When you right click over an image, does it give you an option to 'copy url'?
I know it's stupid, but this is why I don't use the imac?? If not how do you...
If I can get this sorted, the iMac will be un-boxed and used !!! (it was going end up set up in the garage) Shocked

Right click on an image and you should have a "Copy Image URL" option in the popup menu

You can enable right clicking in the System Preferences

It's all about a thread hi-jack....
Thanks folks.

Yes, like that, ( I just had to ask Kate if you can right click on the mouse, because I tried before and couldn't do it)
I am a very patient person, but when it comes to computers, they wind me up in an instant if they don't do what I want!!! Hence the reason I stuck it back in it's box Laughing
Our mouse is like this...

The reason I jumped in this thread was because Kate suggested getting a Mac Pro to use with my GoPro camera as , alas, that didn't work how I wanted it to with this laptop I'm on now..(which was given to me to use after I sat on Kates iPad and it went to repair) Mr. Green

Some good tips above ^^^^ Thumbs Up

Ive never even tried one before, but everyone I know who has one, tells me to get one. So Im getting one Very Happy

Ive decided to get the new 'non-retina' version...

15" MacBook Pro 2.3GHz 4GB 500GB @£1500

http://store.apple.com/uk/browse/home/shop...pro/select

My brother works for the local university so this drops the price by about 20% and gets me Apple Care for £79 instead of £270 Thumbs Up Thumbs Up

Ive just applied for a Capital One credit card which offers 5% cashback for the first 99 days. That'll save me another £60 which I might use to pay for the One to One service, seeing as I am a complete MacBook newbie.

Yes. Just go to the Apple site from Quidco (assuming you've registered with Quidco, etc.) and then make the purchase. Peter

Well best of luck, I dug the iMac out as promised, loaded a load of GoPro footage from the days trip on the Menaii Straits and tomorrow I will edit it all in iMovie Smile

Only apple can give you that Cool

The problem with the 'right click' is...... The mouse is broke Laughing
So, a new mouse should sort it Thumbs Up

Cheers chaps, getting me inspired get the iMac out has been rewarding.
Come on WarPig...your turn Wink
