Question from Melvin: I have a “health and wellness” blog that I’ve been writing for over four years now. It runs on WordPress.
I write several new posts each week and the blog now has over a thousand posts on it.
About a month ago I paid a guy to make some updates to the blog to make it more attractive and add a couple of new features that I’d seen on other blogs.
With my permission he ended up changing the blog to a new theme (Divi). Now I have a big problem that I hope you can help me with.

Question from Kellie: I dropped my three year old iPhone 7 Plus and cracked the screen.
The phone still works but parts of the screen are unreadable.

My question is how can I copy the photos I’ve taken with the iPhone onto a Lenovo laptop that has Windows 10 on it?
Back in September 2020 I wrote about how SpaceX’s Starlink satellite Internet service would soon be providing 1Gbps download speeds to anyone on planet Earth.
