I often use apple I to have basic information on a file. it's like the "right click - properties" under windows.

other keys i often use are F5 and F6, that I assigned to exposé". I don't know how it's called in english but you know, this is the application that allows you to see all open files/applications at the same time and that also allow you to see your desktop by removing all open windows...

i turned of that mighty mouse squeeze... i t was driving me nuts... my thumb and 3rd finger sit exactly on the buttons and those buttons are feather touch tastic!!

i just use the F3 expose button now.


alt - cmd - U in InDesign is a well used shortcut of mine. (step & repeat)

also F7 right up to F12 are good... as they control my iTunes player:)

ok. I had forgotten this mouse.. I use a laptop and I don't need a mouse.
you're right about the F7 to F12 keys... very useful for iTunes

I'd beg to differ

I've had to clean my scroll wheel many times

and 2 days later it still fucks up

worst design by Apple.. functionality is top notch besides the scroll wheel

send it back or something... we have 6 new iMacs in our office and not one has jammed or needed cleaned... or maybe we dont use them often enough

or maybe you should wash your hands
