Why in the world would Apple make the track pad LESS useful in OS Lion? I hate that I can't g back to the top of a web page with a singe swipe. And of course all the other gestures are totally reversed. IMHO, this was not an improvement.

View 14 Replies View RelatedI am a small business owner (professional service company) considering the switch to mac from the pc environment.I have multiple professionals in my office and we utilize a server which authorizes different users to log in to different folders. The server also stores our customer database which each of our users logs into in order to work. Our server also provides each of the connected computers in our office with access to the internet. It has a firewall which helps to limit security issues. We have outlook as our mail and the e-mail is stored on our server. How would I replicate all of this (or better yet, improve upon it) in the world of mac?

Just wondering if it's worth getting a machine with 8Gb of RAM over the standard 4Gb for things like video editing, aperture etc. Can most of today's apps even use 8 gigs of memory? I assume the biggest advantage would be for running a virtual windows machine within OSX and things like that.
View 24 Replies View RelatedI am using MacBook Air with OSX Lion. I need to input Chinese characters using the track pad and I have set it up in the Preference > Language.Â
I called out Pages, started the track pad inputing area. I write on the track pad, it can display the stroke I write on the pad and suggested the characters. Then I choose the charater for input. However, nothing was input to the pages. The curser did not move. If I input using the keyboard, it is OK to input what I type. It just did not respond to the track pad.Â

View 1 Replies View RelatedMy Macbook Air (running lion) is consuming a large amount of bandwidth. Yesterday 20GB of data were uplodaded. I don't know which program(s) is doing it.
I'm not doing any of the obvious things that might lead to such usage: I don't use torrents, watch internet movies, etc. Even when I'm doing nothing, or have the browsers closed, I'm uploading between 32 kbs and sometimes 3 mbps. Activity monitor shows total network usage, but it doesn't break it down by program. Is there a way to make activity monitor do that? I've installed little snitch, but no program that it tracks is taking up enough bandwidth to account for the usage I'm seeing.
I'd like to be able to hook a mouse up to Macbook Air and have it scroll properly, without breaking the scroll direction on its trackpad (or my magic pad). In other words, I want to disable "Move content in the direction of finger movement when scrolling" for mice, and enable "Scroll direction: natural" for trackpads. These seem to be the same setting, though, as checking/unchecking one has the same effect on the other.Â
How can I do this, as I'd love to be able to easily switch to a mouse, without having to mentally reverse the direction of the scroll wheel.

I am from Pakistan and studying masters in korea, I am thinking to purchase a macbook pro. but when i visited the macbook store website i got a shocking difference in price! Macbook pro 13-inch: 2.4ghz core i5 price on apple store is mentioned as $1,199.00.But for the same model with exactly same specs on apple stores' website of korea the price is 155000Won (aprox. $1357.8).why is this price difference in purchasing macbook from korea and other countries? is this because of only korean keyboard prints?  So i am not a korean, and i don't need korean keyboard then is it possible to get the macbook from korea in same price as it is mentioned on website $11909!?

basically my wallpaper image flashes and any windows I have minimized to the Dock expand whenever iTunes changes tracks. It's not a huge problem, but it can be a bit of a pain (there, it just happened again, I had to minize stuff in order to get back to this window).

How can I get the mail app to stop prompting me to set it up when I log in. I have no interest in using the Mail app, and if I could I would delete it (alas it is a required application and I cannot do that). I use google mail and outlook as a client, and I would really just like the Mail app to leave me alone. I have changed all the file associations, and I have checked that mail is not one of the "start on login" apps under my profile.Â
