Mac Tips for New Users

Mac OS used in this demo - 10.5.2.

#1 Spaces - Press F8 to launch Spaces or click on the Dock icon. Press the CTRL key and the 1-4 key to switch directly to a space. Or press the CTRL key and the Arrow keys to navigate between them. ALSO, clicking on an active program will take you to the SPACE that the program is in. You can also move programs between workspaces by dragging them to a new space.

#2 Shortcuts - Hold the APPLE Key and the appropriate key to activate.

APPLE + C = Copy
APPLE + V = Paste
APPLE + X = CUT
APPLE + B = Bold
APPLE + I = Italics
APPLE + U = Underline
APPLE + Delete (backspace) = Move to trash

APPLE + SHIFT + Detete (backspace) = Empty trash.

#3 "Right Click" - Hold the CTRL key when clicking to bring up the "right click" menus. Or if using a touchpad, place two fingers on the pad and press the button.

Is there a way to maximize the size of a window such as a web browser or microsoft word?

[qiranger]

the + area will usually expand that way (green circle).

It's an effect in the Webcam application in Photobooth. Photobooth is built in to every Mac with a webcam. You just have to go to the effects and look for it.
