2: Click on "File -> Export Song List"
3: Import the resulting tab-delimited text file into Excel

You will get to know your mac well, i always use Apple + W to close a window....Apple+Q to quit the program....and Apple+H to hide the whole program so its running but not visible at all.

Just have a wee look through the book, and apples help program is amazing - even compares some bits to windows, for people like yourslef and me.

cool! well I cant wait to get it, will be nice to finally get to know my way around OSX, plus is it true that OSX is more stable than windows?

Re: Getting a Mac Mini advice needed
 

about 1,000,000 times more stable

and no... i'm not exaggerating!!

Not a virus stopper, malware stopper, worm checker in site!...they are not needed...and the web broswer stops popups aswell (without downloading third party software!).

Re: Getting a Mac Mini advice needed
 

ohh at last, a computer I can use as is without adding any extras when it comes to surfing on the net! and glad its more stable as well

Just wondering how come macs generally dont need fans in them?

Re: Getting a Mac Mini advice needed
 

i think im correct in saying, they all need fans....ive even been told that before liquid cooling was introduced in powermac G5's , the G5's before had up to 9 fans :O:O...could still be the case.

Re: Getting a Mac Mini advice needed

Re: Getting a Mac Mini advice needed
 

Same place one goes in my iBook i suppose close to the processor

Re: Getting a Mac Mini advice needed

Re: Getting a Mac Mini advice needed

Photoshop Elements is highly recommended. If you don't need the latest version then try to get hold of Elements 2.0 as the CD contains both the Mac and Windows versions.

RealPlayer (go to http://www real.com/mac and click on the http://i.realone.com/assets/rn/img/8/4/4/8/7088448.gif button) is a whole lot better than the Windows version as it doesn't contain any of the bloatware.

MS Remote Desktop Client works almost identically to the Windows version and is very useful if you have any computers running XP Pro.

And always remember that Version Tracker is your friend. :)
