[QUOTE="The.Gab, post: 990445, member: 140114"] [I]If you do the Erase and Install be warned that if you now have Ilife installed, it will not be there as iLife only comes on the original DVD that came with that Mac. Do you have the Original install DVD's that came with the Macbook? If so you can later install iLife back. I just wanted to warn you though just in case.[/I] Yeah, I have both SL upgrade disk and Leopard install disk, so I can reinstall iLife. However, I'm not sure I want to do that. I already use Corel VideoStudio for video editing and it is installed on my gaming computer which is a beast and runs it very fast. I might give iMovie a try, but I doubt I'll switch over because Corel already have all the features I'm looking for and there is also a certain amount of effort to spend to learn a new environment. Same with iPhoto. I already know how to use photoshop. As for iDVD, GarageBand and iWeb, I don't do those things, so... Slydude, I probably won't move my apps anyway. Old Windows habits. By the way, is there no delete key on this Mac keyboard even though it is a French keyboard? P.S. I asked this in another post, but it was still unanswered after a day or two. How do I control the text to speech feature in PDF files? I simply want to be able to have the reader start at a specific location in the document instead of the beginning. Also, it would be nice if it could highlight the word or sentence it is reading right now. I find that I remember stuff better if I both read and listen to it. [/QUOTE]
