I am happy that you are enjoying your mac and are learning new things, even though I don't post here as often as I used to.

awesome, didnt know the cmd+s4+spacebar

Thx, didn't know either.. wow and i was thinking of purchasing Scott Kelby’s “Mac OS X Tiger Killer Tips book.

I look over at apple every week for tip of the week and it's all new to me..didn't even know about cmd shift 3/4 until i read about it lol

thanks for this tip..now i can send my wallpaper in one shot!

I found an excellent conversion program called IFille (text, audio, image) that's freeware from the apple site - I desperately needed it for all my old documents from this computer crossover.

Document: TXT, RTF, RTFD, WORD, XML, HTML, ARCH
HTML to XHTML - vis versa
Image: PDF, JPEG, GIF, TIFF, BMP, PNG, PICT, PSD, JPG2

And it cleans and purges files from history and your net chache (Opera, Safari, Firefox, Camono, Mozilla, Explorer)

I downloaded it last night and Ive been plugging stuff through it all day.

Is there any way to get video screens (video screenshots) with out downloading any thing?

You can use the methods listed in the first post

I'm pretty sure it doesnt say how to record video screenshots in the first page.

A screenshot is a single picture, a shot of the screen. You a video capture program. You would need a program like SnapZPro for that, there is nothing built into the OS

ok, thats what I wanted, thanks.

Ok, i think i found a new way, you open the program called "grab" then use the file menus to take screen shots.

Thanks!

Thanks for the tip! I was just wondering about that one.

newbie here. i just did this capturing image thing. i pressed the keys then i heard the click. now my problem is i cant seem to find the file. where are they automatically saved?

Welcome to Mac-Forums and to the Mac platform, pao2pao16.

My screengrabs usually go on my desktop but am not sure if I changed the defaults or not. If you don't find the images on your desktop they could be in your Documents folder or your Pictures folder in your user account.

Check it out and let us know if you found them. Remember that the files should be in native .png file format, unless you are using Mac OS 10.3.x Panther which came natively into the .pdf file format.

screen capping?

Hi,
is there a way for me capture my screen like in windows xp, thanks

Also, hold down Control (not command) to place the image into your clipboard instead of creating a file.

Good Tip.

It's Control-Command-Shift-3.

Works great!!

Ah yeah, I was thinking the command+shift+4 (release) then hold down control.

thanks
