Are there simple user instructions for elderly people?

I bought a 2Gb Nano for my 82 year old dad. All he wants to do is learn how to use the basic functions to listen to the music I have already dowloaded for him. Are there some very simple user instructions available for IT-unsophisticated and elderly people?

Hello Peejay1,
These links are for iPod beginners, hopefully they are the type of thing you are looking for. Check out particularly the links within them to video tutorials, all the best.

Are there any Installation instructions for adding an MCE internal Blu-Ray burner to a Mac Pro(2013) running OS X Montain Lion?

Looking for any installation instructions or assistance in adding hardware (MCE internal blu-ray burner multi-drive14x) to my Mac Pro system running the latest version of OS X Mountain Lion.

Ask the vendor if they provide installation instructions. Otherwise, do a Google search for links on installing optical devices in a Mac Pro.

Are there any user problems for the new iMac 27"?

I am moving from Windows 8 enviornment to iMac. Just wondering if there have been any irreconcilable issues with this computer?

We made the jump in December and have not had any issues. I added Parallels for the couple of programs I could not find suitable equivilants on the Mac. So far we have been very pleased.

Interface for elderly people

Hi,
Anybody knows if there is a version of Skype that would work on Adroid tablet that whould be adapted for elderly people? (No complex interface, large text and buttons, simple logic, simple management for more than one call at the same time, etc.) (It could be interesting to show the caller if the person is already talking with somebody, so we do not need to stress with 2 calls at same time)
Or if people at Skype (Microsoft) are working on it or already got this idea for a necessary thing if we want to include elderly people in our day-to-day connections?
Any estimated date of availability?

That's actually a good idea (but I don't think such a version exists, at least officially). There's a company in Sweden (Doro) making cell phones and smartphones with easy, big-button interfaces and simple functionality - primarily aimed at the elderly. Their stocks are up because they have apparently caught onto a big and growing market.

Is there a user guide for iFog?

is there a user guide for iFog?

Julian,
iFog is not MY factious term for iCloud. It's a term that is used by many people who are frustrated with iCloud. I frequently hear it in every coffee shop in Cupertino.
Regarding your statement about the "link to the User Guide for iCloud available from every page of the iCloud website by clicking the Help link or the ? icon." that raised another interesting question. Yes, I see the ? on the top page of the iCloud site. If I go, for instance, to the Contacts page, and do a Safari search for 'help' it reports one occurrence, but highlights none. Thinking I might not be seeing the highlighting, I search for the single letter 'h'. Safari search reports six occurrences of 'h', but as I click through the forward/back search arrows, the 'h' in the word home is, and stays highlighted.
If you are correct that there is a link "from every page of the iCloud website," those links may for some reason be hidden on my system -- using the MacBook now. Nevertheless, they are not accessible.
Unfortunately, my contacts have all disappeared from two of my machines again. The Contact help that I did find said to go top Apple>System Preferences>MobilMe, which no longer exists. <sigh>
But thanks for your help.

Skype for elderly people

I am evaluating the use of Skype for elderly people. This is aimed at housebound people who can't use a PC and would require a TV based system.
The main use would be the support of elderly people by family, friends, Social Services, doctors etc.
I was interested to learn that you can play chess with Skype.
Are there any plans to develop other games such as Bridge, Whist and other board games?

The TV manufacturer is the one that is in the end creating the Skype interface for the TV, so it really is up to them on what they add.

If i am the only user and owner of my macbook, then why are there 78 users in the directory editor?

Hi guys just wanted to know little bit about the open directory as my MacBook Pro has been playing up on and off at least a couple of years. I have been advised by Apple over the phone or as well as over the genius bar in trying to get my mac to behave. This normally solves whatever problem that has been happening at the time. "Great, job done!"... Not so much, as another problem eventually shows it's ugly pixelated face again and then we end up going round the Infinite loop ride one more time... And this ride ain't always free! I have forked out about £600 on it so far and it wasn't cheap in the beginning! Anyway I have just got off the ride and before I get punched by a plyst to get back on I would rather learn about the things I don't understand so hopefully I can resolve the matter without hair loss. So my main question so far is why are there 78 user names (most of which are computer related names, not all) are found in Directory Utility? I do not play games on my Mac it is mainly used for media such as iPhoto, iTunes, pages, mail and surfing the net. So which out these 78 users do I select as a server?
If you have any suggestions or pointers then please post a reply.
Thanks for reading
Orion

So which out these 78 users do I select as a server?
None. It's normal. Make no modifications.
It's not clear what trouble you are experiencing, or if anything is wrong at all. If your Mac is not behaving as you expect it should, describe what's wrong in as much detail as possible.
Include all relevant details regarding your MacBook Pro starting with which one of its three dozen models you have. Posting the results of EtreCheck will help with that. Read about it here.

Is there a user guide for Robohelp 7?

I've used Robohelp before, but now am faced with having to create a stylesheet. I've tried using the Help but it seems to make assumptions that I've done created .css before. For example, the kinds of things that I can find no information on:
What is the Design Editor? I can't seem to find it to be able to create an external style sheet.
In the "Create a style sheet" topic, you must first click style sheet, but the style sheet button isn't enabled.
Bottom line: I'm looking for all inclusive documentation that will give me concepts and procedures for creating a style sheet.
Thanks for your assistance.

Thank you so much for sharing these resources with me. I have viewed
Adobe's tutorials on a number of topics and where their documentation
falls short of the mark, the tutorials are excellent. I can't wait to dig
into them.

