Pleased to Meet You

[omadonna]

Good morning! My name is omadonna. My husband and I have had Apple computers since 1994. Gosh, our first one was a clunky little box of a thing! We are a bit out of date and hoping to upgrade soon - We have an older iMac and 2 G4's. Husband has an iPhone5 (sorry, I still have an android). For my birthday last month he bought me an iPad mini. I love it! I also have a Kindle. In addition to spending nearly all my free time with my gadgets, I love to knit, crochet and quilt. Sometimes I do those things while playing with my gadgets, LOL. I also maintain a nearly year 'round vegetable garden.

I searched for and found this forum mainly because I am having an issue I can't seem to revolve (and which I will ask about on the appropriate thread in a bit), but I am happy to have found this place and can't wait to look around.

Hello omadonna and welcome to our forum!

 

[omadonna]

Thanks for the welcome! And thanks to the forums info for "really, really" beginners, the question I was going to ask became moot. I was having trouble loading an audiobook that I converted from CD's to my mini and found the answer there. Now, to do some looking around this place.
