Monday July 9-Software
Hi Krafters!
Today I do not have a project to share, but I did want to post on my usual day. Kind of a long post...but not really LOL!
Last year, I bought a back up laptop to my original laptop just in case something happened. That laptop gave me the white screen of death a few months after purchasing the new one. I was grateful for having my back up laptop so I did not miss a beat. I started using the new one exclusively less than a year ago. Last week my laptop screen fizzed out. WHAT??? I thought I would get more use out of it before it died :( I am lost without my laptop! ALL of my programs are on there to include Photoshop, Silhouette Studio, FunTime and CCR!! I was on the verge of tears! I have other means to get on the internet, but not for my beloved crafts! Why oh why didn't I put PSE on the desktop??? I can't edit my photos! The good news is my laptop is being repaired. However, it will be days before I get it back! They believe the EXTREME heat we have been experiencing had something to do with it!
The moral of the post is:
1. ALWAYS have a back up computer/laptop
2. Have your software on more than one computer!
3. Back-up your pictures and documents OFTEN!
4. Keep your electronics in a cool area!!! ALWAYS!!!
I hope this post can help someone or at least remind my readers to take precautions so you are not stuck like Chuck...like me...Krafthead~

So sorry to hear about your laptop. Good pointers for us bloggers out there.
ReplyDeleteKenya, I know the feeling, I have my pictures and files back up all over the place because of my crashing laptops or computer, learned the hard way.
ReplyDeleteI hope you can get your files back. My husband know of a program I can send you if they have trouble backing up the files.
Great pointers.
K - I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND!!! My baby (Mac) died months ago and I have taken it around to get a quote on how much a logic board would cost to repair. Then I was directed to a site by a co-worker who showed me one for $200. Now that there is hope in sight a repair is fast approaching. :D All this to say that I pray you get your computer back REAL SOON. My heart and prayers are with you.
