Wow! This is my first time all the way to to the end in very long time. I’m glad though I’m here. I planned to attend meetings on Wednesdays but didn’t make it….will make in the Fall though.
We are glad you enjoyed our classes. If you are on Facebook, you can also post your comment there. We have information and others in the group who post on our Facebook page. This is great for when we are in between class schedules. We look forward to seeing you in the fall!
I installed SuperDuper on my iMac to back up my internal hard drive to a LaCie external hard drive. In the process I somehow managed to schedule 2 separate backups—one at noon and one at 5 p.m. The problem is that the noon backup is a complete backup. I wanted it to be like the later backup and just backup any changes, because a complete backup is unnecessary and time consuming. I deleted the noon backup and now can’t figure out how to reschedule it without changing the 5 p.m. backup. I’ve searched online and gone thru the user’s guide, but no luck. Any advice will be appreciated.
Attended the Wed meeting with Don in the chair , my question Don can you let me have the method of shutting down my MacBook Air that you addressed on Wed. I already installed the dictation and it is really good.
Interesting talk
I took pictures with my iPhone that synced with my iPad but not my MacBook Pro. How do I get that to happen? I never had a problem before.

If you are using iCloud drive, all photos you take on all devices appears in the cloud and then can be downloaded to all devices.
If you are using photo stream, it has to be turned on on all your devices using the same Apple ID.
On your Mac go to system preferences, iCloud, photos and check one of those boxes.
On your iDevices, go to settings, iCloud, photos and check one of those boxes.
Be sure you check the same boxes on all devices.
I have managed to get my photo in…John

How do I reset my password. Plus when I click below email I get a default to

I’d appreciate hearing about members’ experiences/thoughts regarding WhatsApp and Signal. I have read that WhatsApp shares users’ data with FaceBook (if one agrees with their T & Cs.)
Jeanne, Please post this on the Yahoo discussion group to get the most input from members.
Thanks

When I am signing in I am not getting the Welcome page but the following:
Not Found
Nothing was found at this location. Maybe try a search
Can you let me know if there is a problem?
Thanks for your help.

Everything seems to be working fine. I note that you did sign in successfully as you had also on prior days.
I’d suggest logging out, clearing your cache and history in Safari and then log back in. Please let me know if the issue persists.
Thanks
Marty
This is the second email NMUG has sent saying “sign on”. Why are we singing on? And how do we know we have done so?
Thanks Mary. You know that you registered once you sign on. Your name appears in the upper right tool bar. You can change your password and edit your profile there as well. Just click on your name for the choice.
The emails asking everyone to sign on are to promote the club’s members to use the site.
The board hopes that all registrations, membership starts and renewals, and class registrations will be done this way in the future. This simplifies bookkeeping and handling by Members and by those volunteers who maintain the club and its organization.
We also have Member restricted content, like the class notes etc which are only available by signing in.
Thanks for your support.
Marty
Braker, turn off your spam filter. It is refusing us verification. Please do not use such things with the NMUG site.
Thanks
Marty
