How to use the transparent feature in Paint?

How do I use the Transparent? I thought it was to make a background disappear, like a dark background you don't want.
How does one "select" the background and make it transparent?
Win 8 and Paint.
Thanks.

Hi SHarenep,
When selecting parts of an image, you can decide if you want the background color to be included in the selection or not. Simply check or uncheck the
"Transparent selection" option. If you want the background included, uncheck the option and vice-versa.
Best regards

How to use the "identify" feature in new 6.3.1 airport utility?

how to use the "identify" feature in new 6.3.1 airport utility?
so you can find the basestations in larger networks?

There is a workaround, which is to use Airport Utility 5.6.
I can confirm that 5.6 will run on 10.8.4 Mountain Lion, it will recognize the new 2013 Airport Extreme Base Station (A1521) running firmware 7.7.1, and it will give you access to view the device's Log & Statistics, DHCP Clients, and Profiles.
Four caveats:
1) The easiest way to install it is to download the app itself, not an installer or through the App Store. There is a page here where you can download the app: http://coreyjmahler.com/2013/03/08/airport-utility-5-6-on-os-x-v10-8-mountain-li on/ This way, you still have both versions, Airport Utility 6.x.x and 5.6.
2) When you launch 5.6, you'll get a message saying a newer version is available and asking if you want to update. Click Cancel to proceed into the utility.
3) When you click the Manual Setup button in 5.6, you'll get a warning dialog that "This version of AirPort Utility doesn't support this AirPort wireless device and might improperly configure the device if you continue to use it. Check www.apple.com/support/airport for the latest version of AirPort Utility." You can click Continue to get into the utility without issue.
4) You should probably only use 5.6 to view the additional status details. I have not tried to modify and save any AEBS settings using 5.6. There are other discussions here in the forums indicating that attempting to save settings via 5.6 that are no longer available in 6.3.1 will not actually save the settings to the AEBS even if both utilities indicate that the settings are changed. See https://discussions.apple.com/message/22677993#22677993
So, even though you can't use it to modify settings no longer available in Airport Utility 6.3.1, using Airport Utility 5.6 to view DHCP clients, Logs and Statistics is very useful for troubleshooting network issues.
PS - There are two ways to get to the DHCP Clients list, neither of which is obvious The first is to go to the Airport pane -> Summary tab and click on the "Wireless Clients:" label in the Summary display. All of the labels from "Wireless Mode:" down on the Summary display operate as links to view/edit the corresponding info/settings, which is also not obvious at first glance. Also not obvious, clicking on "Wireless Clients:" actually brings up a new pane with three tabs: Logs, Wireless Clients, and DHCP Clients. You can also get to the same pane by going to the Advanced pane and clicking on the Logs and Statistics button.
I hope this is helpful information. Took me a while to find out how to do this.

How to use the keystroke feature of applescript?

I am trying to use the keystroke feature of Applescript.
On page 200 of "Mac OSX Panther edition The Missing Manual" shows the following example (to select all of a document):
keystroke "a" using (command down)
I tried to use this with keystroke "o" and got the message that "using" can't be used this way. Where can I find a few examples of how to use this feature in Applescript? I particularly want to use keystrokes to copy rulers in Appleworks. The keystrokes to do this are "shift-command-v".
Thanks for comments.

While I agree with Hiroto as to how to implement 'AppleWorks 6's 'Format, Rules, Copy Ruler' ('Command <shift> C) sub-menu item selection, below is an example of performing the same action using 'keystroke'.
tell application "AppleWorks 6" to activate
tell application "System Events" to keystroke "c" using command down & shift down

HT1893 I just bought a MAC and can't figure out how to use the scan feature on my RX580 HP printer. Can anyone tell me where to find this? This used to be an option that was obvious under programs with my Dell. Please someone help!

I need some help! I was able to download my HP printer software on to my Macbook Pro, but cannot find the Scan feature on the computer to be able to scan a document. If someone could LMK what I need to do, or where I need to look to find this I would appreciate it!

That would be a function of the driver that came with the printer. Make sure you have the latest driver appropriate to your system, either from HP or:

Does Acrobat 9 have the OCR feature? If so, where do I find it? In Acrobat 8, one would go to Document, OCR Text Recognition, Recognize Test Using OCR, OK. I specifically want to know how to apply OCR to a scanned document in order to use the Find feature.

Simple. go to DOCUMENT, and then select OCR TEXT RECOGNITION.

Can someone tell me please how to use the features...

Hi all,
Can someone tell me please how to use the features on the HS-47 headset?
That is, what functions does the button control and how many presses of the button for each function, etc?
The headset was as supplied with my 6200.
I've tried looking for a user guide but I don't think there is one.
Many thanks,
Steve.

I think it's pretty basic.
If you are listening to music on your phone, it should automatically mute it when a call comes in. A basic press of the call answer / end button should then do just that.
Have a go! You could try experimenting with a quick double press, that may recall the last number you dialled, but otherwise that's probably it.

Unless you installed the ARD administration application on the computers yourselves, all they'll have is the client. The ARD admin app is not included with Macs; it must be purchased from the Mac App Store. If you did for some reason install the ARD admin app, just remove it.

I was opening Thunderbird using the RUN feature on my computer, but I did a history cleanup and deleted how to get to my emails. What was command in RUN?

Using the Run feature to open Thunderbird - my husband and I have separate email accounts here...... but after doing a spyware/malware clean up - the Run command that was saved is gone and I don't know what it was to go find our emails........

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe" -ProfileManager
or
"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Thunderbird\thunderbird.exe" -ProfileManager
Instead of using run all the time, do the following.
After you work out which run actually works.
Right click your desktop and select new and then shortcut.
In the location of the item, paste the run command that works. (Ctrl_V will paste. Selecting text and pressing Ctrl+C will copy. So even though there is no paste button or menu you can still paste.
Click next, Check the title information and Finish.
Now there will be an icon on the desktop to open Thunderbird and you can pick the profile from the list.
