Hi Claire,
Having used OS 9 until New Year's, I am embarrassed to admit that I
never used this function (it rings familiar in my ears, so I guess I
knew about it, but...)... How silly, this sounds really sensible to
use, especially for "people like me", I guess - who have joint
problems... I use other keyboard shortcuts, like e.g. Option+C for
copy etc., but that's it... I would be very interested in hearing
about possibilities for doing this under OSX. I will be upgrading to
Tiger soon too.
I just got my iBook back for the 3rd time, having been without it
alltogether for around 4 months, because of that "little backlight
problem". The last time Apple said that the company that does repairs
for them, hadn't replaced all the parts they should have, so they
needed one more chance, but their normal practice was that if a
computer had not been fixed on 3 tries, the customer should get a new
one. Now I got it back, and see they changed the logiboard only,
which they did before, so I can't help but wonder, if it will last
this time. I also discovered that they screen is separated from it's
"frame", so it needs to go back. And I really don't feel like letting
them have it again, God knows how long it will take, and I am sick
and tired of it all. Plus the loaner they finally gave me this last
time (after waiting for 3 weeks, never offered me one before), was
kind of crappy (pardon my french, but I don't find only working a
little in iPhoto with 3-4 pics before it crashes, too much fun)...
Well, I mailed the company, and guess I will be calling Apple
tomorrow, so we'll see... Hopefully I can soon feel that I can really
get going using MY wonderful "new" iBook, with everything in order
and working and learning to enjoy OS X properly (instead of moaning
over having to use a mess of a PC or an awful old PB loaner without
airport and way too little RAM)... That company has had this iBook
more time than I have since I bought it...
Oh shoot, now this will probably be too long... And sorry, didn't
mean to dump this on you and the rest, guess I more or less blurted
it out, can you tell I have had it?
Good luck with the shortcuts, hope it works out!!!
AaseM. :)
