This only applies to some Jing Pro users on Mac.
Have you seen this warning?
The situation occurs when you stop recording a video, the Preview Window opens and Adobe Flash presents a warning dialog about Jing trying to connect to the Internet. My hunch is this warning dialog is so easy to dismiss many people don't bother reporting it or look for a solution.
Well, when you get a minute, you can change the Flash settings and never be bothered by it again. Check out this support article to learn how.
Betsy Weber is running a nice series of Screencasting tips from diverse professionals over on the Visual Lounge. Day number one has a special treat in addition to the tip of the day--a song about Jing!
Three guys at work made a song called "Jing Love". I think it's great, but I'm certainly very biased ;)
"Jing Love" was written and performed by:
- Steve Elgas - Software Engineer, Camtasia Studio: guitars, vocals
- Alex Novak - Software Engineer, Screencast.com: guitars
- Clint Hoagland - Software Test Specialist, Camtasia Relay: drum programming, engineering
After reading thousands of feedback emails you've sent us--and responding to as many as we could (probably hundreds)--we're trying something new.
We're using a platform called Get Satisfaction and would love to hear what you think. Get Satisfaction is carefully crafted around the idea that when companies and customers work more closely together--out in the open--everyone wins. We're looking forward to the increased transparency and the ability help people find answers to questions we frequently get via the former feedback forms.
Feel free to head on over to Get Satisfaction right now and post a topic or a response. We're just getting started, so you have a chance to help make it great by sharing your questions, answers, and ideas.
Here's what's in it for you...
- Have a louder voice: Other people can vote up your requests (or you can say "me too" to theirs!) and our product teams will better understand what people need and why
- Find answers faster: Get Satisfaction increases the odds that you'll find the best answer--before you even post a question!
- Hear from a broad range of experts: Over time, you'll see responses not just from our amazingly dedicated and knowledgeable volunteer moderators...but you'll see technical responses from TechSmith developers, tips and work-arounds from user-assistance specialists, and responses from the Product Managers who shape the future direction of the products.
We have high hopes that Get Satisfaction will enhance your TechSmith experience and help you rock (even more!) at what you do. Please give it a try and let us know what you think!
Six months ago, we asked what you did with your Jing captures. Your response was great and it was cool to learn how people used Jing in conjunction with other applications. We also learned (among other things) that by far the most common activity is to use the save and copy buttons.
Well, it's time for another short survey, and we hope you'll participate!
This time we want to get a better sense for how you (granted, people that follow the blog are likely not the "typical" Jinger) use Jing to solve everyday problems and whether it's doing anything in terms of your productivity.
This survey will just take a minute. Thank you!
