Announcements:

  • Substitute on Friday
  • Yearbook meets Next Monday at Lunchtime in Ingrid's room
Agenda:
  • WarmUp [10]
  • Mac 101 - Continued [20]
  • File NAMES and EXTENSIONS
    • There are FEW limits on what a file can be named but "/", ":" and other  special characters are usually NOT allowed
    • File EXTENSIONS tell the computer what program to use to work with that type of file
      • Big List of File Types/Extensions
      • BIGGER List of File Types
      • Top 15
        • .doc/x = Microsoft Word Document
        • .pages = Pages Document
        • .txt = Plain Text File
        • .csv = Comma Separated Values File
        • .key = Keynote Presentation
        • .vcf = vCard File - Address Book File
        • .mp3 = MP3 Audio File
        • .flv = Flash Video File
        • .m4v = iTunes Video File - SAME AS MP4
        • .mp4 = MPEG-4 Video File - SAME AS M4V
        • .mov = Apple QuickTime Movie
        • .jpg = JPEG Image
        • .png = Portable Network Graphic
        • .psd = Adobe Photoshop Document
        • .pdf = Portable Document Format File
  • KEYS & how instructions are written
    • Keys you press are written in quotes like this: "⌘"
    • If you need to press multiple keys they will have + signs like this: "control + ⌘"
    • That means you press "Control" and then while still holding "control" you also press "⌘"
      • Let's try "⌘+TAB" - what does it do?
      • Try it again "⌘+TAB" - NOW what does it do?
      • Now try "⌘+Shift+4" - what did THAT do?
      • The "Command" key on a Mac is kind of like the "Control" key on a PC.  
        • Try "Command + F" - what did it do? 
        • What does  "⌘ + P" do?
  • Discussion from Friday's reading [30]
