How to Change Trackpad Settings on Mac (5 Steps)


Open your computer's System Preferences by clicking the icon on the dock.
Select 'Trackpad,' which is located under the 'Hardware' heading.
Use the slider on the left side of the menu to adjust the mouse's tracking speed. This dictates how responsive your mouse is to movement on the trackpad.
Choose which gestures you would like to enable on the left side of the screen. Gestures are like short cuts that allow you to easily perform more complex functions using only your trackpad.
Adjust the sliders on the right to change the gesture settings.

How to Set Up an iSight Camera With iGlasses


Download and install iGlasses (see link in Resources below). During the installation you can choose which applications you want to use iGlasses with. Select iChat and any other applications you may use with the iSight built-in Camera. When you launch iChat, the iGlasses application will automatically open. You can select the iGlasses control panel under the iChat VIDEO tab.
Select standard or another preset mode to work on. Explore the presets. You can choose bright, extra bright, sepia and many other presets and adjust them to your preference and lighting, then select the area you want to adjust. You can adjust exposure, color and many other image characteristics.
Most of us use our cameras from our work or home office, which usually has mixed low-level lighting. The image was too dark so I selected the super bright exposure. Now the image is perhaps too light, but I can easily adjust it with the slider. This enables you to have iChat conversations where everyone can actually see one another.
You can also zoom, pan and rotate the camera. This helps eliminate distractions during iChat conversations. No more dogs and cats walking in the background. It forces your iChat attendees to focus on you instead of what is moving in the background. This is especially useful for business conversations and training courses.
The iGlasses application has a lot of settings and adjustments. You can adjust the white balance, hue, shadows, saturation and much more. Experiment with all the settings. Once you have the settings the way you want them, SAVE them as a CUSTOM PRESET. Next time you open IChat, just select your saved preset and you are ready to go.

How to install Windows 7 on a Mac Pro (6 Steps)


Update Bootcamp to at least version 3.1. Previous versions do not support Windows 7. You can download the required update from Apple's support website.
Open Bootcamp through 'Finder.' Go to 'Applications,' 'Utilities' and click on the program to open it.
Create a partition for Windows. You can use the default settings or adjust the size to your liking. You must have enough free space on your current hard drive to create a new partition.
Insert the Windows 7 installation disc when the partitioning is complete and click 'Start Installation' to proceed. Your machine restarts.
Select the new partition you created when the Windows 7 installation process is done loading. Choose the format option near the lower right-hand corner of the screen. The partition must be formatted before Windows can be installed. Be careful not to format any other partition or data will be lost. Click 'OK' to confirm the formatting and the Windows 7 installation process will begin.
Follow the instructions on the screen to continue the process. Your computer reboots after some time. Upon reboot, Windows 7 will load and you will be asked to set several settings such as language and keyboard layout. After the settings are chosen, installation is complete and the Windows desktop will appear. Your Mac will now load Windows 7 by default after every restart.
