I had to sorta reinstall and still haven't figured out how to turn the damn time/bar to the right thing off (got all the other bits working but that one and gave up).<br /><br />You're probably copy/pasting with formatting. There's a Mac page here that gives you the mac keyboard command <a href="http://www.cultofmac.com/137885/top-10-tips-of-a-mac-master-os-x-tips/" rel="nofollow">From 2012 but keyboard commands as basic as that tend not to change</a> and the windows version is control + shift +v. I've gotten in the habit of using notepad to strip out formatting but I also tend to have a notepad document open so...<br />Be interesting to see what you think of 10. I'm vaguely considering it (because I really don't like 8), but I'm a) already going to have to teach my mom Win 7 as she slowly converts over from her old laptop to my old laptop and b) I either need to be in the mood to fiddle with it or 8 has to break badly enough to motivate me. But then again I've turned off windows updates since April because my computer doesn't reliably reboot so it could happen (and yes, I know turning off updates is a big risk and I plan to deal with it once the crisis wheel that is this summer so far stops).

I am hesitating, but with your comments, Jean, I will try it. <br />As I am not a blogger, perhaps it will not cause any problems. But I plan to discuss this with our tech consultant. He keeps us out of trouble with our many computers and servers which keeps our architectural practice in business.<br />I, personally, prefer knitting or hand drafting to computer drawing. It is some much more satisfying.<br /><br />I have just ordered Shirley Jackson's Lottery from Amazon. I did not get it on my Kindle because I found a used copy for so much less, and I like having a real book to read every now and then.<br />It sounds like you are keeping very busy!

I just finished Tana French's newest, have you read her? My husband just upgraded to Windows 10. Lots of tweaking with other programs apparently, but since there is no shouting or profanity coming from the other room it mustn't be too bad.Mary Louhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05588244535423212079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8466385.post-84934425875786369942015-07-31T12:34:39.520+01:002015-07-31T12:34:39.520+01:00Amazon sites in both US and UK has a wide array of...Amazon sites in both US and UK has a wide array of pill cutters.
