The Mac frustrations begin…
So my shiny new MacBook Pro arrived today and I’ve been setting it up ever since. Since this is the first real thing I’ve done in my new “IT Quest” I figured I’d start posting some questions to all my Mac readers out there. So far here are the things that are driving me nuts. One thing to know about me, I’m a keyboard shortcut junkie.
- How do you command-tab between Finder windows? I’ve got 4 open right now and there’s no way to select them without using the mouse (I can tab between different apps and Finder but not different Finder windows).
- Tabbing through boxes and buttons is inconsistent. I’ve enabled tab for all controls in System Preferences but just now I was filling out a registration form and while I could tab between all the boxes I had to use the mouse to click the “OK” button.
- Is there any way to have Leopard auto connect network shares on boot up? Driving me nuts that I have to reconnect everything each time I boot up.
- Can you place the icons for the network drives on your desktop? Tiger worked this way, can’t find this in Leopard.
- Can you set it so Finder windows open where you closed them last? In Windows if I open an explorer window then move/resize it and close it next time I open it it’s right back where I left it.
- When an app is minimized and you tab to it is there a way to have it actually open? It’s just not very helpful to give focus to an app that I can’t actually use.
That’s my list after about 2 hours. Next post will be apps, I’m keeping a list of the apps that I need that I don’t have or know about yet. I’m welcome any and all feedback and suggestions, bring them on!
