的文件上。
方法 4：如何选择 Mac 上的所有文件(Method 4: How to Select All Files on a Mac)
如果您需要在Finder中选择文件夹中的所有文件，可以使用菜单栏选项或键盘快捷键。要选择文件夹中的所有项目，请按照以下步骤操作。
- 打开包含您要选择的文件的Finder窗口。(Finder)

How to Select Multiple Files on a Mac
If you recently bought an Αpple computer and switched орerating syѕtems from Windows to macOS, you’ve noticed that simple tasks like selecting and moving files around are different on a Mac.
File selection is simple when you just need to select a single file. In Mac OS X, click the file and proceed to your planned action—move, copy, or delete. But what if you want to move or delete a big group of files?
You can use the following methods to select multiple files (documents, photos, audio & video files), as well as folders and apps on your Apple computer.
There are four different ways to select multiple files on a Mac. In this tutorial, we’ll show you how to:
- Select multiple adjacent files
- Select files scattered around in a folder
- Use your mouse to select multiple files
- Select all files in a folder at the same time
How to Select Multiple Adjacent Files on a Mac
If you need to select multiple adjacent or contiguous files (located next to one another), you can use the shift-click method. To do that, follow the steps below.
- Open a Finder window where your files are located.
- On top of the Finder window, you’ll see the view type. Your next step depends on this setting.
- If you have your files shown in Icon view, select the first file, then press and hold down the Shift key. Use the right arrow key to select more files. You can also use the down arrow to make a more extensive selection. Keep going until you reach the last file.
- If your items are shown in List view, Column view, or Gallery, select the first file, then press and hold down the Shift key. Select the last file of the file sequence. Finder will then select the first and the last file and all of the files in between them.
You can now use your selected items to perform other actions. To deselect files, simply click elsewhere in Finder.
How to Select Non-Adjacent Files on a Mac
Suppose the files you want to select aren’t adjacent but instead located in different rows or scattered across your folder in Finder. To select multiple non-adjacent files on Mac, follow the steps below.
- Open a Finder window with the files you want to select.
- Select the first file.
- On your keyboard, press and hold down the Command key (Cmd).
- To add more files to the selection, select them while holding the Command key down.
If you select any single file by accident, you can also use the Command + click method to deselect it. To do that, press Command, then select the file in question. That way, the other selected files will stay highlighted, and you won’t have to start from the beginning.
Tip: If you already have some files selected, you can add more files to that selection using this same method.
How to Select Multiple Files Using Mouse or Trackpad
The click + drag method allows you to select multiple files using your mouse or trackpad. This method might be the easiest one of all. However, it also requires your files to be located next to one another in Finder.
To use this method, open the Finder window with your files, use your mouse or track to click anywhere, and drag your cursor across the files you want to select.
Method 4: How to Select All Files on a Mac
If you need to select all files in a folder in Finder, you can use the menu bar option or a keyboard shortcut. To select all items in a folder, follow the steps below.
- Open the Finder window with the files you want to select.
- In Finder’s menu bar, select Edit > Select All. You’ll see all of your files selected.
- Alternatively, use the keyboard shortcut Command + A to select all files.
After you have all your files selected, you can right-click them and choose any actions available.
