📹 Quick Note About Your Tapes
We're here to preserve your personal home movies - weddings, birthdays, family moments! 💝
✅ We Convert:
Home movies, family events, personal recordings
❌ We Skip:
TV shows, movies, commercial content
💡 Mixed tapes? Just note timestamps later (e.g., "0:00-15:00 family video, skip rest"). Saves you money! 🚀
Why? Copyright laws prevent us from copying commercial content, plus focusing on your precious memories means faster turnaround and lower costs for you! Win-win! 😊
⚠️ Tapes with only commercial content cannot be digitized and will be returned with a $10 review fee. (We have to watch through to check, which uses time and wears out our increasingly rare, good quality VCRs! 📼💔)
💡 Pro tip: Check your tapes before sending to avoid this fee and save our precious VCRs! 📼
Sister Company:
— VHS, Film & Audio Digitisation
Preserve your memories with AI-enhanced digital transfers. Tapes, slides, film and audio — handled with care in Hobart.
Why PommeIT?
What makes us different from the rest.
One person. No call centres.
You deal directly with the person doing the work — not a receptionist, not a reseller. The same person answers the phone, does the job and follows it up.
Straight talking, no jargon
We explain what's wrong and what it'll cost in plain English. No upselling, no unnecessary extras, no padding the bill.
No fix, no fee
On data recovery and virus removal, if we can't solve the problem you pay nothing. We'd rather be honest than invoice you for failure.
Apple & Mac specialists
The name says it all. We have a genuine passion for Apple products and years of hands-on experience with Mac hardware and software.
Genuinely local
Based just outside Hobart, we're part of the same community we serve. Your problem matters to us — it's not a ticket in a queue.
A family of services
Need your old VHS tapes digitised too? Our sister company Nostalgix handles analog media with the same care and attention. One family, many skills.
Pomme? Really?
Oh yes.
The name is a nod to the French for apple — because we've always preferred Apple-flavoured IT — and to the affectionate Australian nickname for people from England (of which I am one). A double pun. Not sorry.
PommeIT is a one-person operation based just outside Hobart. No middlemen, no outsourcing — you deal directly with the person who actually knows what they're doing, every time.
"An honest living from our work... not profit from our customers."
