Maybe a silly question but...

Is there a keyboard shortcut to write stuff like ½?

You do not need third party software to do this. Follow these directions.
Go into *System Preferences* and choose International. Now pick *Input Menu* and check the box for *Character Palette* and *Keyboard Viewer*. At the bottom of that window choose *Show Input Menu in menu bar.* A little flag will pop up on the bar. Use this to open the pallette. I have mine to view all characters. Under Symbols choose *Numbers and Number Symbols*. This will let you choose what you need. This is a very handy thing to have so I suggest exploring it to see what all you can do with it.

    You will need to do it using a third-party utility such as Phone to PC. Also, see:

    You can get the latest jQuery Mobile Themes directly from jQuery Mobile's web site.

    A Pages (.pages) document is only viewable with Apple's Pages application on the Mac, or via Pages for iCloud beta. You should export it to either MS Word (.doc/x) or PDF. The Share menu will let you do this directly into a Mail attachment.

  • This maybe a dumb question but...If I buy Aperture are the updates already installed into the purchased version or do I need to update them?

    This maybe a dumb question but...If I buy Aperture are the updates already installed into the purchased version or do I need to update them after the prograam is installed?

    Should come updated from the Mac App Store. Obviously, it's tough to keep things up to date when they are sitting in a box on a store shelf.

  • This may seem like a silly question but I need it answered plz

    This may seem like a silly question but I am pretty new to
    dreamweaver but I am learning it. The question I have is this. When
    your typing a paragraph and hit enter to make the next line of text
    it goes down 2 spaces. Sometimes I don't want those two spaces. I
    want no space between the two sentences. How do you put one
    sentence below another with no spaces? Thanks in advance. I seems
    to have figured out all the other basic stuff except for this one
    thing lol. Thanks for the help in advance.

  • This is a silly question, but I cannot fix it! The icons that appear on my photos after I edit them, have gone away. The only way I can see them is in the Grid view. How can I get the icons back on the thumbnail photos of the full gallery that is loaded?

    You have likely dragged the size of the filmstrip thumbnails to a small size that prevents Lightroom from displaying the badges. Using your mouse, mouse over the top line of the filmstrip and then drag it supports to increase the size.

  • This may seem a silly question, but how can I create a new mailbox on my iPad?

    This may seem a silly question, but how can I create a new mailbox on my iPad?

    A new mailbox/folder - you can't, not yet. If you're using an IMAP mail account, you can create a mailbox on the server (either through webmail or desktop mail) and it'll appear on the iPad.
    We've been told the upcoming iOS5 will allow you to do so (I assume, provided you have IMAP).

  • Maybe a silly question...are unoffical OS (leaks) safe/secure to use?

    So maybe this is a silly question....I have been trying to downgrade my OS after my TMobile phone somehow downloaded an ATT update (10.2.1.3014) that wasn't supported by the Tmobile network and caused all sorts of problems with the device.
    After extensive work with Blackberry Support, I am told there is no way to "officially" downgrade back to the Tmobile supported version (10.2.1.2228).
    This leaves the files or "leaks" (if you want to call them that), that are available in the forums through the autoloaders.  Obviously not knowing where those files came from, who posted them, or what, if any modifications have been made, I'm worried about security, malware, privacy, etc.
    Are these things safe and secure to use just like an official OS would be?  Is there anyway to verify? 
    Thanks in advance for your help.  Sorry if its a silly question.

    Hello, 
    The autoloaders have no malware or viruses... at least I haven`t heard about any of that. I have used Autoloaders before and the only thing I can suggest is to make sure you download the proper files (OS and radio files) for your phone. In any case case, make sure you do a backup. 
    If you have more questions, ask away. 
    Good luck

  • Same old silly questions, but just to confirm!

