what I would like (as this is now for work also) is the 24" ACD hooked up to the MBP and another screen hooked up to my PC next to it, however, I'd prefer to have 2 identical screens. As there doesn't seem to be a way of connecting the 24" ACD to a normal PC yet, a monitor that looks like the ACD and preferrably the same height and glossy too.
I am looking for a monitor similar to the apple cinema display, that has good picture, HDMI, DVI, and USB inputs. My budget is more or less around $200 USD.
Is there something similar to ACDSee for mac? I love using this on my PC, I don't wanna always store every single picture on IPhoto, I just want a photo browser that I can view multiple pictures without having to open each individually.
I got my first mac yesterday and was wondering if there is a feature similar to hibernating in windows in mac os x? I'm sure there will be - I just haven't stumbled across it!
Is there a way to view an install log that shows where every file is placed/created during the install of applications? If not, is there an app which has this functionality?
I just purchased a 2.4 MacBook along with IWork. I am using this for school, not video editing or special effect stuff. I have always been a PC user until today. I was wondering if iwork is almost the same at ms office? I am used to using MS Word. Is the word processing on the iworks almost the same as the MS Word? For example, can I write am essay with IWorks with all the editing I need like the MS Word? I know I purchased the IWorks but I have not open it yet. I want to know you guys feedback before I open it. I don't know whether to get MS Office 08 for Mac instead?
I've done everything I can think about to fix Handbrake, and not having any luck. Is there another program that will work the same way that Handbrake does that works well on macs? Handbrake keeps shutting off about 30% of the way in. No matter what movie it is, it shuts off.
anway, im can't stand these ads, is there anything (even for safari 3) that would block them "similar to ad block plus" in firefox? if there is nothing im not even going to see if it better suits me. since i got a dvr and all this ad blocking add ons (you can actually target an add that isn't caught by the filter and make it filter it, amazing) i absolutely can not one bit stand there and take it from all these ads
I know I can use AOL IM, but I was wondering if when I bootcamp over to my Windows 7 partition if there was a good chat program out there that has the balloon pop-ups similar to iChat.
I've reached the point where I think it's time to finally wean myself from Classic applications (and data file formats) that I currently use on my old PowerMac g4 (still running 10.3.9).
I have both a white intel iMac and a new MacBook Pro which (of course) don't run Classic (at least not without a lot of haggling with Sheepshaver, etc.), and the g4 is 6+ years old and can't last forever.
I'm looking at iWork but it looks like a mess compared to AppleWorks, which I've used for years (I also still use an OLD copy of Microsoft Works running under Classic to maintain some databases that go as far back as 1987!). And iWork doesn't even contain a database module (granted, Filemaker Pro exists for that -- but for my usage, it's overkill).
I've downloaded and am experimenting with both OpenOffice and NeoOffice. They look very similar.
I have a friend who is always sending me smileycentral emoticons and I'm wondering if there is anything like this for Mac or something similar? If not where can I find several Mac emoticons?
Is there a Mac OS X utility that does all the tasks done by Disk Cleanup utility in Windows in order to keep the operating system running as fast as possible?
What is your personal maintenance routine? Do you just do each task individually or have an all-in-one solution?
Does anyone know of any utility software for the Mac that is as robust as MacKeeper but can run on older versions of the MacOS (10.4 and below, G4 or below)? I wanted to try MacKeeper but it only runs on Intel-based Macs running 10.5.
I am in real estate and all I really need a computer for is email, and generating generic letters to prospective clients. I always used microsoft word, and out look for my day to day operations.
Does Iworks have something similar to Microsoft Word?
What year, and where would be the best place to buy Microsoft Outlook for my mac?
Someone told me you can find better prices then what Microsoft sells software for.
I have found more and more that when I am working and switching between apps etc I quite often mistake the iPhoto icon for the iWeb icon in my dock. When entrenched with work and zipping around the screen a quick glance at either icon and a reflex movement to open one of them often results in the wrong app opening. So you have to stop working, wait for the wrong app to load then close it.
Does anybody else think the two icons are too similar?
Sure I could separate them a bit more in the dock but I keep my apps in a particular order in the dock to aid my workflow. Wouldnt the best thing be to change the icon of iWeb? I think all it needs is the colour of the orange photo changing to blue or something to distinguish it more from the iPhoto icon.
Thats just me venting and kind of trying to drum up support so you will send feedback to Apple to get it changed.
I am going to purchase a photo organizing/editing program soon (probably iPhoto), but I was wondering if there are any online, free or inexpensive programs that are comparable. The program that I buy must fit this criteria:
-Sufficient storage for many digital photos (This would eliminate Picasa's free service) -Compatible with OS Tiger 10.4x -Easy organization such as thumbnail viewing (or comparable to iPhoto's "Events")
Currently, I am trying to find a used copy of iLife '08, but many seem overpriced considering that iLife '09 is out. Ideally, I would like to spend no more than $35.
I'm looking for a program that sorts out info for TV shows and movies a la Tune Up, where you drag the files to the program and it sorts it out for you.
I need an additional display for another box. I'd prefer to get one with a bit more flexibility on the inputs, but retain the IPS panel and LED backlight.
Most annoying. If I have several documents, i.e., Word, Excel, Freeway on my desktop and select one by double clicking to open it, Lion will open all the other similar documents as well. Is it the way I'm clicking in Lion or is there a way in Preferences to somehow stop this.
Is there an app similar to Microsoft Streets & Trips? I use MS Streets & Trips heavily but have small screen PC.Looking for a program that uses the big screen Mac monitor.
I use IPAD and I Mac pro, have configured office mails in both. I am unable to send mail from my mac and updating the mail is also very slow. It is also retaining all the mails and not getting refrehed with last 7 days mail... as in the I Pad. why and how do the same.
Info: MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2012), OS X Yosemite (10.10)
