Just wanted to thank you for your information on how to turn off the predictive text in Word. I've got a new computer and it was driving me bonkers!!! I found a button at the bottom of the work file which was supposed to turn it off but didn't and I tried all sorts of other things with Word which

Excellent level of knowledge in both Windows & Apple PCs. Responsive and very good communication skills. Highly recommended based on two years of use of his services.

David has been my go-to IT superhelper for many years now. He is extremely knowledgeable and patient with me and the problems I cause my laptop! With TeamViewer he is able to sort out whatever errors I have made and is willing to explain everything in a language I understand, not computer-speak! He will come up to North London when

David was absolutely brilliant. I've been tackling complex problems, and getting nowhere. Not only was he patient in explaining how thing worked, he would not be defeated by a number of issues that were not obvious and inherited from a previous system. I am one very happy customer and will highly recommend David to others around me.

What I like about David is not only does he solve the problem, but I learn at the same time.

Very useful help for an untrained computer user like me!

David has been endlessly patient, kind and understanding of my limitations in dealing with the difficulties of installing a new all-in-one to upgrade myself rather belatedly to Windows10. All done remotely thanks to covid-19 and I am most grateful.

Fantastic help and advice setting up a new laptop and transferring data from the old machine, as well as helping with iPhone storage and back-up issues. David is knowledgeable, patient and his dry wit certainly helped when trying to move 10,000 photos. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend his services.

Great service David, not just help and advice with buying, installing and trouble shooting my last three devices, but also logical and articulate explanations for what’s going on, so I’ve become better at fixing things myself. Also no tekky sneering at my quirky way of laying things out the way I like them. Very personalised help. Thanks. NP

Thank you very much, David, for coming to my aid over my "Sent Box".
It was very nice to see you again, and, as usual, you sorted out my computer problems in the most efficient and effective way possible. I shall definitely be recommending you to my friends and colleagues, Fleur

Thank you so much for your expert fixing of the images, text and stick. I was particularly impressed by your total professionalism including your thorough checking of everything that was done so that my mistakes could be corrected. You achieved a miracle in doing so much in so little time. The stick was sent off today by next-day delivery, all

.. thank you a zillion times for dropping everything that day and coming all the way to Thornton Heath to help get my 2 computers up and running. I was really stuck and panicing about what I could do (especially being housebound), but you came and saved the day (and my bacon because I had a report deadline to meet).

David was invaluable in gently steering a complete technophobe, using non-geek jargon, through the complexities of installing Skype, Adobe Flash, Mircosoft Word and much more besides!

For the last five or six years David has been an invaluable port-of-call for all my IT problems. Problems in the main caused by myself not fully understanding what I should and, more importantly, not do. Although automatic updates do cause me problems behind the scenes. He is always very willing to cross London to get to me but if

How's this for Service!! A few months ago, David re-setup my Windows Live Mail after it had been overtaken by a Win10 update. He managed to re-install Live Mail, and then took a photo on his mobile of the e-mail Settings. Very recently we had a totally unexpected power outage during a Win 10 update/upgrade with the result that I

David you are a star and a life saver, thank you so much for the work and effort you have put into getting my e mail back. Carole

Very good advice, and help. David sorted my problems and was most coherent in his answers. He made my problems go away and I'm most grateful for his assistance. I would thoroughly recommend.

David was a great help in quickly sorting out my PC issue caused by a Windows 10 update, virus and other issue. Even when my session ran over, he supported me to solve the final issues remotely. I lost no data and was up and running again within a day. Thanks, Richard

David was brilliant at sorting out a complete computer malfunction - caused by a failed Windows 10 update! He also offered a lot of useful advice and tips. He was hugely reassuring - and calming - at a time of great stress.

David kindly sorted out the transfer from an old to new laptop very efficiently. Lots of tips, recommendations and reassurance along the way. A refreshing no-jargon approach!

David retrieved my data when my computer imploded, gave me very useful advice about a replacement and an extremely useful tutorial. He was a great comfort in a worrying time. Anyone with questions or thinking of updating their systems would do well to consult him.

I have always found David to be helpful, knowledgable and professional in all aspects of his work.
He is relaible about contacting me and keeps apppointments.
He is also honest about what he can and can't ahcieve in a given time frame and I find this invauable.

David I have found to be extremely patient and helpful with any and all queries, no matter how seemingly trivial or simple, treating them and me with total respect and utter patience. His ability to communicate clearly and effectively is the hallmark of a great teacher, especially one who is so knowledgeable but does not 'talk down' to those whom

Very pleased with David's quick and efficient support. He has a natural empathy with clients and solved my upgrade issues in a clear, successful and cost effective way. Thoroughly recommended.

David's service is fast, professional and extremely helpful. He was able to pinpoint and resolve my issue within the hour. Running two businesses from my home, I would not hesitate to work with him again in future. My systems have been set up iteratively over many years but David was un-fazed by the convoluted set up; his approach was logical

David receives my unqualified endorsement for his prompt, attentive, patient and efficient attention to my computer needs. Full marks!

It is very reassuring to know that David is only a call or email away when a new techno challenge appears, accompanied by bewilderment and panic. He explains things simply, clearly and with great patience. He has the gift of teaching without making one feel stupid. We are so glad to have found him.

David, who has been emailing me his blogs for a number of years, visited me in my home by arrangement to advise on the purchase of a replacement laptop computer, and to instruct me, and improve my skills on a number of computer activities as requested by me. He displayed a deep knowledge of his subject, and skill and patience

I was really struggling to understand how to format photographs into word documents. I was asked at work to create visual guidelines for a manual and had no experience in this. David was amazing,, he certainly came to my rescue and helped me to learn this skill in half a day. I learnt so much with him in such short

For someone like me who is of a certain age and somewhat computer-phobic,I have always found David patient, extremely clear and he doesn't make me feel inadequate if I ask the most basic of questions! Moreover, he has very willingly guided me and at the other end of the phone when panic sets in......... which has been much appreciated. (K.K.)

I have been using David for our family's PC problems for over 5 years and value him and his services so much I even took him to New York with me (albeit 'remotely') when we relocated last year. Over the years he has not only cured all manner of ills that have happened to the computers within my household I

I have been using David for PC problems for some time. I have found him to provide a prompt service. David has a way of explaining the problem and the solution in easy to understand language. He is also able to solve some problems by remote access, using Team Viewer.

Faultless service. No nonsense approach, prompt and courteous, problem solved. An invaluable resource-provider and a name to add to the emergency address-list.

David Leonard is the man to go to for IT help and advice. His knowledge and prompt attention to problems is invaluable and his regular blogs on IT matters interesting and informative. I hold him in high esteem.

Completely brilliant. David always answers my panic calls swiftly and deals with my problems patiently and efficiently.

Always honest if he comes across something he has to look up and his charges are so reasonable. He has a great sense of humour; always on time, can deal with some problems without having to visit and is unfailingly courteous and kind.

Because of my secretarys stroke David was able to help me with Microsofts Word, Excel and scanning and machine translation of German documents. I had not acquired sufficient typing and clerical skills of making use of these programmes and these documents were confidential. David is proficient in computing,punctual,kind and considerate.S B SHAH B.Sc.Fellow of Institute of Chartered Accoutants and Institute

David always provides a prompt response to requests for help. He is very patient, thorough and helpful and I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone with a computer problem.

I had David's website in my "favourites" list for a long time just in case I needed assistance in the future. I'm jolly glad I did because he was such a help with advice regarding replacing my old desktop. Then installing it and setting up all the peripherals, all the time explaining what he was doing. Since then he has

I found the service prompt and he was able to help whilst I was in Italy in a mountain location,
he was able to access my computer from the UK.

I was very happy with the IT support and problems solved. David responded to my request speedily, was punctual, patient when explaining things to a novice like myself and I would always use his services.

David has been my go-to IT person for several years and provides a brilliant service. As a freelancer, I need to be always-on, and he makes sure I am!

David came to my 'rescue' a few times now. Always on time when visiting or returning a desperate call in timely manner, he is highly reliable and professional. A good name in any address book; I strongly recommend his services to anyone.

I would have no hesitation in recommending David to anyone who needs any kind of IT help and support. He explains things clearly and well, and decodes all those mysteries that confront an confuse non-techies like myself - and he even saves you money!

I found David on the internet and he offered a special rate for the 'silver surfer'. My mother was well into her 80's but wanting to be on-line and use email but I did not have the knowledge to problem-solve when she had major problems with her antiquated computer. David was INVALUABLE and travelled out to the fringe of Greater

I found David from the internet ! He never pretends that he knows more than he does, is balanced in all his assessments, understanding about those of us who aren't "techies", helpful and practical.
In a world that constantly promises, it is good to find someone who delivers.

David's IT help is always much appreciated. He is effective and thorough as well as instructive. I am pleased to recommend his computer support in London to others as a reasonable investment in home solutions. He is outstanding with organisation and mindful of security. A calm and careful professional.

I have had reason to get advice from David re-my new Apple iMac His help & valuable advice helped me so much. I had four or five lessons from David, & felt very confidant at the end to carry on myself.
I learned a lot from Him in them short few lessons. Feel great that I can always rely on

I came across Davids website a few years ago when I was fed up of being taken for a ride by a local IT company which I will not name. I get in touch with David regularly for advice and being a Silver Surfer he has always been very helpful in sorting my computer problems and not making me feel

It has been incredibly re assuring over several years now to know that - when needed - I have the support of David available. He has always given me sound advice and help - could not imagine what I'd do otherwise !

David has always responded to my IT problems most effectively and promptly.
I have not found a more helpful 'IT Support' and intend to continue using his excellent service.

Always very instructive and helpful

David has always been a great help when I encountered problems with my PC, even when this required extended time to install new systems and ensure that my online security was adequate for my needs.

