  • Thanks for the link, that was an interesting read. I've just been watching some of the videos on Apple's site, including an online seminar about using Aperture with iPhoto, and I hadn't realised that there was such close integraton with the iApps…
  • I've been using iPhoto since I switched to a Mac a few years ago. Although it's great for organising snapshots, I'm starting to feel it's limitations. I want to start using the RAW mode on my DSLR, and although iPhoto can handle RAW files, it really…
  • Surely the details of your contract with AT&T are up to AT&T, not Apple. OK, Apple will be involved somewhere as AT&T will have a contract with them, but to blame Apple for the whole secrecy thing is a bit off when it could equally be ow…

  • Bottom, hidden, no magnification. I've got a 12" PB, so screen real estate is at a premium.

  • Quote: Originally posted by Elixir you dont need to be a .mac subscriber to use iweb right? Correct. There is an option to save the site to disk so you can upload it anywhere you want.
  • It's not automatic I'm afraid, I did it like you did, created a list and changed the entries to links. Maybe they'll add an even simpler method in the next version .
  • Here's mine . Nothing fancy, just a main page, about me, and a few photo albums. I'll probably add a few more once I've a) got more experience with iWeb, and b) thought of more stuff to actually put up there . I quite like the app. I only need to…
  • I have no idea why things are running faster now - perhaps they've fixed something on the .Mac sever side?
  • I think it only produces slideshows like that if you save the site to a folder then upload somewhere. However, if you use iWeb to upload directly to .Mac, you get more advanced slideshows. Like the ones on my web site . I'm not convinced about the r…
  • Exposure slider update: I asked the same question over at DPReview, as someone has an extensive iPhoto 06 review thread going, and here was the reply: Quote: The exposure slider means nothing to images that are JPEGS or TIFS. With these type …
  • Thanks for checking . It's not a major problem for me, as I usually tweak photos visually rather than go by the numbers, but it would be handy to have it in the common f stop terminology, partly for familiarity, and partly to help learn about exposi…
  • Quote: Originally posted by aplnub Just loaded iLife 06. Awesome. It was worth it for iPhoto alone. Could you check to see if the exposure slider on the photo adjust HUD is still calibrated on a ±100 scale, or is it done in f stops? Th…
  • Headphones that sit on top of your ears are called supra-aural, those that surround the ear are called circum-aural. Open vs closed is a completely different issue - if a headphone is open, it does not have a solid outer, so sound can get in as well…
  • Also, you can drag the AW image from iPhoto on to the PS/PSE icon, and that will open the RAW file in the Adobe RAW Converter. Unfortunately, once you have worked on the image, you will need to save it somewhere and then re-import back in to iPhoto,…
