Just a small question here...

When I start up and hold the alt key to select the OS, why does "Mac OS X" have font smoothing, but "Windows" doesn't. It looks kinda untidy. Anyway I can change this???
P.S. I didn't really know what forum to post this is.

  • Just a small question

    Hi everybody! Recently, I found my old Adobe Premiere Elements 8.0 and decided to install that on my windows 7 laptop. Everything's working fine, but I have a question. I make a lot of little videos and the only way I can get them to my friends and family to show them is by e-mail, which requires the video size to be less than 25 megabytes. I've gone through almost all of the export options in adobe and they've always come out to 100 megs or 200 megs no matter what option I do. For the record, the same videos are only about 40 megs in Movie Maker and I can just lower the quality and drop it down to where I can e-mail them. Unfortunately, Adobe is all I have right now, so my question is this: How low can I drop the quality and what is the lowest, still watchable, file-size export option? Thanks in advance!

  • Just a technical question

    Hi,
    I'm not a developer but I wanted to ask here since I presume there're a lot more tech savvy people that could possibly give me a proper answer to just one small question regarding behavior of Mac OS X using the following example: at some moment I suddenly discovered that the Trackpad option which allows for search through the English Dictionary (Thesaurus, etc) tapping a highlighted word with three fingers no longer worked as before: when I tapped nothing happened or other word was "processed" in what seemed to me to be a chaotic order. I reset PRAM and its normal functioning returned. What exactly happened with the system that it started act incorrectly until the PRAM reset? I remember though that some days ago (before I discovered the issue) I did one more SMC and PRAM reset and performing the latter I released the combination of keys after the third chime. I then thought that it was too much so I repeated the operation exactly as recommended. Could the repetitive reset of PRAM be the reason and kind of shock to the OS?
    Would be happy to hear your opinions
    Have a nice day   

    Are you sure you haven;t turn it off in System Preferences->TrackPad;Point & Click?
    There it is called Lookup

  • Safari question here... Can I purchase a browser update for my mac book? I have OSX 10.6.8 and the "update softdate" function won't let me get past Safari 5.1.10. Please tell me I don't need a new computer just yet... Thx!!

    You need to upgrade OS X.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    You can upgrade to Yosemite from Lion or directly from Snow Leopard. Yosemite can be downloaded from the Mac App Store for FREE.
    Upgrading to Yosemite
    To upgrade to Yosemite you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Download Yosemite from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Yosemite is free. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
        OS X Mavericks/Yosemite- System Requirements
          Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Yosemite
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later
             3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 2,1 or later
             5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
             7. Xserve (Early 2009) - Model Identifier 3,1 or later
    To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
         Are my applications compatible?
             See App Compatibility Table - RoaringApps.
    Upgrading to Lion
    If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
    You can purchase Lion at the Online Apple Store. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax.  It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
         Lion System Requirements
           1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
               or Xeon processor
           2. 2GB of memory
           3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
           4. 7GB of available space
           5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

    if anyone can comment or provide answers i would be most greatful
    thanks guys

    NetStream.send() should usually be faster than NetGroup.post(), especially when using 1:1 NetStreams (vs Group NetStreams).
    when groups are large, there's no passive way to tell when members join or leave.  however, for small groups (less than about 15 members), they will be "fully meshed", meaning every member has a direct connection to every other member.  when that's the case, you can see the NetGroup.Neighbor.Connect/Disconnect events on a NetGroup.  to receive those, you must create a NetGroup with the same groupspec as your NetStream and listen for NetStatusEvent.NET_STATUS events.
    your function "msg" must be a method on the subscribing NetStream's "client" object to receive NetStream.send()s from the publisher.
    this is all generic ActionScript stuff.  i don't know how to use Flash CS5 but this stuff should all be the same in Flash and Flash Builder.

  • Hi guys. Just a quick question. My wife has a Mac Book Pro and when she is browsing the web she can use a two fingered gesture to go back to her previous page (by swiping from right to left). Is there any way to set that up on my iPad Mini. Many thanks.

