Hi there… I found your website from one of your youtube videos–I was trying to find help on mail merges by using the mac address book and watched your video on printing envelopes. Thank you for the help!

Ah, great observation and also a good idea for a tutorial. You can turn the OS X hard drive icons on and off the desktop through the Finder preferences. Click the Finder menu, select preferences. Then, on the General preferences tab you can enable disable desktop drive icons.

Hope that helped! If you like the site please bookmark, tweet about it

Very nice summary, thank you. I have had my 27″ i7 iMac for about a month now and I am still trying to wash off the 12-year PC stench. LOL it’s not that bad, I still use some of my XP/Vista stuff through Parallels (great program, by the way), but Mac rocks! Great for music production and anything multimedia. The only thing I found puzzling is that my desktop contains no Mac HD icon like your description mentions. Weird…

Great! I am new to this whole Apple thing, and have been a PC guy forever, so thanks for the helpful information. PC’s and Apple’s are really different I am taking, and it looks like I’ll need all the info I can to be successful with my new computer. Thanks for posting.

Comment on Use iTunes With Other Devices by Technology Blogged

Apple does a good job at creating product lines that are compatible with one another – however I have never heard of anybody owning a Mac and a non Apple Mp3 player such as Creative.

I have an iPod touch and love it, but don’t use a Mac. What Apple are trying to do is if you own an iPod then you should get a Mac. . The iPod ‘just works’ and so does the Mac.

uTorrent is a decent client. I used in when I was on Windows. I’ll have to check it out on the Mac. Thanks for the tip.
