These slightly pricey cans were purchased to take the place of wireless Beats in-the-ear headphones which become uncomfortable too quickly. Battery life is great, sound is good and callers say they hear me quite well. Comfort far exceeds the in-ear Beats. A "win" for me!
I would recommend this to a friend!

This USB 3 drive is very compact and light. I found the speed to be more than adequate for my needs. I am using this to do periodic Time Machine backups to my 12" Macbook.

I purchased this tv online and received it at home. Initial setup was easy enough, but I was not happy with the picture. I tried several of the preset options and finally settled on one. Even after fiddling with the settings, I could not get a picture that matched that of the other Vizio tvs I currently own or have owned. Ultimately, I returned this to my local Best Buy store.

The case fits well, is not bulky and actually complements the already great look of the white / silver iPhone 6+. While it affords moderate protection for the phone, it's best quality is the improved grip it gives. I tried another case which did much the same but opted for this one because of the overall appearance.

What's great about it: Small size
What's not so great: Nothing
I purchased this 11" Macbook Air for my son, who is starting college. This is replacing a 4 year old 13" MacBook Pro, which he gave to his girlfriend. According to him, it's the perfect size for in-class use, as well as being ultralight in his backpack.
This product is... A nice compact size, easy to set up

Can this be used to back up data on two different MacBooks?
I would like to back up data on my MacBook Pro and my son's MacBook Air. Can I do that with just one unit (assuming of course I don't exceed 1TB)? Or do I need two of these?
You should be able to do this. Ideally, you would use Disk Utility to partition the drive into two logical drives. You can make one partition larger than the other if desired. Then select the appropriate partition with each Time Machine utility.

Can I transfer info on an SD card to drive?
I downloaded the installer.dmg and it doesn't seem to allow me to add my SD content to the drive.
Probably not directly. You would need to use your computer as an intermediary.

How can I store photos on Seagate Backup Plus Portable Drive
I want to store"Aperture" Libraries on the Seagate Drive
This drive should be adequate for Aperture Library storage. Simply plug in the drive, open the window for the drive, open the "Pictures" folder on your Mac, look for the Aperture Library and drag it into the drive's window. This will copy the library to the drive. Then, double-click the library from the drive window. This should launch Aperture and tie the new location to the application.

Will this drive operate with Win 10?
Most USB drives can be reformatted for use on other platforms. You would need to do the reformat to have it work with Windows. There are many similar products which are formatted out of the box specifically for Windows, so this would not be the ideal product for you.

Mac OSX 10.75...
is this external hard drive with USB connections....compatible with my mac? I was told to ask if it uses the 'old' USB connection or the 'new' USB connection. My Mack is about 4-5 years old.
I believe this drive is backward-compatible with older USB 2.0 Macs. (On the package it is described as USB 2.0/3.0.

Can this be used to access a HD removed from a MBP?
Does this open up to insert a HD?! I purchased it intending to back up files from my new MBP (10.10.4 running Yosemite) as well as access another HD from my previous MBP (10.6.8 running Snow Leopard). Awhile back I had a HD fail on a previous MBP of mine and I purchased an external HD to encase a new HD--I don't see that this one opens up though (to insert the HD)... or does it and I just can't figure it out?! THX
I do not believe this will permit end-user drive swaps. It is not designed for this (my observation only.) There are probably other products better suited to your needs. This is what it is: a compact 1TB USB drive.
