Well I guess my time is about due. I think that I have finally earned what is coming. For my last 6 years of active computing I have never gotten a virus, or had a computer problem. This is a big reason that I don't see what the big deal is with people being excited about apple computers. They supposedly do so much better at managing data and blah blah, but I have never really had problems. Oh well.
I guess my biggest problem currently is that I bought a new hard drive to back up what I currently had for a 13 day trip of photography. Well things went fine one the trip but now that I am coming home and trying to get the data off onto my back up drives things aren't so peachy. I can read the files and manipulate them, but I can't copy things on or off of it. Why? I am totally confused as to why. Argh! I just succeeded is getting all of my Yosemite pictures (except for about 25 of 7000) off the drive and so I can rest well in that category. But now I wonder can I do anything for the drive? Is it doomed forever? I am not understanding why some files became corrupt and others are fine. I am very frustrated.
Anyway, this issue with computers only adds to my frustration because I also am having trouble with itunes (a big reason I am not so excited about apple). For some reason it won't recognize the folder where the songs are supposed to be. Why? Who knows. Argh again. Above all this I am trying to do the statistical analysis on my thesis data and I don't understand a thing. About the statistics. I have some good people that can help me tomarrow, but that was a frustrating day trying to figure out what I am supposed to do with the data. I think that the program I have that does the data stuff is poor setup. Optimally will drive you crazy if you know what I mean!
Anyway, that is the story for now. I will see what happens tomorrow. I am headed home to go downtown and see what photographic things I may be able to find. Maybe there is something for me here in Vegas...probably not.
