Lost iPhone

goodbye... my stolen phone connected to a network and was erased.

Good to know. Remember , if you carry valuable information on your phone (which many of us do)

make sure you protect your data, not

just your phone.  thanks for the good news Apple.

Mac Docky Dock

My Macs don't always reveal the dock when I want to see it. I also don't want to see the dock all the time. No, I don't mean a doctor...

I prefer keeping the dock hidden and only seeing it when I roll over it. Since that doesn't happen, I can become frustrated, infuriated, and need less caffeine. 

So being the brite boy I am, I found a shortcut combo -
Function + Control + F3

and voila, my dock reveals itself in all its splendor and I can use the Arrow Keys to move around and act like I'm using the Right Click.

Mac Security Update

Apple released a very important security update for the Mac which is recommended for everyone running High Sierra, the latest macOS.

Your Mac will probably tell you automatically to run the update, but if not or you prefer to do it manually, now, then goto the App store > Updates

Simple Note:
Bad people can do bad things if they have access to your Mac running High Sierra.

Flash Out of Date

No joke...

I tend to use Google's Chrome when I run Flash instead of Safari. But when will this ever go away? Hard to believe I went to a website that used Flash on the Home page.
