[Rapchaid]

Hey, what did you use to record your screen?

[ForeverG5]

@Rapchaid Hey, I used an application called Screenflow for the Mac.

[Rapchaid]

@ForeverG5 was that not like $100?

[ForeverG5]

@Rapchaid Yes Screenflow is $99

[Rapchaid]

@ForeverG5 flip, can't afford :(

[iAdamSmith]

@ForeverG5 Can we pleease have a link to your wallpaper? :)

[ForeverG5]

@iAdamSmith I don't remember where I got the wallpaper, I've had it for years. I can email it if you want but I don't have a link.

[iAdamSmith]

@ForeverG5 Yes that would be great if you could email it to me, thank you very much. :) , I've PM'd you my email.

Caitlin, I think you know how I feel about OS X Lion. ;p

[mloboshow]

Hi I was wondering if you could help me with this: I notice on this video that your facing the same little annying audio bug I'm facing when I export my Final Cut X videos, there's a little noise that snapping here and there, do you notice? What's your favorite settings to export video in FCX? I've been struggling to find a "best tutorial" about the subject. Thank you for your time and I love your vids and I'm subscribing RIGHT NOW! =)

[ForeverG5]

@mloboshow Hey bud, thanks for subscribing! I've noticed that as well and I'm still trying to work out the right Compressor settings to get rid of the clicking. As soon as I figure it out, I will be making a video tutorial; don't worry!

[mloboshow]

@ForeverG5 OH GIRL!!! You just made my day right now, I've spent like 5 hours straight trying to save in all kinds of settings and still nothing, well I'll be REEALLY waiting for this one. Thanks for replying and keep up with your awesome videos =)

[kev2427]

I would be very grateful if you could do that:).......I will PM you my Email Address.......Thank-you

[ForeverG5]

@kev2427 Sending the email now!

[kev2427]

@ForeverG5 Thanks again:)

[UltimateitemHacker]

Caught your video on TekSocial - It's great! Subbed! (Also, love the name, ForeverG5!)

[TechJohnson]

I really need to get a Mac. I feel so lost in the Tech Industry without one. :(

[ForeverG5]

@TechJohnson Wait a minute! You don't have a Mac? How did I not know this already?

[TechJohnson]

@ForeverG5 Some mysteries are better left unsaid :)

[kev2427]

Where did you get that wallpaper?

[ForeverG5]

@kev2427 I get asked this question a lot but I can't remember because I've had the image for years. If you'd like, I could email it to you.

[cart2334]

What kind of Mac do you have?

[ForeverG5]

@cart2334 I have a 13" MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo at 2.53GHz :)

[logicallytechnology]

Great video! I wish I had a better keyboard to write a legit long comment, but the only device I jave for. the next three weeks is this HTC status

[ForeverG5]

@logicallytechnology Oh that's okay! I appreciate your support and glad you could watch the video even though you only have a phone on you :)

[iTalkTechnologyy]

What's the name of the 'countdown' widget you have on your dashboard?

[ForeverG5]

@iTalkTechnologyy Hey! The countdown widget is an included widget from Apple called "Countdown Widget"! Look for it in your widget list in the Dashboard.

[iTalkTechnologyy]

@ForeverG5 I've just searched around everywhere on my widget list and it's no-where to be seen. Anywhere i could download Apple's one?

[ForeverG5]

@iTalkTechnologyy Can't seem to find it on Apple.com, unfortunately! I'm sorry, I've had it for years... I truly believe it was included with my Mac though so maybe do some Google searching.

[iTalkTechnologyy]

@ForeverG5 Is it possible to email it? I've just looked around on Google and it seems to be no-where to be seen. Just other ones that aren't as sleek or well suited. Looked on my time machine backup of SL and it's not included on that one as well.

Ps, Thanks for the quick reply!

[ForeverG5]

@iTalkTechnologyy Hey dude! I just emailed you the wallpaper in this video instead of the widget! My mistake, hahaha! I don't think you can email widgets :(

[colton101998]

Great video!

[ForeverG5]

@colton101998 Thank you! As always, I appreciate your support and friendship online :)

[rjwarda]

lol. When I went to the Apple Store, I was sort of new to Mac OS X Lion 10.7, and I outsmart the Apple guy that worked there. I new all of the touch-pad keys for some reason. 10.7 was so awesome! Tested it out on a MacBook Air 2011.

[ForeverG5]

@rjwarda First of all, the Air is amazing! I'm a HUGE fan of that product line. Second, that's an awesome story! I'm glad to hear that new users are finding it so easy to switch to the Mac these days :)

[TalesOfWar]

Update CS5! Sorry, it just bugs me seeing the update notification in the menu bar whenever it shows up for me lol.

On a somewhat related note. How long do you think it'll take them to release fixes for their crappy software that broke in Lion? And do you think the name of it will be called CS6 and weigh in at a few grand? Wouldn't be the first time Adobe has done such a great move to "fix" things.

[ForeverG5]

@TalesOfWar I'm very upset that Adobe products are having a problem in Lion, as well. It's hard to say when it will happen. I'm hoping that by October we see an update but who knows. Adobe is unpredictable these days :(

[patten08]

I use Lion the same way I used Snow Leopard. Full screen apps don't feel right on a 27" screen for me. But aside from that, I love Lion.

[ForeverG5]

@patten08 Yeah, I've been wondering how desktop users with a large screen are taking to full screen apps. I suppose I find them extremely helpful because I need to save space on a small 13" screen. Well, at least you are enjoying Lion and at least the OS only got better :)

[felix2542]

Hmm...This makes my Windows 7 custom-build look like a pig sty. I thought I was organized. Great video!

[ForeverG5]

@felix2542 Thank you and thanks for watching! No comment on Windows 7 because I find the OS to be cluttered in general :) But I'm sure an organized user such as yourself could find a work around in Windows!

[ThatTechShow]

Awesome video!

[ForeverG5]

@ThatTechShow Thanks, buddy! I appreciate your continued support!

[electrotech555]

I saw Quinn!

[ForeverG5]

@electrotech555 Woohoo! :)

[sullydude24]

I'm all over the place with any computer. Not nearly as organized. I'm still finding out cool things about Lion.

[ForeverG5]

@sullydude24 I was never this organized until Lion, surprisingly! The multi-touch gestures makes it so easy to switch through the spaces that I couldn't resist.

[FullCircleReviews]

Nice! I just started using Spaces b/c of how much easier it is to use in Lion. However, I think I have to stop making a space for every new window I have :P

[ForeverG5]

@FullCircleReviews I was very tempted to do the same thing at first: make a new space for every window! But I had to keep my RAM in mind and realize it would only slow down my computer ;) I'm happy with my setup now though because iCal and Mail are my most popular apps!

[ForeverG5]

First. Enjoy the video, everyone!

[thecreativegeek]

@ForeverG5 lol im second haha just kidding
