Re: Pittsburgh
45-50 years ago, my then wife got into a graduate program at Carnegie Mellon, I was working in the D.C. area. She came home some weekends, I drove to Pittsburgh some weekends. So, I did spend quite a bit of time there over several years. But I must say I never really payed attention to the city itself, it was just another urban area. I was very pleased to see the city now through Rick’s eyes. I need to go back through old slides and see if I even did any photography there.

Re: OT Mac help
You may wish to check your energy savings settings on your new iMac, to see if you have the external drives set to sleep when not in use. It could be, depending on the drive, that they go to sleep and vanish from the sidebar. As always, if you change a setting, restarting the computer is the next step.

Re: OT Mac help
Hi Dave, You might have a format problem with the older drives. If there’s enough free space on one to hold all the files, you might want to move them over and reformat the empty drive. Then, repeat with the other drive. Or simply by a hard rive of 2T or more and move the files to that drive, then reformat the empty drives.
