Heya all,  Couple of unrelated questions that happened to have

Firstly I'm trying to get a screenshot off my iPhone. The preview  
method works fine for photos to get them into the mac. The  
screenshots however appear in .png format greyed out and are unable  
to be touched. From what I can gather looking around I think its  
possible with iPhoto which I don't have installed. I could email  
the files if I had mail setup which I don't.


Secondly my Mother is trying to learn using the various mac  
programs and is after a iWorks Tutorial/walkthrough or the like.  
She is after a basic course which explains as much as possible she  
can run through at her own pace? Anyone know of a good place to  
look for such a tutorial?


Hello Wez,

If you take a screenshot of your iPhone's display by "quickly press  
& release the Sleep/Wake & Home buttons at the same time", the  
screenshot is added to the Camera Roll.
You can then use iPhoto on your Mac to import the photo from the  
iPhone's Camera Roll.

Are you saying you don't have iPhoto installed on your Mac?

For your Mother:
I find The Apple Training Series are very good, I have the iWork '08  
and a few others. They have not released a iWork '09 as yet, I don't  
think.



"This self-paced learning guide, which includes a companion CD jam- 
packed with practical media files, takes you step-by-step through  
essential, real-life tasks for home and office that cover all  
aspects of iWork '08. The book is both a self-paced learning tool  
and the official curriculum of the Apple Training and Certification  
Program, used by schools and training centers worldwide, and is  
ideal for users of all levels."


Cheers,
Ronni

Thanks Mike - pity that the  iWorks 09 at Peachpit is in US$s.  Works 
out more expensive than their iWorks 08 at the Apple Store Australia. 
Them's the rubs!

Hello Merv and WAMUGers,

Peachpit is USA.
Apparently it is not published in Australia until 23 April 2009, so  
presume the Apple Store Australia will have it soon after that date.
The Apple Store US has it 


I have purchased a few a books from Seekbooks Australia & I have just  
done a search on their site and they have iWork 09. & iLife 09 for  
$40.46 ea.
But NPY (not printed yet), so not sure when delivery would be, some  
time after 23 April 09 I guess.


 





Cheers,
Ronni
