    Aren't they working on that? I thought that Leopard was going to be released for PC's.

    Nica, why not convert to AVI or an mpg?

    You know what I just noticed, now maybe I'm not seeing it but I just realized that the Mac dosent have a "delete" button like the PC does.

    I mean it does have a delete button but it behaves like the backspace button the the PC...or am I not seeing it on the key pad of the MacBook Pro? :confused:

    The other thing I'm having a hard time adjusting is where things are saved? I feel as though the Mac has things all over the place, kind hard for me to keep track where everything is, I'm slowly getting to know where things are or where I'm saving things but if anyone has any tips that may help me here I'd love to hear them :peace:

    Nica,

    Well you are on a laptop and I don't recall many laptops with the delete button (the one near the 10 key touch).

    You can use function-delete (backspace to PC users) if you are trying to delete out something in the middle of a sentence.

    "Pretend I want to delete this sentence"
    ------------------^ if you pressed fn-del here you'd delete the t then the o then the space, then the d and so on.


    Documents should be stored under your home/documents directory(folder). It's not much different than how Windows stores them truthfully.

    Are you talking about saving documents such as a word processor document, or saving files downloaded from the internet?

    No, I was doing things completely wrong...a co-worker and I purchased the same computer brought it in and he gave me some tips on how to use it and how programs are installed for Mac's. Very helpful oh and how to properly save files on folders I choose.

    mb43, well it was a combination of both. Files I downloaded and so on I had no idea where I was placing them but now I have an idea of what I was doing to the poor Mac :shakhead:

    I appreciate the help though :peace:
