OH MY !

That was an interesting experience

Here's the link to the Ts&Cs

oh - Happy Birthday Barrie

See you enjoy it

AH - just watched Silent Witness

I'm sitting relaxin with a glass of red

He loved the Canon - that's his prerogative

However he expects you to use a camera with which you are not familiar and he wants to you shoot his wedding on the Canon - would have thought that was a recipe for a disaster.

Ask him if he would like to do a professional job with a camera he didn't know inside out and back to front .

Stick to your guns on this one .

That has given me the biggest grin possible !

She is absolutely great

And just look at the detail on her tail !

I'll swear she is laughing at you

And yes - documents are a pain as the Pad doesn't recognise Open Office , Neo Office or even M$S Office - it wants docs as Apple's own pages. As you have seen PDFs are the way to go for getting docs onto the Pad and managing to read them .

Now we know that, it's easy to cope with - type document on either my MacBook Pro in Neo-Office /M$S Office and then export as PDF and pop in the DropBox - it's then read in London no problem . He writes a doc on his Linux based lappy - exports to PDF and pops it in the DropBox and it's there on the Pad for me to read , and believe me we did 48 page bilingual documents like that and I was reading them offline

I said it before and I'll say it again - and you seem to have found it works

DROPBOX.

I'm just back from a week in Dublin - took about 40 pics [ mainly liturgical so I'm not posting them .]

I downloaded to the Pad using the SD Card adapter and they appeared miraculously in PHOTOS, BUT I found editing them was a total pain - so plonked iPhoto on and put the pics in that - it allows a decent amount of editing but the photos are now [ I did not delete them from the card ] on my Aperture Library [ an external drive] and are now decently edited. I'm still not confident using iPhoto on the Pad but I'll get there.

Bernard - are you able to get to an Apple Store ? The staff will take her individually and help her problem solve and I suspect it will be a lot easier that way . I went into an iPad workshop and was told at that just to bring the baby in and staff would help - and they did - I had to do a System change on the MacBook Pro and also move to the Cloud - and they hand held me through it .

hmmm - think I'd still prefer my GodPapa's stack of pancakes


[ hmmm not had those for a while ]
