Saving video from iPhone 13 to PC
I used to be able to view any saved videos on my PC that I took on my iPhone (I just clicked on them, and they rolled). However, recently, if I save a video, I can no longer view it, I get a message saying "HEVC video extension is required to display this file". I can still play previously saved videos, this just occurs on…

Apple USB to USB C Adapter not working?
I bought a USB to USB C adapter to use along with a SanDisk flash drive in order to back up my photos from my iPhone 15. But the SanDisk app doesn‘t recognise when the adapter in inserted in to the iPhone. The flash disk works fine when inserted directly in to a computer. So that can’t be the issue. I bought an Anker…

Facebook lurking!
Hi - Confession! I've lurked on a particular person's profile out of curiosity on Facebook. I don't use it to communicate socially with people (I'm anti-social :D ), I just use it occasionally to look at other Facebook stuff whereby you need an account to do so. Anyway, I noticed that I had a friend suggestion from this…

Printers!
My cheap Epson XP 4205 is printing blank. I tried everything. I'm really tired of cheap printers with expensive ink that do not last a year. I'm willing to spend £200 max but not sure whether to go for a laser or a tank? I need cheap running costs. I'm not a huge printer (printerer?) but it goes in phases. Recommendations?
