Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted October 31, 2008 Root Admin Posted October 31, 2008 I've joined the MAC ranks. We now have 3 mac's in the family/biz. I bought a Mac Pro last week and just got my cs4 web software today so I'm loaded for bear. But it's tough getting used to the different way this works and acts. One thing is finding/saving/moving files around. Explorer was easy. I understood c:/ drive and the filing system. Mac is difficult to read, IMO. I've connected my 2 screens today and having alittle trouble keeping them inline. One screen wants to bleed over into the next. The curser in the corner to change apps is a pain too. Gotta find a new way. I have to go to the right screen and upper right corner and that's along way to go if you're working in the left screen. Any thoughts?
jdmidwest Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 I have a feeling you may be close to being on your own. Not much help with a Mac. Some of my first experiences with PC's was with Apple IIc. If it helps, the original Windows was stolen from Apple GUI so you should find some similarities. Best bet is to Google the problem on the net and see if you can find a solution.

cnr Posted October 31, 2008 Posted October 31, 2008 I manage a web design group in St Louis and work on both the MAC and PC platform, but mostly MAC. Have you gone into the system preferences to align the two monitors yet? For changing applications have you used the dock, or are you going to the hard drive icon in the upper right corner? You should be using the dock for accessing applications and you can position it wherever you want on the edge of the screen (left, bottom, or right). Give me a call and I can walk you through these things if you want. Mark Stineman 314-640-5843
