No good deed goes unpunished

Have you ever heard that expression before, it often rings true!

My computer was having some problems, so I backed up everything and asked Pete to reformat it for me. He kindly did so and all seemed well. I put all the documents and photos back onto my new clean computer, all the music too.

Then I looked on the applications list for iphoto (the program I use the most, and love and use and love and use...) I think you get the picture, it wasn't there!!!!!

When I bought this computer it came with iphoto as a bonus, when you reformat it you loose iphoto, neither of us knew this. I am very sad.

So now I can't even manipulate my photos, no red eye fixing, no cropping, no nothing, all I can do is upload them onto my computer and rotate them. Woe is me.

I can buy iphoto of course, but can't do that at the moment. So for now, I think my blogging will take a back seat, as will my photo taking because there is not much I can do with them.

Aw, sorry that happened, that sucks. Please don't put your photo taking on hold! You can edit the pictures later but you can't go back and recreate and recapture the memories. Just keep shooting, even if you can't do anything with the pictures than back them up for a while.

What a blow! Sorry love. It's miserable when this sort of thing happens. There is a way around this obstacle - there always is - it may take a while to find it though... I'll enjoy your word-entries in the meantime.
