Setting up devices
New technology often stays in the box for weeks because setting it up feels daunting. This category tackles exactly that hurdle: getting a computer, laptop or tablet running, setting up printers and scanners, transferring a smartphone and taking old data along, organising accounts and passwords, freeing up storage, understanding updates.
