This morning a guy came from AT&T to try to fix my computer, and he had to wait until I flagged down one of the maintenance guys so that the AT&T guy could ask if he could get into the "computer closet" (something on the side of...

Let's see...where to begin?
I did Discussions from 4/24 and 4/25 today and only had about 60 Notifications to do. I am starting to see daylight and will be caught up some time in May. I've been able to replace the photos and...

I am diligently working at catching up here on MyLot. Today I did Discussions for 4/11 and 4/12. I also do anywhere from 50 to 110 Notifications per day. Slowly but surely I will catch up.
I spent a couple more hours on the...

This computer stuff will never be over with. I spent 2-1/2 hours on the phone with Carbonite yesterday. They are the company that automatically backs up my files. They finally sent me to an advanced rep who was able to find an...

Well, I have been able to use my computer for 4 days now. I have caught up from March 12-22. I will get through all the Discussions eventually. I am averaging 2 days per day plus all the Notifications (50-60 per day). It's...

Finally, after a month of sitting on the phone with Dell, I called Netgear to check out my router since Dell said they had run out of options. I paid $49; and then the tech spent 2 hours checking out my router and didn't find...

As I suspected, I have to send my computer back to Dell. I will receive a box on Monday. There are some speed and Privacy Error messages to be addressed; and I have not been able to log into the internet.
By the time that I get...

I didn't think it could get worse; but it did.
Spectrum came on Saturday and checked the outside lines, basement connections and replaced my modem since it was 8 years old. There was no improvement in the freezing on my...

I started the morning trying to log on, and I could not click anything on the left side of my screen. So, I got on the phone to tech support, and after calling I got connected with their "tech experts." I was talking to a lady...

Until I get really used to it my laptop just is not as functional for me as my desk top was. Last night it kept freezing up so I did not get back here like I wanted.

Today I have a field trip with my...

It seems I am always creating posts about computer issues. (maybe because my life is boring and only when my computer acts up do I have anything to say. (LOL).
Anyway, yesterday I finally figured out which novel I am going to...

It's happened twice so far. The screen will go black; and then it will start to flash. This last time I shut it off and turned it back on; and it was OK. If it continues, it will have to go back to Dell for repair.

Gloryoski! Today my computer is running like a champ. The second light is almost always lit; and it hasn't hung up once. And to add salt to the wound, I got an email that my new computer has shipped.
I suppose I will just have...

Yesterday was not a good day for me. I don't know what I did to displease the Tech gods but they were really mad at me. From 10AM to 2PM, I could not access the Internet and my laptop was behaving as if it swallowed electronic...

Yesterday I was too tired to finish scheduling bill payments online for our credit cards at Chase. I'd had some problems with their interface and wanted to wait until today to face it again. I have always used this site with...
