Our YouTube Channel Has Your Answers!

Our YouTube Channel Has Your Answers!

 

  • The power is off and not expected to be back on for over 24 hours AND my iPhone is almost out of juice!!! How can I avoid this situation in the future?
  • What does HDR on my phone’s camera screen mean?
  • How can I use FaceTime to stay connected to my family?
  • I have a hankering for egg rolls–bought the wrappers–now what?

All of us have questions about various functions of our digital devices at one time or another. BoomerTECH Adventures’ YouTube channel just may have your answer and thus ought to be the first place you check.

Chris, Ed, and Jill are all former middle school educators and used to teaching processes to folks with varied learning preferences.  Therefore our videos are full of visuals with clear, concise, and easy to follow steps. Plus, the advantage of a video is that you can stop and replay any section you want as many times as you want.  Here’s a fun example.  During the shelter-in-place directives of the COVID-19 outbreak, BoomerTECH Adventures is doing Facebook Live segments. Chris often shares tasty cooking tips.  If you still have a yearning for the egg rolls mentioned above, watch this video.

Our channel is pretty easy to navigate.

 

Notice in the middle of the image above there is menu: Home-Videos-Playlists, plus others.  These three headings are the ones you will use the most.

Home: This screen contains introductory information.

Videos: Here you will find all of our videos.

 

Playlists: This screen is probably the most useful because it categorizes the videos into general topics. You can see some of the categories in the image below.

When you tap or click on a playlist, a list of the specific videos available pops up. The playlist below is labeled iPhone/iPad 101 (Basics).

 

The search icon helps you pinpoint which videos will answer the exact question you are asking. In the image below, I searched for Chargers (right-hand side/middle).

 

The first video displayed in the image above answers the question how to prepare for a power outage, especially if your iPhone is your only connection to the outside world.  And…here’s the answer.

 

 

Would you like to have the answer to the other two questions in the post’s intro?

What is HDR?

 

Ways to use FaceTime to stay connected with family and friends?

BoomerTECH Adventures YouTube channel is free and easy to access.  Many of your questions related to your Apple digital devices are answered there. If there is a topic you would like to see covered in a video, please leave us a comment!

Digitize Old Recipes–Part 1

    I have a question. With everyone using Zoom and Facetime, does anyone know of a good tripod or stand for an iPadPro 12.9”? It’s awfully difficult to hold it upright, because my tablet slants backwards on it’s Apple Smart Keyboard which is what I use.

    The weight of it seems to go against most of the other neat Selfie Sticks (with stands) that I’m seeing everywhere.

      Linda,

      What a great question, especially now with folks spending more time on their devices. I have a stand that goes over my knees so I can use it in a chair or if I am reading in bed. However, it wouldn’t work with a key board. My initial thought was it possible to set it on a table with books supporting the tablet? But I kept thinking…I wonder if a portable computer stand would work for you? Examples I found: https://tinyurl.com/tgd3r24 and https://tinyurl.com/rl923o8
      But they are probably bigger than you want.

      However, you mentioned the screen leans backward, so I then wondered if something like this might work? https://tinyurl.com/yx7oxvbk

      I’ll check with Chris and Ed and see if they have any ideas.

      Linda,

      Just saw this stand: https://summerde.com/products/bracket?fbclid=IwAR14RojkeLYeLvqhLBT-9__ckIinya3YsPz3NApFgIY5efnEJEXmnSVLDmY

      Would it work if your keyboard was detached and flat on a surface?
