Looking for DreamWeaver newbe users...

I am going to do a online meeting with a few DreamWeaver guys to build a list of "tips" for DW guys who are moving to CFBuilder. If you have tips you would like to throw in please throw them in this thread.

Here are some topics of interst based on posts in this forum.
How to change views
Speeding up code hinting (or slow if you prefer)

Wine Project looking for Photoshop CS users who want Linux support

If you're not a Linux user, or if you don't like the idea of
running Photoshop for Windows on Linux, you can stop reading now,
this message probably won't be interesting to you.
The Wine project is looking for hardcore Photoshop CS or 7
users who use Photoshop professionally, all day, every day,
and who are willing to tell us why they can't do that in Linux
using Wine yet.
We know everybody would like Photoshop CS3 or at least
CS2 support, but support for CS2 and CS3 isn't quite
ready, so we'd like to focus on our strengths, and support
Photoshop 7 and CS excellently. Don't worry, we're also
working on the CS2 and CS3 issues. Getting all the 7 and CS
issues taken care of builds a stronger foundation for CS2 and CS3.
If something doesn't work in Photoshop 7 or CS itself,
or your favorite plugin works in Windows with 7 or CS
but not in Wine, please let us know how to reproduce
the problem. To do that, just reply to this post,
or post in the wine-users mailing list,
or leave a comment in the wine appdb for Photoshop 7 or CS,
or file a bug in the Wine Bugzilla,
whichever you're more comfortable with.
We'll take it from there; if we can reproduce it, we'll
file a bug and see if we can get a wine developer to fix it.
Ideally you'd test with the latest release of Wine
(currently 0.9.51), but if you're still on a slightly older
version, don't sweat it, we'll retest on the latest for you.
Thanks!

At the risk of repeating myself: I'm serious. I really want bug
reports from professional Photoshop users. Leave them here,
send them to the wine-users mailing list (see http://winehq.org),
or file one in our bug tracking system (http://bugs.winehq.org),
any of the three ways is fine.

Looking for LA area user group

Are there any user groups in the LA area, google was no help & what I did find were flakey groups that did not answer emails. I am looking for serious user groups in the LA area.
Thanks :)

well, i was disappointed in the first one, as I received no response. The second lists the same groups, but I may contact the Orange County group. Thanks

I am looking for a multi user, searchable journal / log

I am looking for an app that will let 4 people create their separate journals or log. The intent is to create better communication and shift hand off. I would like it to be searchable with key words, and also a todo list for each user. Any ideas or suggestions would be great.

wow there are lots of solutions without apps, but i believe if use an app instead of gmail accounts to share google docs, or outlook to share online documents and collaborate orojects, or to use microsoft exchange etc.one solution would be to allow up to five different emails to be used attached to your Apple ID, and to allow sharing all of the iWork suite files through the iCloud.
I store and access all of my Keynote, GarageBand, iMovie, and other files through the iCloud. All of my text Editorfiles are also stored in the iCloud under opened and saved from there. This allows me to access them from all devices. Other people in my family are in my web team, who are allowed access to my iCloud can also do this. A better way at least four images will be to use shared streams in the Photos app on iPad. However,
I think if you are looking for professional team solution for collaboration on multiple types of files, then I would recommend box.
you can create a private unshed folders and files with family and work team and separate them all. If you use dropbox, all box, or what time recommend for large storage for free is MEGA with a 50 GB free storage then all of these solutions have online players, viewers and in some cases even editors within the cloudbrowser interfaces they have designed for the apps.
By sharing these with your work team you would allow them to access and edit the files.if you are using Gmail and Google accounts, then of course your Gmail account will let you access Google docs and you have GDrive meaning, Google drive for storing files. This is deliberately meant for secure sharing with different work teams and online collaboration and administration of projects and files. So you don't really need an app
I think I would recommend BOX. I have just started using it and it seems very promising, and I am using the free version, which serves my purposes.
The service and it's interface, is quite extensive indeed. I'm so if you really are willing to pay for the pro are the super pro versions I think it is a very powerful tool if perhaps slightly expensive. It is fitted out with a heck of a lot of functionality.

