Re: Creating keyboard shortcuts broken
I can create application shortcuts without trouble, my problem is with creating shortcuts for Services items. These are the ones that show up in the Services menu. I have several that I created a long time ago such as New TextEdit Window Containing Selection, but I can't create new ones. The Add button simply doesn't work.

Re: From iDisk to SkyDrive
Cool. What about sharing your files with other folks? Say I put a file up there and want you or somebody else to have access to it? Can that be done? Do we share folders like on Drop Box or else how does that work? Sincerely, The Constantly Barefooted Ray!!! Now a very proud and happy Mac user!!!

Re: From iDisk to SkyDrive
Us older hotmail users get 25 GB of free storage. I love my sky drive, the only issue I have, is when trying to open a document through the IOS app on my iPhone 4s, it won't open.

Re: streeming iphone content on imac?
I was just trying to figure this out myself. The phone does have VGA output with the little Apple dongle cable but most video conference systems don't take VGA input to share the display. They usually rely on some kind of software you install to share the screen directly to the network. Maybe Apple has something special that does take input. What I'm currently thinking about is a VGA to USB encoder which gets a live video feed into my Mac and from there I hope to feed that into Skype or the like. In particular I was considering the Epiphan VGA2USB box. Currently I use something called an Elmo which is a small camera and stand thing which was cumbersome to transport and you had to get everything aligned just right and then not move the iPhone or iPad.

Re: Creating keyboard shortcuts broken
There is an "add application shortcut," button, and I was able to get a shortcut created, but only as an experiment, as that app was bound more effectively elsewhere. However, one thing that I cannot get it to do is replicate the "menu command," which the shortcut creation editor asks for: as in, "please enter the menu command exactly as shown." I never got that part to work. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Hello Krister, I assure you that no one is utterly stupid (smile). I prefer Sky Drive to Dropbox for a myriad of reasons that I will not list here; my point is that there is something for everyone. Nothing more or less. As for the SkyDrive iOS App in order to bring up all of the marvelous options available, one must double tap the screen.

Re: Creating keyboard shortcuts broken
Hello Jonathan, No, that does not solve my problem. I interact with the second column, and if there is already a shortcut assigned, I can change it. However, if there is no shortcut assigned, the Add button does nothing. This is broken in OS x 10.7.3 and 10.7.4. Before that, there was no Add button, just an editable field. I reported the problem to Accessibility, but have had no reply. Cheers, Anne On 23 May 2012, at 19:45, Jonathan C.

And, just chiming in here, I didn't use Keyboard shortcuts in system prefs to bind F13 to "say time." I used an app called "spark," and a "say time," script to bind it. I still cannot bind F14 and F15 to anything, as they are currently bound to slide screen display brightness up or down. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

question about checkers wise pro
Hi all, I downloaded checkers wise for my ipad because I love their chess program and thought the checkers would be just as good. Well I can’t get it to do anything, every move I seem to make it says is illegal, and I can’t get it to do anything much really . I’m extremely disappointed because I know the app is great but I can’t get it to work. What I’m doing is double tapping the piece I want to move, and then double tapping the square I want to move it to. The squares are numbered, or seem to be anyway, but the numbers don’t really make sense and I can’t move diagonally like you’re supposed to do in checkers. Maybe I’ll stick to chess, but I’d like to get this program working. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm a university student and also someone who's part time employ that do alot of multitasking on my computer. So, features like capability of multitasking, will definitely a must for me. however, i don't necessary need to access to CD drive although having it could be a bonus. At the moment, i have a 22inch secondhand IMac, and also the possibility of having a 24Inch second hand IMac in the near future. I also have extensive experience with IPhone and IPad2. My question is, what is the different from MBA with 1.8GHZ to MBP with 2.8GHZ in terms of speed, capability, and multitasking ability? Also, if i go down the path of havine an ipad3, will it be sort of wasting the vallue of having MBA, and should go directly for MBP instead? I am well aware, and do realize that the physical size and weight of MBA and MBP are different. But if we put the size and weight aside, what are the plus and miness to having MBA compare to MBP? Your advice and opinion is very much appreciated. Thanks Joanne -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: From iDisk to SkyDrive
Hello Mark. Thanks for your informative message. I have the following questions. 1. I thought you could put your documents in the Cloud. 2. Are you sure that Apple will not replace I disk with something else as I understood they would be launching I disk again under a new form as Apple were not sure what they would do with I disk. Just my reflections. Kawal. On 23 May 2012, at 03:03 AM, "M.

Re: Either i'm utterly stupid or...
Yeah I like Dropbox. Another service I've been looking at is Aero FS. You can share files easily. And, you can choose to have your stuff sync to the cloud, or not. You get infinite storage. http://www.aerofs.com On May 23, 2012, at 4:07 AM, Krister Ekstrom wrote: > Skydrive is outright clumcy to say the least.

Either i'm utterly stupid or...
Skydrive is outright clumcy to say the least. Nowhere did i find a way to share folders with others like you do in Dropbox. You can't do anything at all except putting files in the skydrive folder with the mac app that seems to require being open in the background all the time, but why it has to be like that is beyond me since you can't do anything of what you can do with Dropbox, neither share nor browse folders on the site nor anything, the app just sits there, although i think it's used to synchronize between server and folders of your devices. As i stated in the subject line, i may be utterly stupid and totally miss the obvious, but if not, i have to say that i can't recommend Skydrive to anyone despite the size. Dropbox rules in my book. /Krister -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

touch fire cover experiences for the ipad
Hello all, I have done a pre-order for a touch fire cover (keyboard) for the ipad from www.touchfire.com. It's a cover that makes the letters on the keyboard tactile. I have red on the side that the first release of the product was a few weeks ago. So: is here someone who has such cover and: is it possible to type on the ipad with 10 fingers (like you do on a normal keyboard? Can you activate buttons on the ipad like maken a new mail or send a mail without removing the cover? in global: is it what you have expected or is it better/worser? kind regards for your answers, William Windels -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.

Re: Extreme mail weirdness! Am I being spammed? Is it a virus on the Mac?
After much googling and endless frustration with emails which just kept reappearing after I deleted them multiple times from my inboxes, I removed all my mailboxes and added them again. This seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks for the suggestions. I still don't know what caused such a thing to happen, but it was extremely irritating.
