Article - With Storms Increasing, Protect Your Tech Gear from Damaging Power Fluctuations:

How can you protect your tech gear from unexpected power fluctuations? A UPS is best in some scenarios, but a not-too-old surge protector is often sufficient. You can also let your Apple chargers do their job without worrying about what they are plugged into.

Erase Image Content in Preview with Copied Color Blocks:

Apple’s Preview is a surprisingly capable graphics editor for making quick changes to screenshots and other illustrations, but it lacks a built-in way to delete content while leaving the background. Here’s the workaround—select a rectangle of the background color, copy it, paste it, and then move it over the undesirable content—as shown in the After screenshot below, where blue selection dots denote the pasted box. As you resize the box, press Shift to prevent it from resizing proportionally, which helps you make it the shape you want. If you need a second box of the same color, Option-drag the first box to copy it. When you save and close, your boxes will be merged into the image, permanently removing the content underneath, so make sure they’re in the right spot before moving on.

Have you ever dropped your phone in water and wondered what immediate action you could take to try to get it out? We had a company reach out to us recently about a cool tool they developed at the site www.wateroutphone.com. Here you can easily play a generated frequency that they claim is backed by research to expel the most water and dust out of a phone’s speakers. This may be a useful tool if small amounts of liquid or dust enter a phone’s speakers. However, if your iPhone takes a significant plunge, it is still best to bring it in to an authorized service provider like I.T. Worx to have a certified technician assess the damage.

Disclaimer: This company has reached out to us. We have not yet been able to test the validity of this tool.

Pro Tip...AppleCare+ is awesome for when your AirPods become acquainted with a car tire! If it does, give us a call so we can get that repair underway. And when AC+ isn’t a factor, I.T. Worx can help you replace individual components for less than the cost of buying an all new retail kit (We have new Retail boxes in stock as well!).
