"yuns" Are you from the Pittsburgh area? I grew up there, and haven't heard "yuns" since then.

East Tennessee. I guess I picked up of few sayings from my mother. Her family is from what they call Overhome. Mountain talk I guess. That’s probably why I don’t have a very good vocabulary and can’t put together the good posts on the forum. :lol: Funny thing is my sister has an English Major. She writes and proof reads documents.

By the time he sends the comment to his sister for proofing and gets a reply, five or six other people will have responded to the post and his comment would no longer relevant. Being married to a woman from the Ozarks (southern Missouri just a little north of Arkansas line), I had to learn how to interpret hillbilly into English. :lol: :lol:

Still waiting on my sleep study results to come back. Friday 29th will be two weeks so maybe hear something the following Monday or Tuesday. Another problem I have is I have a IPad . It doesn’t seem to be able to run Oscar from my research. I can as a last resort be able to use my beloved’s Mac Book. Any suggestions?

might be more trouble than it's worth, but you could use oscar on whoever's computer, then transfer the screenshots it generates over to ipad in order to upload here.

Don’t have much computer knowledge but I like to join in and be part of the game. From Sleepfiles website it says for Mac 10.12+. Of course I don’t know what that means but my wife has a Mac Book. It might be several years old now.

I am a user not particularly knowledgeable, but - open up the mac, click on the little apple figure (upper left corner of screen), click the: About This Mac and check out which Version. Mine is 11.1. If your wife's is at or above 10.12 you should be good to go.

If I am wrong someone will surely let us know. Guaranteed. :wink:

Sure not a problem. I am pretty new here too. Diagnosed 2 years ago and using CPAP for about 3 months. Yes, I failed my first CPAP therapy. 😕. Symptoms got worse over these two years and decided to try again. This time with better results, so far. Lol. The people here have helped tremendously with all the challenges of CPAP therapy. Too bad I didn’t find this forum 2 years ago. 😎😎😎
