    GitHub CLI, known as gh, is the official command line tool from GitHub. It brings the parts of GitHub you use every day into Terminal, so pull requests, issues and releases can be handled with short commands beside your code. Developers who script their workflow or simply type faster than they click will appreciate how much context switching it removes.

    Key Features

    • Create, view, review and merge pull requests without leaving your terminal window
    • Open, search and manage issues alongside the code they describe
    • Clone, fork and create repositories with short and memorable commands
    • Download release assets and publish releases as part of your build routine
    • Sign in securely with your GitHub account and script repeat tasks with confidence

    How to Download

    1. Visit the project page to read the install guidance for macOS before you begin.
    2. Download from the official site and choose the Mac package or package manager route offered.
    3. Install the tool, run the sign in command in Terminal and confirm your account is connected.

    System Requirements

    GitHub CLI runs on macOS on both Intel Macs and Macs with Apple silicon. You need a GitHub account for most commands, and having Git itself installed makes repository work smoother.

    FAQs

    Is GitHub CLI an official GitHub tool?

    Yes. GitHub develops and maintains it, and new features are published through the project releases on GitHub itself.

    Do I still need Git installed?

    For most repository work yes, because gh works alongside Git rather than replacing it. The two tools are designed to complement each other.

    Can I use it in scripts?

    Yes. Its commands return clear output and support structured formats, which makes gh popular inside build scripts and routine automation.

    NordVPN is a virtual private network app that routes your Mac internet traffic through an encrypted tunnel, hiding your IP address from websites and shielding your activity on public Wi Fi. People use it at home, in cafes and while travelling, both for privacy and for a steadier, safer connection on networks they do not control. One account covers your Mac and your other devices too.

    Key Features

    • Encrypted VPN connections with a choice of servers in many countries
    • NordLynx protocol built for fast speeds on everyday connections
    • Kill switch that blocks traffic if the VPN connection drops
    • Threat protection features that warn about risky sites and files
    • Meshnet for linking your own devices into a private network

    How to Download

    1. Open the official product page and use Download from the official site to get the Mac app.
    2. Open the downloaded package and follow the on screen steps to install NordVPN.
    3. Launch the app, sign in to your account, and press the secure my connection button.

    System Requirements

    The current NordVPN Mac app needs macOS 14 Sonoma or later, and it runs on Macs with Apple silicon and on Intel Macs. You also need a NordVPN subscription and an internet connection to use the service.

    FAQs

    Can I try NordVPN before paying?

    You can download and install the app freely, but connecting to servers needs a paid plan. NordVPN sells its plans with a money back guarantee period.

    Will a VPN slow my Mac down?

    Any VPN adds some overhead. With a nearby server and the NordLynx protocol, the drop is usually small for browsing, streaming and calls.

    How many devices can I use at once?

    One account allows several simultaneous connections, so your Mac, phone and tablet can all stay protected at the same time.

    Mac Utilities • Updated Aug 6, 2026

    Cisdem PDF Password Remover is a small Mac utility for a frustrating moment: a PDF you own asks for a password before it will open, copy or print, and the password is lost or was set long ago. The app removes open and permission passwords from your files and saves unlocked copies, so you can read, edit and print your own documents again without rebuilding them from scratch.

    Key Features

    • Removes open passwords when the correct password is provided
    • Lifts owner restrictions that block copying, editing and printing
    • Batch processing for unlocking several PDF files in one run
    • Keeps the original layout, text, images and links in the saved copies
    • Simple drag and drop window with no technical steps to learn

    How to Download

    1. Open the official product page and use Download from the official site to get the Mac version.
    2. Open the downloaded file and move the app into your Applications folder.
    3. Launch the app, add a PDF you own, and save the unlocked copy.

    System Requirements

    The app needs macOS 10.15 or later. Version 5.4.0 added native support for Apple silicon, and it also runs on Intel Macs. It works on local files and needs no internet connection while processing.

    FAQs

    Is it legal to remove a PDF password?

    Use this tool only on files you own or have clear permission to open. Removing passwords from other peoples protected documents is not appropriate.

    Will the unlocked copy look the same?

    Yes. The app saves a copy with the same content and layout, and the 5.4.0 release fixed links that could break after unlocking.

    What if a file uses strong AES encryption?

    Some strongly encrypted files cannot be processed. The Cisdem FAQ states that AES protected PDFs are not supported by the current version.
