Damon, in regard to pdf files, Preview is your friend! It's the
default app (or at least, should be) to open all pdf files, and is a
terrific option to use to read them. it should be fairly self-
explanatory, but a couple of things to note, once you find / interact
with the content area are that the Apple or command key plus left
arrow moves you back a page and apple right arrow moves you forward.
There are also a plethora of options you can set in the menus for
reading the document continuously etc. if you choose.
HTH and have a great evening!…
Smiles,
Cara :)

OK, I bought a macbook pro and have a mini. The macbook pro already
has win
xp on it as well as os 10.5.3. I have the windows side well covered,
naturally, but I want some pointers on how to get started with the
mac side.
I know voice over to a basic degree. I would like to know everything
I can
about doing the following:
messengers on the mac. What works best for aol and windows messenger
web browsing, best place to go to learn how to read in html areas
reading pdf documents.
playing music over a network, i.e. music stored on a shared hard
drive on a
windows box
basic operating system operation, i.e. burning CDs, moving, copying
files,
etc.
Whatever else you can pint me to that will give me a push in the right
direction.
I am a native windows user. I don't plan on dumping windows anytime
soon,
but I do want to learn the Mac and use it. My plans for the mac mini
were to
use it for shoutcast radio streaming, but again, I do want to do
email,
browsing, etc. The macbook pro is mainly for work, but I also want
to do
music related stuff with software instruments, recording and the
like. Any
pushes in the right direction will help. i am a techie geek kind of
person,
so don't need a ton of hand holding, just point me to documentation
and
keyboard shortcuts and I'll figure it out.
