Learning the gestures

I will soon buy a new desktop imac, and I want to learn the gestures. Have always used a mouse so far.   I am not finding any instructions.  Can anyone suggest what to search for?
This must be written down somewhere>
Thank you

The best way is to visit System Preferences, then click on Trackpad. You will see videos of each of the Gestures.

  • How can I make text substitutions learn the correct capitalization of an acronym?

    I love the text substitutions function in the Mac OS, and the auto grammar and spelling corrections are usually really useful, but there is one particular instance that is driving me insane. In my job, I end up using the acronym "TAs" (for "teaching assistants") all the time. Mac constantly autocorrects this to "Tas." I have tried adding "tas" to text substitutions in the settings and telling it to substitute "TAs," but it just autocorrects my substitution to "Tas." I have tried telling the OS to learn the spelling "TAs," but that hasn't worked either. I don't want to turn off capitalization correction altogether because I usually find it useful. Is there a way to fix this one word? The only workaround I have found is that it doesn't correct me when I pluralize with an apostrophe (as in "TA's"), but I am really not a fan of that.
    I am running Mavericks 10.9.5, if that helps.

    Hi Laura_mac !
    Does it depend on the application?
    Using Yosemite I added
    tas to Keyboard ====> Text
    so that TAs becomes TAs
    It worked via Safari 8.03
    via Pages and Numbers (3.5.2)
    It did not work in BBEdit
    nor Firefox
    nor Word
    If you do a lot of text substitution I found the following app quite helpful.  You can customize to a great degree.

    The system doesn’t recognize or capitalize the word (I) or the first word of every sentence. Another really annoying thing about the integrated mail on your Mac computers is the fact that the system learns the word as you type it more and more instead of highlighting it as incorrectly is this is a word that’s being misspelled. Can Apple fix this bug to make it user friendly as if you were using Office or a Word Document?

    You hit the target CT.
    It’s only fair that if Apple is going to integrate Mail into Mac PCs, it would be nice if the system does it for you like Office or perhaps Outlook. I just don’t to use Outlook although I have it installed and ready to use, but instead use Mail which comes with Mac OS already.
    I hope to make some sense here.

        ACC_ID
           110
           130It just returns all acc_id rows in Loans table which has corresponding ACC_IDs present in defaulters.
    On 10gR2 SQL Reference, for EXISTS operator, it says ' An EXISTS condition tests for existence of rows in a subquery' .
    Would it be wrong if i say, EXISTS operator can be used when you want to return all rows in the Outerquery which has matching records in the Innerquery.

    Would it be wrong if i say, EXISTS operator
    can be used when you want to return all rows in the
    Outerquery which has matching records in the
    Innerquery.Depends on what you understand with "matching".
    See following examples:
    In this case matching means "<>" i.e. return all loans who have at least one row that differs in defaulters table (of course it returns all loans, because defaulters has 2 rows with different acc_id, BTW look also for NULLs and comparisons involving NULLs)
    SQL> ed
    Wrote file afiedt.buf
      1  select acc_id from loans
      2  where exists(
      3    select 1 from defaulters
      4*   where loans.acc_id<>defaulters.acc_id)
    SQL> /
        ACC_ID
           100
           110
           120
           130See also following query:
    SQL> ed
    Wrote file afiedt.buf
      1  select acc_id from loans
      2  where exists(
      3    select 1 from defaulters
      4* )
    SQL> /
        ACC_ID
           100
           110
           120
           130There isn't any condition at all, so any row in defaulters is "matching" row in this case.
    So I'd stick with explanation in documentation this time ;)

  • Good way to start with the learning the 11g concepts

    Hi,
    I have a work experience on the BEA weblogic server 8.1 sp4 on which i have worked for about 2 year now. My current assignment requires working with the Installation/ Development and deployment in the Fusion middleware 11g server. Could some body please suggest me a good way to start with the learning the 11g concepts.
    I understand that all the documentations are available in the Oracle forum, but i want to understand where to start from.
    my core tasks in the assignment would be
    1. installation (OSB on top of WLS).
    2. development/configuration on OSB.
    3. Deployment and administrative tasks.
    regards,
    Prakhar

    Hi thanks for the update. I have been going through the links and found them very useful.
    I have few new doubts.
    In all the tutorials for getting started with the Fusion middleware, the examples which are given use the Oracle JDeveloper extensively. This IDE is used for implementing the BEPL and other important aspects. I found this very similar to the Workshop IDE initially bundled with the BEA-Weblogic 8.1. Is JDeveloper enhanced to accomodate the features of the Weblogic Workshop IDE?
    Also, i need some information regarding the Eclipse IDE which is bundled with the OSB installation. Are there any tutorials available which show how to use the Eclipse IDE with OSB.
    Also, can the Eclipse IDE be used to implement the same set of components which are being developed using the JDeveloper in the tutorials.
    My concern here is i want to know the best way to start with the training/development. I am already familiar with the Eclipse IDE and donot want to switch to the JDeveloped unless it is absolutely necessary. Can one of these IDE be used repeacebly in place of other.
    Please inform me if in case my wuestion is not clear.
    Regards,
    Prakhar

  • Adobe CS5.5 Design Premium - What is the most logical order to learn the programs in this suite?

    Okay, so I want to become a real Adobe fan.  I have CS5.5 Design Premium, I am running Windows 8, I have both a digital camera and video recorder and I have a Bamboo drawing tablet. 
    What would be the most logical order to learn the programs in the Adobe CS5.5 Design Premium? 
    Could you provide recommendations for using the online video trainings?

    The most logical order is dictated by your own needs. Sorry to be so blunt, but trying to determine the order of which tools and workflows based on "I'm hip when I know Photoshop." or similar is bound to take you nowhere. Any of the individual programs has more features than even pros who use them every day will ever use. Everyone only uses the part relevant to get the work done. That being so, you could be watching tutorials for the next 5 years every day and still not have learned anything relevant. With that in mind there's realyl only two reasonable ways to learn:
    a) Attend a structured course.
    b) Come up with an idea for a specific project of your own.
    A good place to start would be e.g. creating a photographic essay/ story - shoot some photos, edit them in PS, create a layout in ID, some logo in AI. Then you can look up specific tutorials for techniques as you go along.

  • How can learn the very basics of Pixelmator?

    How can I learn the very basics of using Pixelmator?   I have no graphic arts experience beyond WOrd Art which I've used to design t-shirt graphics.    Although I had been encouraged to by Photo Shop, I wanted a smaller $ step into graphics art and was introduced to Pixelmator.
    But I don't even know enough about how to start creating my ideas....e.g. how to even create artful text......    Pixelmator has a good learning site, but all of their tutorials seem to assume a basic knowledge of this kind of software.
    My sister suggested I try to hook-up with a tutor through an Apple Forum....
    Suggestions please?!

    The folks at PixelmatorTutorials.net have in my opinion the best tutorials to date for those who want to learn image editing. They have a series of tutorials called back to basics and these go into the details of image editing. Explaining everything from what a pixel is, to how it gets its color etc. They also explain the app itself in detail. I'd recommend following them. They usually pubilish 1 to 2 tutorials a week. They have some handy tips in every tutorial I watched so far. Like shorcuts that I never knew existed and are not even mentioned in the Pixelmator manual.
    The link: http://pixelmatortutorials.net
    Good luck.
