Meeting Podcast for September 21, 2010
Mark your iCal Calendar!
We will be celebrating this year’s holiday season on November 17, 2010. The party will include pizza, holiday gifts, and some surprises! We will have a general Q&A and Meet the Members session.
If you happen to have something collecting dust (Mac related!) and would like to get into the holiday spirit a bit early, bring it along!
This meeting will be held at the Truman Recreation Center located at 2705 Canal Street and will start at 6:30. Your name tags will be required!
Due to the meeting room capacity, seating will be limited to the first 100 paid members of The Villages Macintosh User Group. You can sign up at any future meeting or send an email to Thankmasyear@TheVillagesMUG.com
We want feedback! We would like you to take this survey to help us with future meetings.

Select Categories / Meeting Videos from the main menu. You can alternately select Tuesday or Wednesday Meeting to be more specific.
You should see a list of entries, each with a title noting the date. Click on the title of the entry to go to the specific entry. You should be viewing a page with an area setup to display the video.
You can start the video by clicking the play button (farthest left in the bottom bar or the button in the center of the area). The video will start playing as soon as enough data is downloaded to the buffer.
You will see a dot on the bottom bar which will show the player progress. You will also see a blue thermometer. This shows the progress of the download.
If you find the video stopping frequently, your internet service isn’t downloading faster than the video is playing. Just click on the Pause button (farthest left while the video is playing – ||) and let it download for a while to get a larger buffer built up.
If you want to watch the video in full screen, click on the rightmost button in the bottom bar.
If you want to watch in HD (high definition), click on the HD button. If the HD button is not visible, mover your cursor (arrow) over the video to reveal it.
The standard video is about 1 GigaByte in size and the HD is over 3 GB. Performance with both will depend on your download speed.
Tom Hosken suggested we add a FAQ category! So, we did!
