Re: IPod reset for estate sale find - 25 days ago

Hey I appreciate all the help and suggestions. If the shoe was on the other foot I would at least like to have any photos back and know that any personal info was safe so I returned to the sale Saturday afternoon. Although there was no one from the family present and they would not give me contact info I talked to the “manager” of the sale and returned it. He promised me it would be returned

Re: IPod reset for estate sale find - 26 days ago

Kind of what I figured. I may swing back there and see if the company running the sale can return it to the family.

IPod reset for estate sale find - 26 days ago

Bought a battery dead 128gb iPod touch as a gamble. Recharged and it is still logged in to the deceased’s personal account. I am NOT going through any info stored, I would like to wipe it and reset. From searching the forum I think I know the answer to this but just wanted to check. Without the persons Apple ID I can not delink from the account or cloud and reset, correct? I will likely have t

Photobucket question - 29 days ago

Just received a notice from Photobucket that since I am a very infrequent user my old account will be restricted for my own protection. When logging in I was notified that my images are being held hostage since I am over the free limit. They want $5.00 a month (apparently in small unmarked bills-I kid) to release my old images. Should I give these guys my credit card info? What are the odds of m

Re: Afganistan: love it or leave it - 30 days ago

WWDCD. What would Dick Cheney do? If we could just pick the next country to invade (hopefully locally, Turkey? Lebanon? Does Africa have oil?) we could recoup the expense of all the equipment and supplies bestowed upon the people of Afghanistan and Iraq. Not to mention the third party profit of supplying parts and ammo for refurbishing older equipment for local war lords. There’s money to be ma

Re: Unclear question on converting Pages text into Illustrator? - 2 months ago

I am not familiar with Pages. Is there a way to outline text? Can you export as an .eps (post script)? If you embed the fonts in the PDF they may import correctly depending on font licensing. Send any fonts used in the file to the illustrator designer.

Re: Spectum is now history - 2 months ago

We had the triple play for Cable, Phone and Internet for around $210 (including HBO) via Comcast. We already had transferred our land line number to Ooma Telo years ago for $6 a month. So dropping cable with phone was an easy choice. Comcast. Originally quoted @ $100 for internet only but through negotiation now have 400 Mbs for @ $60 plus tax plus the ‘flex’ box for internet customers only.

Re: Spectum is now history - 2 months ago

We just cut the cord after decades of cable with Comcast. I bought a $25 dollar antenna from Monoprice for local prime and side channels. We had Amz Prime, Netflix, Paramount (CBS), Hulu w/ads. Comcast offers a ‘Flex’ streaming box for free that includes Peacock Plus (NBC) which I was unaware of so we also have Peacock free via Roku. We use a ROKU and OTA primarily. We picked up HBO Max a

My wife discovered they absolutely hate J.R. Watkins lemon scented spray cleaner. They will not cross a freshly sprayed area. This product smells great and has no toxic ingredients. However our go to site Menards looks like it is no longer carrying it at around $5 for a 24 oz bottle. Amazon has always had it at a ridiculous price of around $17 per bottle. Go figure.

Re: Anyone watching the Chevy vs Honda 500? - 3 months ago

To each his own. My dad loved the 500 and it kind of rubbed off. That and working for Tony Hulman for a very shot period of time made me aware of the history of this race. Lots of blood, sweat, tears and FUN. Of course it helps to live 8 miles away from it.
