I tried to add ink via the two openings on top of the cartridge, but the printer does not seem to recognize that as a viable cartridge.

The rules are simple, click the note that corresponds to the blue dot on the fretboard. The bottom string corresponds to the 6th string and the upper string corresponds to the 1st string. When the 5 minute countdown is over, write down the date and your score. Do the exercice every day, and you will notice a great improvement. Don't forget to practice on a real guitar as well!

Clean-Install Assistant makes it easier to migrate third-party and personal items to a new Clean-Installed System Folder, and it may also be used to: *Save space and backup your valuable additions and preference files only, instead of the whole System Folder. *Install the same set of additions on multiple Macs. *Remove extra files and folders from your System Folder to restore it to a previous state: you can take a "snapshot" of the System Folder and have Clean-Install Assistant extract any items added since. v1.5.3 allows moving files from Mac OS 9.2.2 to a newer Mac OS version, or to/from 9.2.2 and previous versions. It is free for personal and educational use.

CopyPaste-X for Mac OS X is also available. One of the early wonders of the Mac was its revolutionary ability to do copy and paste across various applications. Unlike other areas in the Mac's system software that have changed and progressed over the years, copying and pasting has not evolved. How many times have you found yourself going back and forth copying in one application and pasting in a different application, wishing to yourself that you could copy 5-10 items at a time, then go to another application and paste each of these items? Now you can, with a vengeance! To install, drag and drop the CopyPaste application onto your active System Folder. It will tell you it wants to go into the Extension Folder. Hit OK. Restart. CopyPaste eliminates tedious, repetitive work and increases your ability to get the job done. Below is an overview of everything CopyPaste does. Donüft be overwhelmed by all the descriptions. Donüft try to understand or use everything at once. Just install it and read about the Clip Extender and the CopyPaste Palettes - then try it out a little at a time. CopyPaste will grow on you! Version 4.5 * Shows a picture preview on the palette if a picture is in the clipbord. * The default clipboard (without number) now only goes into the Clip Recorder and will not change the clipboard 0 in the Clip Extender anymore. Two reasons are: You gain one more numbered clipboard accessible via command-C-0. The program source is cleaner because I do not have to handle so many special cases whenever a clipboard is accessed. This should cause less errors. * The display of the cliboard data for the menu and palette text preview is now extracted from the clipboard in real time. It was formerly done only once at copy time and could be wrong if the copy failed due to an error. The result was an empty clipboard still showing a content title. * Most important for OS X users this version can communicate with CopyPaste-X and transfer the classic clipboard to CopyPaste-X. * Some smaller bugfixes [Archived as /info-mac/gui/copy-paste-45-jp.hqx; 748 K] ------------------------------ Date: 18 Jun 2002 From: Steve Barrett To: Subject: [*] image-sxm-168-3.hqx Image SXM is a version of the public domain image analysis software NIH Image that has been extended to handle the loading, display and analysis of scanning microscope images.

I have found 9.2 much more stable on my Titanium and am hoping for the same improvement on a machine used by my family and less under my direct control. -- Ken Laskey kenneth.j.laskey@saic.com ------------------------------ Date: Wed, 19 Jun 2002 11:19:03 -0400 From: Kimball Kramer To: digest@info-mac.org Subject: QUERY ON WORD 98 I am using Word98 under MacOS 9.0.4. I would like to activate the menu bar (at the top of the screen) using a keyboard shortcut. I seem to remember both control-tab and function key F-10 as doing this, perhaps in earlier versions, but neither seems to do anything now. Can anyone tell me how to do this? After activating the menu bar, one can use the arrow and various letter keys to select functions in the dropdown menus.