I am a multitasker and use multiple apps in combination both fall the intended purposes which they were made for, and also for other purposes which I have invented myself, that the developers probably never thought of when they created those apps. Please let me know more details about how you wish to use and apply your methods with the app US seeking because I have spent many thousands of dollars on different paid apps to find the functionalities I need on my ios devices. I suffer from gout and arthritis, and my fingers are too sensitive to use a keyboard or mouse which makes my hands swell up and burn like heck. I have just found a way to both control my computer using the iPad as my mouse trackpad and keyboard, as well as using the iPad as a remote desktop which is also mouse and trackpad and keyboard built into one. This has relieved my hands from myinvalidity which as an author who spends up to 18 hours a day typing is a great relief. So that far some apps are not only usable for what the purposes they are stated.for example, I just use Keynote on the iPad to make a single slide with a master slide. But that master slide has become a motion graphics intro video for one of my YouTube channels as an MP4 video. This is not possible to convert from Keynote itself and I had to find an ulterior path to achieving my goal of obtaining a keynote presentation into an MP4 stream of both YouTube video.I have been working on various websites with collaborators who work for me who needs access to the files which I contribute for them to be able to finish that work with. I therefore understand a large number of your needs but perhaps not all of them, because each of us slightly different in our methods, goals and what our businesses are.
but believe me I can give you lots of information about how to apply different apps to achieve goals with and also how to simplify things into try and reducing things to one device and one or as little apps as possible in order to collaborate your projects and get the files accessed and worked on without having to go the long way home, meaning having to use 10 apps could do something that you can do with one browser and one application on the MacBook or a computer. With mobile devices at least with Apple, it is different. There are many websites like YouTube which you can't even comment in the comments box on if you use Safari in iPad. The keyboard is completely deactivated and you cannot edit any single comment there at all. So there are still problems with thisand of issue, meaning we still need to use Mac book and iMac to get our work done especially the big stuff like documentary movies and 4K super HD movies, which are the new thing.
I use an ecommerce solution (ecwid), which has a TinyMCE what you see is what you get text editor inserted into an I-frame within the admin CP Control Panel, and it is completely unnavigable and deactivates the keyboard when trying to edit products using an iPad or any iOS seven device.I have that for how to find a way of connecting to my computer at home using the remote desktop, in order to be able to work on my online store using the iPad. This is just one of many integration approaches which I am experimenting with and spending many thousands of dollars on paid apps in order to find various approaches what is right and what is wrong with the iOS system.
for example, you can airdrop the file from your ioS iPhone to your iOS iPad. But you can't do it to your MacBook which is OS X. This is a great disadvantage. However Sharon just James and saving document files from the iLife and iWork suites in the iCloud all you do is put the iPad on the table with Keynote open for example, walk to your MacBook open keynote on that, I have only just started but I have been inspired since I moved from Windows to Apple over a year ago, and have taught myself to minimize the amount of third-party apps and try to achieve my goals with the built in integrative bull software's which are already available on the OS X Mavericks system and the iOS seven systems.this has resulted in great curiosity in experimenting with and discovering all the functionalities and various ways to apply export import and integrate files with each other in one workflow that is accessible from all devices without any cable connections or file transfer processes to take up our time.
Apple has felt this out very well and has intended it to be used in this way and even for collaborating with teams. You just need to know how to setup your devices properly, and you can probably achieve all of the goals you wish and all of the top quality professional work you wish to with the built-in software on your Mac.
for example, most people don't know that the text edit is not just a text editor. It also has RTF document and Rich text editing and can insert images edited them all as Kendra Finder and QuickView functions which have photo editors much better than Microsoft paint, I'm can do anything that a simple Photoshop type application can do toedit images with at least for those who are not MEGA professionals and just need to do medium professional work. with iMovie aperture iPhoto GarageBand and it's possible plug-ins Logic eggs Pro, Pages, keynote and numbers you can achieve absolutely everything you wish to. I have a YouTube channel which I use as my hobby and to help users of Apple products to understand the full potential off the immensely amazing machines they have in their ownership
