The meeting was opened by Mark, with a total of 19 members present. We all introduced ourselves, as there were quite a few who were new to the group.

Mark then demonstrated Yep! from www.yepsoftware.com This useful programme costs $34, and searches for all the pdf files on a Mac, and identifies them in a searchable archive. It will even read a scanned in document to enable a search of words… Read more…

This months Fareham meeting kicked off with WindowsXP showing on the screen. Shock, horror... Were we at the wrong meeting, wrong date...!?! No, thankfully it was to demo a piece of new technology which is currently only available for PC use. As it was so impressive and will be made available for the Mac it was deemed suitable!

So what was this marvellous technology, it was a magical pen which when used to… Read more…

Numbers were a bit down this month but perhaps people were in the back garden sun bathing - it was certainly hot enough!

There were a few questions and answers as usual then we had a brief look at spam - how is it we get targeted and how to deal with it either using Mail's junk filter or before it gets anywhere near your Mac.

We were then treated to two impromptu… Read more…

Another good meeting with new faces - both members and visitors -and presentations by Michael Corgan on Dashboard and where to get widgets and how, and by Lionel on how to make web-site widgets giving immediate access to a web page using Safari - couldn't be easier! And finally a hilarious tour around the sky over Heathrow, thanks to Euan and his Flying Helmet of the Future. And after the main meeting almost everybody decamped to… Read more…

John opened the meeting, which was attended by 14 members.

Lionel gave a lively presentation on iTunes, which was a helpful introduction to the newcomer, and a welcome reminder to the more experienced, of the various facilities which were available to users of this established Macintosh favourite. We covered the videos and podcasts available through the iTunes shop, the Visualiser, playlists, and smart playlists, how to use iTunes tracks with iPhoto and iMovie… Read more…

We had a good attendance for the May meeting plus several "really sorry to miss this one" emails. Lots of people wanted to hear Dot's talk on genealogy. Those that attended were not disappointed! Dot is clearly no amateur when it comes to tracing family history and it showed in the level of detail she'd managed to uncover. She also used her experience to warn us of the many resources that are now… Read more…

A very good audience of 15 plus a visitor from Reading, and a most excellent presentation from Bob Campbell of onOne Software. Bob showed how many different actions , which would be complicated and/or time consuming in Photoshop, such as masking out a hairline agagainst a sky background, or, even more impresive, a net, such as a bride's veil, which could be masked whilst retaining the finest detail of the net. These plug-ins are also… Read more…

John opened the meeting, with 14 members present.

Mark provided a demonstration of iWeb, which he introduced by showing us some examples of websites which he had created. IWeb offers a variety of styles and templates to start with, and it is possible to set up an eye-catching site with no knowledge of HTML. As one would expect, there are good links to material produced using Apple's other iLife programmes, and good… Read more…

Two excellent presentation from our members at todays meeting, where time seemed to fly by... and the halls wireless internet connection worked first time! Easy internet access for us all.

We started off with a general chat about email, the various problems and potential security risks such as Google mail keeping copies of all emails sent, which generated quite a lot of discussion. Derek Wright then gave the first presentation on using Apple's… Read more…

We covered quite a lot of ground this month. The first part of the meeting was taken up with connecting us all to the internet. The school's access has to go through a proxy server so we had to learn how to use this instead of the normal "straight through" we're used to at home. Now of course, we could enter these details each time we're at the meeting then delete them when… Read more…
