Oh ok....I appreciate it! I dont have cloud External HD's. Just regular ones.

Hello.. I was wondering...I send links of files thru Google Drive, One Drive etc but can I just create a hyperlink of those same files that are on my External HD myself and send that link via email and cut out Google, Microsoft. Lets say I want to send an mp3 file link over email so someone...

Got the NordVPN working now. It appears I have everything up and running with Linux now. I want to thank every one for the assistance!! Much appreciated.

Ill tackle the VPN soon. Thanks for the input. Ive had Linux Lite for a few days now. Ive settled into my work groove. Got the desktop looking how I want it. Got the browser how I want it. Got the new printer working great and got Plex all up and running. Added the FF bookmarks that I use...

Im ok with it...There are times I need to print 8.5x11 which the label printer just doesnt do and this HP printer was dirt cheap at $25. Thanks everyone for the help. Plex is working...Printer is working. Anyone using a VPN? Like I said a cpl days ago...with MAC and Windows, NordVPN was just...

If nothing else...I am flexible. I just went and bought a HP Printer on sale for $25. Working in less than 5 min. lol. Ill just sell the label printers..No biggee. If I remember right, that Brother QL-700 was even a pain to set up on Windows so I know it would be horrible on Linux.

I followed all of the steps above for the printer. Downloaded the .deb's and it did put ql-700 printer in my list of printers with all the right settings but when I went to print something, the light on the printer went from green to red. I guess thats progress. Im still working on it.

I just revised an old thread yesterday. Needed all the help I could get. https://forums.plex.tv/t/trying-to-setup-new-server-there-are-no-items-in-this-library/233353/24

I will tackle the printer tomorrow. Finishing up moving my Plex library now. It is pretty large. When I told the Plex forums that I found the solution, I was told “Sorry, that’s not how it’s done. mounting in /media means all files in that area are exclusive-access to your username when...

Here we go guys....I did it right after I found this post. Here is a picture. I just plugged my information in instead of "linuxbabe" and it worked in like a minute!! And super easy. Plex is now working....Printer is up next. lol

I want to thank everyone for their patience. Linux seems to be a great community so far. Cuddling a noob is a pain I know. lol I got rid of Windows bc between Microsoft and Dell putting their junk all over it, it's a bloated mess that takes your ram and your storage space. Now with Linux, I...

Another link lol. I’ll have to read it another time. I have to get this stuff working soon. I have jobs to print out in the morning.

No offense...but Ive been on this computer since last night trying to figure all this out. Ive seen all of these links and read all the info. Still not getting it. From a person totally new to Linux....some of this stuff is pretty tough. I guess I took it for granted on mac and windows that...

ive been working all day on 2 things...the damn Plex server and my Brother QL-700 Label Printer. Cant get either of them to work!! All Day I tell you. Frustrating is an understatement. Ive put the VPN situation on the backburner until I get these 2 things figured out. I have my dual 8TB...

Now Im stuck on the Plex Media Server. lol. From looking at the Plex forums, apparently I have to change permissions for Plex to read the files from hard drives? I guess Linux handles permissions a little differently than Windows and Mac?

I already saw that earlier. I’m still working on it lol.

Ok..So I tried Lite out for a few hours yesterday and loved it so I went in head first. I installed it...deleted Windows 10 and here are my first impressions..... 1) It is LIGHTER than Windows 10. With Windows 10, I started out w/ 256gb of ssd storage and the operating system and junk only...

I figured it out. Had to go in and change legacy boot and other options in the bios

I have been trying to put Linux Lite on my Dell computer for hours. Having NO luck at all. I downloaded the ISO file from the Lite site. Then I used Rufus after trying for hours to tinker with etcher, lili USB Creator etc. Then looked up some steps on how to put it on a Dell...restarting...

I’ve looked at Lite and I’m liking it so far!