it is a new channel and I am just beginning but I am hoping to not do reviews of hardware rather to just show how an advanced end-user has manifested the flu I'm complete setup and integration of all of his hardware and software and his workflow with his Apple devices in the home and office.it seems you and myself, have opposing problems. I know how to achieve all of the girls you mention and Tmart from dozens of different approaches. Some of them free some of them paid. Some of the free ones are better than paint options and the other way round two. One has to look at one's needs and decide which one fits one's needs and if the price is worth it, and also if there is a free option that is viable.I would be happy to communicate with you further on this matter and please do a search on YouTube for how to mockable and I also own a.com domain using the same words,where I shall be posting alternative content about using Apple products in contrast to the many YouTube channels which only seem to do rhardware and app reviews, bemchmark tests, and on unboxings.
I find is boring because I think it's more interesting to just show the end results of what can be achieved using Apple and his built-in products. However, some of the best apps which I really useful I will be showing and presenting and also using thecontent I have made using Apple products to make my YouTube videos with to show how good you can really make things with without the use of third-party apps. If you think about it and it's what I always suspected, the beautiful Apple videos which a promotional on their adverts on the explanatory videos I located in a smooth modern and very intuitive and economic manner which looks very futuristic.
I have been making movies to try and create something that looks smooth and professional on YouTube, but I'm still pretty amateur with it.
I used it to make my intros and to edit all the movies with and at sound files imported from GarageBand which I played the music myself all made the effects myself to avoid claims and issues with YouTube however, I opemed Keynote after having never having used PowerPoint, or any other kind of slideshow maker of presentation software in my whole life].I used it, for the first time yesterday and sat until 6 o'clock in the morning making myself busy and my eyes Bokel training myself from beginner to advanced in one evening. The result was an intro video that is multimedia multi layered, with transparencies, intro amd outros for each inserted element be that a picture, video, textbooks, or what ever.).I found I had made a truly moving dynamic video, and motion graphics that is a single Master slide, which one would think of normally as a still image in a series of slideshows like in PowerPoint.
However, I found out that I can use it to make beautiful motion graphics and explanatory video intros, which are approaching, even in my first attempt, something similar to how Apple videos look.
I thus concluded, logically when you consider it, that Apple of course, makeall their company media and video content, using their own software.
I then realized, that it was not iMovie, and Final Cut Pro, that they used to get those smooth flat translucent and futuristic effects which are beautiful in that simplicity.it is not those solutions which were used for many of the effects and presentations which we see in the videos found on Apple's website
it is indeed I have found since yesterday the ApplePowerPoint alternative,that has produced the most beautiful translucent and somehow flat but in tentatively deep interface of that presentations. Namely, Apple's keynote presentation software on the iPad.I was amazed and uploaded it to my YouTube channel on how to mockable as a demonstration of what can be achieved with Keynote and also to use as an intro for some of my videos which I will be making. Please feel free to search for it and find it on YouTube. I don't wish to publicize myself here on the Apple forums, because that is not my purpose to post here. My purpose to post is my true love and amazement with.I think I've changed my mind about not posting a link to my content. The content helps Apple very much, and so I will leave it up to the Apple moderators of this forum, whether to remove the link or not. I really believe it advertises some of the power of Keynote and iPad and how it can be used to make incredible presentations even with one single slide.so here it is; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRbLzYISJnYmy intention is not to profit from the channel, rather than to support Apple and to show people how to use Apple products to the full extent because Apple developers, I working very hard to push the product to the limits. People should therefore use them and push those limits as they were intended to be pushed. It is incredible what you can really do and I wish people to become aware of this. My YouTube channel exists for that sole purpose. Viva Apple!

