[QUOTE="yakkotofu, post: 972676, member: 138290"] Dear all, I am a new MacBook user who has come on-board thinking that this will put an end to my Tech frustrations. Contrary to my beliefs, I have been pretty disappointed by the lack of support and help in my switching, hence I have found my way here hoping I will get some kind help. 1. Picture editing On windows, I used to use Adobe Photoshop or just normal paint to edit photos, ie cut a part of this photo to put on that photo, and click on that background button to remove the background. Is there anywhere on Mac I can do this and not have to spend a fortune on some programme? 2. Bit Torrent I have tried to use Vuze and are not able to even search for videos, let alone download. is there anything I am doing wrong? Is there some firewall or what setting that I am not configurating properly? 3. Iphone I am not able to copy photos freely to my Iphone from Mac. This is a bit of a pain as I had thought it will be a seamless operation since both are Apple products. 4. Video with WMV. I got this message saying its not able to play DRM protected content. I was like pretty frustrated already since I have not been able to do anything I used to be able to do on my PC To make this worse, Apple came up with a new Macbook which is sleek like MBP one week after I bought my Macbook. Feel ripped off and disgruntled but trying to make best out of this. Hope to get some help here.. Thanks a lot! Yakkotofu:[ [/QUOTE]
