YIPPEE - I Can Send MyLot Private Messages Again! Browser Problem. email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 93/100. ellie333 (6793)   ranked 1,300 out of 32,594 in mylot.com1 year ago

Hi Guys, As some of you are aware for months I have been able to receive but never to send any private messages and I thought it was just a glitch in the myLot system, apologies myLot it was in fact to do with the browser I have been using. I have now started using Firefox and can successfully use the other sites I was having problems with and also send private messages here. Have any of you ever experineced a minor computer problem that was as simple as which browser or setting you were on. I am such a novice but due to the advice of a myLot friend in helping me comment on another site I discovered this was the reason for the PM glitch too. Happy Ellie:D

Hi Ellie,

I'm so pleased to hear you sorted the problem, I had wondered if it was your browser myself as I know you've been having probs, my partners ace at the pc and he normally sorts any probs out, if I can't. I switched to firfox because it is a much stable browser and can handle what I want to do on my site, than some others which can't cope with it for some unknown reason, I was using internet explorer and had loads of probs with it and it was slow compared to what I use now. Glad your all sorted xx


myLot reputation of 93/100. ellie333 (6793)   ranked 1,300 out of 32,594 in mylot.com  1 year ago

Hi Scorpio, It was Mands I think that mentioned it as I was having problems commenting to you guys also especially to her as it kept saying the abode was slowing computer up. I am relieved it is all now sorted and once feeling 100% again will probably be back to test it all out. Lucky you having a partner who is a whizz at computers, I am such a novice LOL. It was IE I was having probs with and AOL too. Think what I really need though is a newer faster computer which I may invest in in the New Year. Huggles. Ellie:D


myLot reputation of 96/100. scorpio19 (657)   ranked 2,407 out of 32,594 in mylot.com  1 year ago

Hi, I had a feeling it was our Mand she's a very clever girl, is that one! I also thought it was internet explore you were using, my partner swears by ie thinks it's brill but I just don't it's still on my pc and I just can't use it now at all, I'm so use to firefox, lets hope you have a new one eh? honestly Ellie you'll be that fast you won't know what to do with yourself..lol

Has she abandoned myLot in favour of pastures new? The turncoat! Sheesh cry

Hiya Scoop,
She's a very busy lady but I haven't heard off her myself for a few days, which is a worry.

Hey! How strange that you couldn't send private messages for months! I myself have never experienced this kind of problem. I'm glad to hear that you are now able again to answer your private messages.:)
I use firefox too and I think it's a great browser. Anyway, enjoy sending loads and loads of private messages.^^


myLot reputation of 93/100. ellie333 (6793)   ranked 1,300 out of 32,594 in mylot.com  1 year ago

Hi Maclanis, Oh it will be so good to respond to private messages as what I have to do at present is to acknowledge receipt of message through a discussion and explain not being ignorant but cannot reply. I must admit I am finding Firefox really easy to use. Huggles. Ellie:D

I'm glad to hear you got it all worked out. I am having some trouble with mylot. There are three friends on my list whose discussions have not been getting to me. They are on my friend list still, and their notifications are on, but I don't get their discussion notifications in my e-mail. Having so many people on my friend list, I depend on getting the notifications so I don't have to sift through my friends to find their discussions. So far I only know of three people's discussions that are not getting to me. I think there might be more. Mylot has told me they will fix it for the past three months. It hasn't been fixed yet. I don't know if they know how to fix it.


myLot reputation of 93/100. ellie333 (6793)   ranked 1,300 out of 32,594 in mylot.com  1 year ago

