Mac – Making the Mac More Left-Hand Friendly

accessibilitymacosnotifications

I am a left handed Mac user and I find that some features are not left hand friendly. In particular Notifications is quite bothersome. Most of the time my cursor is over near the left hand edge of the screen; that is the part of the workspace I tend to operate from and when an email notification comes up I have to move my cursor nearly across the full diagonal of the screen to get to the banner before it disappears. I quite often don’t get it. If there was a way to make the Notifications appear on the left hand side of the screen that would be great. Does anyone know of a way to do that?

Unfortunately, you can't change the location where Notification Center Alerts and Banners appear. This is a huge gripe of mine as well, and I highly encourage you to complain about this issue to Apple here:
