Re: Printing envelopes from the Mac
Hello Antonio, Use Contacts for printing envelopes. Select the contact whose address you need to print and press Cmd-p. You’ll find everything you need in that window.

Re: Trillion question.
Hello, One thing to possibly check is to make sure your status is set to “Online” in the Status menu, access where all the other status menus like the time and Wi-Fi are. So, what you do is find the one for Trilian and VO Space on that one, find Online,and VO Space on that.Then, if it doesn’t reconnect, quit and restart the program.

Interesting Ray
Not the fact that you prefer the old smelly hoofs unsheathed Ray, but that you prefer Amadeus Pro over Sound Forge Pro. I have a friend who has just recently bought both for his Mac, but have not been in touch to hear his thoughts. He has been a long-time user of Sound Forge on the PC and has always claimed that nothing else could touch it for ease of use and a real professional feel to the finished product on which he has been working. I know that Jonathan Mosen is also a big fan of Amadeus Pro on the Mac, and you only have to listen to the quality of his recordings to know that he uses only the best. Out of interest Ray, have you a particular field of interest when it comes to recording or is it just anything and everything? Finally, do keep that old Mac rocking and rolling until it just won't rock anymore. Good machine in its youth me thinks, and probably still is. Take Care.

Re: Recommendations for noise canceling headphones
Hi! Well i haven’t had any bigger problems with them. It sometimes happens that it wont connect to a device but its often due to that it can connect to more than one device at a time. One thing i find frustrating is that it has a speech synthesizer built-in that when i for example listen to something can began to talk when finding a new device it has a connection to and connects to that device. THe speech totally interupts the thing i listen to but does not pause it so its a bit of a frustration.

Re: Recommendations for noise canceling headphones
Thanks Anders, I bought the QC 25's, the wired versions and they work great. I bought the wired versions because it was one less level of complexity to not have to deal with the potential Bluetooth problems. My main concern is that the active electronics don't fail to soon as I have read happens in some of the reviews. I'll just keep the warrantee in order and if I get a full year out of them before any problems arise I'll be happy. It is truly amazing how the outside world just fades into the background when you flip that noise cancellation switch.

Re: It's not good to believe everything you hear
Hi. Just catching up with the group e-mails. I have a Mac Mini and I Mac but don't understand why a seven year old MacMini won't work with the latest Mac Operating system. I thought as long as you have a working Mac then the new OS will work on anything providing that it has enough memory to run such as 4 to 16 of RAM. I also would not attack anyone just because they could not run the latest software as it is what we can afford asthe hard ware goes. These quality machines are expensive, much so than windows. Although both of my machines have 32 and 16 of RAM, once these machines have packed up, no idea if I'll be able to afford new machines as it depends if I'm still working. Thanks.

Re: It's not good to believe everything you hear
Hello Kawal, I’ve had Macs for 20 years now and on several occasions, the processor chips have changed meaning that an older Mac couldn’t run the latest OS. The processors in these older Macs cannot cope with the new OS, but they can carry on running El Capitan with no problem. We have an old Mac Mini that is still running Snow Leopard!

Kawal, Memory is only a small part of the hardware. There is a great deal more under the hood that plays a part in what a new OS can support. Just as there are advances in hardware design, there are advances in the OS which can be backward compatible only so far. But this does not mean we must buy new hardware if what we have performs to our expectations. From E.T.'s Keyboard...

Nowhere in my email did I say that Apple was forcing me to upgrade to Sierra. The point is that I can't do so even if I desperately wanted to without buying a new machine. Indeed, I don't agree with something being forced upon anyone. I feel the reference here is towards Microsoft and Windows 10. Believe me I am no fan of such an approach. However, here is an interesting point. I am running a 5-year-old desktop custom built machine. It has 8GB of RAM and a 1TB hard drive. Despite the speck remaining the same in every sense, including the CPU, Windows 10 is much faster than Windows 7 ever was on this machine. So, please feel free to lambast Microsoft. Times they deserve it, times they don't. I do not feel protective towards any provider of either goods or services. It is simply a financial transaction between them and myself. Long gone is the day when providers cared anything about their customers, and as far as I am concerned, the feeling is mutual. Despite that however, I strongly feel that people should pay for the goods and services they receive. This is equally true when the goods are licenced software. There are those who feel it is fine to share such products with friends and family members in breach of very clear guidelines to the contrary, but the less said about that the better. Thank goodness none of my friends subscribe to this list. Another responder points out that my Mini is, and will probably continue to function using El Capitan for a long time. I have no doubt of that and I have said as much myself. Macs are built too last. It defeats the purpose however if the hardware cannot be upgraded to match the needs of the software, at least to some degree, without buying a new machine. Here is something in my appalling ignorance that escapes me. I have a friend who bought a Mini at the same time as myself. An off the shelf Mac Mini in late 2009 had a speck of 1GB of RAM and a 128GB hard drive. He decided to double the Ram to 2GB and stay with the same size hard drive. I, on the other hand, decided on 4GB of RAM and a 500GB hard drive. As you can imagine the price difference was significant. Now, here is the point. He is also running El Capitan with abso
Ipod Battery Issue.
Ok, is this normal. I was listening to some stuff on my Ipod and I checked my battery status. by asking siri what is my battery status. Now I should menchen that my battery was at 100 Percent. I checked the battery and low and behold my battery status was at 78 percent after only a half hour of listening. So i continued listening and after a while i checked again and I was at 12 percent of my battery now the strange thing is that my Ipod shut off at 12 percent of the battery. I plugged the Ipod In and it took a half hour for it to come back up now that is strange because I know that the 0 Percent mark would be when the Ipod would totally shut down. So i just let it charge overnight i put it intolocked status because someone told me to do that other wise you are using the battery you are trying to charge, Well i today did a bible study that i do everyday, and then listened to music for about a half hour and my battery went from 100 percent to 68 percent so What in the blooming heck is happening, and how can ifix this. -- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.

