Two simple questions: apologies if they are obvious

As a recent convert from Windows, a couple of things are nagging at me. Firstly is there a keystroke or shortcut for end of line or start of line i.e. what I mean is basic cursor control?
Secondly my wife now has a mini-mac. She has a PC keyboard that she carried forward - no shame there that's how they market it! So is there a way of mapping the Mac's keyboard settings to recognize the PC keypad rather than a Mac keyboard e.g. the transposition of the double quote character and the @ sign?
I'm new at this so apologies if it's obvious.
Thanks

I think I've found the answer on the internet. This article explains how British keyboards are not adequately mapped by Apple but how you can do it. It's pretty involved.

  • I have two different 5s's with two different phone numbers but they are both using the same iCloud/apple account. After upgrading to iOS8 when I get a phone call on one phone both phones ring.

    I have two different 5s's with two different phone numbers but they are both using the same iCloud/apple account. After upgrading to iOS8 when I get a phone call on one phone both phones ring. One phone is for work and one is for private and I don't need both phones to ring from one call. It's bizarre.......is this supposed to be like this? If so where can I turn it off?? And while we are at it iOS8 has installed iBooks on both of my phones and iTunes won't let me uninstall it. I don't need or want iBooks on my phones.

    Hi,
    There are two easy fixes to this.
    One, you can set up Family Sharing, in which you can have two different iCloud Accounts, yet still share the same apps, music, media etc.
    Two, go to Settings and turn-off "Handoff". This can be found under the General page.
    Hope this helps!

  • I have just rented two movies and after download they are not visible anywhere in iTunes for me to watch.

    I have just rented two movies and after download they are not visible anywhere for me to view. Usually in the iTunes menu there is an option call 'rentals' where rented movies sit until they expire, this is no longer visible. The movie files are listed in the finder under music/movies.... With the rest of my iTunes data, but they will not play in iTunes from there and I can't add them to my library for watching.
    The only thing I am currently doing differently is that I have just subscribed to iTunes Match; would this affect my rentals?

    Hi Cmcb,
    Under your Library list, you should see "Movies". Click on that, and you will see a screen with several tabs at the top - Rentals, Unwatched, Movies, Genres, Home Videos, etc.
    As Hackintosh indicated above, click on the Rentals tab, and your movies will be displayed there. Doulbe click on one to start playing it.
    If you do not have your sidebar showing, go up to View at the top, and click on Show Sidebar. Then you will see your Library lists on the sidebar, which will include Movies.

  • HT201272 Followed the directions on this page. Books are not listed among the options at step five, only movies tv shows and music, so how do I download my books then? I previously purchased two audiobooks on iTunes.  They are available on my iPad, but no

    Followed the directions on this page. Books are not listed among the options at step five, only movies tv shows and music, so how do I download my books then? I previously purchased two audiobooks on iTunes.  They are available on my iPad, but not here.

    If you go into Edit > Preferences then on the General tab on the popup that you get you should be able to select which types of content 'show' - tick the box against 'Books' :
    Books then show under your 'Library' - if you select it, are those audiobooks listed there ?

  • Two simple questions i cant figure out please help!

    hey guys, i used soundtrack before on a 20 minute long project and i looked all over and cant figure out how to do this one simple thing! its a professional audio editing program but i cant figure out how to do a simple fade in or have a clip just fade out...i couldnt find it in the help either...it would deffidently help in my project and blend everything together nicer...im not talking about a transition between two clips but just a single clip alone having it fade in and fade out?
    my other question is the audio levels. i see on the left hand side you can adjust it for each individual layer...but is there anyway to adjust the individual clips? the project i did before that was 20 minutes had like 25 layers! because all of the layers had usually one seperate clip alone in it since i couldnt make each clip in the layer have its own individual unique audio level adjustment. im sure there is a way and its probably real simple!
    these are jus two dumb questions i feel stupid for aksing for but would be greatly appreciated if you could help!!! thanks!!!

    Maybe this will be fixed in 2.0. For now, if you right click on the clip and choose "open in editor", the clip will open as an audio file. There you'll be able to highlight an area and select "fade out" (or fade in). It will update in your multi track project.
    You can do the same thing for levels. Or you can use the envelope levels, set keyframes, and adjust the gain accordingly.
    I know, not an easy way to do a lot of clips.

  • I uploaded two videos to YouTube. They are not visible in AppleTV, even though all my other YouTube videos are there. Why can't I see the videos I uploaded?

    i can't see my uploaded youtube videos

    Have they gone live, check the account and also that they are set to public. Also, if there are copyright issues.
    If you have an IOS device check to see if they are visible there

    No reputable company will call you for this purpose, they're crooks, trying to steal from you.
    Ignore them.

  • Signed up for two years two months ago and now they are taking away my Music Channels!!