    I have some idea of the answers to my questions but the more I read in the forum the more uncertain I've become...
    1. I can use the TC as an external hard drive, but what about the transfer speed? Is it similar to the speed of a USB hard drive? If it is slower, will I still be able to watch movies/listen to music files on the TC with my Macbook?
    2. Can I connect TC to a computer using an ethernet cable so I can use it as a wired hard drive?
    3. I can back up my computer using Time Machine, but to use TC as a hard drive as well, do I need to do something complex (for me), like 'partitioning' the TC or something?
    4. I already have a wireless router (and network, I think) and don't want to stop using it. Will TC interfere with anything? As in if I start using TC will Leopard try and make me set something up?
    5. Can I plug in the USB printer and use it as if it was directly plugged into my computer, including scanning functions? If I press the scan button on my printer, will the scanning software automatically load on my computer? Will any USB printer work? Is further set-up required?
    Thanks for reading my questions. I just got a Macbook Air and I'm all new to the wireless world.

    1. Over a gigibit ethernet cabled connection, speed will be faster that that of a USB hard drive. For any other connection type (ie 100 Mbps ethernet, or 802.11a/b/g/n wireless, it will be slower.
    2. Yes you can connect TC to a computer using an ethernet cable.
    3. Currently available information is insufficient to answer this question.
    4. You can connect TC to an existing network without having to change anything about your current network setup or configuration.
    5. You can plug a USB printer into TC. If you connect a multifunction printer to TC, only its printer function will work and scanning/faxing will not. Not all USB printers work, and multifunction printer are among the more problematic to get even their print function working.

  • Might be a silly question but...

    As the folks Demotivators said, "There are no stupid questions, but there are a lot of inquisitive idiots." So here goes.
    Why should I be using Filevault. I had it turned on for awhile after I bought the Mini, but after noticing the huge amount of harddrive space it used up, I turned it off. Now however, with my FTP running, is it something I should consider turning back on?
    I've read up on Apple's site on what it does, how it would take 149 trillion years and whatnot to crack it it, encrypts and decrypts on the fly, etc. But what's all that mean for me. Can anyone put it into laymens terms on what exactly it's function is and who it prevents from doing what? If I have it turned on and I've got the login screen on, will it take them 149 million years to break go around it or something?
    Thanks,
    Stephen
    Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    Stephen,
    An Unencrypted Look at FileVault, by François Joseph de Kermadec is an excellent discussion of the features, pitfalls, and cautions regarding Filevault.
    Although the article discusses Panther and is dated 12/19/2003, the concepts as they apply Tiger have not changed.
    The cautions and warnings are prominent in any of the Apple Knowledge Base articles referring to the use of FileVault. If a user is unfamiliar with any aspect of FileVault, it should not in my opinion be activated.
    As good as FileVault is in protecting your sensitive data, it also presents the danger of locking up your files in an irretrievable ball of one's and zero's. Backups are critical. You must ensure that you have a comprehensive backup plan. Backup and Recovery, by Dr. Smoke is a fine example of what you need to consider.

  • Silly question, but can you share apps between family members (iPhone)?

    My wife has just purchased an iPhone awaiting del.
    Question
    can you share your apps or not?
    if she has her own apple id...
    I would think not as I cannot seem to find anything to suggest it.
    But thought i would ask the community.
    and is there away around it?????????? 
    thanks again

    EDIT: It seems Apple have changed the AppStore Terms and Conditions since I last read them thoroughly.
    Here's the relevant sections:
    If you are an individual acting in your personal capacity, you may download and sync an App Store Product for personal, noncommercial use on any iOS Device you own or control.
    You may auto-download iTunes Auto-Delivery Content or download previously-purchased iTunes Eligible Content from an Account on up to 10 Associated Devices, provided no more than 5 are iTunes-authorized computers.
    (ii) An Associated Device can be associated with only one Account at any given time.
    (iii) You may switch an Associated Device to a different Account only once every 90 days.
    (iv) You may download previously-purchased free content onto an unlimited number of devices while it is free on the iTunes Service, but on no more than 5 iTunes-authorized computers.

  • Silly question but I really need HELP please!!!

    Hey I'd like to write a program and build up many classes.
    My problem is now I've got all the classes and couldn't get them right to work together as one program.
    for example I've got a class user and two diffrent kinds of users as childlasses.
    the users itself are constructed in a network listener class but I've also a gui how can I get them right work together in one program. See I need to have this object stored in one place but I cannot store them in a object without knowing the objekt itself or do I didn't understand that right.
    So how can I store these objects (add and remove) and search through them or do you have other possible solutions.
