Hi Lindsay, To find out what the problem is, it would be helpful if you could provide some more detailed explanation on what works, and what does not work. Can you use quitter at all yet? One possible cause could be a problem with the keys you press or have configured.
On an average windows keyboard, the alt is the first key to the left of your spacebar, the windows key is the second key and is to the left of it, and the control key is the third, one more to the left. If you have been using windows on a normal pc, this is probably the layout that you are used to. On a mac however, when using fusion, the command key is not mapped to the alt key like one would expect, nor is the option key mapped to your windows key. By default, if you have not changed this yourself, then inside vmware fusion, it is the other way around. Your command key, left of the spacebar, becomes your windows logo key, and the option key, second key left of the spacebar, becomes your alt key inside windows. For quitter in windows, you need windows plus control plus another key, so if alt and windows keys happen to be swapped because of the default behavior in fusion, then this might be the cause of qwitter not working. On my machine, quitter inside fusion runs smoothly without a problem. So I think what you are experiencing is either a pebkac or a configuration issue. Are you working on a mac laptop? Can you experiment, to see if the keys you hold down for quitter are the correct ones? Could it be that you have a configuration problem inside quitter? If you want, please explain a bit more about your problem. I think it can be easily solved if you provide some extra info. On Sep 27, 2011, at 7:59 AM, Lindsay Yazzolino wrote: > Thanks.
