9 Great Tech Tips from Call That Girl

1. Test different laptops in the store before buying one online
2. Updates can be found in the lower right corner of your screen in the system tray
3. If your phone gets wet, turn it off and pull the battery out immediately! Turn it upside-down and place in rice to absorb the moisture.
4. More often than not, Googling and doing a repair on your electronics yourself only costs more in the end.
5. Your Outlook email files are saved in a hidden PST file on your computer that CAN be recovered, transferred and backed up.
6. Most people keep very important and private information on their computers, so put a password on your computer for a little extra protection!
7. Macs can in fact get viruses, so use caution on certain sites and links.
8. Do the updates on your computer regularly, and not just your anti-virus! Viruses can sneak through outdated programs such as Java.
9. If your cursor seems to jump around the screen a lot and messes up the document you are working on while typing on your laptop, your wrist may be bumping the mouse pad. Turn it off if you don’t use it.
