New Zealand Completed Requests / NZ BDM site changes
« on: Thursday 15 June 23 01:26 BST (UK)  »
I saw this on another site this morning: (15/06/2023)

Have you seen the changes on the NZ births, deaths and marriages site this morning? You can now search for:
Birth of a deceased person who died 50 years ago or more or who was born 80 years ago or more
and
Marriages that occurred 75 years ago or more


A little bit of improvement ... might be a little bit of help to get further ahead.

Technical Help / Rootschat problem with Firefox
« on: Saturday 04 July 20 05:21 BST (UK)  »
Hello,

This morning I had no problems using Rootschat with Firefox.  That is, until this afternoon when I turned the laptop on, and a Firefox page popped up saying I was up to date.  Clicked on Rootschat links in my emails and up popped this message.

Secure Connection Failed
An error occurred during a connection to www.rootschat.com. PR_CONNECT_RESET_ERROR
The page you are trying to view cannot be shown because the authenticity of the received data could not be verified.
Please contact the website owners to inform them of this problem.


Google Chrome I can get straight in, which I am using now obviously,  I tried on my nearly dying old laptop, and had no problem.  Seems to me that something went haywire after shutting down and starting up again. 

I am using Windows 10 HP which is nearly a couple of months old, the old one is the same make.

I don't want to fiddle around, when I don't know what I am looking at ;D :D

Should mention that I have no trouble with Firefox using other websites, only this one.

United States of America / Connecticut Marriage 1870's
« on: Monday 15 June 20 05:09 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

What would a Norwich, Connecticut 1870's Marriage Certificate have on it.  Wondering if it was worth getting, and how would I go about it.

Lanarkshire / *COMPLETED* Barnhill Poorhouse Admission Record
« on: Wednesday 18 September 13 09:38 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

Today I found a death of a rellie who died in the Barnhill Poorhouse in 1917, the bonus was the informant was a niece, but none the wiser as I don't know yet who they belong to. :D

What information would be available on the Admission Record, especially if the deceased wasn't married, and would it include sibling's families?

The last Admission Record to a Poorhouse I received was for 1867 and was just wondering if it is worthwhile to ask the Mitchell Library for the Record and would I be any the wiser?

Technical Help / Printer sharing not Printing (COMPLETED)
« on: Tuesday 09 April 13 06:23 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

I have had no problems with sharing my old lappy with the PC Printer in the past. ;D

That is ..... until it went to "Lap Top Heaven" and my new lappy doesn't like the set up. :(   It seems to be set up right, as I have the two little people showing.

The problem starts when I go to print from the lap top (yes, the PC and printer are on), the print jobs end up in queue, sometimes they can be cancelled, and sometimes not, depends on the mood of the printer ;D  and end up with a little yellow triangle then have to click on troubleshoot.

I am guessing it has something to do with the printer spooler or something :-\

PC is Windows 7 HP Omni 100
Lap Top is Windows 7 Pavilion g6
Printer Epson TX210

Any help in simple terms would be appreciated.

Cheers
KHP

EDITED:   I am also wireless, having a satellite on the roof, but this was never a problem with the last print sharing.

New Zealand Completed Requests / Christchurch Paper Death Notices COMPLETED
« on: Friday 15 March 13 09:35 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,

When SKS is going to the library are they able to look out for two death notices for me?  As these are about 7 years old and I know there is living issue, I will provide the details to the person who nibbles my post by PM :D

I know the deaths were Christchurch, so not sure if the main paper or local paper :)
