    Do you recommend a wifi router for iMac's

    lol that's awesome! I bet she is real happy now!

    From 2019 to current has been the worse time of my life. I lost my father to cancer the end of 2019 and ever since I have not been able to get my life back to normal! Very depressed/sad and can't seem to stop crying!  I have to be very happy that my husband does everything he can to help out with the crazyness of everything that has effected us both. Sometimes I don't know how he puts up with me. lol He is a builder/contractor so he can build me a mansion if needed but can't turn on a computer to save his life lol That's okay tho lol We are both in our mid 50's, have 2 grown children, 5 grand children and are very much home body's since life got crazy. With the wifi, I think getting the one you suggested will be great for what we do here at home. If we stream anything from netflix then we are usually sitting watching together. As for the modem, We ONLY have internet through Comcast. I called a year or two ago because I knew that my modem was very old but the guy at Comcast said that what I use it for it fits me perfect. So I guess that's why he didn't offer any other box, but did frustrate me when I knew he didn't listen to me about turning the old box in. lol I will be happy to make it clear with my video on or a snap shot who I give the old modem too when returning it. lol I hate to put out the 15 dollars a month when it doesn't work well anyway. I am going to order the wifi box but would like to get a modem at the same time. Does it matter what type of modem I purchase. I will call comcast once I have the new modem here at my house. I can't wait to stop paying them monthly for the modem box lol

    Since asking for help with my wifi issues I totally forgot to ask if you could recommend a good Modem? I have had the same Modem from Comcast for maybe 13 years. My brother asked me if I ever thought about using my own modem. I have no idea if it is good to buy my own modem or just call Comcast and see if I can get an updated Modem. What do you recommend? I use my computer for work sometimes at night and it seems to be okay, I truly don't see no issues with it other then wishing I would hook up another monitor. lol  I only work from home when needed to catch up on things, but I want to make sure that I am protected well and have the ability to connect to my work computer with no issues.

    Since I do work from at night once in a while and we do stream a lot I really do want the best that I can get in a modem and wifi. I also need to make sure that everything is dummy friendly when it comes to setting up everything. lol

    Comcast reads ---    Your Plan Speed  200 Mbps   Speed to your computer   64.9 Mbps   My house is approx - 1500sq one level ... The modem and wifi that I have now is in a spare bedroom that never has the door opened. Just purchased a row machine that we set up in our garage that will need wifi. My other machines are out there too but they do not need wifi.

    I have poor connection towards the back of my house with the wifi. I am not sure how the garage is for wifi I have not used it out there. Before changing out wifi's a couple of years ago, I started with Apple Airport Express. Then my daughter gave me the Apple AirPort Extreme - which I don't think it works well at all, I can't even get my "Ring" front door bell to connect to it.  I really want to buy something that will reach all areas of my home/garage. Only thing connected connects right now is my iMac and Cell phone.

     
     
     

     

     

    Photoshop shuts down as soon as I open a file from Bridge

    Mojave is a little more hyper when it comes to programs working. You have to add Photoshop to the Security & Privacy section (click the checkbox in the list,) and it's just not CS5, it's ALL versions of PS. Well at least as far as my knowledge goes.

    I am using the program now and not having any issues... I hope when I close down it doesn't show an "crash" message.

    Brian, can you explain how to add Photoshop to the Security & Privacy section? You say checkbox in the list???

    Ok, well, go ahead and restart the computer and see if the problem persists.

    Also, is it only doing this with raw files?  What about PSDs or jpegs?

    Good question. I opened the raw files, so not sure about jpegs. I thought it was fixed but when closing Photoshop it sent me a notice of another crash incident. I have to be up for work in 4 hours... will not be able to look into anything more until tomorrow evening. 6:00PM Pacific Time ?

     

    EHD recommendations?

    forgot to add more to my responce

    I am not sure what a thunderbolt Port is... I am wanting something that will hold a TON of pictures, I shoot Raw files so the EHD seems to fill up quick.

    Being that I am wanting something that will hold a lot of pictures, I think I am probably looking around a few hundred dollars?

     

    I purchased some memory from Crucial and when it came I was in shock what I bought! I am so stupid. I should have bought 2 sticks of the 8GB but for some reason I bought 2 sticks of 4GB each. :-(

    EHD recommendations?

    Hello,

    I am looking to replace 2 EHD, I am not a professional photographer, but I do take millions of pictures of my family. My 2 EHD have been purchased from Costco "WD" and worked really well, but they are both full now. I was hoping to get suggestions on what and where to buy?

I was purchasing more memory and was at the last steps of paying and this came on... can't get back on line to see if it went thru or not. ? 

    Hope someone has a suggestion on ... how to fix it! ?