Learning path for Dreamweaver newbie?

Hi all,
I'm looking for a bit of advice one how to get started on a learning path for Dreamweaver CS5.5.
I want to be able to develop e-commerce sites and plan to use Business Cataylst to do the backend stuff.
I developed a few thing in Flash (CS3) a few years back and have a background in IT (although my programming experience is dated!) so I'm not a complete novice but know nothing of HTML/CSS.
I wonder if anyone could give me a steer on what I should concentrate on learning and if there are any particular books/resources I should consider?
Thanks in advance and regards.

Hello
I think you answered your own question. I came to DW as a coding novice and a DW novice and think that I got caught up with learning DW. That set me back almost a year, I reckon. The more you know about HTML and CSS and other web technologies, the better partner DW will be. If you are familiar with Photoshop as a digital editor then it would be like saying the more you know about photography, image processing and camera technique, the easier it will be to learn. Or maybe, with Illustrator, the more you know about printing and color, the easier that will be. Dreamweaver however, in my experience is the least intuitive software unless, you have a good grasp of HTML and CSS.
If you learn well with books, then David Powers' has written a good DW manual but there are plenty others. If you are OK with online learning then you're in luck, there are masses of resources out there. You could try http://www.w3schools.com/ The thing I like most about that resource is the try-it-yourself onine editor that lets you test the each that the lesson contains.
Once you get started on something and can focus in a bit more, you will be able to narrow down your searches but even then, I'm sure you will find plenty. After that, use this forum.

Looking for dreamweaver tutor near Buffalo Grove, IL

Can anyone here help me find a dreamweaver tutor near Buffalo Grove, IL? I volunteer for a children's hospital and want to move our existing website from iweb to dreamweaver. I've taken the intense 3-day DW course twice, but since I don't use it on a daily basis, it's hard to remember everything and apply what I've learned to a specific project. I love learning with Apple's One on One program and am hoping to find someone who can coach me through the process of creating a website in DW. Any thoughts?

Like SnakEyez02 I think you might benefit from at least taking a look at Wordpress. If you enjoy learning, why devote that to a product that you are not going to use regularly? Wordpress is a highly regarded platform that a wide range of people get a good end result with. People who have absolutely no knowledge of code through experts to who make a living out of it. If you want to press on with Dreamweaver then you need to brush up on your HTML CSS skills and unless you do, it will be a cruel mistress! Wordpress equally, will serve you better if you have a good understanding of the underlying technologies which on top of HTML and CSS, includes PHP.
With Wordpress, you can build a site, enable others to contribute content, and easily add the ability for users to interact. You can add heaps of functionality through plugins and you can start small and build it up. A couple of books might interest you: Biginning Wordpress 3.0 and Smashing Wordpress: Beyond the Blog.
Wordpress has a hugh following and community with masses of tutorials, sites and freebies that will help you on your way.

Looking for MAC/Aperture user in the Morgnatown WV area

Greetings,
I am trying to find some help with a book project.
I have two strikes against me.
1. I have no MAC
2. I have no Aperture
I am trying to find a MAC users group or helpful person in the Morgantown WV area who would willing to lend me a hand a book project.
The project is turning this website: http://EpicRoadTrips.us/ca2007 into a book for my mother for Christmas.
There are nearly 800 images and nearly as much text.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
-Mike

