- TUAW Tip: QuickTime playback shortcuts
Filed under: TUAW Tips
This morning, I received a desperate letter from a person to remain nameless. "Quick!" it said, "Tell me a keyboard shortcut to mark IN on the timeline in QT Pro from where the playhead is parked. Having to twiddle those stupid triangles is frustrating beyond measure." Well, secret correspondent who shall be henceforth known as "V", here is a quick reference for you. I threw this together in short order, so if anyone has additional playback shortcuts they want to throw into the mix, please do so. If you've got a long commute, why not download Apple's QuickTime 7 Guide (pdf) and go straight to the source?
Space bar. Pause/play.
Right-Arrow. Move one frame forward in time.
Left-Arrow. Move one frame back in time.
Up-Arrow. Increase volume.
Down-Arrow. Decrease volume.
Command-A. Select the entire track.
Command-B. Select nothing. This has the very useful side effect of moving the selection triangles to the current location of the playhead.
Shift-Left Arrow. Move the left selection triangle to the playhead.
Shift-Right Arrow. Move the right selection triangle to the playhead.
Command-Left Arrow. Play in reverse.
Command-Right Arrow. Play.
Option-Left Arrow. Move left to the next selection triangle, or if there is none to the start of the movie.
Option-Right Arrow. Move right to the next selection triangle, or if there is none to the end of the movie.
Command-T. Play selection only.
Command-L. Loop playback.

Filed under: Accessories, Humor, Cult of Mac, Odds and ends, Steve Jobs
There is one thing about geeks of all stripes, they like t-shirts. I should know, since I'm a geek myself! Two t-shirts that caught my eye recently would make fun gifts for the Mac geek in your life. Our friends at MacMerc whipped up this 'Worst. Keynote. Ever!' shirt that is sure to put a smile on the most cynical of your Mac friends. It can be yours for $17.90.
On the other side of the spectrum we have this 'Steve Jobs for President' tee from the folks at Insanely Great Tees. If Steve were President the trains might not run on time, but they would sure look pretty. This shirt sells for $17.

Filed under: iPhone
TalkiPhone has posted their 101-question-long iPhone FAQ. The FAQ, which runs the gamut from "Are AT&T stores really going to open at 6PM on June 29th" to "Will the iPhone support Adobe PDF documents?" collects information from around the Internet and combines it into a single easy-to-search document. The FAQ is clearly a work in progress and some of their answers differ from what I have been led to understand, so take the information there with a wee grain of salt. You can always review our iPhone posts for more tidbits on the greatest gadget since the sliced-bread slicer.

Filed under: Software, Internet Tools
Every heavy user of Safari I spoke to said the same thing about the Safari 3 beta, 'it is great, but I sure do miss Saft.' Saft, for those who don't know, is a great Safari add on that enables lots of new features for the browser including:
- Full screen mode
- Smart URL completion
- Growl support
Saft costs $6.

Filed under: Odds and ends
Eagle-eyed TUAW reader Scott Reeves tipped us off to the newly updated Safari 3 icon. The icon, which appears here on the left, seems to have lost its degree notches that are quite prominent along the bottom right of the Safari 2 icon. In addition, the background map is far clearer with improved contrast, while the shininess of the "glass" has been played down a bit. The circles around each letter also appear larger. What other changes can you notice? Let us know in the comments.
Thanks ScottКомментарии к сообщению:

Leopard Unix is getting an upgrade. According to Apple, Leopard UNIX will be an Open Brand UNIX 03 Registered Product, conforming to SUSv3 and POSIX 1003.1 specifications. That means the next generation of OS X will be fully leaded UNIX without any odd dialectical quirkiness. Sure, you'll still have access to some great Mac OS X-only command-line utilities, but UNIX itself will be fully certified.
To take advantage of that newly updated UNIX command line, Leopard's new Terminal 2 (for some reason I keep thinking of Arnold Schwartzenegger when I see that new name) offers an updated interface, with tabbed sessions and a completely overhauled inspector and settings pane. I have a deep attachment to the current incarnation of Terminal and I hope the new version will be as pleasant to use.

Filed under: Software, WWDC, Widget Watch, TUAW Interview
Monkey Business Labs, makers of the fine TV Tracker and Package Tracker widgets show us what's new in their bag of widget tricks... Like a sneak peek at Package Tracker 3. If you thought version 2 was cool, stick around for the ending because version 3 will knock your socks off. We like it, can you tell?
Also, by popular demand, we've switched these to the .mov format, but you can visit our Blip.tv channel for a mostly stutter-free .flv version if you like.
UPDATE: Apparently Blip.tv likes to play games! Despite embedding the .mov code, we're still getting the Flash version-- so you can go here for the .mov until Adobe figures out how to optimize Flash for OS X.Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:

Filed under: Apple Corporate, Apple Professional, Apple
The Economist has published an article that explores some of the lessons other companies can learn from Apple's journey through the industry, as well as it's unique practices towards product design and customer relations. Specifically, the article outlines four lessons other companies should take notes on, including the fact that some of Apple's innovation comes both from without and within, highlighting the fact that some of its strongest products like Mac OS X and the iPod are either built on the foundation from open source (Mac OS X's BSD Unix core), or originally conceived by an outside consultant (like the iPod). Another great lesson the article mentions is an ability to not listen to customers or the market when one's instincts say otherwise. Both the iPod and Nintendo's Wii are cited here: while the iPod was originally criticized for being too expensive of a gadget, the market has clearly spoken otherwise. In the case of Nintendo's wildly successful Wii, the company was criticized for betting on a portion of the market that was more or less completely ignored by the other video game manufacturers: non-gamers who haven't picked up a console yet.
It's a good read that takes a realistic approach while spotlighting some of the lessons that companies can learn from Apple's wild success in recent years.

Filed under: Software, WWDC, TUAW Interview
Pat Lee was kind enough to join us in TUAW's mobile lab (aka the Marriott) and give us a whirlwind tour of VMware's latest and greatest Fusion offering. While Parallels was first out the door with a virtualization app, VMware has been in the business for a long time, and they've put that expertise to use in developing some very robust, Mac-like features for this latest offering.Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsКомментарии к сообщению:
