iPad Instructions

I want to apologize to any of you out there that has tried to print some of the many recipes I've posted over the last month. It seems I had left them all set as PRIVATE at Google Docs, that wasn't such a good idea was it? I went back and changed the links to all the recipes that I've posted so hopefully, I won't do that again. I changed to Google Docs since their posting is a piece of cake compared to Scribd's "do this-then do this-go back and do this!" It's challenging these days for me to remember what I've done yesterday. so learning a new trick takes some effort on my part! 

I don't ever want to repeat the Cyberspace Train Wreck, it was painful. I was a new blogger and just feeling like I knew what I was doing when I erased all my pictures on posts with one click of a mouse. Poof... gone into that vast wasteland they call the Internet!


We bought an iPad last weekend and I'm pushing my luck changing from desktop to laptop and now tackling a tablet! To make matters worse it didn't come with an instruction book, you have to log onto Apple.com and navigate their site for answers to "How do I erase bookmarks?" ... "What do you mean there's no way to load Norton Anti Virus?" ... " Why doesn't autofill work?" ... "How do I log out of Twitter?"


Why is it that things that are supposed to make our lives more enjoyable add stress? I am enjoying the camera though, but I can't figure out how to load the film...

  1. Since we always run low on ink in the printer, when I spot a recipe I want to nab, I just copy and paste it in an email and send it to myself! Someday, when ink is plenty, I can print those suckers out!

    Good luck with the new toy... you're SO brave to tackle new technology! I salute you!

  2. Joyce, All we can do is keep trying! I know a lot of times I'm like "HUH?" I have a Droid and I don't understand a LOT about it but my kids sure are tickled that I have it. They are determined to keep their old ma up to date.
    Hang in there! xo, Cheryl

  5. The ipad is next on my "get it" list. I was holding out for the 3 and now that it looks like it won't be here for awhile, I don't know whether to wait or not now. My mom got one though, and she is as close to computer illiterate as they come. She loves it!
