Coming home... by marlboromaam

Coming home...

Good news! I can pick up my iMac tomorrow (Friday, June 22). They put in a new hard drive and were able to recover from the old one, but how much - they aren't sure. Will be up to me to see what was recovered when I get it home and hooked up to the external drive. Gotta back up what Carbonite won't back up which is a lot, actually... found out much to my disappointment.
Good news! Lovely shot!

Good news, Maggie! Yippee! I also have Carbonite and according to my computer and them, all my files & everything else is backed up. Now I need to worry. I just renewed with them for another year. What didn't they back up?

@paulien Thank you, Paulien!

@maggiemae Me, neither! Thank you, Maggiemae!

@sassik Appreciate your comments! Thank you, Sassik!

@redrucksack You're right, Eva! Thank you so much!

@cimes1 Thank you, Carole! Will have my work cut out for me when I get home with it! From what I pulled up last week, it doesn't back up movies, documents and software download files. I'll have to pull that back up again and give you the link. Give me a little time. I remember you have to manually add those items and I did not do that!

@phil_howcroft Thank you, Phil! Will be good to get things back to some norm around here. LOL! I call him, "Fred!"

@kerristephens Thank you very much, Kerri!

Great news. I imagine you are very excited! Happy for you.

That is good news!! Lets hope they were able to recover every bit and byte!!
June 21st, 2012  
Hmmm, doesn't sound like Carbonite lived up to the hype. Oh well, glad you are getting your baby back and all will be right in the universe once more.
June 21st, 2012  
happy for you Maggie, hope you didn't loose anything !
btw, love the WHITE of the cloud
June 21st, 2012  
Welcome home, iMac!! You'll soon be back in the groove again, girlfriend. I thought that Carbonite was supposed to be pretty good too. I hope that you can recover everything. OR maybe all wasn't lost. Good luck!! Oh and love the pov and the color tones of this photo...no place like home, is there?!!
June 22nd, 2012  
So happy for you! I would hate to be without my computer. Well I could use my husbands but it's just not the same.

I love this shot of the the bright white cloud over the house. Very nice.

@hagscat Thank you, Carin! Really appreciate the crossed fingers!!!

@aslessknownsu Grateful for your wonderful comments, Susan! Thank you and thank you for the crossed fingers, too!

@anazad511 Thank you so much, Ana!

@skipt07 That would be the best possible outcome! Thank you so much, Skip!

@cromwell My fault, Cromwell! I should've double checked what Carbonite was NOT backing up and manually added those things. Thank you! Will be good to have Fred back home!

@cocobella Appreciate your lovely comments, Corinne! Thank you so much!

@karenann Hope so, Karen! Carbonite is good, but you have to manually select some things for it to back up. I didn't do that! Thank you for your lovely comments, gal! Most appreciated!

@camisze Thank you so much, Cathy! Appreciate your sweet remarks about my pic and my iMac! xo
