Apple has officially released OS X El Capitan for download.
OS X El Capitan, the latest version of the Mac operating system, builds on the groundbreaking features and beautiful design introduced in OS X Yosemite, refining the experience and improving performance in lots of ways that you’ll enjoy everyday.
Make the most of your screen with Split View. • Focus on two apps at once – neatly arranged side by side — in full screen without distractions.
Take control of your desktop with Mission Control. • View all your open windows in a single layer with no overlap, so you can instantly find that window you’re looking for. • Create a new desktop space easily by dragging a window to the top of your screen.
Smarter search in Spotlight. • Search for weather, stocks, sports, web video, and transit information right in Spotlight. • Use your own words to search for files on your Mac, like “Documents I edited yesterday.” • Resize the Spotlight window and move it anywhere on the screen.
Handy improvements in Mail. • Use your trackpad to manage your inbox with a swipe, just like on iPhone. Swipe right to mark as read or unread, or swipe left to delete. • Mail automatically suggests contacts and events from your messages to help you keep your Contacts and Calendar organized. • An improved full-screen view lets you switch between your inbox and your draft email messages.
A simple and powerful all-new Notes app. • Format your notes with titles, paragraph headings, bullets, numbers, and checklists. • Save rich content like photos, videos, documents, PDFs, web links, and map locations. • Easily search and browse the content from all your notes in the Attachments Browser. • Add content to a note directly from other OS X apps using the Share menu. • Create notes on your Mac and they’ll automatically sync to your iOS devices using iCloud.
New ways to organize and enhance your images in Photos. • Photos automatically organizes your library and helps you edit like a pro with simple and powerful editing tools. • Access your library on all your devices with iCloud Photo Library. • Add or edit location data, and batch change titles, descriptions, and keywords. • Sort your albums and the photos in them by date, title, and more. • Use third-party editing extensions to take your photo editing to the next level.
Better surfing in Safari. • Keep your favorite websites open, up to date, and easily accessible with Pinned Sites. • Choose a font and theme for Reader, including Sepia and Night themes. • Mute web page audio from the Smart Search field.

New fonts. • Designed for Retina displays, beautiful system font San Francisco is crisp, clear and space efficient. • PingFang (苹方), the new Chinese system font, is designed for crisp readability in both Simplified and Traditional Chinese. • Hiragana Sans, the Japanese system font, now features additional weights. • Four new Japanese fonts let you add a personal touch to documents and presentations.
Improved input methods for Chinese and Japanese. • Type Chinese more quickly with an improved character prediction engine and a smarter candidate window. • Write multiple Chinese characters using the trackpad and the new, roomier Trackpad window. • Live conversion automatically transforms Hiragana into written Japanese as you type.
