My iMac is ready for collection. I’ve had the 1TB Fusion drive replaced with a 1TB SSD. Might make it tomorrow but have a lot of driving to do. More likely Friday pickup.

Some would argue the 17-in is to big to be portable…

Antti Martikainen playlist of 13 albums set up on my iPod Touch for tomorrow’s trip. That’s more than enough for a different track on both legs of the trip.

Now, I could used the app on the big iPad but that would require me to use a different account. In December of 2019 I ceased my involvement with a PC user group as the co-convenor of a combined PC & Mac User Group info session held each month. But on their Microsoft system, I’m still associated with the now-defunct interest group and can log into its Microsoft account.

I could do that but won’t as it’s unethical.

Blurb from app store on my iPad:
“Microsoft Office is now available on iPad: We're combining the Word, Excel, and
PowerPoint apps you know into a single, iPadOS-optimised app. Plus, you'll
see additional tools to keep you more productive than ever. For example,
you'll be able to quickly create and sign PDFs, and transform pictures into
documents.

Get to Image-based Workflows Readily: Tap 'Share' in the phone gallery
outside the Office app, to get to several actions like Create PPT, Create PDF
and more. In addition, if there are any recent screenshots when you open
the Office app, these are surfaced as a suggestion to covert to PDF or PPT.

Insert date, shape, image and notes in PDF: Now you can easily insert date,
shape, image and notes in PDFs using new capabilities.”

On devices with a screen less than 10.1 inches, all that’s required in order to perform edits is a free Microsoft account. But on larger screens, you’ll need a 365 subscription or account.

I tried the app on my 10.2 in iPad 8 and my 7.9 in iPad Mini & can attest to these requirements. Ergo, the app is on my iPad Mini but not on the big one.

Got a neat way to download YouTube videos & other downloadable stuff on iOS/iPadOS: set the Insight web browser as the default. Whenver something downloadable is encountered, a Download tab will appear near the top left corner of the window .This is a very interesting browser because of the extensive range of extensions, many of which are built-in.
