Hi!
Ok when in the groups table just sit on the title of that group and press enter

option to rename should be there!

Hi,
No, the Last Import group is a built-in group that’s part of the app, so, it’s
not modifiable. The best thing to do in this case would be to select the
group, navigate to the list of members, cmd-a to Select All, then go under the
File menu and choose “New Group from Selection”.

the mac OS treats the caps lock key not as an actual key press, but as a more
low-level system wired event. and neither Fusion nor bootcamp have access to
that key. there is no caps lock available when running Windows on the mac via
bootcamp or fusion. What needs to be done is to remap a key to

This is in boot camp, and things might not work that way in fusion or on

Yes, agreed. When using Boot Camp, Windows has complete control of the keyboard
so the caps lock key works absolutely fine for screen reading commands. The
only issues would be when using software like Fusion or VMWare to run Windows
in a virtual machine.
