Trace's Computer Place

A place to find questions, answers and just stuff I learn from being such a computer geek!  I really like computers and figuring things out and I adore helping!  So ask away...

Today's thoughts on December 22, 2010: Not a creature was stirring not even my mouse? That’s right! Every time I point & click? It squeaks. I hear a curse, but don’t see a cursor. My mouse? Has a fancy pad, matching rug, scrolls, a ball & 2 clicks to hang with. I take care of it & there are no strings attached, so you’d think it’d behave & control the cur...sor. I told it to get the LED out! It got the point…duh? It’s a pointer? PIMP LOL   and part 2: Computers, Clocks & Cursors. At home & work, we're on computers...we're on a clock & we all have our moments when things hit us in the face & we get tic’d. Face it, we work for God. If we have that work ethic, whether paid or not, whether the boss or not, we serve with excellence, hands down, right? If you get tic’d, toc to God. He’s the Keeper of our clock! Remember, only 1 cursor per computer. I’m clocking out now!


Today's facts on December 2, 2010:  Been working on a video project for a cover of Jesus, Lover Of My Soul...by Hillsong.  We did a blues version and I did about 14 videos...then converted the clips.  Some of the clips kept hanging up and wouldn't allow my video to save or render to the computer.  I blogged at every tech site around and did all the fixes and everything.  Then, due to sickness and life stresses, I had to take a break for a week or two.  But, my mind didn't...so, today, I got to thinking about converting the files to a different format like .avi.  So, that's what I did...  Of course, praying yesterday with Debi about it...was the main thing...that's what got my hopes back up and confidence in thinking and trying again.  I thought I had tried everything out there.  I had!  There was just something else in here...my heart...prayer...which led to something more in my mind from God.  Sometimes, we forget that we have a direct line to answers if we just take the time and ask.  I had gotten so down and hurt about so many things, that I was tired and just had to take a break.  When my friend, Debi asked to stop by, I just wanted to say no and hide...not because of her...ME!  But, I felt God's nudging...like I always do.  And I know a nudge means I must budge!!  So, Debi came and we talked and prayed and like I knew when I was a little girl, I knew Someone more powerful was listening.  So, if you are having computer problems or just need an envouraging word, write me or comment or follow me here.  I love computers and love to help.  If I can't answer, I will find the answer.  This latest answer took 4 weeks of investigating and trying everything...  Remember...use your mind...but mind your use of prayer.  Use it often!  Trace

  3. I have such poor computer skills. I can email /YouTube/ and fb ... but that's about it. I want to learn how to edit video. I have hours and hours of video ( me and the georgia boys play'n old songs) and the music files. But putting them together - I just make an unusable mess. Everything I have on YouTube was edited by my daughter, but she's now in LA :( -tom
