thx guys, they both work Fn + backspace and the command + backspace
i'm a ex-windows user, so the command + tab key to switch apps is like second nature to me, i didn't even stop to think that this was something mac users did not have
but the command + ` combo doesn't work here
i looked it up in the help file, and it's in there to, but it does noet work, in safari anyway (OS 10.3)
there is a program called fn swithc, which allows you to set your f-keys to work as f-keys and not your short cutts for volume and screen brightness....
Hello. Thanks for the reply. I have looked all over the place for any program along this line, at least wtih swithc and switch in it, and couldn't find anything. I also looked for function, etc.
the fn switch program should be on apples update website I think...my friend linked it to me...but I don't remember where I got it....I could IM it to you if you want it....I think I still have it....

I wish I could IM on my Mac. For some reason, I can not get the IM to work. It says that I am not connected...but I am writing this?!?!?! I haven't had time to do muych research it. How big is the file?
do you have iChat? and it's not working?...I don't know what to say....other than mess around with the preferences maybe....
Well, I did get IM to work...it turns out that the version on the Mac Office X disk is 3.0...and it doesn't work with 10,3, I guess. When installed 3.5, IM now works.
As far as sending the file, can you send it to: gloker @ beaumont.k12.tx.us? (Please remove the spaces in that email address.)

When typing text in text editor, this here quick reply box, etc type the first few letters of a word then press F5 to see possible matches!
Handy if you are not too sure on the spelling of something.
does anyone know of a way to bind this "sideways-K" key (sorry, am too young on mac) to "forward delete"? That would seriously rock my world! I never use it for anything but forward delete is something I am missing. It's got the perfect position for something like that, too (At least on this Powerbook it does) - Forward delete on one button right besides the cursor keys? Yum! Yum!
I know some cool keyboard shortcus for taking screenshots.
besides the regular old shift+command+3 = entire screen shot
theres also:
shift+command+4, crosshairs come up, then drag to select area of screen to be captured,
shift+command+4 then tap space bar= a camera comes up, place over any window to capture the window, window when selected turns blue as in expose.
enjoy :mac:
