How to create a document on a Mac?

Q. I may have regretted buying this Apple desk top! I need to create a document. I understand it may be known at Text Edit and is in the applications folder. I have found that. But as usual it is not highlighted or bold so will not open. I am only somewhat computer literate so I us Macs for dummies. Thanks for your help.

A. "I need to create a document."
Every file is a document. You must mean a Word document.

"But as usual it is not highlighted or bold so will not open."
Do you mean you cannot even open TextEdit? Also, what does "as usual" mean? Are you not able to do anything with this computer? For that, create a new admin user.

All computers (including all Windows PCs) are sold WITHOUT Microsoft Office, unless the shop is breaking the law. They have to sell you a legitimate copy of MS Office with the original Microsoft DVD or they are pirating software.

First off, TextEdit will open Word documents. It won't do a great job of editing them. I have both iWork and Microsoft Office on my Macs. I have a long list of ways that iWork is better than Office and another list of how Office is better than iWork, so you'll have to feel it out for yourself, based on the dozens of online reviews that compare the two suites. To get a "file.DOC" from any non-Microsoft app, you have to export the file. For exasmple, in iWork's Pages app, you go to the menu bar, "Share" > "Export".

Three options:
-- MS Office (Word) 2008 (up to OS 10.6.8) or 2011.
-- iWork (Pages).
-- NeoOffice.

{NeoOffice is the direct Mac development of OpenOffice, and thus has a better interface, smaller size. Most people learn about OpenOffice from PC use, but don't know there is a better free version.}

MS Office can edit any office document. iWork Pages can edit / save any .DOC document, but can only view .DOCX documents. NeoOffice can edit / save any office document. Both Pages and NeoOffice can export original or edited documents as .DOC. NeoOffice can also export as .DOCX.

Ease of use:
-- Word: 8.5
-- Pages: 9.5
-- NeoOffice: 6.5

Cost:
-- MS Office 2011: US$100-150 (reduced from previous versions from competition with iWork)
-- iWork: $79 (DVD purchase at store.apple.com) / Pages $20 (download through App Store.app)
-- NeoOffice: free

How can you access a computer using a ip address?
Q. Is there a simple program for mac or windows that i can enter my home ip address and get access to view the computer? I am not looking for logmein or sharemypc but a program where you just enter the ip address.

A. Yes, actually there's a program called Netbus 1.7 or Netbus pro
1.7 is for noobs it was everything on it lol ill tell you the features on it

you can talk to the hose
screen dump(spy on em)
listen(keylogg em)

here ill give you the link for Netbus pro and 1.7!

oh by the way, you need a router

None of them are viruses

trust me you can even scan the software
but yes it is a trojan it does not harm your pc its just like remote desk top on your computer but much much more features!

ENJOY!

What problems do I face upgrading to Windows 7 from Vista XP?
Q. what conflicts can I expect with software, hardware, etc? just want to prepare myself because I know this isn't going to be a piece of cake!

A. 1) Windows 7 still has all the security of a drunken teenager in a sports car. From Windows for Workgroups and NT 3 until today, Windows is a security joke. It used to be that running Windows just put your head into the noose. Now, millions of lazy Windows users are the reason why the Internet is a mess. If you already do all the right things to keep XP running safely, you're not going to get any safer by buying Windows 7.

2) Windows 7, no matter how you buy it, is expensive. Does your budget have the extra cash to buy a new and improved taskbar!?

3) Upgrading from XP to Windows 7 will require that you do a clean install. That means everything on your hard disk gets vaporized during the 'upgrade." Vista users have it easier. So long as they're moving from equivalent version to equivalent version or to Windows 7 Ultimate they can update without needing to rebuild their systems.

There are lots of ways, like Microsoft's own Windows Easy Transfer and I'm sure there will be many more, to migrate your data from your old system to your new one, but all of them take work. If you have a business with dozens to tens-of-thousands of Windows PCs you can count on a honking, huge upgrade bill.

4) Did you notice what I didn't say above? I didn't mention transferring your old programs and device drivers from XP to Windows 7. For that, Easy Transfer and most of the first generation of migration programs are of no help at all. You'll need to reinstall your old programs and device drivers. Then, you'll need to update all those programs and drivers. Doesn't that sound like fun? Doesn't that sound like hour after hour per PC of migration work?

5) XP already works. I can tell you chapter and verse on why you'd be better off running desktop Linux or put a Mac on your desk. Most of you though are happy running XP. If that's you, I'll be darned if I can think of a single, significant change that you'll get from running Windows 7 instead of XP.
