Re: Screen Curtain (was Kindle now accessible on IOS with Voiceover()
I wondered about that. If what you're saying is right, it's a real shame. I thought the screen curtain might just kill all light to the screen, thereby conserving battery. Have you actually tested this, have you? What did you do and what were the results? It's very interesting.

Re: buying a season pass for a TV show on iTunes?
Aye, addictive it is. and costly, especially when you get hooked on something like Big Bang Theory which is now in its sixth season. I haven't watched TV in many years, but I love downloading shows like this, which are largely dialogue driven, through iTunes so I can watch them whenever I like.

Hi Stacy, Basically, it means that you buy the whole season, and you get to download the episodes as they're released. So, if next September I buy a season pass for Big Bang Theory season 7, each week the new episode will be downloaded to my device. It's also about $.60 cheaper than buying each episode individually. And Nick is right, having TV shows on your Mac or i-devices is much, much easier than fiddling around with DVDs.

Re: TV Series Question
HI Jane, Why do you want SD instead of HD? When syncing to an iDevice there's always the option to use SD for movies and TV shows. Anyway, apparently if you go to the iTunes Store, interact with the Web Content Area or whatever name it goes by, and then click on the Purchased link, down the bottom there will be a checkbox which says download in HD when available. You can uncheck this, delete all your HD TV shows, and when you re-download them they'll be in SD. I found this solution from the following discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3937050?start=0tstart=0 Hope this helps.

Hi, yes. I have a little bit of usable vision so, I turned my screen brightness up to 100%. Next, I went to settings/general/accessibility and inverted the colors and turned on the screen curtain.

Re: next/previous message in Mail?
Hi, If the Conversation thread is not expanded, you can do it a few ways. When you press return, the entire thread of messages will open in separate window things. If you press Delete, the top message will be deleted and the next message will gain focus. If you press cmd-w, the entire thread closes so that is not your best command in this situation. Also, you could Stop Interacting with the message area then you can simply VO-right or VO-left through the thread, and you'll be able to listen to each message fully one at a time. HTH. Later...

RE: next/previous message in Mail?
I turn QuickNav off and use right and left arrow keys to expand or collapse messages. When reading messages, I press enter on the first message I wish to read and then use VO+J to move to the message content area. As soon as I'm finished with the message, I hit command+delete to get rid of the message. I then land on the next message where I can simply press VO+J again to read the content of the message I am now focused on. This seems to work well for me.

Re: next/previous message in Mail?
Wow, pressing enter on a closed thread, then un-interacting and moving left and right, works wonderfully! Thanks for the tip!

When you press return, the entire thread of messages will open in separate window things. If you press Delete, the top message will be deleted and the next message will gain focus. If you press cmd-w, the entire thread closes so that is not your best command in this situation. Also, you could Stop Interacting with the message area then you can simply VO-right or VO-left through the thread, and you'll be able to listen to each message fully one at a time. HTH. Later...

Saving files in pages
Hey guys, If I write up a file in pages, how do I send it to someone that has word? Can it be saved as a word file, or can they just open a file in word? So many people have windows, know what I mean? Any help would be appreciated. Just want the best way to handle this.

Re: Saving files in pages
Depending on how fancy your formatting is you should be able to just go to File then Export and then either Word or RTF. Of course the conversion is never perfect because Word is a proprietary format and Microsoft isn't about to share details that would enable competition. Most text editors/wordprocessors should be able to at least output as RTF and you can always 'print' to a PDF but that usually means they can't edit it.

Re: Saving files in pages
Hi, In TextEdit, when you are in the Save, dialog, there is a pop-up menu for Rich Text Format (RTF), activate that pop-p to choose other formats. In Pages, in the Save dialog, check the box for Save a Copy, then the Word format will become active. In both the case of Pages for sure and possibly in TextEdit, if you have iCloud document syncing enabled, you'll need to choose a different location than iCloud in order to make these choices available.

Saving files in pages
Hi If it's something where formatting doesn't matter and they just want to read what you've written, just paste the text into the body of an email and you will know anyone can read it. Other advantages of this method: a lot lighter on people's data plans if they are using a mobile device. Also cuts down on all that pesky quick look/save attachments stuff.

Re: Saving files in pages
They can be opened. Keep in mind though, that if you're working from a word created template, some extra formatting may be required. Also, make sure you're using a windows compatible font. A lot of pc's don't have Helvetica. Egun On, Lagunak! Basque for G'day, Mates Louie P.

Importing all music in to iTunes, what's the secret?
Okay, the subject line says it all. I have all my music in folders organized by artist, with each of their albums in folders with their name. Now I am using the mac for this task, and when I go to import, I go to the folder, open it, let all the rows of artist to be displayed, then click open. It says it is importing all of the music, but when I go to look for some music, under a artists name, there is clearly some albums missing. More than 2 or 3 also. So what is the trick, to make sure iTunes doesn't skip any of these albums? I have already tried Google, that's why I am here now.
