[QUOTE="mb300e, post: 1637132, member: 342473"] Thanks Lisa for your encouraging words. Switching from MS to Mac is a bit like switching countries, and my wife and I have done that three times since we were married 50 years ago mainly for work related reasons like $$$s. New customs, slightly different language, different ways of doing things and so on. But one soon gets into the swing of things by shaking loose of the past. It is interesting that you recommend ejecting external drives before disconnecting them…I have started doing that again with my PCs. Maybe there is a Mac God up there somewhere holding my hand. Usually I have no need to eject my external drives unless I am doing something out of the ordinary like doing a hardware fix. My Dell 755 has two internal HDs, one 500 GB and a 1 TB plus two 500 GB and one 2 TB externals where I keep my pics and video files. Plus a number of 500 GB and 1 TB portables used for long term storage. Best regards from a sunny 60s Florida. Peter B. [/QUOTE]
