Hi Everyone I am an electrical contractor, that has limited knowledge on computers.....have done Cat5E wiring courses, cabinets and points...unbeatable way to connect! Also have an Amateur Radio license although not on air at the moment.... used to build my own computers, in the 286 days so understand the construction area perhaps, never really got into programming... used to be able to create a network until windows 10...which seems to now have stopped me transferring files from laptop to PC..!

I am the owner of Extreme Tech Support. I have been involved with forums and community building for several years. I decided that the computer help niche needed a new site to infuse new ideas. I hope to bring a new perspective to the PC and computer help World. Finally I'd like to say hello to all visitors and future members of Extreme Tech Support.

I tried to post this reply, and kept getting a message saying that it looks spam-like, or contains unacceptable elements. What's the problem? "Thanks, higer. This is the other half of the problem with my non-scrolling mouse you resolved for me. When I clicked on your link and tried to install it, I got a message saying that I already have a newer version on my computer. I assume that must be the software for the non-scrolling mouse? In any case, the optical mouse comment said that I had to uninstall the other mouse software before installing the optical mouse software. My problem is, how do I operate/navigate with the 4000 software uninstalled and the optical mou…

After years of being dissatisfied with my PC, and my latest PC being a real lemon, I have made the decision to try a Mac mini, and an Air Superdrive. I already have an iPad, an iPhone 4S, an iPhone 4 (my wife's) and several iPods, I decided it is time to go completely Apple. I have never had any problems with my Apple products. My last PC was, at the time it was built, a very powerful platform. I used it mostly for gaming on the weekends, but also for working at home on business projects, all in MS Office, as well as some photo editing, and from time to time watching streaming movies and DVD's. My question is, which Mac Mini do I need. Is 2gb of memory enough, or…

Hello, My name is Stan. I am in the southern CA area. A TRUE Computer Novice ... when I had computer classes in college, they still had punch cards to give you an idea of my 'generation' ! My entire computer experience has been Apple [Mac], and only began after getting married to an avid Mac user. The reason that I sought out help here on the forums is that I have been a very active forum contributor on motorsport enthusiast forums, and know that a wealth of knowledge exists on these boards. I am hopeful to have someone or plural spoon-feed me information about repairing/upgrading an older Mac Mini G4 that is currently a paperweight. I have a MacBook, and the late…

Hi everyone, I'm not certain this is the right forum for me but I am really frustrated right now with Hotmail and customer support from Microsoft and I am looking for help or advice. I completely forgot my password to Hotmail (moving to South Korea form Canada...these things happen). I kept trying to access Hotmail with the result that I am now locked out. I have made five different requests to customer suppport over the last three days and I have had no response. I've tried to access the hotmail help forum on the microsoft site but I have to sign in with the hotmail username and password and, well...I am locked out of my hotmail account so I am unable to sign in.

Hello everyone. So glad I found this site. I have had my mac mini for many years and I can honestly say I have never had any problems with it. I have never even used the start-up disc and I don't know where it is. I guess it is time to learn more about my mini because I am having trouble. I will post on the Help forum. I am a graphic designer -- freelance for the last 12 years. I have been using Mac since about '86??? (I think). I was a typographer and used AGFA equipment when they told us we were switching to mac and my first one had a 80mb hard drive and 8 mbs of ram. Wow that was a long time ago. I hope that I will be able to contribute on this forum as much as I…

Greetings Long time Mac user, 1998. Service computers, camped in a data center in down town atlanta ga. Just got a mini server, today in fact. I have a mini mac PowerPC G4. Here is the question I would like to get an answer to. I want to migrate the applications from the G 4 mini to the server and then, and I know i am wasting resources. Use the server just for home, Quicken burn some Itunes for the hotrod and store my photos and other miss type of stuff. A. I think I need to boot the G 4 in the shared CD mode; then using the disk utility run migration, for my home folder and applications. I believe this will bring over the libraries also ...... is that correct …

I'll be first to introduce myself to anyone that happens along. My name is Bob Schwarz and I am the owner of this community as well as a few other which are all a part of Schwarz Network. I am an avid Microsoft supporter and also a beta tester of Microsoft software. I like to be on the bleeding edge so I will run the betas as my main software. In doing so I learn a lot. I will use Microsoft Help Forums to share that knowledge and help people.

I am Bob Schwarz owner of MacForo as well as a network of other sites. I bought my first Mac about 10 years ago. Even though I owned a Mac I have always used a PC at work and at home. I bought a Mac Mini and since I bought it I find that I am using my PC's less and less. I created this forum for Mac Mini owners to discuss the Mac Mini. I hope to learn from the members here and then share what I have learned.
