2. I tend to save files to my desktop and when running multiple aplications. I hate having to close a zillion things to get a file.
3. Whats a good picture viewer I keep multiple pics on my desktop and when i open a pic it opens in preview and all i wanna do it hit next but I cant i have to close it out and click on a new pic
4. What;s the Mac equivalent of ctl alt delete or like a task manager. I have too freeze ups and its 3 weeks old. I would like to see what tasks are running and why it bogs down every once and a while

1. Command+shift+3 will take a whole screen screenshot.
1a. Command+shift+3 will allow you to "draw" a box on the screen where you want to capture
2. put all 4 fingers on your trackpad and slide them up at the same time like you're extending your fingers. it'll move everything out of the way so you can access your desktop
3. You need to select multiple pictures for the next stuff to work
4. Command+Option+Esc will bring up the force quit prompt
