Hi,
Hello,
I am still using mavericks on my macbook air 2012 (4gb ram) and have the
following questions :
1. When I do 2 fingers down on my trackpad to read the text from the
cursor to the bottom, the cursor is jumping every time to the beginning of the
document and starts reading from there.

Of course, shift & cmd + a will open finder with all the applications for easy

Hi Gigi,
Giving the table a custom name and selecting to show table name would solve
your problem. Unfortunately, renaming tables in Pages is a bit of a pain.
Basically you need to go to cell A1, turn on mouse keys, move the mouse pointer
up a bit until it’s over the table name, and then click

Hi Jonathan,
thanks for your help. I tried it out and it worked partially. What seemed to
happen is that the mouse cursor is routed to VO cursor. But no click happens.
As far as I can understand the script there's no action defined for that. Is
that true?
So I wonder wether you are willing to a
Hi Alex,
thanks a lot. It worked so far that the mouse performed a click but obviously
it was not a normal click but a hold down click. So I had to release the mouse
cursor manually. Could you have a look on the script and help me to understand,
wether I’mright in this?
And are you willing to a
Right now I tried the following:
I deleted „command down“ in the line which should perform the click. It seems
to work most of the time. Funnily enough it still performs a hold down mouse
key from time to time. But what’s mor of an issue: the click doesn’t always

You are absolutely right, I did not put in code for clicking the mouse.
You will need either
tell mouse to click once
or possibly just
click once
The click command has an optional argument so you could say

Hello all,
I recently changed things around to run bootcamp on my air. What I am wondering

Remember that you must have an Airdrop window open on the Mac or the iPad won't
see it. Plus, there are a few 2011 Macs that lack the necessary bluetooth
hardware, but I don't recall which ones they are.

Hi,
I may be able assist you in my solution regarding the boot order when I was
running Windows in bootcamp. You may think about these.
1. You could set the boot default when on the Windows side in system

Hi,
Yes, and in the Finder:
• cmd-o on file.zip. (The Mac has a built-in unzipper, so, nothing special to

• cmd-c on the app from the subsequent window and cmd-v into the Applications
folder.
GUI or Terminal, simple process.

Hello Gigi,
I’ve just tested this with the new version of Pages that was released this week
so I know it works.
In the Table formatter, make sure that the Table Name check box is checked.
Navigate to cell A1. Bring the mouse and turn on Mouse keys.
Press the 8 key repeatedly until you hear A ref

I just did this yesterday using comma successfully, Just ignore the

You don't need to do either if you don't want to. Start typing, and when the
Mac offers the correct suggestion, just press enter. You can then start typing
the next person, enter, type the next, and so on. I never separate names with

If you want just basic creation, editing and saving of documents then

you want more advanced features then yes, you will have to subscribe,
which can be done inside the app.
