Apple stores DO still have ‘Basics’ classes, as well, just not the one-on-one

Best chance we can help is if you can tell us what Mac model, OS version and 
apps you're talking about, or wht you’re trying to do.

Eddie and Al, you are troopers and I salute your resilience. As my greatly
missed late father used to say of the vintage computers: "They will always
do what they were intended to do." And that is quite a lot!

I have quite a few old Macs and all are still cranking. Best of luck with
yours. You are in good company.

the contents.
Since i don't know how to do that,

Maybe after i learn this, i can ask
some more questions?

Hello Eddie,

Congratulations on your choice. I am only 82 years old.

The Help tab in the top bar on the screen. In the Finder, you can pick on 
What’s New in Mac OS X and Get to Know your Mac. Decide what parts of the 
offerings to spend time on first. Each application has Help. Also Search in 
Help.

A local Macintosh user group may have someone ready to spend time with you 
one-on-one.
Beginners’ level class in your local public school system.
A seniors group.
Your neighbor’s kid (no kidding!).

BOOKS: I like the Teach Yourself VISUALLY series. If your new Mac is 
running Sierra, “Teach Yourself VISUALLY macOS Sierra” is available now. If 
you have High Sierra, that book will ship from Amazon.com later this month. 
Another series with good reviews has “MacOS Sierra for Seniors.” Their High 
Sierra version is also due soon.

You should be able to sit a while and browse these books at any Barnes & 
Noble store. Perhaps your public library has them. 

Apple Stores quit their own One to One service two years ago.

If you are moving over from a Windows PC, Apple has (or used to have) a 
tutorial on line to help in the transition.
