To Mike Salter (President):  Congratulations, Mike.  You did it again!  Another entertaining and very informative program about the Tips & Tricks of Windows 7.  Thank you!

Mike demonstrated how to access the download for Windows Live Essentials and install the elements we wanted.  Next came some tips about:

  • Libraries in our computer
  • Photo Gallery
  • Aero
  • Peek
  • Shake
  • Snap
  • Snipping Tool
  • Search
  • Movie Maker

We also learned how to adjust the sensitivity of operative commands for our touch pad on laptops AND how to print from a web page.

All of Mike’s presentations can be viewed through his website at:  www.homeiswhereweparkit.net

Click on “Computer Club” and choose the date.

Next week (January 4) Sue Hepler will present an overview of Picasa – a photo management tool for working with your pictures.

For those people who are out on the golf course or pickleball courts and can’t attend our meetings, Sue will also be holding separate computer classes through the Activities Office. We just completed a “Boot Camp for Beginners” and will be holding some special Picasa classes and other computer issues.  Watch for announcements via the park newsletter, this blog, or Sue’s blog at www.palmcreekupdate.blogspot.com

Learn more about your computer – it is truly a window into the world!
