DoctorLaptop’s Windows 10 Upgrade Reminder
Windows 10 Free Upgrade Ends 29 JULY
Warning: Always back up your data to an external memory device before doing upgrades from one system to another.
Should you upgrade to Win 10?
My opinion is, if your computer is only 3yrs old and supported by the manufacturer for the upgrade, then yes. Properly installed with correct Win 10 drivers it is an advance from Win 8.1. Win 10 has new features that will become more important as our networked devices grow in number and complexity. Soon your smart appliances, auto computer, health monitor wristband and home security system will all be talking to your primary computer.
REMEMBER: You MUST check the manufacturer’s website for the Win 10 supported model list. If you ain’t on the list, don’t upgrade.
Do not trust the Microsoft Win 10 Compatibility
Check! If you have a 3+yr old laptop with Win 7 or 8.1, and you like
it, keep it. Because you can only expect a laptop to last about 6yrs anyway.
What if you have a Win 10 capable model but are not ready to do the upgrade
yet? You can reserve a free upgrade. To do this you do the Win 10 upgrade and
then roll back within 30 days to the old system. When you do the Win 10
upgrade later you will be automatically activated for free. Full instructions

Urgently in need of a QUALIFIED geek to sort out Macbook and iMac, iCloud storage and general cleaning up. With respect, I really need someone who is a professional specialist in MAC soft and hardware, not just someone who has a MAC and fiddles about. My last resort will be to dismantle it and lug it to La Cañada Apple Store but I would prefer someone to come and sort it out at home in Competa. Any takers? Obviously expect to pay.

Photos must be in JPG or JPEG Format
Please do not send ads for property / real estate.
All formatting, pretty colours, bold, underlining, strange fonts etc are automatically removed.
Please – Don’t use all Block CAPITALS LIKE THIS or I may have to send it back for you to put into normal case (This is the way people normally write, with capital letters where appropriate – such as “I” and place names “Malaga”, makers’ names such as “Electrolux”, days of the week “Monday”
You must include contact details, either an email address or a telephone number in the text. If you don’t I cannot publish it. Often I cannot “extract “your email address from the email, so repeat it please.

If you want to send a picture please send it as an attachment to your email, in JPG or JPEG format and try and keep the size down to around 200KB.
Please don’t send PDFs or Word documents.
Your email address must be quoted in this forrmat…I insert spaces within the address so that nasty software can’t steal their address for spam purposes – e,g, my address is correctly janekirkspain@gmail,com
if it were a Contributor’s address I’d insert spaces thus –
janekirkspain @ gmail,com.
So all you do is remove those spaces before contacting a contributor.
New Rules for Blog
The rules for Blogs have changed and it now means that I could face a fine if I publish any negative reviews of any person or company – even though it may be true or half true.
Thank you – Working together we can achieve so much! Jane
