Oh my.

What technique wound up working?

AnnieDreams · Post by **AnnieDreams** » 3/13/2009, 4:50 pm

ctrl + shift.

yay my suggestion!

everywhere on the internet seems to say alt+shift will change it for vista...which so doesn't work.

however, ctrl + shift works beautifully, which landon's mom suggested doing when i couldn't get my keyboard off the french setting...and they only have macs. and i have a pc. but it works!

Odd

I setup French as a 2nd language on my Vista system.

Alt + Shift changes my EN to an FR
Ctrl + Shift ... nothing

Ah well whatever works

It seems like there should be more keys involved to switch your keyboard's language. That's way too easy to do accidentally.

i tend to rest the side of my left hand on the left hand side of my laptop between typing, and end up magically hitting ctrl+shift, resulting in french symbols. it is immensely frustrating.

I always hold down the shift key while thinking about my next sentance resulting in that damn stickykeys window comming up.

It's true. She doesn't have a wine-list on her back or anything.

How do YOU know?!?

AnnieDreams · Post by **AnnieDreams** » 3/17/2009, 5:41 pm

Well, if you do, you haven't been very good about showing it to everyone.
That's some pretty stupid menu-ing.

Hmm, I can't deny that. :think:

Question:

Currently I share my computer with my brother. He has his own iTunes account and so do I. However, it still has our libraries as one. I've been trying to find out if there is any way to separate our libraries so that I don't have to pick out specific songs or create a playlist everytime I want to add something to my iPod, and the same for him. I haven't found anything that gets specific on how to do it though. Can anyone help?

Kicker774 · Post by **Kicker774** » 3/19/2009, 8:22 pm

<< Knows nothing about iTunes

However ...
Do you both log onto the same Windows account?
Perhaps if you created a new XP (or Vista or whatever) profile then re-installed iTunes in that profile (And a different directory)

That way what gets uploaded by you stays in your directory.

..... Although I think there should be a much better anwer than that.

Hmm... That might work. Thanks, I'll keep that in mind.

sandnippy (8:13:03 PM): apparently you're available :O
so i shall try asking you since im trying to figure out the name of a software that i used about 50 billion years ago but cant recall the name of and i figure you may know or at least know someone who possibly does so here it goes:
the software i need basically runs a remote access - vpn through a lan so one can control the mouse/keyboard/etc of the client pc through the network after signing in and all that.. its a 2 part deal, 1 comp is the client and the other the server.. the one i used in the past was freeware or something like that and was great but its name escapes me as i said.. any help?! :O
