strange youtube behavior

Hi everyone, I recently reinstalled yosemite on my mac (a clean install just as the time before). Since then i have noticed some strange behavior on the youtube site. In the past, if i clicked on a username and went to their videos tab and hit the first video there i could then

Re: iMac versus MBA?

Hello, I completely agree here. I’ve had this iMac here for a while now, and once everything loads up, it’s pretty fast, and it’s one from a couple years ago that only has 4 GB of RAM. One thing that could possibly be going on is Spotlight could be indexing everything in the background still for

Re: iMac versus MBA?

Hi, What are the specs on the iMac? I’m guessing that it probably has a spinning HD as opposed to the MBA’s Flash storage. Flash storage has considerably faster access than any spinning HD, especially if the spinning HD is only 5400 RPM’s. Depending on the model of the iMac, the default RAM

iMac versus MBA?

Hi all, As some of you may remember, my employer has purchased an iMac for me. I am sorry to say it, but I've been incredibly disappointed in the iMac. I had expected it to perform better than my MBA, but the opposite seems to be the case. It boots very slowly, and voiceover cuts in and out

Re: Tying contacts to calendar events?

I assume you mean I should type the name in the Location field, not the Invitees field. If so, will that then know I'm meeting with John? That is, could I bring up his contact card and text or call him? > On Jan 14, 2015, at 6:21 PM, Nicholas Parsons > wrote: > > Yes, absolutely. In the event

Re: Sheet layout area in numbers

I think there is a basic misunderstanding here. I am referring to the order in which the table names appear in the sheet layout area. That is, when I interact with the slo, and then VO right arrow through the table names contained therein, their order changes, not the names themselves. for examp

Re: Tying contacts to calendar events?

Yes, absolutely. In the event inspector you can select add invitees. This allows you to add people from your contacts. If the event is taking place at John’s house, you can type, “John” in the location field, and Calendar will pop up suggestions of places you might mean. You can navigate between

Re: VO can not identify Calendar events

Most of my verbosity is set to medium, a few are set to custom or low, but I’m not sure these are things which would affect the Calendar. And I’m not sure with me why it’s only some Calendar events which are not announced and others are announced fine. > On 15 Jan 2015, at 3:59 am, Pablo Sandov

Re: Sheet layout area in numbers

Hi Phil, It doesn’t affect the table names. Table names are assigned based on when they are created and are, in any event, changeable. The table names are not based on or dependant upon their position in the sheet layout area. You can have table 3 above table 1, etcetera. > On 15 Jan 2015, at

Tying contacts to calendar events?

Hi all, I have a question about calendar events: can I somehow tie contacts to them? For instance, if I have John in my contacts and I set up an event for next week, which is a meeting with John, can I tell that event which John I mean? That way, as I'm looking at the event, I could contact John

Hi Nicholas, I have resolved this issue for me. It turned out that I had my verbosity set on low, once I switched it to medium VO is able to identify calendar events again. I hope this helps you as it did me. . > On Jan 14, 2015, at 12:42 AM, Nicholas Parsons > wrote: > > I’m having a similar

Re: Sheet layout area in numbers

thanks Nick, I think I’ll just live with it. Evidently Numbers is auto arranging tables on the canvas as it thinks it is needed. I don’t know how that would impact the order of the table names in the sheet layout area though. Not important enough for me to bother with now. > On Jan 14, 2015, a

Re: Itunes match stalling checking songs

Actually, I solved it; thanks! I had googled it but the solutions looked awfully complicated me. So first I tried stopping the process, turning off iTunes match, and quitting iTunes, then re-opening iTunes and turning on iTunes match. This time it still stalled in step 2, about nine songs sooner
