Are you one of the millions who received a Flip video camera as a gift over the holidays? If you are, what are you doing with it now? Have you taken a bunch of really great, short video clips with it? I bet you’re looking at them either on the small screen of the camera [...]
I get this question a lot – I have an external hard drive that is NTFS formatted (Windows format), and I want to reformat it for my Mac (HFS). How do I do that? And you know what? It’s not nearly as easy as it should be! There is one trick to it that is [...]
