Can someone recommend a good app for learning to type on a MBP?

I have used Mavis Beacon previously on a PC and found it to be OK. Searching the web I haven't come across any conclusive reviews. Does anyone have hands on experience? I need to increase my typing speed and accuracy and spending so much time on a computer you realise how inefficent two+ finger typing is.

When you need software there are two places to go:
The Mac App Store which provides some user feedback, and
Macupdate which provides lots of feedback and also links to alternate similar software with ratings.

btw Mavis Beacon was originally a Mac application and is still for the Mac.

  • Can anyone recommend a good app for designing and printing labels?

    I have just switched from pc to mac and have pages on my macbook but it does not have a label function (please apple sort this out its the only major flaw!) so can anyone recommend a good app that will do what a pc does? I do not really want to pay £85+ for office for mac just for the word program

    One way to find an app at the App Store is to use keywords.
    Type   print labels   in the search field top right corner of the App Store window then press Enter or Return on your keyboard.
    Click one of the apps listed. Always check Requirements under Information and definitely read customer reviews before purchasing and make sure there is a support link available in case you need to contact the app developer for questions.
    This forum is mainly for troubleshooting the App Store.
    For feedback for software designed for printing labels, try posting your topic in the Mac OS X community here.

  • Can you recommend a good source for learning about the Environment

    Rather than post a bunch of obviously uninformed thread topics, I would really appreciate some recommendation of some books, DVDs, online vids, etc.
    I've figured out and executed some of the basics such as playing the arpeggiator and the midi delay, and recording the output of the arpeggiator/delay to a track, but, obviously, there's a whole lot more (understatement of the year so far?)
    The environment seems to be a snakepit of danger - don't want to screw up any projects.
    Any recs would be greatly appreciated.

  • Can someone recommend an efficient workflow for creating and maintaining web ads in multiple sizes?

    I work for an online news site that runs ads from multiple clients. These ads (animated gifs) are sometimes run across multiple sizes (728x90, 510x60, 300x250, etc), and are often changed week to week.
    Currently, I have a separate photoshop file for each ad & when a client requests a change, I have no choice but to go through and edit each individual ad size, then re-export themas animated gifs. Some clients require 4-5 different ad sizes, per ad, and if they change their mind on something, I have to go back and edit 4-5 ads. Each set of ads is saved in a dated folder that rests within the client's folder. We are extremely busy at work & the ads are piling up. Just wondering if someone had a good suggestion for an easier way to create & maintain these ads. I haven't used the asset generator...I'm wondering if that is a solution?
    Also...bonus question ...with auto-select checked, is there a way to select items that are in a grouped folder without selecting the entire group? I currently have to uncheck "auto-select", select the layer in the layers panel and then am able to move the object.
    Thanks in advance!

    With the auto select, there is either a check box or a drop down selection to have it select layer or group.
    Smart objects don't work for creating different size gifs?

  • I want to I create PDFs on my new Macbook Pro, can someone recommend a good software program via apple store?

    I want to create PDFs on my new Mac Pro, can someone recommed a download from Apple IStore?

    The Mac OS has built-in PDF generation. Anthing you can print, you can create a PDF.
    In some apps like Preview, you can do "Save as..." to create the PDF:
    In other apps you have PDF options at the bottom left of the "Print..." dialog box:
    Basically you have no need to spend money to create simple PDFs.

  • Can anyone recommend some good headphones for iPhone?

    I know because of the recessed headphone jack not all headphones will work. Just for music playing, what's a good pair for around $100-$150? Thanks for any help!

    I recently bought a pair of Sleek Audio SA1 headphones for $80 and like them extremely well. They sound far better (to me anyway) than my much more expensive Shure buds. Sleek has other models and they also have a wireless option that I haven't gotten yet, but intend to.

  • Good Gawd Can Someone Write A Mixer App For the Audigy2

    What good is a soundcard without a decent **easily accessible** mixer app supporting ALL the inputs and outputs ...
    And for cripes sakes when are you idiots going to learn **BASIC** audio procedures and NOT start the soundcard at full volume after an install? Do you turn your stereo at home up full blast and then turn on the power? Of course not .... There's nothing like "the Windows Sound" coming out full bore from my 400 Watt Klipsch setup at 2 in the morning ....

  • Can someone recommend a good wireless usb adapter for an iMac?

    I would rather use a wireless usb adapter instead of having to purchase an airport card. Thanks a lot in advance for your assistance,

    This is the discussion area for Intel-based iMacs. Since you have an iMac G5 you probably want to make any future posts in the iMac G5 discussion area.
    Its probably cheaper to get an AirPort Extreme card but you might want to take a look at www.macwireless.com

  • Can Anyone Recommend Any Good Tutorials For A Beginner?

    Hi,
    I just purchased Pro Logic 9 and was wondering if anyone knows of any good lessons/tutorials to help a first time user of the Pro Logic series. Im excited to get into this program and record but it is so powerful that it is a bit overwhelming. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!

    I agree with JG99.
    +1 macprovideo
    I've seen both the lynda and macprovideo logic training. Don't get me wrong the Logic training at lynda is ok for the basics. The macprovideo ones are excellent and go much further. So I could learn in depth how all the instruments, like the EXS24 sampler, Ultrabeat drum machine, synths and plugins work and how to use them. There are proper whole tutorials dedicated to mixing and mastering. For me and my studio buddies macprovideo for final cut, logic and now the photoshop titles has saved us countless hours and a lot of hair!
