Print your Google Calendar!

Print or create a PDF of your Google Calendar!

Something new to me - the ability to print out or save various views of my Google calendar or agenda!

Here's how:

1. Go to the calendar you want to print or save
2. Click on MORE and Print
3. You will automatically be in Print Preview and you can make adjustments as needed
4. If you'd like to convert your view to a PDF, click on Save As

*Note: I needed to expand the window to full size in Chrome to see the Save As option on the bottom right corner

I love being able to print out specific calendars and agenda in Google! Sometimes being able to hand a calendar page to a colleague, print out my personal calendar or having the ability to write notes on the week's work agenda is helpful!

iPad Screen Shots and Photo Sharing

How can I share a screenshot with my iPad?

It's surprising how many people don't realize how easy it is to take and share a screenshot with their iPad! Try it out!

Take a screenshot Share your image

Press and release the Sleep/Wake button at the top right of your iPad and the Home button at the same time. You’ll see the screen ‘flash’ white and hear a camera ‘clicking’ sound. Now open the Photos app on your iPad. The screenshot is added to your Camera Roll album. Tap the thumbnail to view the screenshot.  Tap the Share button (arrow) at the top left of your screen. A window will open up where to can choose email, Twitter, print, Facebook, etc. Tap the appropriate icon to share or post online.

Gmail Tip: Signing out of all Sessions

I'm not sure if I signed out from that other computer on campus! Help!

Normally, if you want to sign out of Gmail or Google Apps, it's just a matter of clicking on your email address in the top right of your screen and selecting Sign out.

But what if you have been on more than one computer and one of them was in a public location like on campus or in a library? What if you closed the browser but later realized you forgot to sign out of Gmail or other Google accounts? 

To sign out of all sessions go to any computer with an internet connection and do the following:

1. Open your Gmail account and click on the Details link at the bottom of your screen.
 
2. Choose to Sign out of all other sessions (it will leave you logged in your Google account on the current computer only).
