Thanks Brick. Got it. Cheers

Many thanks, Jas. Boy, I am sure learning a lot about all this. Cheers

OK but, 'What I cannot see in Pix at all are any photos taken by my wife and sent to me on her Mobile via What's App or her Messenger App. They are there, I can see them on my phone.' So if I can't see them in Pix then there is nothing to drag and drop. This is my problem

My Phone is an Oppo A53. PC is Linux Mint 21.3 Cinnamon 6.0.4, 5.15.0-107-generic. I would like to transfer/import my phone photos to my Desktop PC. I am using Pix and it works well except some (mostly older) photos that I have taken on my phone do not show up on Pix. On connection my phone has...

Yes. There is a lot to think about. In the end I bought a simple, cheap and cheerful usb mic - Samson Meteor condenser Microphone Analogue - and it all works great. Just plugged it in and away it went. I opted for a mic that didn't need any drivers. Apparently only the cheap ones don't come with...

Excellent Jas. Thank you. Cheers John

Great. Is there some advantage re USB type mic compared to a mic that plugs directly into a sound card access. I am thinking for Mint to recognise the mic

Greetings. Preamble: I am looking for a microphone for my PC. Linux Mint 21.3 Cinnamon 6.0.4. I would like to record my voice over when using SimpleScreenRecorder. I have looked at various Linux (Minty and otherwise) forums that seem filled with problems, problems, problems regarding recognizing...

Got it. Cheers

What's the diff between 'Restart Cinnamon' via the Panel/Troubleshoot and 'Restart' via Menu? When would or should I use one and not the other? Cheers

Thanks for that. Cheers