Is there a user guide for Robohelp 7?
Hi..
I COMPLETELY understand your frustration, because i've just gone through
the same ordeal.
Its impossible to figure out how to import frame files into RH and how to
use style sheets from the on-line help, because as you said, you only get
bits and pieces of information out of context, and many of the
descriptions of settings don't explain what they are for/do. Its the same
old paradox; the only way you can understand the on-line help is if you
already understand the product; in which case you wouldn't need the online
help.
What finally helped me to get a basic grasp of the mysteries of style
sheets, etc. was the tutorial: "Adobe Technical Communication Suite
Getting Started series - Part 3: FrameMaker 8 and RoboHelp7: …" @
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/robohelp. (it runs about an hour and a half).
It explains how to enter and apply custom style sheet settings, mapping,
etc. and should probably clear up your confusion.
The only thing I STILL not certain about though, is what relationship, if
any, template (.htt) files have to do with anything, and whether they
relate to .css files. So i'd appreciate it if another poster can shed some
enlightenment on that.

Are there any firmaware updates for time capsule?

Are there any firmware updates for Time Capsule/Time machine?
I just had a new hybrid (SSD and spinning disk) drive (750 GB) installed on my MacBook Pro and used Boot Kamp to partition it and run Windows xp. Now, my previously working Time Machine won't function. It says the "sparsebundle" is open (or in use) preventing the back-up from working properly. When I try and remove and re-install Time Capsule as the disk to back-up to, it still doesn't work. My plan "B" is get a second Time Capsule and dedicate it to the MacBook. But, I fear I'll face the same problem.
When I open to reconfigure Time Machine, the Time Capsule disk is identified as the back-up, but it's also seen in the "available disks to use for back-up" along with with Boot Kamp disk which is part of the new SSD hybrid hard drive just installed. (Remember it's the partitioned part running Windows xp.)
I've unplugged/plugged-in the ethernet internet connection and the power cord many times to no avail. The message still says the sparsebundle is in the way.
Do you think deleting Boot Kamp disk from the list of available hard drives might solve the problem?
Bill in Tulsa

TM can only use AFP and only on disks formatted HFS+ (ie Mac Extended Journaled) so it should not bring up a boot camp partition as a possible destination at all .. but I have not done that seutp.
It says the "sparsebundle" is open (or in use)
That error is well known. It should simply required the TC to be restarted..
That sometimes gets things working where the simple restart won't.
I would recommend using short names, with no spaces and pure alphanumeric.
That is C9
http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html
If you have a more complicated setup.. I would recommend firstly doing a TM reset in the computer.
See A4 in the same reference.
Do a verify then of the sparsebundle on the TC.. A5 but you might need to inherit the old backup if you want to continue an old backup.. A new hard disk will make the TM consider the old backup no longer belongs to the computer.. there is a UUID connection to the actual hard disk used in the backup.
Again read the info in pondini. B5 and B6.
The sparsebundle in use is C12 but there are a number of sparsebundle issues in section C.. C17 is another common issue.
Some of what you have done is not adequate.. eg disconnecting ethernet is not enough.. you need to reboot the TC.

D.p.middleton the Adobe Application Manager has been available for quite some time. It not only allows Creative Cloud users to install their applications but also downloads and applies applicable updates. In addition it is also responsible for the licensing and managing your agreement to the terms and conditions of the EULA.
2. this could be due to you selecting a trial subscription to the Creative Cloud? If you go to one of the Adobe Creative products and select Help>Updates it will launch the update portion of the Adobe Application Manager which I believe is the portion you are looking for?
#3 I believe this was already mostly covered in the answer to #2.
#4 the Adobe Application Manager also receives periodic updates which affects both perpetual and Creative Cloud subscription users.
I hope this provides you many of the answers you are looking for? If not please feel free to respond back with any additional inquiries which you have. Also if you are experiencing any difficulties with the update process please post this as well. It may not be necessary to have a full understanding of the inner workings of the Adobe Application Manager to help you resolve your difficulties.

Hi there
You could either sign up for another individual subscription for the 2nd user, or consider a Teams account which is priced per user - Creative Cloud pricing and membership plans | Adobe Creative Cloud

Are there planned price increases for renewal of creative cloud subscription

My renewal for creative cloud is pending.Are there price increases planned for creative cloud single app renewal?

I should have wrote, "I am better off, purchasing the Creative Suite 6 Design & Web Premium at $1899.00 and upgrading every 2 years at a cost of $375."
So....
Let's do some basic arithmatic
CC Suite is $49.99 x 12 = $599.98 per year || $1199.76 / 2 years || $1799.74 / 3 years || $2399.72 / 4 years || $2999.70 / 5 years || $3599.68
When you compare to purchasing the Creative Suite 6 Design & Web Premium at $1899.00 and then upgrading every 2 years at a cost of $375, it only takes 4.5 years before the CC subscription begins to surpass the 'owning' the product license model. Of course, the Adobe finance people know this very well and that is why the subscription model is absolutely adored!
My graph clearly illustrates this... hopefully I don't annoy the Adobe people with this... not my intention.
I am rounding values and not taking into account regional price differences nor am I accounting for price increases.
I should add that at a subscription rate of $29.99 per month, Adobe still stands to make significantly more money, over the long term... but the mid-point is just over 9 years, rather than 4.5 years and that is a more palatable proposition... I am guessing... for most of us.
Adobe, don't be greedy!
