Hello,

My intention all along was to enable users to email their screenshots to make

In Safari, I am noticing that links that open new windows don't work. Is there

Hi. I just wrote not too long ago about the fact that my microphone, hooked to

the microphone up to my guitar amp, and the amp to my line-in port, and it
worked fine. (With the added bonus that I could put some cool

captchas so it might just be bad implementation. I know some use Flash

You could pick Line-in as your preferences sound input selection and
then use quicktime to make a new audio recording. If that fails to
produce audio in the recording then there is something wrong besides
just Skype. Could be most anything including a bad connector or cable.

Usually you need a pre-amp for a mic before it can go into a line-level
input like on the mac. Do you have such a box inline or built into the
mic? If so, those usually take power from a battery or phantom power
(which you won't have with the Mac). Maybe you have a dead battery. What

That's my thought--one channel of the mini-jack is bad. Too bad it's not an XLR
to mini cable I can just replace; this one's soldered into the mic and ends in
a mini stereo jack.

Well, toggling vo did not seem to do anything. I did, however, get it to work
by routing the mouse cursor to the vo cursor and using vo-shift-space. This

Not free, but definitely a great app. It's called Mars edit.

I didn't have any finder folders disappear on me when I upgraded to Mountain
Lion either. You really should double check your view settings though; they
shouldn't have changed but I did notice some options being reverted when I
upgraded to Mountain Lion in the Mail app.
