...or a BIG glitch if you are a mac fan and are familiar with the "sad mac" face or the "chimes of doom". I am having issues with my mac for the first time in 20 years and may be on borrowed time right now! Just a quick note to say "I'm still alive and well"!
Very busy here this week, good weather for outside work such as pulling weeds, burning debris and getting the yard ready for spring. The seedlings are coming along nicely, although still in their little cells for the time being.
Still quilting every chance I get as the one I'm working on has a birthday deadline of the end of February. The computer issues have put my quilting in the back seat for the day however, the computer definitely takes priority!
I'll be spending the rest of the day backing up files and then tomorrow doing a reinstall that will hopefully fix the issue. Mac's are known for being pretty user friendly to troubleshoot and repair, however I'm worried about backing up the thousands of photos I have before I do something stupid while reinstalling LOL, it's usually user error with these :)
Still keeping up with all your blogs on my hubby's little pathetic netbook, but I can't blog on it! No photos today because I need to keep all the extra riff-raff/non essential cables off the computer.
Wish me luck, I'm going to need it!
Oh no! Not the sad face Mac!! My hubby is a Mac guru if you need help troubleshooting. Good luck.

I thought it was quiet over here! Glad to hear you're ok -- and hope the mac gets better soon!!
ReplyDeleteOhhhh good luck. Nothing worse than computer problems. I hope your Mac is back up and running well soon.
ReplyDeleteI am going to go out on a limb and assume you did not have the same mac for 20 years, right? That would be impossible. Well best of luck.
ReplyDeleteJane, LOL you are correct - this one is about 4 years old otherwise I'd be replacing it!
ReplyDeleteThinking good computer thoughts. :)
ReplyDeleteOh no... I hate it when the computer acts up... Good luck getting it fixed!
ReplyDeleteGood Luck fixing your computer. It's going to take some time to copy thousands of photos
ReplyDeleteWishing you lots of luck. I may be joining you soon, it looks like my video card is going wonky. I needed an excuse for a new computer, I've about worn out this one!
ReplyDeleteBest of luck to you! But, perhaps at 4 years old, it might be time to replace?
ReplyDeleteOkay, this is a bit of an inside joke, so don't y'all go thinkin' I'm bein' mean, but Erin has given me SUCH guff about NOT being a MacFan that all I can say is:
ReplyDeletehee
hee
hee
(That said, I truly hope you don't lose anything on it!!)
;) xo
Sue, no way! 4 years is very young for a mac! Plus I have the one they are still selling in the stores today LOL
ReplyDeleteChicken Mama, hahaha indeed - but did you not read the part about "the first time in 20 years"? And I might add that I'm on it now and it did NOT need to go anywhere for repairs LOL... silly Chicken Mama, I will continue the torture... :)
Yikes, I hate that Mac "click of death" face. I've been a Mac user for decades, and whenever I see that Mac icon on boot up, it freaks me out. Hopefully you got your computer problems resolved.
