Hi Dan,
You asked: when I hit vo, shift and M the computer just dings.
nothing else
TK: You are using the VO keys, ctrl-option when I say VO? That is a
basic VO function to press VO-shift-m to bring up the Contextual
menu. I'm not sure why that wouldn't be working for you. I guess you
could also try routing the mouse to the VO cursor position by pressing
ctrl-option-cmd-f5 (add the fn key on a laptop), then holding down the
ctrl key while pressing the physical mouse button (or trackpad button
on a laptop). This also will bring up the Contextual menu.

Hi Dan,
You asked: What would be the best way to get lots and lots of
pictures from my i mac to my new lap top. They wont all fit on to
one cd and I dont know where to find the file where all the photos
are stored to divide them to split them onto several cd's. the only
thing I have found is a file to copy an entire i photo library and
that will not fit onto one cd...
TK: If you had a DVD, you could copy them onto it instead of a
CD. The capacity of the DVD is huge in comparison. If that's not
an option, you can go into your home directory, expand the iPhoto
Library and then divide it up onto CDs that way. To do this
process, follow these instructions:
• Go to the Finder.
• Press cmd-shift-h to open your Home directory.
• Navigate to the Pictures folder and open it.
• Locate the item named iPhoto Library.
• Press VO-shift-m to bring up its Contextual menu.
• Choose "Show Package Contents".
This will expand the iPhoto Library so that you'll be able to see
the folders within that contain the jpeg images. You can then fill
up your CDs and burn them.