    I signed up for the triple play back in December for two years, HD ultimate. I received an E-mail yesterday that all of my Music channels 1800 to 1845 will be gone unless I pay another $35 a month!!
    I called up and Verizon says our provider is changing their plan. I indicated I signed a two year contract with Verison and I can care less about their provider isssues.
    So what are my options? Anybody else dealing with this **bleep**?
    Thanks

    I wouldn't assume because you or others may not have receive notice as an indication that this isn't possible. For example, I have yet to receive any notice from Verizon about the removal of the Bridge TV & Funimation channels like many other customers. Verizon is dropping the ball with exisiting customers and their own customer service reps based on conversations I had with them. I'm not sure if it is conscious tatic or effort of not informing exisiting customers of programming changes. But it seems to be an ongoing issue by just the posts you see on this forum.

  • Two simple questions

    I know this is basic, but I can't find the answers, sorry. Everything seems to tell me how to deal with a graphic in Pages, but I can't figure out how to import a simple piece of clip art. In addition I downloaded the clip art from the Microsoft site. How do I find the graphic. I run Parallels on the machine, so I guess the clip art is somewhere on the PC side of this machine.
    Thanks

    I can't guess from which OS you downloaded the Microsoft's clipart.
    It may be done from MacOS or from the other OS.
    You are supposed to know which location you defined for downloaded items.
    Under MacOS X 10.5.x, the default folder is:
    <bootVolume>:Users:<yourAccount>:Downloads:
    If the file is in one of the recognized format, you just drag & drop it onto the iWork's document window.
    Of course, the list of these formats is available in the Help as well as in the PDF User Guide.

  • EDI GS01 envelope fields question on how they are set.

    I had an edi app that used a edisend pipeline and even though I had parties and agreements with GS02 etc defined and set except GS01 it was blank but the documents came out fine for both 940 (OW) and 856 (SH) I never did anything (consciously) to set this
    field so I was surprised when I re-wrote the app to use dynamic send ports and GS01 was not being set.
    I was able to set it in the message construct in the orchestration but what is driving me crazy is how did it get set before? I thought it was because of the document id in the schema but if this was the case why did changing the app to use dynamic
    ports broke it? The schemas are the same ..
    Any clarification from the experts would be appreciated.
    Regards.  
    Bico Bielich

    ISA and GS values are inserted from party configuration.
    If you had schema deployed, EDI sendpipeline will resolve the parties depending upon message type of outgoing message which is Targetnamespace#Rootnode.
    In your first case you might have added send port inside agreement.
    For Dynamic Send port, please read below:
    A dynamic send port enables you to send an interchange to any one of multiple destinations, because it resolves the agreement and determines the destination address based upon the value in the
    DestinationPartyName context property.
    Note
    If you are sending an EDI interchange that is based upon an XML message received, and you are using a passthrough receive pipeline to receive that application, you will have to promote the DestinationPartyName context property. For more information, see Agreement
    Resolution and Schema Determination for Outgoing EDI Messages.

  • 8g iTouch 4g. Two movies trying to download, they are 3.7g ea. I want to cancel them, but there is no such option!

    I have 5.4 gb free (because I recently did a restore, b/c these two movie downloads eventually take all my space!). I pause one movie download (to allow the other to finish) and that doesn't help.  I figure I can stop the one download right away, let one finish, then I can delete it, then let the 2nd one download, but it doesn't even download 1 of them!  It will come up with a space error, even though in iTunes it shows I have 5.4gb free...   I have read that I can stop the downloads by deleting the files from var\mobile\media\downloads, but that requires me to jailbreak, which I don't want to do.  Please help.  I think my only option is to wipe and setup as a new ipod, which I don't really want to do....

  • I want to buy an iPad Air and iPad Mini online, my question is if they are unlocked so I can use it on my country

    I`m from Costa Rica and want to buy an iPad mini and Air, when I try to buy it online I have to choose Verizon, Mobile, etc. to add it to my cart, is this normal buying on line so I can use it unlocked in my country.

    Some iPads have the ability to connect to a cellular connection for data.  This usually requires a subscription contract of 2 years.  If this is not what you want, don't choose the iPads with data services and just use WiFi.

  • Audio appears on two seperate Audio Tracks but they are not routed together

    Hi folks,
    Sorry for this, I have done a search of the forum but couldn't find what I am looking for answer wise so I need some help.
    1. I load up an Apple loop onto track one
    2. I then create a new audio track
    3. I then load a new Apple loop
    When I load the second Apple loop, the first one not only plays through audio track 1's output but also audio track 2's output.
    If I solo the second loop I can still here the first.
    Any ideas?

    If I solo the second loop I can still here the first
    Aside from what Sam said, it's also possible that you have soloed loop 2 while playing loop 1 in the Loops browser. The solo in the Arrange track will not silence what might be playing in the Loops browser.

  • Do I need a different apple id for each device? I have two iPads and an iPod but can only purchase things on the first one. When I go to verify the questions they say they are wrong.

    Do I need a different apple ID for each device I have? I have two iPads and an iPod but I can only make purchases with the first one I purchased. It tells me the security questions are wrong but I know they are not because I wrote them down. I have also reset them and my password once. Please help if you can

    You can not login into iTunes or the App Store using VPP credentials. You must purchase all apps/book/etc.  from the VPP website. Then you can redeem the codes thru itunes/app store or import the codes thru apple configurator. Here is the url for the VPP website: https://volume.itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/login?cc=us
    (It will not affect any of the apps you already have but the id can only be used for VPP.)
