Re: Getting rid of Junk in Mai

Bev, my post was to the group, not aimed at you.? Yes, your post that was quoted triggered some of my response, but so did Randy¡¯s post which mentioned a keyboard from Canada and a Windows or cross platform keyboard, and so did the posts talking about the keyboards in GB. But that was a tiny sampling of GB keyboards, it appears. I don¡¯t remember which group I posted my whine to, MacSupportCentral, IOMUG, AllApple or AppleiPhone, since so many of us are on several. It was nothing more than a whine, an unsolvable complaint. I don¡¯t use a password manager app, that will save or enter passwords automatically, by personal choice. So on the few that I try to remember I reliy a lot on muscle memory. Most of the commonly allowed special characters are on the number line. Look at those on your Mac¡¯s keyboard and then on your iPhone. They are not in the same position. So it boils down to hunt and peck, rather than touch or muscle memory.? The point remains, there is no universal standard for ?keyboards. Many are based on QWERTY, but why do number pads or ?calculators have the one on the bottom, but ?phone keypads have ?one on the top row? Each row of number increases as you go to the right, but why not consistently as you travel vertically, either up or down? An unsolvable complaint, a whine! And Alt isn¡¯t even used in Apple¡¯s world.? Brent ?

Please don¡¯t take this wrong, as I am neither upset nor angry. ?You mentioned that you posted about the physical vs onscreen keyboard differences in a different forum, so I¡¯m not sure why that was pointed at me. ?I try to help in this forum as much as I can. ?I¡¯m very far from knowing everything, and sometimes I can¡¯t find anything in spite of extensive online searches. ?Sometimes life is just too busy. ?In those circumstances I don¡¯t reply. ?
