 my port report
My port report

As some of you may know
I lost the G on my laptop
and
had to purchase a new keyboard

Until Heather shared her well kept secret with me
  solving my missing g spot dilemma ...

I was not aware a computer keyboard
could be connected to another computer
with its own keyboard ...

especially a lap top


The geek squad told me
In order for the new keyboard to do its thing
it had to be connected to a port and I only had 3
One was needed for what I call my at&t stick
which allows me access to the internet
and
after much trial and error
sweat and tears
I discovered it only opened the doors to the world wide web
allowing me entrance
if it was plugged into the lower right hand port…

(boy, figuring that out was quite an ordeal and another story)

the third port of call was shared by 2 other devices
one to sync my I pod
and
the other to download or upload (whatever) my photos
from my digital camera

When the “internet stick” was in the lower left port
none of the other usb cords had enough room
to do their thing
so I was advised to purchase an extension chord of sorts
to add a few more ports?

So how was your day?

What's a key lost here or there? Don't they provide enough spares on your keyboard? Mine has lots of extra ones. They all have F on them like F1, F2, F3, etc.

Hi Roe... I had the same problems you did, being a collector of gadgets I needed USB ports for each one of them and my Lap top only had 2 ports and I had 7 gadgets.
well I discovered that you can hook up as many as you want to but you have to buy a hub. so I bought a hub for each port and problem solved

USB Hubs are great. I have one for my home laptop and even have one for my mac laptop at work.

I am glad it helped getting a new keyboard Roe. I have missed you around here. :) Love ya.*hugs*

silly peepz and your gadgets!
cheers!

Gee I'm glad things are looking better for your keyboard

Well bub
I have no hub
And shamefully, no retort

But I could build my laptop a little fort
To hold an extra port

Is anyone else in here a little warm

Or is that my computer?
I think I need a trouble shooter
Or perhaps a techie tutor?
