I had the extreme good fortune to contact Michael @Working Computers today seeking help for my Mac computer which was completely frozen up due to an online virus scam. He explained that he normally did not work with Macs but instead of dismissing me with that comment he took interest in my situation and ask me for information about the problem. I provided what information I could and he took it from there. With that minimal information and a bit of research he got back to me within a short period of time with a proposed plan as how to proceed. (At this point I want to establish that I am 80.5 years old and my abilities/expertise with computers is pretty much limited with just being able to spell the word.) So, with great patience over the phone he guided me thru every step/key stroke necessary to implement his plan. Somehow I managed to follow the steps/functions and within a very few minutes he had guided me thru the proposed solution. I was able to completely reinstall my operating system, the computer is no longer frozen up, operating like a new machine, and without loss of any files as best I can tell.
I could not be more impressed/appreciative of his willingness to assist me with this issue, his ability to find a proposed solution, talk me thru the steps, and to followup to make sure we succeeded, which we(he) certainly did! Should you find yourself in need of someone with impressive computer skills/knowledge/experience and a sincere interest in solving/resolving your issue, I strongly recommend you give Michale a try @Working Computers. I suspect you will be glad you did so! read more