Kirk, thanks very much for taking the time to write me.
Thus far, this has been a frustrating disappointment and probably is not a feasible project.
Just what kind of "book" do you have in mind?
Basically a book version of the web site: a travelogue.
Format and size is yet to be determined but I am leaning towards landscape 11x8 or larger. I have been looking into VioVio (http://www.viovio.com) as a possible printing service.
The good news? I "borrowed" some of your online image files
What was the URL for the images you used?
I shoot with the web in mind so I must resize my images.
Usually I have a small image in with the text which is linked to a higher resolution image if anyone wants to see it.
Such as:
"Thumb"
http://epicroadtrips.us/2007/summer/california/D1/web/ert07CAD121.jpg
"HiRes"
http://epicroadtrips.us/2007/summer/california/D1/web/hres/ert07CAD121.jpg
and most appear to be 180 DPI.
How did you determine this?
I still do not understand how.
DPI is a printing term (dots per inch) and the more an image file has, the better (and larger), the image prints will display. 300 DPI would be much better and maybe you have them stored on your PC or camera memory card.
I know that 300dpi is considered a minimum for quality printing, but I have never been sure how to determine this. Usually, I just use the original image from my cameras when getting prints made.
For web use, I resize them to a width of 400-600px.
If only 180 files were shot you'll be limited in the display dimensions in your "book". More like 4X5 inch sizes (maybe even smaller) on glossy paper. But you could arrange the images "4 up" to print a larger "coffee table" size book if you wanted.
I went to the MAC lab here at WVU yesterday and test drove Aperture.
I was able to make three or so pages without much problem.
But, I could not find a way to resize the image containers as they are set up in the templates.
I could resize image containers which I added to the page template, but then I could not apply the template style to these containers. The were unstyled boxes, not like the ones in template.
See: http://epicroadtrips.com/matt/book-style/ss.jpg for the book style I was working with.
If your Mom has a computer you could just save your Web pages as PDF (Portable Document Format) and each "page" of your Web site could be joined together into a single file. With the correct tools (and an online connection) she could view the thumbnail images and text in their current form and a click on the thumbnails would load the full sized images in any browser.
She has no computer, never has and never will.
But, she is a lifelong bibliophile and a book of the website she would truly appreciate and cherish.
You may also want to take a look at the Apple TV appliance. It could display your images on any modern TV (no text) in a slideshow mode with dozens of transitions and even a custom audio track.
I thought about this, but she is nearly deaf and TV is still TV - not a book.
Last, but not least, is the power of QuickTime Pro. Very easy to make a custom side show from your images and add an audio track. Then just send this file to your DVD burning software.
You can add text tracks (text over images or "black") and audio and even some simple transitions to make a nice DVD version.
A good idea for sharing with others - but not my mom.
I may look into using InDesign for the PC, but the thought of placing 800 images and the related text is quite daunting to me. That is why I had hope to use Aperture. It is some what automated/pre-laid out, but allow some customization.
Thanks again for the ideas and suggestions,
-Mike

Looking for Dreamweaver How to's

Hi all,
As a beginner, I am having problems with Dreamweaver CS4. Mainly with creating an email campain page. I have read so much on does and don't, which many people seem to disregard. I would like to know the following...
1. Should I use tables or divs or both, for holding text and images in position?
2. When I adjust the center line in a 3 row 3 column table, the center line moves in all rows. How do I adjust each center line in each row seperately?
3. When I send the HTML as email, the text and pictures move from their positions.
Can anyone point me to links that show beginner detailed page building?
Many thanks again,
HDsuperglide

Looking for Lion + InDesign users

Hi All,
I use InDesgin heavily for photographic album design, and since upgrading to Lion have hit an annoying problem.
When designing, I 'Place" (Command-D) images into the document, and do so by selecting my aperture library from the 'open' dialog (there is Aperture, Iphoto and Music in the lower area allowin direct access to your media).
Since upgrading to Lion it appears that I can only do this once per 'session', menaing if I place an image (or number of images), then go back with the Place command to add more, the "Open" buton is greyed out, but only for files in the media browser options (Aperture, iPhoto, Music) - I can 'Place' images form my desktop, or anywhere else in the sidebar of the 'Open' dialogue multiple times. To be able to place images from these Media areas more than once I am forced to quit InDeisgn and relaunch it - then I get one more shot at placing, before I need to quit again. The issue is common to both InDesign CS4 and inDesign CS5.
This is obviously a serious slowdown in my workfow, and I'm wondering if it's specific to my set up, or if it's happening to all Aperture/InDesign users.
Can aonyone else confirm this is the case - if not, I will know it's sepcific to my set up and eed to root around for the cause.
Thanks in advance for any helpers!
Ben

Same problem as above!
If you wanna test it, open InDesign and create a new document (just to start afresh).
1. Press Cmd+D to open the 'Place' window.
2. Click on 'Photos' from the 'Media' list on the left (the window that opens is what I call the media browser)
3. Select an image from your iPhoto / Aperture library and click 'Open'.
4. Place the image.
This works normally.
Now try to repeat steps 1-4. The second time you try, the 'Open' button is greyed out.
If you quit InDesign and reopen it, you can 'Place' one more image, but then you need to quit and reopen again to place more! It's a major slowdown for those of us who use InDesign everyday
Let us know how you get on.

