Re: iTunes Radio Revisited

Can only hope its not too long in coming to the U.k, in the meantime you can 
enjoy Spotify through your IOS device as that App is pretty easy to navigate 
through.

Spotify was Re: iTunes Radio Revisited

2014-02-18 Thread Chris H
I was going to mention this but forgot. But I wouldn't call this 
integration at least in the sense that it doesn't come as part of the 
operating system. But yes Spotify is close, very close indeed. For 
example I can lock the screen and media player controls appear in the 
lock screen. Shame Spotify crashes quite a bit at least on my iPad mini. 
Anybody else experiencing this? I tried to contact Spotify but can't 
find a place in the app.

help configuring a new Macbook Pro

2014-02-18 Thread Donal Fitzpatrick
Hi folks,

I have hit a wee snag setting up a new Macbook Pro.  Many of the keyboard 
shortcuts I’ve used in the past no longer seem to work.  For example, ctrl-f2 
for menu and ctrl-f3 for Doc.  I’ve enabled the appropriate setting in the 
Keyboard settings to ensure function keys behave as normal.

If anyone can think of a reason why they have disappeared that would be great.

Cheers,

Dónal

I’m not sure why these shortcuts should have vanished. Have you checked the 
Keyboard Shortcuts section of System Preferences? Perhaps they are unchecked in 
there for some reason. I’m not sure why they should be , but it’s the most 
likely possibility I can think of.

 Dónal,
 I’m not sure why these shortcuts should have vanished. Have you checked the 
 Keyboard Shortcuts section of System Preferences? Perhaps they are unchecked 
 in there for some reason. I’m not sure why they should be , but it’s the 
 most likely possibility I can think of.
 Best,

 Hi folks,
 
 I have hit a wee snag setting up a new Macbook Pro.  Many of the keyboard 
 shortcuts I’ve used in the past no longer seem to work.  For example, 
 ctrl-f2 for menu and ctrl-f3 for Doc.  I’ve enabled the appropriate setting 
 in the Keyboard settings to ensure function keys behave as normal.
 
 If anyone can think of a reason why they have disappeared that would be 
 great.
 
 Cheers,

Subject: Spotify was Re: iTunes Radio Revisited

I was going to mention this but forgot. But I wouldn't call this
integration at least in the sense that it doesn't come as part of the
operating system. But yes Spotify is close, very close indeed. For
example I can lock the screen and media player controls appear in the
lock screen. Shame Spotify crashes quite a bit at least on my iPad mini.
Anybody else experiencing this? I tried to contact Spotify but can't
find a place in the app.

Wireless Headset For Chatting And Mac: Plantronics Audio 955

2014-02-18 Thread Dane Trethowan
I've been testing this headset for the last 15 minutes and am very happy with 
the performance given, I can walk around my house without the headset dropping 
audio or without noticing any degradition in audio quality.

The Audio 995 doesn't use Bluetooth Wireless.

The headset consists of 2 parts, the Headset itself and a dongle which plugs 
into your Mac's USB port.

The headset is lightly coosioned on both ears and is comfortable though perhaps 
a little heavy.

The headset contains controls for volume, track navigation with iTunes and a 
Power button.

Charging of the internal battery is done via the Mini USB port located on the 
left hand side.

The boom microphone swivils down and can be further adjusted to angle near the 
mouth.

This headset is thoroughly recommended for Skype, Facetime though a headset 
with more depth and detail would be preferred for music listening though for 
$50 this headset certainly is a bargain.

zNo specific installation procedure is required and no software is necessary to 
drive this headset, just plug in, charge and away you go for around 8 hours of 
talk.

 No I don't think you can but this wasn't nor is a deal breaker for me.

The reviews I read on this headset did make a big point of this but I thought 
they were over emphasising this slight irritation given that the battery can 
charge very quickly and you get such a good life out of it.

 I've been testing this headset for the last 15 minutes and am very 
 happy with the performance given, I can walk around my house without 
 the headset dropping audio or without noticing any degradition in audio
quality.
 
 The Audio 995 doesn't use Bluetooth Wireless.
 
 The headset consists of 2 parts, the Headset itself and a dongle which 
 plugs into your Mac's USB port.
 
 The headset is lightly coosioned on both ears and is comfortable 
 though perhaps a little heavy.
 
 The headset contains controls for volume, track navigation with iTunes 
 and a Power button.
 
 Charging of the internal battery is done via the Mini USB port located 
 on the left hand side.
 
 The boom microphone swivils down and can be further adjusted to angle 
 near the mouth.
 
 This headset is thoroughly recommended for Skype, Facetime though a 
 headset with more depth and detail would be preferred for music 
 listening though for
 $50 this headset certainly is a bargain.
 
 zNo specific installation procedure is required and no software is 
 necessary to drive this headset, just plug in, charge and away you go 
 for around 8 hours of talk.

 No I don't think you can but this wasn't nor is a deal breaker for me.

The reviews I read on this headset did make a big point of this but I
thought they were over emphasising this slight irritation given that the
battery can charge very quickly and you get such a good life out of it.
