  • In power mac g5, how to take Automatic Screen Shot with Date

    in power mac g5, how to take Automatic Screen Shot with Date ?
    please help me

    If you are standing by, and activating the process by keyboard
    you could be sure to include the open Date Time menu bar
    image in a complete screenshot, using cmd shift 3. Or outline
    the area you want if not full-screen, by using cmd shift 4.
    The command button may also have an apple icon on it.
    So that's the three key shortcuts for full & partial screen.
    For a more automated method, perhaps try using software to
    run an AppleScript, like Automator. Then write a script or find
    one that you can modify to do tasks and test it.
    There may be other methods, however identifying your intent
    would be higher on the list at this time; to narrow the method.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • How can I take lion off of my MacBook Pro and go back to using Snow Leopard

    How can I take lion off of my MacBook Pro because it has too much problems with the new operating system, I have talked to Apple support for both computers and still nothing happens I think they know that there's something wrong and they don't know how to fix it are there working on fixing it. So how can I put snow leopard Mac on my computer so that it works every time, there's a lot of good features in Lion but there's a lot of bad features and especially when it comes to turning on your computer and the memory that it has held so if one item is missing then it doesn't work and you have to reboot the computer to get it to work but I still like my Mac.

  • Screen stuck on gray, used shift key and my screen appears with MacBook Pro and not the recovery option. Please help

    Screen stuck on gray, used shift key and my screen appears with MacBook Pro and not the recovery option. Please help!

    Hi ..
    Shift key boots into Safe Mode, not Recovery.
    This only works on a Mac running v10.7 Lion or later.
    Startup your Mac while holding down the Command + R keys. From there you should be able to access the built in utilities to repair the startup disk and restore OS X using OS X Recovery
    If you can't boot into Recovery Mode, help here >   Mac OS X: Gray screen appears during startup

  • Screen shots on MacBook Pro running Windows XP?

    I'm trying to take some screen shots on my MacBook Pro while it's running XP. I know on a Windows machine there is a key for "Print Screen". Is there a keyboard equivalent for the MacBook? Or if not, is there another way to get a screen capture while running XP? Thanks in advance
    Randy

    I am trying to figure out the same thing. Did anyone figure out how to take a simple screenshot on the macbook pro in windows xp? Ive tried the alt + ctrl + P... that seems to want to print things. What is the equivilent to the print screen button from a dell machine to a macbook pro machine?
    Thanks!
