Having spent the best part of 40 years looking through a viewfinder of a stills or video camera, sitting in front of a computer editing photos or videos, producing websites and managing content and social media accounts for organisations or individuals, it’s a very strange feeling to now say “I’m retired".

Despite no longer taking on commercial paid work, it’s virtually impossible to suddenly stop what you’ve been doing for the best part of your working life so, for the past few years I’ve been taking on work on a ‘pro-bono’ basis for church, charity or voluntary organisations. I hope that my experience, skills and equipment can now be put to good use by those who perhaps, don’t have the budget or funding to produce what they want or need for their media requirements.

I killed my Mac! (Part 2)

Stacks Image 402
I was determined to find the problem with my Mac, to be honest, after all we’d been through over 12 years I owed it that much!

DosDude to the rescue again, I downloaded the High Sierra patch, installed it on a USB drive, and used the patch to download High Sierra. I booted from the USB, opened Disk Utilities and re-formatted the HD, then installed High Sierra.

With HS installed, I swapped the 1Gb GFX back to the 3Gb Metal GFX card to prove it was either faulty or working - it was working! So, leave the 3Gb card in, download DosDudes Mojave Patch and Mojave Installer, then disk Utilities, Format and then install Mojave.

I killed my Mac! (Part 1)

Stacks Image 418
Just lost a very dear friend I’ve had since 2010. I remember finding it on eBay and driving over 100 miles to collect it. It ran my Final Cut Pro version 6 and 7 till 2015 when I bought a later model and upgraded it. Eventually, it found it’s way to becoming a ‘reserve’ Mac and over time, until late 2021, it went through various upgrades and configurations (including a processor upgrade) and it never let me down. It had started as a Mac 4.1, I upgraded it’s firmware to a 5.1, bought a 3Gb Metal GFX card and used DosDudes patch to install Mojave on it.
