To feel a bit overwhelmed by gadgets?

[superstarheartbreaker]

I do love my gadgets but I don't really know how to use a lot of them effectively. I recently installed a TalkTalk freeview box and don't yet know how to use it properly, I can only use about 10% of what my digital camera is capable of and my laptop is 'slow' and I'm not sure how to fix it. I just feel a bit fatigued by it all like I can't keep up with it all. Also I don't yet know how to take photos with my phone as I don't have an SD card ionstalled but I can't figure out where the SD card should go. Half the problem is that I don't have the time to spend hours reading manuals and faffing around. I guess if I had a dp he would figure it out for me.

It's really the only reason to get married tbh.

Yes I think more could set up small businesses offering flat rates for coming round to demonstrate this sort of thing.

It's so much easier than a manual if someone shows you and you have a go there and then.

Never seen an ad that is clear about the help and the price that would make me book.

Why not post in Geeks and ask the questions?

I cant help with the freeview as I dont use that, but about the laptop and the phone maybe I can help out.

What is the laptop running? Windows 7? When does it seem slow?

What make is your phone?

"Half the problem is that I don't have the time to spend hours reading manuals and faffing around. "

i'm pretty sure that's all of your problem

get onto google, type in the name of your phone (pref model number) and "how do i put in an sd card" and your answer will appear.

plus: my DH doesn't know arse end of a computer from its elbow.
I'm the one that does all that stuff.
