By the way, all is very well on the Mac front. Wanted to write some reports but never made time. Maybe more on that later ... :-)

Suddenly I just get a beep when pressing any key on the keyboard. Can't input text or log in. Force restart only option????

@jamesvandyne Ahh. That's it. Tools -> Adjust Size ... Knew it had to be in there somewhere. Would be nice to have Icons for the same thing
@pukupi Thanks. Crop doesn't work if you just want to make the image smaller, but thanks for the tip on exporting. Not so user friendly.
@macandrewme Downloading Picasa. Also no Resize Option. Uploaded to Flickr and edited there. What a pain.
I mistakenly did some weird key/mousepad combination when highlighting that brought up a 'People Actions' pop-up. Any idea what and how?
Long time no Tweet. All is going well. I'm getting used to the keyboard shortcuts. Still things to learn. Got a question though ....

@pukupi I've got a nifty little extension arm that does the job but it's one more gadget to carry around :-)
Minor grumble. Wish the USB ports were further apart to allow for larger sized items. (DoCoMo's USB modem is the current offender)
RT @pukupi:@macandrewme Ctrl + Alt + Del = Command + Option + Esc -> Thanks. Another tool in my toolbox.

Had my first Mac partial hang yesterday. Two apps were chewing the processor. What's the equivalent of Ctrl+Alt+Del? I couldn't do anything

It's been around 10 days since the switch and today is the first time I've missed out on 'not-yet-for'Mac' software www.procaster.com

@lstaples That right-click dock icons is a great tip. Solves an issue I had with Seesmic Desktop not displaying with a simple left click.
@lstaples Thanks. I think I'm going to have to drop by the Mac store some time to get up to speed on Expose and Spaces.

Skype on Mac is driving me crazy. I can't navigate the open Windows. I'm in a call but can't find how to get to it. A little Windows lust.
@papadimitriou Thanks. Will try it out. Pixelpipe seems to be a killer service for uploading media.
@samuraicoder Thanks. Useful list. I also recommend www.wakoopa.com for tracking and sharing what apps you are using.

@nambucom Wow. I had some oddities this morning and thought it was me. Thanks for spreading the word.

Had problems with my DoCoMo USB data card which was annoying but am happy I managed to troubleshoot on my on. The force is with me.
@pukupi Thanks. Disk Utility tells me the USB NTFS. Problem identified. Luckily I can copy off the data and format.
@pukupi Realized there was a problem with the drive after saving to desktop first. I'm thought I used the same drive earlier in the day.
@pukupi Worst thing was I was trying to DL file direct to the USB drive and wasn't getting any error. It just wasn't working.
@pukupi Thanks for the tip. I didn't do anything special to the USB drive but I'll have to investigate.

@pukupi For some reason I couldn't copy files to a USB drive. Another USB works. Murphy's law before giving a presentation!
HELP. First BIG Mac newbie frustrations. Forgot projector adapter. Can't download file for some unknown reason. Aaaaahhh!
