... to all in Technology for your helpful and (mostly) patient answers to my various questions throughout the year. I do make a note of all your advice so with any luck should need less of your time...
I haven't done this for so long that I've forgotten how to do it.... Have received an email which requires me to confirm registration by copying/pasting a link into my browser. I've highlighted the...
I'm trying to determine which version of Word I'm running. When I upgraded to Windows 7 we just transferred the one I had already; when I open it, the 'title page' comes and goes so quickly that I...
Sorry, I know this has been asked before but I've lost the link. How do I get at the sitesaveronline website? I'm still getting a 'not available' message. I need to see if there have been any queries...
An urgent problem - working to a deadline - can someone help please? I'm trying to transfer images from a camera I don't know - Nikon Coolpix P4 - on to Picasa on my PC running Windows 7. I don't have...
Just got back to my computer to find a message saying something along the lines of 'Windows has detected that another computer has the same IP address as this computer'. Is this possible? Or is it one...
I think I've presed an odd combination of keys by mistake and now have AB in a large type. It's very nice and clear to red, but inconvenient as I can't get much of the page on the screen. What do i...

I'm being very stupid - but then, you all knew that anyway in this section. I've been sent a link in an email on which I need to click (it's quite safe). But I can't do it - it isn't highlighted. The...
We've just cut down a tree, which has had the effect of extending the rockery area. There are still a few trees which keep the sunlight out for much of the day. What would be good plants to put in...
We have transmit, permit, admit, commit and goodness knows how many more, but what happened to the simple 'mit'? I know they all come from Latin mittere, to send, + various prepositions, but it seems...
I've just received an email entitled ESTA system expiration warning. Haven't opened it as I don't know what it means; could someone help please? I'd have thought 'expiry' was better English than...
I'm thinking of upgrading my Olympus compact digital camera to a lighter model. Have looked online and found the SZ-10 listed (I want to stick to Olympus). But my local shop says their order hasn't...
Please could someone settle an argument for me? I've been having problems with an internet connection that keeps dropping (BT Broadband, via a home hub, new last December). I googled the BT FAQs and...
For the first time in goodness knows how many years I've been doing some decorating. The painting itself has gone well, but in spite of putting down loads of newspaper I've managed to get some paint...
I'm currently unable to activate the shortcut icon for IE8 on my desktop; the minimised windows show on the taskbar when I click on them, but won't maximise, and I have to open IE via 'All programs'....
