someone tells me how to get photos from my phone to my pc?

I have it connected to the printer with a usb cable, but nothing happening on the sodding pc. I've done it before (once), can't remember how. WHY WON'T IT WORK?

aGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I haven't got any friends

You need a PA to do all those menial tasks involving technology!

Anyway, as the hub cap and gate were your DH's fault, it's quite obvious that the phone-connecting-to-computer stuff is also his fault. And anything else that might go wrong.

Hullygully · 14/09/2012 12:20

quite.

As I said to him yesterday as the gate fell on the grass, I can't actually do anything except read books. That's it.

CV

Education: lots
Employment: odd
Skills and abilities: Reading books.

I had a friend once having a breakdown becuase her printer wouldn't print so my boyfriend had to go and help. Turns out she wasn't aware the printer had to be plugged in to anything, including the wall....

TheGoldenKnid · 14/09/2012 12:23

Ha, my CV looks like that. Grin

I'm wondering if I can keep going with education until it's time to retire? And then I could spend my retirement reading books.

maras2 · 14/09/2012 12:24

Smash everything anyway,Hully.Tis theraputic.

EmpressOfTheGoldOceans · 14/09/2012 12:27

Hully, have a Brew.

Hullygully · 14/09/2012 12:28

That sounds perfectly reasonable to me cleo

Daren't smash anything else, the debris is getting out of hand

If it's any help I Bluetooth pics from mobile phone to laptop. Bit long winded if you have heaps of pics though.

Blueooth is old skool. We could have a Scandinavian expedition if you like.

UmamiOrange · 14/09/2012 12:35

Blueooth? Him too.

More helpful hints, for the avoidance of future mentaloidaling:

When you want your toaster to make toast, put the bread in the toaster not the microwave.

When you want to post a letter don't put it in the fridge.

Latara · 14/09/2012 12:39

Can i just smash everything for you? I feel very angry right now!! (Certain 2-faced colleagues who belong in the playground aaggghhh!!!)

There just typing that helped :)

Good luck with the camera to PC problem btw; i've been there!

JesusInTheCabbageVan · 14/09/2012 12:49

How in the world did you manage to get to 42 posts without a single snark from the Elite Professional Offended?

Hully, fess up. You've got them all buried under your floorboards or chained in your cellar, haven't you?

TheGoldenKnid · 14/09/2012 12:56

They are all trapped in Hully's pc, Jesus.

Hullygully · 14/09/2012 12:58

I almost failed my degree because I couldn't print out my disertaion.

This was a LONG time ago; no option of emailing it to anyone. The printers at university weren't an option either; you had to book them weeks in advance.

This was also at about 11:00 - deadline was 12:00.

I almost died. Literally.

I had pushed the printer up against the wall, so the paper couldn't come out. I don't actually think I deserve a degree after that demonstration of fuckwittery.

bigkidsdidit · 14/09/2012 13:04

Jenai that made me ROAR that is exactly the sort of thing I do

Which is why even though I have a PhD and two masters and blahblah DH does much better in life than me

I, too, am only suited to reading books

JenaiMarrHePlaysGuitar · 14/09/2012 13:06

Ahem. DISSERTATION.

Hullygully · 14/09/2012 13:06

there are quite a few of us about it seems

TwistyBraStrap · 14/09/2012 13:08

It would be fine if they didn't make things so bloody COMPLICATED.

Don't give me an option involving blueteeth, MMS, SMS, FFS.

I just want to send pictures, dammit!

Hullygully · 14/09/2012 13:10

yes!

I want to put my film in an envelope and get bleary rubbish back after seven weeks of intense anticioation
