JonMack Posted August 19, 2007 Report Share Posted August 19, 2007 (edited) Safari has a built in spell checker, Control click on a text box, and go Spelling>Check spelling as you type. Then when a word is underlined red, Control + click on it and the suggestions will come up in the drop down menu.To print screen press Apple + Shift + 3, it will save as a PNG on the desktop, if you just wanna do a section of the screen, Apple + Shift + 4 will bring up a crosshair for you to draw out an area. Again will be a PNG on the desktop, named Picture *.pngDunno about the greeting when you turn it on, sorry.If you need me, you got my msn.

JonMack Posted August 20, 2007 Report Share Posted August 20, 2007 You need a remote desktop client. Try downloading this http://sourceforge.net/projects/cotvnc/You need to make sure in system preferences you have ticked "VNC viewers may control screen with password" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krisboats Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 Seriously dude, have you even tried using google?Within 2 minutes on google and the third result i cam across "The little blue arrow bubble should disappear once you publish the site, and view it online or from the disc.They are there when you are designing the site and disappear once it is published."In fact most of the answers to these questions can be found in a matter of a couple of minutes on google.

RR_Trials Posted August 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 I couldn't think of what to type into google, thought getting rid of little blue arow in iWeb just sounded a stupid think to search but cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Jennings Posted August 23, 2007 Report Share Posted August 23, 2007 Also what the feck doyou guys use as a substitute for microsoft paint, i mean when you need to quickly printscreen or somert.And dose anyone know how i can get it to talk to me like, say hi when i turn it on etc.We dont use a substitute for paint. that would be hell. We use photoshop To get it to talk to you you can probably download a 3rd party application. Try sites like www.macupdate.com or www.google.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
