ILB glad you have it sorted  ;D We have a maxtor brand external hard drive which backs up the whole computer. So if it ever crashes or gets stolen then you can take the maxtor to the computer people and they will put everything on a new computer  ;) even itunes music etc. Awesome product!!

We use the maxtor hard disc for an extra copy of data.  Only problem is that it appears to need the programs on the computer - so I still had to reload them - maybe I didn't do it right?

Hi ILB
Sorry I have not been on line lately. In Outlook go to Tools Accounts and make sure on each account the Save Password box is ticked - then you should not be asked again. It is worth buying a little headset for Skype - camera is not necessary - except for grandchildren etc.....
Have had a wonderful 60th birthday party at the wekend - which is why I was not active on forum - did catering myself with Thermie doing lots of work - I had both my machines going to make bread butternt hummus chicken liver pate and salads.
Don't know what I did before.,
Cheers
Shayla

Thanks Shyla and HAPPY BIRTHDAY.  Well done on the catering, sounds like you have been busy.

I now have all except the bigpond working and for some reason it doesn't like the password - even though it matches the web based mail part.

I have all those settings in place so I'll give bigpond a call and find out what to do there, may need to re-set my password?

Happy birthday Shayla. We can tell you that life really begins at 60 not 40 as they all say.
