You can resize the keyboard window, positioning the mouse pointer at the edge of the window, clicking and dragging to the desired size.

How to view Date and Time in messages app?

How do I display the date & time of every individual message, in "Messages" app [Version 8.0 (4226)] for OS X (10.9.4)
It seems to sort messages sent within a few minutes of each other as conversations, and only inserts a timestamp every 5 or 6 messages....I need to see the date & time of each one.
I know you can do this on the iPhone by pulling the screen to the left, so the data is there..., but I cannot figure out how to view it on my iMac.
Thanks!

Hi,
Mouse over the text or Pic that was sent.

When I open a pdf, it used to open in Preview. Now my iMac requires Adobe Reader, but I prefer Preview. How can I make my iMac open pdf in Preview again?

If an image opens in a different application but you want it to always open in Preview when you double-click it, do this one time: Control-click the file, let go of the Control key, press the Option key, then choose Always Open With > Preview. Or, select the image file, choose Get Info from the File menu, then change the "Opens with:" pop-up menu choice to Preview.

How do I get the iMac to display thumbnails and not an icon of jpeg photos?

Hi folks,
I just purchased my first Mac, an Imac. I was browsing through a folder, using Finder, containing photos files from my latest trip.
Under Windows, I used to tell Windows Explorer to show thumbnails of the photos.
How do I get the iMac and Finder to show the thumbnails? It only wants to show a silly jpg icon which doesn't tell me much about what the photo looks like.
Thanks.

That was quick!
I have a folder of JPEG photos on my HD. This folder was created over a year ago when I was using Panther.
When I open it and select "Show View Options" I get a different window with options like "Date Created" and "Date Modified" etc.
There is no preview option or a slider to alter the icon sizes - merely a choice of large or small icons.
Ian.

I have an IMac and opened an email that may have been infected with a virus. How do I check my IMac for a possible virus?

You would be better posting this in the Lion forum.
https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.7_lion?view=discussi ons
It's possible you email contained a virus, but unlikely. There haven't been any reports of email viruses effecting the mac.
My understanding is the Apple provides security updates for all malware including viruses.
There have been reports of a --
-- Phoney virus checking program
-- flash malware.
ppc -- Power PC. An older computer processor used by Apple. Last Mac shipped with PPC was in 2006.
I've read about two virus checking programs for the mac. One is clamav. The rest are either junk or malware.

How can I get my iMac screen to divide into sections? I'm using OS X 9.2. Thanks.

How can I get my iMac screen to divide into sections? I'm using Maverick OS X 9.2. Thanks.

You cannot split a monitor up into sections in Mac OS X.
You can have separate monitor spaces or desktops that you can access using the Spaces or Mission Control functionality in OS X Mavericks.
You cannot split monitor views into seperate sections
There is no such way to do this in Mac OS X.
Do a search for an app called Cinch OR another app called A Better Snap Tool. Both of these apps are in the Mac App Store.
These may work for you.

How do i connect my iMac to my tv to see movies with wire

how do i connect my iMac to my tv to see movies with wire

Hey rodskc10,
Thanks for the question! Based on the iMac model and TV you have, you’ll need to pick up a compatible cable. There are a few options that can be found on the Apple Online Store:
Mac Cables - Computer Audio & Video Adapters, Network Cables & More - Apple Store (U.S.)
http://store.apple.com/us/mac/mac-accessories/cables#!
For example, if you have the latest iMac and an HDTV, a mini DisplayPort to HDMI cable should do the job (you’ll connect this to the Thunderbolt port, which is backwards compatible with mini DisplayPort).
For additional information, see this article:

How can I connect my iMac to a TV for playback of videos? My TV does not have HDMI.

How can I connect my iMac to a TV for playback of videos? My TV does not have HDMI.

You need to find out what video out you have on your iMac, and what kind of video inputs there are on your TV.
It will help to know exactly what model iMac and exactly what make/model TV you have.
Depending on the exact model iMac you have, it may have miniVGA, miniDVI, miniDisplayPort or Thunderbolt output. Your TV may have composite, S-video, component, DVI, VGA or HDMI inputs. Once you confirm what kind of ports your iMac and TV have, then we can probably suggest the correct cable or adapter so you can connect them to each other.