Hi AmbiePam, I have two whose notifications I have turned on and I don't receive an email to say when they have started a discussion that I am aware of, there could indeed be more but these are the ones I have noticed when seeing a discussion of theirs that is recent and knowing I haven't received. I hope myLot sorts this one for you. Mine was my broswer and not myLot although I must admit I did think it could have been a glitch on their part at one time. Huggles. Ellie:D

w00tYay Ellie!!!
Doesn't it feel good when you are able to resolve a computer problem? I am so frustrated by my lack of knowledge when it comes to my computer. cryI don't even know where to look to find my browser. I have this problem that whenever I forwar a joke to my twin, she never gets just one copy. The last time she received 45. It has happened to a couple other people but only a couple of times. It's mostly betweem me and my twin. The first time came from her. Now it seems to be in my computer. I don't even know how to clean sweep it. I have a virus protector. It is called Trend MicroPC_cillin Internet security. Does this sound familiar to you? I probably downloaded something that is messing with my computer. If you can tell me how to find my browser, I would be so grateful. surrenderxoxoxo

myLot reputation of 93/100. ellie333 (6793)   ranked 1,300 out of 32,594 in mylot.com  1 year ago

Hi Leenie, A novice trying to explain to a novice LOL. I don't really know how to explain but it would be a great discussion question for you to ask as I am sure there are many computer whizzes on here. All I done was to download Firefox after doing a search for it and it replaced my usual browser and now when I start up I click onto Firefox instead of Interent Explorer or AOL. I have a security one but personally haven't heard of the one you mention. It has made a difference to numerous sites I visit so it may help by not sending 45 of the same email to your twin. To clean at the end of the day I press disc clean up but once a month I have a scna disc programme that searches out anything but someone else installed that and the computer has an automatic defragmenter ect that runs overnight on scheduled dates. Sorry I wasn't ay help. Huggles. Ellie:D

Hi Ellie, I'm glad you got your pm problem sorted out. I have a minor glitch with myLot in that I don't get notified when lots of my friends start discussions. (And yes, I have clicked "notifier on" for them!) I know that lots of other people also have this problem, but I suppose there could be a simple solution that we don't know about.

Apart from this, there have been a few other things that we've found don't work with Firefox, the most recent one happened just before when my husband was trying to look up details of some flights we booked, and the airline website would only work properly on Windows explorer.


myLot reputation of 93/100. ellie333 (6793)   ranked 1,300 out of 32,594 in mylot.com  1 year ago

Hi Liquorice, I know of two people whose notifications are turned on and I don't receive their discussions and a few friends also have the same problem but as we all have different email providers I guess it must be a myLot thinng rather than browser. Strange that the flights don't seem to appear with firefox it is IE I tend to have more problems with. Thanks for sharing. Ellie:D


myLot reputation of 98/100. liquorice (1756)   ranked 184 out of 32,594 in mylot.com  1 year ago

Yes, that's an annoying problem. I know that I'm missing out on some great discussions!

We were panicking a little when we couldn't see our flight times, as we hadn't written them down. Suppose there's always the phone, but so much more convenient to do things online. happy

This is what I do also, if ever I have problems with one browser, I first delete all those cookies and cache first and see what will happen. If it doesn't work, I'll see a different one and see how it goes. In fact, I have several browsers downloaded in my laptop and that I have easy access every time one gets some glitch. I have, Chrome, Avant, Firefox, IE and AW2. At this moment I am fairly using Firefox most of the time since there are a lot of online movies that are telling to use firefox since it had good streaming and compatibility. Glad that you're back and things were solve in your part.


myLot reputation of 93/100. ellie333 (6793)   ranked 1,300 out of 32,594 in mylot.com  1 year ago

Hi Sirrob, Wow you do have a lot of browers to choose from, I have Aol, Firefox or IE but prefer Firefox so far as it does seem to have stopped a lot of problems I was getting with certain sites. Thanks for sharing your choices. Huggles. Ellie:D


myLot reputation of 90/100. sirrob (2557)   ranked 247 out of 32,594 in mylot.com  1 year ago

I was having an experiment about this browsers before of who among them loads fast and who has good security settings and after that I just let them stay there as long as it doesn't harm my system then they can fairly stay around. happy Chrome is still on it's beta stage and seems to have good future. Firefox has the best internet security and I was playing with it recently when I got a SCAM email for suppose to be a notice from Liberty Reserve and so I did tried it's best. It works perfectly fine and I even made a discussion about it yesterday. Silly me, huh.!w00t
