Re: touch typing

Hello Lorie, It sounds like you are experiencing something called slide to type. You may wish to turn this off, if it is giving you issues. 1. Go into your settings app on any iOS device. Step 2. Go under the keyboard settings, under general. Step 3. Switch the “Slide to type“ button to off.

When you have apps in your app store that you have purchased, but not installed onto your iPhone, do you see a download button when going to install them? Someone on Twitter was saying you have to install purchased apps that you want on your iPhone from iTunes. On 6/28/17, Jenine Stanley

Re: Shopping on Amazon using Safari on Mac OS

Hi Paul, I am having the same issue as you, and am using both a Mac Mini 2012 running Sierra, and a MacBook Air running the same. It seems to only happen on certain macs, as my friend Michelle does not seem to have this issue. Unfortunately, I can only suggest the same thing as was posted

Re: Installing a new SSD Drive. what should i do to transfer my system?

As far as your question about moving your old install to it, I think… and someone can gently correct me if needed, but you may be able to use something like Superduper backup software, to make a bootable copy of your current hard drive. However, that does cost money. Unfortunately, I don’t know

Mac mini and SSD ideas/thoughts

Hi all, Has anyone checked out the portable, external Samsung T3 SSD’s from Amazon? Do you think this would be a good idea? I thought it might, as getting it to a shop to get an internal one would be hard, if you bought your mac mini used or like-new from somewhere else. Maybe, just maybe,
