Tech Tips for Non-Technical People

Non-technical people need tech tips, too! Here are some of my favorite tricks for making the most out of online resources and technology. Have a question? Fill out the suggestion form below and I might create a tip just for you.

Take out the Trash

Take out the Trash

Running out of hard drive space on your computer? Don’t forget to empty your trash! Mac users: Go to the Dock (the bar at the bottom of your screen), click on the Trash icon and choose Empty Trash. PC users: Find the Recycle Bin on your desktop. Right-click and choose Empty Recycle Bin. Remember, you cannot get these files back, so it doesn’t hurt to check what’s in the trash first. Just double-click on the icon to see what’s inside.