Apple discontinuing the iPod?
Hi all, I just left Best Buy, and the sales person there told me that Apple has completely discontinued the iPod and that Best Buy is shipping all of its iPod stock back to Apple. I have no idea if this is true, but if you're in the market, prices on the latest Jen iPod are great right now!

Re: Apple discontinuing the iPod?
I was surprised, too. I've been thinking about upgrading my fifth GEN for a long time. Almost bought one today, the prices at Best Buy are great, you can get 64 gig for $300. But instead, I think I'm going to pay off my iPhone 7 when I get the next iPhone, and keep it as my music device. That gives me the advantage of having the faster processor, the additional storage, And The new chip. That'll give me a much nicer device, with a much longer shelf life, for only a little bit more money.

Nowhere in my email did I say that Apple was forcing me to upgrade to Sierra. The point is that I can't do so even if I desperately wanted to without buying a new machine. Indeed, I don't agree with something being forced upon anyone. I feel the reference here is towards Microsoft and Windows 10. Believe me I am no fan of such an approach. However, here is an interesting point. I am running a 5-year-old desktop custom built machine. It has 8GB of RAM and a 1TB hard drive. Despite the speck remaining the same in every sense, including the CPU, Windows 10 is much faster than Windows 7 ever was on this machine. So, please feel free to lambast Microsoft. Times they deserve it, times they don't. I do not feel protective towards any provider of either goods or services. It is simply a financial transaction between them and myself. Long gone is the day when providers cared anything about their customers, and as far as I am concerned, the feeling is mutual. Despite that however, I strongly feel that people should pay for the goods and services they receive. This is equally true when the goods are licenced software. There are those who feel it is fine to share such products with friends and family members in breach of very clear guidelines to the contrary, but the less said about that the better. Thank goodness none of my friends subscribe to this list. Another responder points out that my Mini is, and will probably continue to function using El Capitan for a long time.

Re: Apple discontinuing the iPod?
Hi guys! Really? I can't believe that apple is goign to discontinued the iPod touch. That really sucks since I actually bought an iPod touch 6 generation on December of last year! I think the best thing is to call apple itself and ask these question or email apple accessibility and so on. What do you guys think? I look forward in hearing from you soon. Thanks and God bless!

Re: Apple discontinuing the iPod?
Guys, it can’t be true, I looked at iDownloadblog and there is no articles suggesting the iPod is going. Nobody’s fault, but whoever is spreading rumours, on or off list, should give us some credible sources. It’s allright saying a guy from Best Buy has said this and that, but anybody from anywhere can make things up like that. Again, not blaming anyone here, just offering some constructive criticism to the list overall. > On 1 Oct 2016, at 19:30, Helga Schreiber wrote: > > Hi guys! Really?

Re: Apple discontinuing the iPod?
Chris, Had you paid attention, you would have noticed that my subject line contained a question mark. One reason I brought the issue to the attention of the list is because I figured someone here would have better information than the guy from BestBuy. Last I heard, asking questions was allowed on this list. So hold your criticism.

I shall add, that Apple “did” quietly discontinue the iPod Classic, so it is certainly possible that future iPods will be discontinued.

Re: Apple discontinuing the iPod?
Yeah, one thing I wondered is if people are now just using their iPhones rather than having a dedicated music player. It would kind of make sense. I'd probably do that if I didn't use Voiceover. If that's true, it could be that iPod sales have fallen off.

Hi all, A precursory Google search turned out the following links from the past two years on this topic, both rumors. from 2015 http://appleinsider.com/articles/15/06/11/ipods-disappearance-from-top-of-apple-website-signals-further-slide-into-obscurity And from earlier this year http://forums.macrumors.com/threads/ipods-being-discontinued.1960612/ Maybe a Best Buy associate has more informationthan the average consumer about what Apple is or isn’t pulling from its stores, but as usual Apple will do what it wants, everybody won’t like it, will argue over it, then get over it.

Re: Apple discontinuing the iPod?
hi Donna. How are you? if you do want to still buy an iPod touch, I recommend you to go to the Apple Store to buy one instead of going to Best Buy store LOL!! I bought my iPod touch from the Apple Store!! However, if you want you can go to the Best Buy Taurus Best Buy store and tell them that you find out that they still sell it from the Apple Store website!! hope this suggestion helps!! thanks and God bless!!

Yeah, I know. Until today, I just relied on the preview pain and focus remained there. Now though, I’m changing tactics. I’ve removed the preview pain, interact with the messages table, navigate the subject column, and if a subject interests me I can just open the message with return. If not, I delete the message with delete. It’s beautiful! Better than what I used to do.
