operating system. You may have to uninstall
what is there now, before installing the new
version. Apple changed things for scanners
with Mac OS .. A large number of printer and
scanner drivers required updates. (Some models
were left behind and not updated. Anybody
got an old UMAX or Microtek scanner?) Pretty
much .% of any hardware you might find, the
software that came with it on a disc, is out of
date and needs a update. The Software Update...
you find in the Apple menu is only good for
updating your Apple software. The third party
software like Microsoft, Adobe, Epson, HP, you
name it, all need to be updated separately. Even
firmware updates for your cable/DSL router or
your fancy printer come out every so often. You
know there have been dozens of iPod updaters,
right? Do you think anyone got it right the first
time? There is a reason the current Mac OS is
version .., because there were problems with
.., and still more with .., etc., up to ..
itself. There will be a .. update. When in
doubt, go to www.versiontacker.com/macosx/ to
see if there is a software update for something
you use. You won’t find every firmware update
there, too, but some are listed. I remember
calling a friend who had just ordered some new
software but he hadn’t received it yet. After
checking Versiontracker, I told him, while
you’re waiting, download the update for it, it
fixes a serious problem. Updaters can be tricky,
too. Some are very incremental, like FileMaker
Pro .v updater won’t update the original
release from the CD, version .v. You have to
first download the .v updater, install that
before the .v can find a valid application to
update. More and more programs check for
an update for themselves when they launch,
but many require you to select from a menu
to check for updates now. Some, like Adobe
Creative Suite, can check for updates across
most of the suite, but you have to check Adobe
Acrobat Pro separately.

You’ve mentioned turning o Epson
printers when not in use to avoid clogging.
Old and new models? I heard you can’t tell
how much ink is left in the Epson printers.
That’s generally not true. Any Epson printer
that has a Mac OS X driver installed, will install
the Epson Printer Utility. With that you can
check the ink levels. Now, on the other hand,
if your printer relies on Gutenprint, formerly
known as gimp-print, then there is no Mac OS
X native way to check your ink levels. This can
be the case with a very old printer. I’ve got a
client who finally moved from Mac OS to OS
X and with Gutenprint , I basically got her old
Epson Stylus Photo EX (via USB adapter) to
work, but the software controls were very dif-
ferent and she could not control the printer like
she used to, so eventually gave in to my advise
and bought a newer model that was supported
by Mac OS X, the Stylus R. Of course she is
much happier with the new printer. Software
aside, the new printer has a much finer dot pat-
tern, is faster and prints far better, plus it prints
on inkjet printable CDs. Sometimes you just
have to let go. Anyway, back to the clogging
issue, both new and old models are subject to
clogging if you don’t turn them off to allow the
printer to cap the inks. Also if you don’t use the
printer often, they can clog anyway. The Canon
and HP printers use a thermal print head, so its
always squirting hot ink through the print head
which avoids clogging. In some units, the print
heads are separate from the ink tanks altogether,
which is best for servicing. I’d avoid HP all-in-
one printers, as their software is a major pain. 0
Tip for magazine and
newspaper editors
in Adobe InDesign
CS2:
If you’re working
on a magazine or
newspaper, you’re
working with writers;
and chances are
you’re in charge of
giving them (or at
the very least, your
editors) the word
counts for articles.
If that’s the case,
InDesign can help.
Put your text frames
in place on the page
where the article
will appear, then
go under the Type
menu and choose
Fill With Placeholder
Text to fill the text
frames with sample
text. Now all you
have to do is look at
InDesign’s built-in
word count, which is
found by going under
the Window menu
and choosing Info.
At the bottom of the
Info palette, you’ll
find the “counts,”
and the second
one down is the
word count for your
selected text. (Note:
If you don’t see this
information, it’s just
hidden. Go to the Info
palette’s flyout menu
and choose Show
Options.)

existing entry for your home folder. What you’ve
just done is to create the view action that will
act on the folders in your home folder. The next
step is to customize the settings to match your
desired views.
The key to this Automator action — to change
the views on all the folders in your user’s folder,
you must check the Apply Changes to Sub-
folders checkbox. Once enabled, your Automator
action will run on every folder within your user’s
folder, not just the topmost one. Putting it all
together, this full-size screenshot is representa-
tive of the completed Automator action — your
version, of course, will have your home folder and
your view settings in it.
Please read this bit before proceeding!
Before you go any further, be aware that the next
step will set all folders in your user’s folder to the
settings you’ve created here. It may also take a
while to run, depending on how deep your folder
structure is. No data will be lost, but if you had
customized window settings for a folder (for
instance, a downloads folder in list view sorted
by date), those settings will be overwritten.
The last step is to simply click the Run button
and wait for Automator to finish running the
action. When it’s done, every folder in your user’s
folder will open with the settings you created.
Save your Automator action somewhere handy
for future use, just in case you want to run it
again.
What About New Folders?
When you add a folder to your user’s folder, it
won’t automatically inherit these settings – it
will keep whatever settings are presently in use.

TIP!
Calculating the
Number of Listings
Automatically in
Adobe InDesign
CS2:
You’ve placed a
listing of products
with prices from
Excel as a table with
each item and its
price in a separate
row. There are
hundreds of listings
in your table, but how
can you figure out
the exact number
without counting
them manually?
With the Type tool
active, move your
mouse up toward
the top of the tables
column until you
get a heavy down
arrow. Click to select
this entire column.
Then take a look in
your Info palette
(Widow>Info) for
a line count which
should equal your
number of listings
(as long as there are
no empty cells). It
takes a fraction of
a second, but who’s
counting?
