[ZiGGyMaidEN]

hey man :) great stuff

could you probably make a video of how to use the voice command system?

I can't really get it to work that well .. It always takes me a lot of tries until the command i send gets through ..

Any ideas? :)

[floriandubois]

I don't find mi cmnd button in my Toshiba !

[jkane94]

Open up terminal. (Search it in your spotlight command+space bar) Now copy and paste this on and press enter.

/System/Library/Frameworks/Scr­eenSaver.framework/Resources/S­creenSaverEngine.app/Contents/­MacOS/ScreenSaverEngine -background

This should put your screensaver as your wallpaper. Pretty cool. THUMBS UP.

[DarkRoxas36o]

@jkane94 or download wallsaver.

[mordenm1]

[oldspam]

Cool I give you 4 apples 

[signupsigma]

what antivirus do you use. And what do you use the mac for? Why not PC?

[Piff146]

@signupsigma Mac is easier to use, better, no need for antivirus unless you use Windows as an alternate OS or illegally download iWorks, and is simply more in depth than Microsoft who releases their products before they even work out half the bugs they have and dumping the product completely. :)

why are your titlebar buttons screwed up??? the green ones to maximize and the yellow ones to minimize...i see this alot but how do you do it???

[johnathon124]

@xXmatt69Xx1 What are you saying ? The Titlebar buttons are in the right spot, you stated the the functions of 2 of them... what is it youre asking ?

[xXmatt69Xx1]

@johnathon124 stop the video at 1:18 and when e hovers the mouse over the yellow title bar button it looks like hes hovering it over all of the buttons...in other words the

x + - showed up when it was supposed to only show the +

[johnathon124]

@xXmatt69Xx1 Oh That? Well i dont know about earlier Macs, but in Leopard and Snow Leopard, all three show up when you hover the mouse over the buttons.

[Dadg2104]

[TheBrutal229]

@MacSupportApple Oops Sorry man lol i clickd backspace and i guess i took me back one page cause I commentd wrong vid

[ChrisKHensley]

@MacSupportApple You just called him a nub. Haha. Video Game Nerds!!!!

[EverythingTech96]

For getting widgets on your desktop, you can just type "defaults write com.apple.dashboard devmode YES" and then "killall Dock". It will do the same thing without downloading OnyX. Do the same thing with NO instead to undo.

[MAChelp32]

how do you get the letters on your screen?

[Bigbonze]

I am brand new to owning and using a Mac. I just bought this fantastic 17" Macbook Pro and it is incredible. But, I have used Windows machines all the time and am having to learn the Mac OS. You really helped. Great job, keep up the fantastic work and make lots more of these great videos.

[VictoriaZues]

lol im a pc and I tried the Ctrl + thing and it makes my pixels get bigger, however I cannot actually see the red green and blue colors, but everything I can zoom up to like x800

I can't understand it either Windows vista even comes with free Bluescreen.

Also u can't even copy a file with out telling ure pc 5 times to really really copy it and that ure sure its not a virus.

[fataldesain]

can somebody tell me why people actually buy mac computers, ever since they went intel I really don't see the point.

I'm running this vmware and it's pretty fast. I just don't know why I would want to use this over windows. As a pretty hardcore user I just don't see how a mac is worth the money.

[omgitsmonikuh]

@fataldesain it's more of, "why wouldn't you choose a mac?" they run faster, are more efficient, don't get viruses and look way better. but hey, that's just my opinion.

[MrSmileyThe]

@fataldesain i own a mac my own, do you? If you do, i am sure you will find out why it is so popular.

[Iknowbetterthanthat]

How do you get those spaces in your dock?

[simenerkul3456]

how to do set up a key to go to your widgets im new to a mac

[poomuncher5000]

theres already a key it looks like a gauge for a car or something. top left 5th key in.

[Iknowbetterthanthat]

@xFA1LUREx211

Its very easy, you dont need to set a key for that.

press the f4 button, and the dashboard will open.

And if you want to use the f1 f2 f3 etc, you need to press the function (Fn) key simultaneously.

Hey, you can do the dashboard thing without a program. just enter this into terminal...

defaults write com.apple.dashboard devmode YES

then log out and back in. go to dashboard, click and drag around a widget. while still holding it, press and hold F12 and then get out of dashboard to move it to the desktop.

[yoshikartegg]

[krad1313]

go to your system pref. (the apple at the top left) go to speech in the systems section. click the "text to speech" and go from there, i set mine up so that i hit (apple+Q) and it reads whatever i want it to do.

[gabuskom]

[DevilDog970]

[nfan12]

How do you get the effect at the edge where your HD's are and to put it like that?

[DNice1702]

I'm not sure I understand your questions. Could you please rephrase/reword it?

[nfan12]

Like they are small and they are lined up under each other....

[YomorokaXD]

hay, i just switched from windows to mac, had i love everything but the bar at the top... is there any way to make it like the task bar in windows?

you know to i could see the windows im running instead of the finder stuff...

[DNice1702]

Not that I know of. I'm sure you could do some major hacking, but this is the way Mac OS X is. Give it a while, I'm sure you'll get used to it.

[chessdude67]

Very helpful for a rookie Mac user like myself.

Thank you.

[DNice1702]

No problem. Thanks for watching!