ANNC: Image Gallery Magic for Dreamweaver and Fireworks

Picture perfect...
Bring your images to life with the most powerful,
feature-rich image
gallery solution available for Dreamweaver-Fireworks users:
Image
Gallery Magic by PVII - the leader in creative Dreamweaver
extensions.
Create image galleries from from inside Dreamweaver - in
Windows or OS
X - using the Fireworks processing engine. Image Gallery
Magic can
create the entire layout for you or you can insert a gallery
into an
existing page. While Image Gallery Magic is powered by
thoroughly modern
CSS and Scripting, we've taken great pains to ensure that
your gallery
will work in all modern browsers (on all operating systems)
and some key
older browsers, such as IE5.x (Windows and OS X).
http://www.projectseven.com/products/galleries/hgmagic/index.htm
All aspects of your gallery are managed from within the iGM
user
interface window.
Add (append) new images to your gallery. You can use the
automatic build
mode, which leverages the Fireworks image processing engine,
or you can
select images that you've already processed yourself in
Photoshop or any
other image editor.
Delete images or re-order them.
Manage Captions, Descriptions, and a counter - including
where they
appear.
Edit images (the edit command launches your default image
editor and
loads the selected image).
Re-generate thumbnails automatically after editing a
full-size image
(Fireworks interoperability).
Choose a full-size image to load when your page loads.
Select the number of thumbnails to display per row.
Enable smooth-glide scrolling of thumbnail rows.
Choose an animation effect for your full-size images.
Supports Dreamweaver Templates.
Allows direct linking to individual images.
Search-engine friendly.
Accessible - even with JavaScript disabled.

Thanks, Peter - they've been at it for a while.
Thanksgiving of 1977, my girlfriend (now wife) and I spent
the holidays with
them in Yellowstone Park (Gardner, MT) 'shooting' the bighorn
rams 'duke it
out' during rutting season. I have to say, that was quite a
spectacular
experience. Seeing those guys butt heads from as close as
several hundred
yards away was awesome. The impact was still as load as a
shotgun....

Office 365 Home Premium (2013) vs Excel Standalone (2013) - Looking for Power Pivot

Hi I have read a few comments here on this site but still have a question about the topic.
I currently have an OEM Office 365 Home Premium with Excel 2013 in it but no power pivot available. My objective is to get Power Pivot. Can anyone advise how can I do that? I installed my Office 365 using Click-To-Run so I don't think this allows me to disable
any specific application e.g. Excel 2013 that's bundled with the rest of Office 365 I purchased.
I heard that Excel 2013 Standalone can be bought and downloaded and it does come with power pivot add in. Is this true? If so can I buy the Excel 2013 standalone then run it side by side with the Office 365 Home Premium I have now installed or
will it clash and have issues when used together ?
MS official sites say you can only get the power pivot as add in if you purchase Office 365 Plus. I'm a bit confused. If that is true does it mean the Excel Standalone has no power pivot available?
Thanks and I'm looking for any seasoned user who can share their experience using Excel 2013 standalones or users with 365 having version 15.0.4649.1001
Thanks - Felix

Hi,
Power Pivot are available in the Office Professional Plus and Office 365 Professional Plus editions, and
in the standalone edition of Excel.
http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/excel-help/start-power-pivot-in-microsoft-excel-2013-add-in-HA102837097.aspx
Then, please note the following thing when you install Office 365 and other Office version side by side.
As you said, Office 365 usually uses Click to Run version(C2R), and Office 2013 MSI on a system with Office 365 (Click to Run) is NOT supported, thus, we need to install the C2R version of Excel 2013 standalone edition.