I have had help with my computer before but David was the first to get to grips with my myriad problems while simultaneously explaining what he was doing and giving invaluable advice.

Three hours went by in a flash leaving me in a better world altogether as far as my PC is concerned.

Gratefully,

Robert Slotover

Dear David,

I have been happily emailing out and receiving in to the outlook set up enabling me to delete out duplicates and find all my society mail in the one place. It is wonderful and I am very grateful to you for sorting it.

I am a little computer savvy and seeing the stages and checks you made I

I was in the UK on a business trip and my laptop caught a very nasty virus. David came to my hotel and within a short period of time got everything cleared up and I was able to work again.

I can’t explain how grateful I am for his help.

David, once again, many, many thanks!

David was fantastic with the help and support his company offers. The session was tailored exactly to my requirements and I was able to use my work laptop to learn further IT functions.
Of all the IT consultants I contacted; not only was the price David offered very competitive, most companies did not offer the bespoke course that I was

Many thanks for your careful, sympathetic and thorough approach and action when you came to see me.

My laptop is working much better and at last I have a functioning printer.

I cannot thank David enough for setting up my new computer. In 2006 I had installed my old Dell Windows XP computer without any help and without any problems. However, on getting my new Dell Windows computer in 2014 I felt uneasy about attempting it again by myself, as everything to do with computers seems to have become more complicated

Hi David,

Peter was thrilled with the work you did on his computer, and feels very safe in your computer whizz hands. I will be in touch in the next few months arranging when he would next like to see you.

Thank you for coming

Nicky

I used to be an IBM programmer, then a computer network manager, and latterly taught computing (Word, Excel, etc) before the systems software side became far too complicated for me!

So with that background I can really appreciate David’s knowledge and skills, and I particularly take to his reasonable fees, that he works quickly but doesn’t rush, is friendly and

Hi david. This is just a quick txt 2 thank u sooo much for today, i dont think u realise jus how much it meant 2 me 2 b able 2 access my old apps especially as u no some of them contained very important information. Thanx you so much again. Till the nxt time, take care. Luv mel,

Having previously been on the receiving end of a patronising, and impatient, IT consultant and trainer, I found David’s approach very refreshing. His professional advice, and technical support, was delivered in a non-patronising manner, with great clarity - free from complicated jargon.

Having advised me that I needed a new router, and a more efficient and workable, internet connection, David

Thanks for all your efforts fixing my computer, even though inadvertently, I nearly sabotaged everything by turning a switch off, (which of course we won't mention) so without your help I would still be unable to continue my work with a local Resident's Association

Thanks again

I was very impressed with your teaching. You are one of the few computer experts I have met that can explain things simply to those of us that do our best to resist technology.

My feedback is all positive as what your consultancy provided me with was just what I needed after a hard disc crash - prompt, very helpful, courteous, non- patronising (you didn't make me feel stupid for not understanding terms and functions etc - you have no idea how important this is!) and available to provide follow-up assistance plus good value

David, my thanks once again. I will be delighted to be added to your list of very happy clients!

David has been a wonderful support for us and our computers over the years.

Recently my daughter's computer broke down in the middle of A-levels and he came straight over and sorted us out within a couple of hours which was a god-send.

He is totally reliable and very intelligent and also an interesting person to sit with over a

I am glad that I found you, you were superb.

Thank you so much for your help yesterday. And thank you for the information in the email below. Talk about good after-care! You are honest, trustworthy and totally professional. It was a pleasure to meet you.

I will certainly be recommending you to anyone I know who needs computer help. And equally I will be in touch again if I

I have known David Leonard for more than five years. Whenever I go completely mad with my computer and can't make it do what I want, need to upgrade, find out information or just need help, David has always been there for me.

Recently I decided to advertise with Google ............. in 25 years of running my own therapy practice

David has always been extremely helpful in solving any problems we have encountered. For two professionals working for themselves, dependent on a computer functioning all the time he has been a life line throughout, now for umpteen years. Eg he managed to retrieve all Lilly's data from a very serious computer crash - an absolutely god-sent rescue! Lilly, who also

As a freelance journalist nothing can come between me and meeting a deadline including IT blips, bugs and viruses. It is not a matter of the 'show must go on.' The show will go on with or without me.

Since David came on the scene, I have become confident that when problems come up, they will be solved and I

You are fast, efficient, friendly and with endless patience.

This is techno made painfree and child-proof. Many thanks.

I like David's approach. He's friendly and professional and has rescued me repeatedly from those irritating computer niggles! He's great on recommending products as well.... Thanks David.!

David Leonard created a full suite of software for us in 1985 and has made many improvements over the years. We still use much of the software almost continuously. Although it has been reliable and robust, we call David in from time to time from his South London business address to our Oxfordshire offices.

He continues to provide first class

Great personal service. Extremely helpful.

It is reassuring to know that I can call David and he will know the answers to the questions I don't even know how to ask.

When we were in crisis, David was there.
