Little tid-bits of useless information?

Are you one who gets frustrated with your computer because you can't always do what you want to do? It's not the computer Jack..... it's you!

Tip #1 Supose you see something on a website and just have to have it but for some reason, you highlight and right click but this nasty little pop-up message says, "action disabled" All you have to do is highlight what you want..... then hold down the ctrl key and hit C. Nothing happens? Oh yes it did... whatever was highlighted is copied to your clipboard. Now open the appropriate program (i.e. Word, or whatever) and choose paste. Either by right clicking or hold down the ctrl key again and hit V.

Tip #2 You're cruising the net. You want to go "back" to the previous page. You can click on back or you can just hit the backspace button.

Tip #3 An easier way to skip back and forth between programs is to: Hold down the alt key and hit tab. What this will do is open a little pop-up window that shows icons for all the programs you have running (most of which will most likely be minumized). Continue to hold down that alt key and hit the tab button until the program you want open, is highlighted and then let off the buttons. Whaaaaaa laaaaaaaa!

Tip #4 Need to look at that hard drive to find some file? Most of you probably didn't think to create a short-cut to your hard drive onto your desktop or the quick launch bar, right? Didn't think so. Well you don't need it. Right mouse click on your start button and choose "explore". There's your hard drive! More tips later or else just email me some questions. I kinda like helping.
