PMUG Tuesday night Clinic

Drop in for help with your questions. This is normally hands-on for individual problems so you can bring your portable computer. The Clinic meets in alternate locations, either The Mac Store or Powell's Technical Books, so be sure to check the PMUG calendar for this week's location.


PMUG College

Summer Break starts early due to a lack of people signing up for classes. We will not be having the Thursday classes until September. Check Mouse Tracks or the PMUG website for details on Fall Classes. If you need help with Macintosh questions during the summer, come to one of the Tuesday Clinics.

PMUG CAN HELP!

The Portland Macintosh Users Group is a not-for-profit organization dedicated to the education and support of its members. Through the exchange of knowledge and experience we offer personal support to owners of the newest Apple desktop and laptop computers running OSX and older Macs using OS8&9.

During our meetings, classes (many are free) and special Interest Groups members learn about computer setup, operation and maintenance. We also share information about a broad range of shareware and commercial software.

PMUG College offers a monthly series of classes from basic to advanced that are designed to help members get the most from their hardware and software.

In our classes and seminars you'll learn how to successfully use CD and DVD burners, printers, digital still and video cameras,, modems and other equipment.

Twice a year PMUG presents MacCamp, a weekend retreat in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains at Silver Falls State Park. In the parks meeting halls expert instructors teach classes on the Macintosh Operating Systems, networking, graphics, web site design, video editing and a variety of other topics.

Mac Love, Not War

Mobile Meh
In summer of 2008 Apple announced that it would integrate various web services with the iPhone under the brand name "Mobile Me." Existing "dot Mac" (.Mac) customers were migrated in what was billed as "Exchange for the rest of us," but it didn't go well. Synchronization that that worked well...

iPhone news story shot, well, with an iPhone!
Not bad press, and the quality was decent, too! News segment filmed with iPhone 3GS (Thanks Andy)

Charles DeVore's Weblog

Remember that summer is coming up and as the temperture goes up on the outside it also goes up on the inside of your computer. Heat is not your computers friend so try to keep it cool. Make sure your computer is in a well ventilated area if possible. Be sure portables are not on a surface that allows heat to build up and please keep it out of direct sunlight. «details»
