Training videos for OS X

I recently bought an iMac for my parents, who are seniors without even basic computer skills. Does anyone know of a good video instruction course for Mac which will cover everything from fundamentals, such as mousing, to basic OS skills? iSight/iChat is a great way for them to keep in touch with their many grandchildren (they tried and loved video conferencing), but they need to overcome their computer phobias and be able to launch and work with programs first. I'm looking for the most basic instructional videos I can get for them.
Thanks for any insights.

Hi, Thomas.
See also my "Learning About Mac OS X" FAQ. Several video resources cited, both online and on disc.
Good luck!

Adobe Connect training video for the Learner and their engagement in virtual sessions

I am looking for a short Adobe Connect video on the Learners' role in virtual collaboration, communication and their engagement in virtual sessions: their use of the tools, expectations, etc. A training video for the virtual learner.

I am currently having the same issue, the only difference is that I am publishing Captivate projects into Connect courses/curriculums. The Captivate (v5) projects are basically a demo and I want the attendee to receive credit for viewing the demo after the demo window closes (the setting at the end of last slide). I have tried to enable/disabe the Quiz reporting along with other settings with no luck. After the demo closes I receive a pause icon and I want a green check mark. Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you.

When will training videos for creative cloud be updated?

Please let us know when new videos will be posted?
I will need good videos for new people on my team.
In general, videos (that as of a few days ago were available through the "Training" link from the Creative Cloud) are old and out of date. They are still advertised in a link to the right as "New Tutorial Videos."
-All videos are for previous interface
Videos with entirely unusable information?
"Recovering Deleted Files in Creative Cloud"
"Selecting, Moving, and Deleting Files in Creative Cloud"
Videos that are mostly accurate, though interface remains different:
"Managing Individual Creative Files in Creative Cloud"
"Sharing and Downloading Files in Creative Cloud"
I have not seen any answers on this topic. Let me know if they already exist.
There were no results for when will training videos for creative cloud be updated?

I posted with screenshots how to Archive and Permanently Files here http://forums.adobe.com/message/5087298#5087298.
If you have questions about how to do specific things let me know and I will post screenshots.

Flash Training Videos ?

I just would like to know why training videos like the ones
on Lynda.Com for Adobe Products are in Apple Quicktime format and
not In Adobe Flash format ?
Thank for any infomation you can give me.
Scott

Scott,
> I just would like to know why training videos like the

> on Lynda.Com for Adobe Products are in Apple Quicktime
> format and not In Adobe Flash format ?
I don't work for Lynda.com, but I have a hunch.
Lynda.com has been producing training videos for a
looooooong time.
Back in the day, before Flash video became so popular,
QuickTime was (I'd
say) the best way to deliver video on CDs and over the
Internet. So they
built QuickTime into their production workflow ... and there
you have it.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
That's just a wild guess. Of course, it simply be that they
prefer
QuickTime over FLV, just like someone prefers Coke over
Pepsi, or vice
versa. They also produce tutorials for Microsoft Office, and
those videos
are also done in QuickTime, as opposed to, say, Windows Media
(WMV) files.
Should they use the video format of whatever company owns
the software
they're training on? ;)

Need recommendation for training video software and Flash

Can the experts here please recommend some product to record a computer screen session that then imports well into Flash?
I want to build training videos that record the screen session and my voice and am looking for a software product that can do this.
Any recommendations?
Thanks,
Jay

Thanks for the link but this did not meet our requirement and I hope that
some expert here in this forum can help. There are hundreds of
solutions out there but most are just screen session recorders without voice.
A couple have a feature to add voice seperately. What we need is similar to
an actual video recording including voice where both go hand in hand with any
seprate integration.
A video camera would not be practical, but certainly there must be some software
that would provide similar recording, both the screen session and sound?
This woule be a recording of the screen session with a person speaking into a microphone.
Any recommendations?
Thanks again,
Jay

Can not see training videos - message "We can't find the page you are looking for, please return to the Apple Support homepage?

Can not open Training Videos shown on Apple Site - message comes us " we can not find the page you are looking for - please return to the main Apple Site"? Help

You've used the wrong name for the folder that holds the html page.
http://web.mac.com/artworksforyouth/iWeb/Site/Home.html
Is what it is trying to find (and it doesn't exist).
www.artworksforyouth.org redirects to www.artworksforyouth.com which then redirects to your iWeb page.
Rather than the word "Site" in your URL you need to use ArtWorks%20for%20Youth

SD or HD for Training Video

I'm producing a training video that teaches employees various aspects of using an XP program in our business. I would like to incorporate several moving screen captures. The cameras I have available for this job are:
1 HVX200 HD or DV
2 GL2 Canon DV
I plan to output to DVD.
I'm new to the HVX200. It seems to me that I should just capture everything in DV - edit in DV and output to DVD in DV.
I suppose I'll get to start using the HD at some point but not yet.
The moving screen captures I would like to use are of an XP program and it seems that the screen capture programs for XP like Camtasia or Screen-Recorder Gold produce an AVI file. Can I bring this AVI file into my FCP timeline and mix it with my DV video footage easy enough?
Thanks.
Mike

I see
many people shooting HD then down converting to edit
in DV.
yes, i will originate a show in hd to sd broadcast in real time and in the hardware downconversion will get screwed when the color space conversion takes place because i won't have a net return to judge my colorimetry by, typically because it's all about money, not quality.
