A warm welcome to Mac-Forums, Jason. We are a friendly bunch and deny that there are "silly questions". Happy to help in any way.

If you need assistance, it always helps if you include details about the Device in question - year model, operating system and so on.

Ian

A warm welcome to Mac-Forums, Tim. Good company, good advice and lots of friends here.

You can help by answering questions or submit your own. When the latter, try to include the specs for whatever Apple device for which you have a problem - eg Year, Model, Operating System etc.

Welcome Julio - wife & I have visited Italy twice (1971 & 1996) - would love to go back (for the scenery and the food; plus the wonderful people!) - but welcome to the forum and I hope that you enjoy! Dave :)

Hello to everyone, new here, obviously, but just want to say hi and thank you for allowing me to join the forum.

I live in Suffolk UK, originally a Londoner though, I moved to Suffolk 20 years ago. Photography and antiques are a passion of mine, alongside gardening (flowers and growing my own veg). I also love countryside walking when I can, as I have spinal issues/injury in three places, chronic pain and fibromyalgia, but I try to not let either limit my life. I just take each day as it comes, get on with my work, my hobbies, etc., as best I can each day.

I am a dog lover, I love watching sci-fi shows/films (yes I am a Trekkie fan) and a massive West Ham fan.

Anyway, enough rambling,
Misfit38 over and out for now.

Welcome to the forum Misfit. I'm sure that you will fit in here. with this friendly bunch :cool:

Don't forget that the only silly question is the one you don't ask! I have asked lots that I thought were silly over the years and someone has always come up with the answer.

Do you get Star Trek Strange New Worlds where you are? I just started watching it, and I can't believe how good it is. The writing is good, the acting is wonderful, and they must have a huge budget for special effects!

Yes, I have watched both seasons, I just finished watching season two last week. I won't say too much as you have only started watching it. I absolutely love the show. The writing and acting are excellent. I thought ST Discovery's special effects were good, but SNW is even better, as is the story arc. I cannot wait for season three!
