You do have preview, though. Look in your applications folder. Alternatively, if you just do a command o on the pdf you want to read, it will automatically open in preview. Then you can just read it. hth, Caitlyn On Mar 28, 2014, at 10:01 PM, Jean Parker wrote: > Hello All: > What is the best

The other way to do this is longer, but you should know it just in case. Put your cursor anywhere on the misspelled word and bring up the context menu with vo-shift-m. The first items are the spelling suggestions; move to one and hit enter to use it. Below these are the "ignore" and "learn" opti

Re: spell check primer

Correct, though I'm surprised you can do much of anything in text with Quicknav enabled. I tend to have it off 95% of the time, and only use it to get around webpages or large windows like iTunes. Oh, I don't know if anyone mentioned these, but cmd-semicolon will move you to the next misspelled

Yes, you might try switching it to desktop mode. I admit that I stopped using menuTab once I realized that it has always simply presented the website pages. I always have Safari open, so it doesn't matter to me whether I have a standalone application for Facebook. Yorufukouru has a different int

keeping old GarageBand version after Upgrading to V10

Is it possible to upgrade to GB V10 from V6.0.5 and still be able to use V6.0.5? I ask because I see that upgrading to Mavericks automatically upgraded iMovie, while putting the older version in a folder of its own, presumably for using both versions. GB did not get the same treatment and I stil
