About this Blog:
This blog is written for the beginning to intermediate Macintosh user. While there are many technical information sites, my purpose is to write clear solutions to common Macintosh problems with lots of illustrations to make it easy to follow along.
In my work as a consultant, I must keep my computer up-to-date, so illustrations and directions will be made from the latest version of the Mac OS X operating system.

Do You Know about the Control Key in iPhoto?
2009-02-10 11:11 AM
When a new version of software comes out, it is a
good time to learn about its new features. However,
it is also a great time to review features that you
may have missed or forgotten about.
This has certainly been the case with iPhoto ‘09. I really love the Faces and Places additions. I am excited by the updates to the Edit features and because I am looking through photos that I may not have viewed in a long time, I am finding photos that I want to print out, edit, and even add to my web pages.
One of the iPhoto features that many users may not be aware of is the ability to edit photos in different picture editing program simply by selecting the photo and then clicking the Edit button in the toolbar at the bottom of the iPhoto window.

I am a real fan of timelines. I frequently find
myself making them to keep track of all sorts of
things.
Right now, I have one for our family. I have recorded the dates of significant events in our lives. I find this very useful in my project of getting all of our family photos and mementos in order. Many of our early family photos have no dates on them and most are in boxes instead of albums, so as I sort new ones, I find myself adding lots of dates to my timeline. Click here to read more...

Getting Your Digtial Images to Look Like What You Saw
2008-02-21 09:07 AM
Do you share my frustration that your camera just
can't see to capture what your eye can see. Think
about that beautiful sunrise or sunset. You can see
all the detail in the foreground, but the camera
produces an image where the sky is great but the
foreground is lost in the shadows or the foreground
looks great, but the sky is all washed out.
The type of image you are visualizing has a "High Dynamic Range." While it is possible to produce HDR images with Photoshop, the $649 pricetag and the steep learning curve prevents amateur photographers from producing what they saw.
