I'm sure for most of you this will be simple stuff, but for me it might as well be the final exam for an astro-physics class in grad school!!!!!
Before my old 'puter did the crash and burn and resultant replacement my kid transferred my pictures to a disc... I want to put some of the pics, but not all of them, on my new 'puter.... How do I do this, or is it best left for the kid to do sometime he happens to make an appearance at home for something other then food, sleep, or $$$$$$$ ????????
I've got a photo gallery set up Denny, guess I could just transfer the one's I want into there???????
Ok.... Sounds fairly simple I'll give it a try later today... Got to get out in the shop now and get some work done!!!! Thanks
Everytime I hear or somebody helping someone out that involves right clicking on anything, I am reminded about my mother needing help one time.
So, my dear old mother had a friend Lois, that had a picture of her grandchildren on her computer as her wall paper. Well, my mom saw this and had to have a picture of her grandkids as her wall paper as well. At this time, my mom and dad had owned their computer for probably 6 months and she called one day asking me to help her change her background on her screen. Here is how the conversation went:
Son: Ok mom, right click on an empty area of your desktop.
Mom: What's that?
Son: Your screen mom.
Mom: There is no empty area.
Son: Sorry, I meant an area with no icons
Mom: You mean the small picture things on the same screen that says start?
Son: Yes. Move the mouse away from the start button and those pictures where the screen is blank and right click.
Mom: Oh ok, wait, what do you mean by "right click"
Son: Ok, your right hand is holding the mouse right?
Mom: Yes.
Son: Ok, when your holding the mouse, the button that your middle finger is resting on is the right mouse button, click it.
Mom: Push it with my middle finger?
Son:........Yes mom, if you don't use your middle finger, the computer will know you're doing it wrong and it will not allow us to continue....:LOL:
She didn't find it near as funny as I did.....
Cheers,
