[Josh92405]

I'm new to mac, i bough one recently with lion, i had no idea that the past O Systems couldn't re size a window from all four corners until i saw this demonstration 

[Megadeth6633]

@Josh92405 me too... it's a little retarded how just now they implement that. sometimes apple makes you say wtf!

[iHow3123]

[FrAgSkReX]

[RandomArrictine]

I'm only 15 yet I can already feel the gravity of sadness that Steve Jobs' death has left all of us with T_T. We miss you Steve.

[louise4053]

Excellent content/information. Very well presented. One of the best "Help" sites I've ever seen. Keep up the great work. You really help a lot of us that aren't too familiar with a Mac. Thanks again.

[DDNC2011]

Can you only use the signature capture on PDF letters?

[DDNC2011]

I tried the signature capture for preview and I was only able to get my signature copied, but not transferred to my document. Also, my annotations option button, I was not able to use .. I had to go through my preferences to find the signature option. How can I get that moved to my tool bar?

[koz1769]

I am completely new to mac's. What program did you use to type the letter, to open with finder to then add your signature ? thanks!

[JoshCx01]

what software do you use to screen capture your mac?

[zorlac01]

[sandeepsalariya]

Very nice!! Didn't know some of these ones!

[maw88ify]

[robofthewest]

Excellent tips. Thanks for sharing.

[Cybersix1980]

nice video ..thanks

[theviewerisgone]

Hey, nice videos - i just subscribed since I found them very useful.

I was trying the Signature Capture but in my Preview the pen icon is not active so it can not activate the signature key... I am kind of new with this Preview, so what i did was create a word doc, saving it and then opened in Preview... I have the Lion OS X and the Preview 5.5.1

Any suggestions? -thanks!

[piperboy350]

what kind of cam are you using?

[xoxomojo]

which is much better snow leopard or osx lion?

[jcisfabulous]

Great job bro

[sasuke0447]

[blackomega31]

Those are cool but what they did to expose. The finder and full screen with second monitors will keep me away permanent unless they fix this mess

[mattdub07]

What camera do you use? The quality is so good!

[BRENNANSTECHBITE]

@mattdub07 Canon T3i

[MsMusiclover1996]

[mbaltovski1]

[TheMasterofganja]

@mbaltovski1 I'm pretty sure it does it by default when you get Lion

[32jd32]

[jamalahmadsayeed]

[cbgc95]

@KevinTheAppleGuy Yes, he did, he said it in the 2nd sentence of the second tip Kevin!!!

[KevinTheAppleGuy]

@IloveSteveJobs1 i know hes using preview but you cantwrite a letter in preview it has to be written in a program like word or pages....

[TreehouseMovieStudio]

@KevinTheAppleGuy preview

[KevinTheAppleGuy]

@TreehouseMovieStudio you can't type things in preview!!!!

[srfdude72891]

Nice video and great tips.

Try this: When resizing windows, try holding down SHIFT, or OPTION, or BOTH while dragging/resizing your window. Cool huh?

(You can use that tip lmao. :] )

[BRENNANSTECHBITE]

@srfdude72891 Thanks man, I will give you a shout out if I use this tip in my next video : )

[lacavamiguel1]

@srfdude72891 by the way when you showthe backgrounds you drag it down and with the arrows on your key board you can change the picture :)

[pixen008]

hate that they removed the 3 finger swipe to the side to go a step back instead of pushing the arrow back =(

[GoooboopTT]

@pixen008 nah. now it's 2 fingers.

[Domsn]

thx man, the trick with the digital signature is great!

[macintosh39]

i hate the grey i want colors is it customisebel

[ZamorganMorgan]

Hey nice video and cool tricks as well, I was wondering what kind of camera did you use?

[BRENNANSTECHBITE]

@ZamorganMorgan Canon 600D

[LALOMAN18]

stuff that Windows had for years.... hehehe.... anyways one cool feature that i like a lot is that if had any web page opened or minimized to the dock and you reboot your computer, the next time you boot back your web-pages will still be there waiting as if nothing happened! Logo boot up has no more swirly spear activity just the plain apple logo so you can't really know if your computer is not booting or kernel panic... u suck Jobs! I don't seem to get into single user mode also... WTF Jobs!

[wtfVIDEOSS]

8! not 9 new effects.

[Sn0wP1ay]

I stick my apple stickers on my windows laptop

[miyagitaihei51]

[miyagitaihei51]

[electricalron]

dude, you rock! Thanks so much for sharing this video.

[bubbba94]

so mac i finally closing up on microsoft...

[LALOMAN18]

@bubbba94 hehehehe.... you nailed on the spot, now you going to have gay fanboys of Blow Jobs on your tail... Windows 7 is 100x more advanced than OS X Lion!

[jklx921]

Did anyone installed Microsoft Office after you upgraded to Lion? If it works I will definitely buy the software. I have microsoft office for Snow Leopard but I dont know if it is compatible to the Lion

[Rellikard]

@jklx921 I've installed it with no problems. One thing that was weird though, when you go to the screen to enter the product key, you'll see "XXXX-XXXXXX-XXXXXXXX-XXX-XXXX­XXXXX" or something like that and they're grayed out so it looks like you can't enter a password but if you start typing, it'll remove the X's. I don't remember them being there in Snow Leopard...

[Rellikard]

When I said enter password, I meant product key.

[gangadinio]

Keep up yhe good work!!

[abdulmajeed2bahrawi]

how can i make the 4 finger swipe to the right that shows all open application on Lion please can anyone answer i really need it

[myapplezone]

Cool tips. Thumbs Up!

[hdelaluz0]

FYI: the signature only works when the file is in pdf format. thanks for the vid.

[AppleTechHelper]

That signature thing is awesome.

[AznPr1des]

i know that you can increase the number of rows, but what if you just have too many albums?

[AznPr1des]

for the iTunes artwork part, it can't possibly show all your albums on the screen saver right? so then what if you want to listen to an album, and it's not listed on the screen saver? what do you do then?

[TX08SS]

I'm trying to use the signature, but it's not working for me. Do I use my Microsoft Word for Mac, or what. When I tried to open a document using Preview, the annotate button was dim. Please help.

[shurburs]

lol 3:13 -frog

[sanderbesems]

[BRENNANSTECHBITE]

@iAdamSmith I'm not sure if I understand your question.

[iAdamSmith]

@BRENNANSTECHBITE Lol sorry kinda confusing, basically I'm asking is it possible to disable resume for Safari

[iAdamSmith]

Awesome job, would mine posting a link to the wallpaper?

[BRENNANSTECHBITE]

@iAdamSmith YouTube doesn't let you post links in the comments, however just google imac wallpapers and click the first link. That's were I got the wallpaper and I believe its the best site to get quality apple wallpapers!