    Not in the Safari browser she can't. That is not supported on the iPad. There are other mobile browsers that do have that functionality - one is iCab Mobile.

  • Lost my contacts in ios8 update and now I can't post my question here

    I posted my question here and it got deleted and they told me to go post it on the Developer forum cause it contains info about the new version of OSX coming out next month, but I'm not a developer and the developer forum sends me here if it's a question about using a product. And I have a question about using my iPhone 5s. Please don't delete this question again.
    I updated my iphone 5s (64 gig) and ipad 2 (16 gig) to ios 8 last week and I stupidly said yes to iCloud Drive before I read all the warning signs not to. My photos are still there cause I didn't have them in icloud, but my contacts are gone on my phone. I updated my Mac Mini to (the new version of OSX after Mavericks and I'm hoping if I don't say the name of it this post won't get deleted) and I still see all my contacts on my computer, I'm just not sure how to get them back on my phone. Should I restore my phone in itunes to a previous backup from last month? Figured I'd check here before I went with that.
    Please don't delete this post cause I can't post it in the developer forum. This is a question for the support forum. I am an end user.

    An error message came up on the computer and said it couldn't complete the installation.
    When I plug the ipod into the computer nothing happens.  It sill shows the apple icon on the touch and a bar.  It doesn't show in itunes at all.

    What's wrong with asking unix questions. Anyways,if

  • I need help in two small questions

    Hi,
    I'm new to Java and this is my first contribution.
    I have some small questions and hope that I get their answers
    *1. How can I read the input from the keyboard directly, without waiting to press Enter-key? (In DOS-console and not in graphic interface application)?*
    *2. How can I write a Java code to print in a printer?*
    With my best regards in advance

    Hello and welcome to this forum. One request, could you please turn down the volume? All-bold is a bit much. Why not reserve it for when you really need it?
    1. How can I read the input from the keyboard directly, without waiting to press Enter-key? (In DOS-console and not in graphic interface application)?Not without great difficulty. There are non-standard libraries out in the great aether that will allow this, but I believe that most of us mere mortals will use a GUI such as Swing when we want this type of functionality.
    2. How can I write a Java code to print in a printer?Have you looked on Google or the Sun tutorials? It would be best if you start there and then come back here if you have any specific questions about something that's not working.
    Good luck.

  • Nokia E71 small Questions

    I've been using my E71 for 6 months but it has left me with a few small questions.
    1.) The 2.5 audio port produces awful hissing when paired up with a pair of Sennheiser in-ear headphones (the noise can be heard on the bundled nokia headphones, just not as loud). This hiss can also be heard when navigating the menu system via the menu sounds. Is this typical or does the 2.5mm output supposed to produce clear sound?
    2.) The front audio speaker tends to develop a echo/hollow sound when talking to people or listening to music. I must tap the front speaker to rid the issue. This is something that seems to come and go.
    3. ) I'll be taking my phone to Poland and wanted to know if there's a way to change the SMS language/dictionary from English to Polish. I'd like my words to be corrected and autotyped in Polish.
    If that is possible, is there then a hotkey for such an action to be able to swap between languages?
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    we dont live jere 24/7
    its a user to user forum
    you need a compatible 2.5m adaptor and they are hard to find and match up with good headphones
    this speaker does tend to be hollow at times this is not a music device so quality is not as same as a music dedicated model
    in phone got to personalisation/language there you will see phone language and writing language see what options you have from there

    Hello and welcome to the communities.
    Note: Discussion successfully moved from vSphere 5.1 to Virtual Lounge
    The VMware communities are made up of volunteers, including some VMware employees. The time it takes to get a response can vary, depending on the nature of the question. It is important to remember that these communities are not the official support channel for VMware products. The people that contribute here volunteer their time and expertise, and because of this there are no guarantees. Many questions get answered immediately, so using the communities as a starting place is often a good approach.
