I also use the apple key+click to open things in a new tab on the mac when I use firefox and that is super handy. if you have a new mac, which i think you do, there are nice things built into the touchpad like 2 finger scrolling, and two finger tapping that acts like a right click.<BR/><BR/>you can also do fn+up or down arrow to page up and down in a web page. good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11218937.post-56385288631593359392009-02-06T06:35:00.000-08:002009-02-06T06:35:00.000-08:00I had to leave a note about the Mac experience as ...I had to leave a note about the Mac experience as I went through this also. My husband is Apple everything and Mr. Technology! Like TubaDad he had enough of fixing my laptop. A nice way to transition is to use VMWare (you can load XP on it) and the folks at the Apple store are really great to help with this. Though my husband does a lot whenever we have had to resort to them the customer service is beyond outstanding. Give it a try!! Trust me I so know the withdrawal you are going through :) I was so depressed when I got mine as I am a power excel user and Numbers did not bode well with me, but now I can easily use excel whenever I want! I am a convert and would never go back.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11218937.post-34607715803756099682009-02-06T06:26:00.000-08:002009-02-06T06:26:00.000-08:00Adorable pics of your hooky playing, snack eating,...Adorable pics of your hooky playing, snack eating, giggling, cuddly girlies!! <BR/><BR/>Soon..................Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06120007274654255204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11218937.post-24025358152385490352009-02-06T05:51:00.000-08:002009-02-06T05:51:00.000-08:00What did you do to anger the Bloglines gods?

I have Windows on mine and switch back and forth. There are two material things I love more than anything and they are my Mac Book Pro and my Nikon D300. What better combination could you have. If you are interested there is a Picasa version for Mac now that makes nice collages and frames. Just be patient.....like you the Windows side for me is a pain. Too many folders to deal with but I do go there to use FotoFusion because there is no Mac version.Macladiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17172253435724138598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11218937.post-617181422209323962009-02-05T19:20:00.000-08:002009-02-05T19:20:00.000-08:00Keep with the Mac.

I was going to look around for something like that.<BR/><BR/>Someone else mentioned VMware Fusion in another post. I installed that along with Windows XP before I left, but I haven't showed M3 how to use it yet. It's on the dock if you want to try it, M3. Just start it up and hit the play button on the windows desktop. Bingo, bammo, you have a Windows machine to fall back on. :-)TubaDadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09852630439322351490noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11218937.post-81594188691669662412009-02-05T18:26:00.000-08:002009-02-05T18:26:00.000-08:00this was one the first times i could see such a hu...this was one the first times i could see such a huge difference between the girls!<BR/><BR/>and i'm learning all sorts of PC tricks from you on these posts! keep posting!Emilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05629124698876808728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11218937.post-77192970392621248392009-02-05T16:53:00.000-08:002009-02-05T16:53:00.000-08:00So...my wife forwarded your blog to me and asked m...So...my wife forwarded your blog to me and asked me to post a tip.<BR/><BR/>I recently made her switch to a Mac because, well...it's just better that way. To keep her from throwing it across the room, I had to find a solution for the "missing delete key". I found this:<BR/><BR/>http://www.pqrs.org/tekezo/macosx/keyremap4macbook/<BR/><BR/>It allows you to remap what your keys do. I was able to change the "eject" key for the DVD drive to be a "forward delete" key. <BR/><BR/>Hope this helps.<BR/><BR/>Jamie.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11218937.post-49744204135976234902009-02-05T16:34:00.000-08:002009-02-05T16:34:00.000-08:00The little "fn" button in the lower left hand corn...The little "fn" button in the lower left hand corner of your keyboard, coupled with the "delete" button in the upper right hand corner should do the trick. Also, in case you didn't know yet, the control button and the mouse equals a right-click. I use Firefox on my Mac. The command button plus the letter T opens up a new tab, I find that endlessly useful. Good luck, I was apprehensive as well but once you get the hang of it you won't want to go back. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11218937.post-16233138684987510862009-02-05T16:26:00.000-08:002009-02-05T16:26:00.000-08:00They do look smug, but in that oh so adorable way....They do look smug, but in that oh so adorable way. :) It appears that they just needed a day to relax after all the excitement with their twin friends and sadness of their dad’s departure.

I am completely sold on my Mac, and it's SO reliable. I have a HP laptop at school. It's only 18 months old and it's got it's quirks already. I hope you'll learn to love your Mac.<BR/><BR/>Glad to see that the girls are feeling better. We all need a day off from school now and then.<BR/><BR/>:-)Joannahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12268912691024764398noreply@blogger.com
