Hi, Press and hold buttons are items which you can adjust by holding them down. This applies to sliders, splitters, steppers and even regular buttons. This is very useful, for instance, when you want to go forward in a track in iTunes. Another example is that holding the "Add event" button will display a list of Calendars in the Calendar application.
