Searching FAQS with a Mac
« on: February 12, 2011, 01:01:21 PM »
Trying to look at the FAQS at the top of the page.  Instructions say to use Control and F.  Doesn't work with this Mac computer.

Anyone know the secret?

Wife says the "apple" is the "command" key, gave it a try and it works.

Thanks PowWow!

Tim:  If I were smarter with these dang magic boxes and could find much of anything with the Google I'd be really happy.  Usually it just adds to my rampant confusion.   :)

Thanks

You're almost there, you're smart enough to use an Apple instead of a PC, and you're here on GBO!!  ;D ;D ;D

I added a note to the FAQs for Apple users.  ;)

Thanks Tim for adding the proper keys for Mac's to the FAQS intro.  You might want to put an addendum about the key with the picture of an apple on it is the "command" key on some Mac's.  I'd have not know if SWMBO had not been here.
