Technical Help / Land Registry Form printing in wrong colour
« on: Thursday 11 January 24 11:08 GMT (UK)  »
Can anyone help please?

On a downloaded Land Registry form, I typed all the details required in black as requested.  When I went to print it the typed details came out as blue and underlined.

On the Before You Start blurb there are the words Personal Information Charter in blue and underlined.  Is this why the typed info came out blue?  Or is there some other reason?

Technical Help / Bookmarks Bar on Chrome
« on: Thursday 09 November 23 11:15 GMT (UK)  »
It seems that Chrome has been 'updating' the look of their page. I now have all my bookmarks in  grey and is okay but harder on the eyes to see.

Trying to find out how to make them easier to see. I didn't get anywhere doing a Google search.  Not super technically minded!

Below is what I see now.  Can someone tell me how to get the folders to be coloured and maybe the writing bigger?  Many thanks.  Below is what I see now.:-

Technical Help / PayPal payments not showing on email account
« on: Wednesday 04 October 23 10:44 BST (UK)  »
On my email account I have various folders one of which is for PayPal.  Whenever I make a payment via PayPal I receive a message to the PayPal folder.

The last two payments I made, one yesterday and one today, have not shown up in that folder.

I can't work out why that is so.  The payments appear on the PayPal website.

Any suggestions on how to solve this please?  Thank you.

Technical Help / Google Chrome Blog Lines
« on: Wednesday 28 June 23 21:18 BST (UK)  »
For the last couple of days I've been getting these Google Chrome Blog Lines boxes popping up in my email tab.  They are not actual emails, just boxes flogging various commodities.

I've tried to find out how to get rid of them but not getting anywhere. 

If someone can tell me how to stop these I would be most grateful.

Correction - they pop up on the computer regardless of what tab I have up.

The Common Room / Find My Past sign-in problem
« on: Tuesday 18 April 23 16:19 BST (UK)  »
Is anyone having a problem with signing in to Find My Past?  ???

It looks as though they have been 're-designing' their website and I now cannot sign in.  I am using the correct email and password but it keeps claiming that one or the other is incorrect.

I have sent a message to FindMyPast and also ran a CCleaner in case that made a difference, but it didn't.

Family History Beginners Board / Cousin relationship
« on: Friday 10 February 23 16:13 GMT (UK)  »
I always get somewhat muddled with this.  ::)

My sister has now become a grandma through her son and his wife.

My son and daughter are therefore first cousins to sister's son.

This is where I get muddled - what is the relationship between my children and my sister's grandchild?

Is it second cousin or something else?

Thanks to anyone who clarifies this for me.  :D

Technical Help / Antivirus software for Windows
« on: Friday 10 February 23 09:14 GMT (UK)  »
My current antivirus software will 'expire' in April.  Before I decide to renew with my current provider, Kaspersky, could other Rootschatters tell me who they use?

It will be for just one computer.  I just use the computer for browsing, bank accounts and playing card games.  I don't download films or anything like that.

There are so many antivirus software programmes it can get a bit overwhelming deciding who to use!

Thank you.

Technical Help / Google using/accessing camera?
« on: Tuesday 01 November 22 16:30 GMT (UK)  »
Every time I put my computer on in the morning, I get a message along the lines of Google has access to or is using your camera.

What does that mean  ???

I actually have the camera lens covered over with a small object so I doubt anything could be seen.

Because I am deaf I don't do zoom stuff or anything that requires a video link.  Perhaps I should find the bit on my computer that shuts off the camera?

Any advice/remarks etc will be appreciated.  Thank you.

Technical Help / Disappearing folder in Outlook
« on: Sunday 25 September 22 14:49 BST (UK)  »
For some reason a folder I had in Outlook has vanished.  Any suggestions as to how to get it back please?

As far as I am aware I didn't delete it by mistake.  I tried looking on Google but not getting anywhere.

Any help greatly appreciated.  In simple terms if possible, not a computer buff!  :)