It's recommended to download and install

New Mac user looking for help with Finder, Preview, Keyboard, & Dock

So about a month ago I switched over from a lifelong Windows user to a brand new MacBook Pro, and while I am adjusting pretty well, there are still some things that I haven't quite figured out.
First up on the list is Finder! I like my files to be arranged just like how they are in Windows Explorer--folders first alphabetically, then files alphabetically. I've managed to acquire this setting by messing around with the "clean up by" and "arrange by" functions but I don't really know the specific combination. Most of the time these preferences are saved and set as the defaults under "View Options" but every once in a while it resets and I have to tinker around with the settings all over again. Does anyone know of a way to fix this? It's only happened twice so far, but I'd rather not have it happen again. Also, occasionally when I delete an item, there is a blank space left where the icon was instead of all the files following it bumping up a space. Any quick fixes for this bug?
Next up is Preview. Again, I like the Windows Way and I like to be able to browse between the files in a folder while using Preview/Windows Photo Viewer. I know that there is a way to browse between files if you select the whole folder and stick it in Preview, but is there a way to achieve the same result without having to do that? An app or "extension" of some sort that adds arrows in to browse between photos? I've had no luck finding anything other than the aforementioned option. Is there a good free alternative to Preview that will function similarly with the browse between photos option?
One of my favorite things about my new Mac is the backlit keyboard function. My old laptop didn't have it and as someone who is online more often at night it is super helpful. But is there a way to turn it off during the day/in bright settings? A way to put it on a timer? In System Preferences I selected the option "Adjust keyboard brightness in low light", which I assumed to mean would have the keyboard NOT very bright when there IS light, but it continues to light up just the same. Any apps or extensions to help with this one?
And finally, the dock! This question is more about aesthetics than functionality but help is appreciated all the same. Currently, my dock looks like this: http://i42.tinypic.com/35ktxlz.png It is rather opaque and the indicator lights can barely be seen. However, in a lot of tutorial videos I've been watching, many people have docks that look like this: http://i.i.cbsi.com/cnwk.1d/i/tim/2011/07/19/Lion_LaunchPad.png It is a darker shade of gray, the divider is dashed rather than a straight line, and the indicator lights are clearly visible. Does anybody know how to get this look for the dock? I've looked in the dock preferences but there's not really anything in there other than magnification/size/effects.
That about sums things up! I'm sorry if any of these seem like "silly" questions but they are all things I have been unable to find answers for. Any and all tips, tricks, and help is appreciated! Thanks in advance for all your help!!

congratulations on coming over from the dark side.
Seems like you are interested in column view, which would show you the hierarchy of folders and files: Column View in Mac OS X Mountain Lion - For Dummies Not sure what's going on if your finder settings don't stay put. May be a corrupted preferences file, which is easy to fix, but is perhaps a topic for another discussion.
What I'd suggest is to have an open mind and try to see what the mac can do, rather than force it to look like your windows machine. I mean, if you just want it to look like windows, then why bother switching? If you give it a little time, you'll start to appreciate the mac way of doing things, and see how it is infinitely more awesome, powerful, creative, intuitive, and better designed (and the software way better written) than what you left behind. But that's your call.
There are some threads on this forum with complaints about the backlight. Keyboard backlight settings query...: Apple Support Communities Evidently it depends on the angle of the screen and the light sensor relative to the light. Some suggest that a SMC reset may help: Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) This is not an issue for me, I just adjust the brightness with the keyboard buttons if I want. Real men shift their own gears, drink their coffee black, and adjust their own keyboard brightness. I am not aware of any software to exert more control over this feature but a search of macupdate Download Apple Mac Software & iPhone Software : MacUpdate may help. I mean, it's up to you what is important. I can waste a lot of time playing around with the GUI and with unnecessary software, or I can just get my work (and play) done.
You might prefer the no-glass dock, that removes the shelf, and makes the indicator lights like more discrete orbs. You can do this with the terminal. Using the terminal is also, perhaps, a topic for another discussion.I like the 2D dock much better. If you want I'll give you some directions for how to do it. Otherwise, here's a reference: 2D Dock - MacRumors Forums
