Backup & Sync: The ridiculous steps you need to move the Google Drive from the C: drive to the D: drive

Posted by jpluimers on 2018/04/27

Unlike for instance DropBox, Google Backup & Sync does not allow you do move the Google Drive location in a one-step way. You have to go through below ridiculous steps to move it around yourself.

More old Apple documentation

I expect few people to still have a functioning Apple LaserWriter Pro as – despite them bing very solid devices – having them last for almost 25 years is quite a feat.

But I do know many people have machines from the Apple II through Macintosh II era, and that’s what the first manual is about. Some of the contents:
