Does anyone know how to reference a page number in Pages? I'm making a table of contents for a user guide, and there has to be a better way to keep track of what page something is on than manually. Edit: holy poo poo I'm retarded. There is a Table of Contents under Insert. Edit 2: I take it back. There are other areas where I want to link the reader to another section [see Section 5.1, p. ###]. Is there any way to make the ### pull the page number of whatever section I'm referencing? lord funk fucked around with this message at 16:47 on Oct 8, 2011 |

If Apple is adamant about bringing some mobile paradigms over to MacOS X, I wish they'd let us click on the titlebar to scroll a window's contents to the top. I find myself wishing I could do that all the time rather than spin my mousewheel.

The titlebar is already a handle to move the window around. Of course, I'm still mad they hide the scrollbars in Lion.

Why not just hit the "Home" key? It's the top of page, and "End" is bottom of the page.

Yep, and prepare for the people who toggle those preferences to complain loudly when 10.8 sets Lion's behavior as default and removes those preferences.

KingEup posted:Is it possible to add this feature to a program like mplayerx? Theoretically yes, but I think most of the indie developers don’t want to tick off Apple by using the hack required to get Airplay running via third party apps. (apple doesn’t want third party apps to use the airplay protocol, but the private key encryption for it was reverse engineered a few months ago) http://mafipulation.org/blagoblig/2011/04/08#shairport otoh, it shouldn’t be too long until the official thing is released: http://appadvice.com/appnn/2010/11/steve-jobs-airplay-coming-safari-thirdparty-apps-2011

I'm setting up a machine for a buddy of mine. From what I can tell, he got into that whole mac antivirus scam and for whatever reason trying to remove it on his own caused this os x install to no longer boot. Anyway, so I've got Lion installed on a new drive in his old machine and I noticed that it doesn't come with JRE but its available through software update. Is this going to get him in trouble in the future when he clicks malicious poo poo on the web? I figure anything thats going to do anything bad will at least require him to put in his password right? Also, I still have his old os drive. Is there an intelligent way in Lion to copy over all of his personal files into the same respective locations including his music, playlists, ratings, etc?

Migration Assistant in Applications/Utilities might help, though you should make sure to avoid copying applications so that it doesn't pick up any nasty stuff. To keep iTunes' metadata, just copy the whole iTunes folder from inside <user>/Music.

What are the options if you completely want to restore a 2011 Mac Mini back to factory default OS (if you hork the OS and want to go back to default, or if you ge a new hard drive)? Can Lion's "Internet Recovery" reinstall the whole thing?

Can Lion's "Internet Recovery" reinstall the whole thing? Yep. If you hork just the OS, you can reinstall from the recovery partition. If you hork the whole disk, you can reinstall via the EFI (BIOS for PC refugees) downloading the recovery partition for you from the internet (even via Wi-Fi!) into RAM and then booting from it. I think Internet recovery is available in 2011 Mac Mini, Macbook Air always, and in 2011 MB Pros that have the latest firmware update applied. http://www.apple.com/macosx/recovery/ You can also stick Lion on a thumb drive, or extract the recovery partition to a thumb drive. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1433

Java will only prompt to install when you're installing something that needs Java. Java applets on the web just won't appear. Install Chrome and he'll always have a browser with an up-to-date version of Flash.

I'm deleting old backups from my external HD - the number of items deleted is in the tens of thousands in the trash dialog, but it has a negative sign in front of it. What does this mean exactly?

I was doing that yesterday, figured it had to do with the massive amounts of symlinking going on in the backup folder. It started at like 50,000 (positive) left to delete, then got down to -2,000,000 before it finished...

On Snow Leopard and earlier versions, if I shutdown my computer it'd shutdown almost immediately. But ever since moving to Lion, a lot of times the OS will just hang with the spinning indicator on a gray screen for a minute or 2 (or more.) Anybody have any else getting this? What the heck is the OS doing when all I want it do is shutdown?

Also not so bad when shutting down my 11.6 inch MBA 2010 running 10.7.1 because of SSD performance. I never wait more than 10 secs. or so before I can close my lid. Also I spergily quit my apps before shutdown.
