Do you have cloud storage? Not sure if all devices can access it but I have it between my Win 10 and Hotmail account.

Does iPhone have a slot for Micro SD?. You can do a direct transfer I believe.
You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Cloud does not solve the problem. Internet is awful at the courthouse. I need to plug a cable in and transfer.

Heretic! :)

There's a very simple solution.

I thought that even under Windows 10 that the media (pictures) folder was available through "My Computer"

Google says to plug in the iThing and run the windows Photos app.

Is there an easy way to sync two computers at the touch of a button?

My laptop had an issue again, costing me a ton in lost work and repair. I am thinking of getting a cheapo desktop for when I work at home or get a second laptop for work. That would cut down on my heavy, road-warrior use somewhat. What I need to be able to do is touch a button and they sync, so I cannot tell one from the other as far as what is on the desktop, where the files are. etc.

Ideas?

Go on Walmart's site and get a refurbished
Dell for around $125. These are great
computers that were hardly used. They
come from offices that buy a hundred at
a time and they're used for is data strorage
and retrieval for 2 years. Nobody played
video games on them or used them in
any way that would harm them, they're
like new.

They come with W 10 on them. I got one
4 years ago and it's still going strong.
It came with business Windoze 9 on it.

This drives me flipping crazy.

Excel a few versions ago would highlight the word when it ran a spell check. Not it seems to just highlight the cell. This is annoying as it is doesn't even highlight the cell much.

Anyone know if I just haven't flipped the right switch or something? I really want it to work like it did in 2005.
