OK. Three thing for staters.
First of all I would like iPhoto to stay away from everything that
even smells like a jpg. And I want to tell the systmen to open all
jpgs using the "Preview" utility unless I drop them on the
Photoshop icon.
Select a jpeg file, and do "Get Info" Click the reveal arrow by 'Open
With' and select Preview. There's a button there that says "Change
all like this" (or something to that effect) press it. This should
take care of the issue.
It worked. Thanks. The info-box was the last palce on earth to look.
*Fonts are complicated, because there's many different places to put
them....
/Library/Fonts: fonts available to all users of the computer
/Users/<username>/Library/Fonts: fonts available only to that user
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Fonts: Adobe's effort to just
plain screw everything up.
/System/Library/Fonts : Fonts the system depends upon. Some programs
won't run if the proper font isn't here. Like all things in /System
leave them the <bleep> alone.
Being neurotic about fonts: how do I take control over them?
OS X is NOT OS 9, not only is there no need to get into the system
and futz, doing so can really screw things up.
Good. I like that.
The best advice I can suggest for the recently migrated is hands off
until you learn the new organization, and resist the urge to 'fine
tune' things..it will be like a confident VW Bug home mechanic trying
to tune an old Ferrari with 6 two barrel carbs...You will soon be in
over your head and messing things up.
