    New wifi router. How to input the new password on my laptop?

    Thats interesting. By coincidence the mouse stopped interacting with the curser around the same time.......i wonder if that problem is connected.

    New wifi router. How to input the new password on my laptop?

    Situation is....... Virgin gave me a new router. The engineer changed the password on my phone and my laptop. For some reason, after 2 months, the laptop has forgotten the new password and is only showing the old defunct one. (Phone is fine). I cannot find a way to put the new one back in...

    Alvor......Portugal, in June. Any suggestions?

    Never been to Portugal. Alvor is on the coast, next to an en estuary. There is a reserve within walking distance. Being June I am not expecting anything special but hopefully there will be different birds to those seen in the UK. Any ideas/suggestions etc. appreciated. Many thanks

    Moore Nature Reserve may close down

    TBH I thought it was just the land adjacent to the canal on the Warrington side of Moore i.e. where those factory/storage facilities are.

    Not sure............I will take a note when I next switch on (It only comes up then) and let you know. But I thought Apple was, just Apple i.e. Apple Mac ?

    Should I download this ???

    I have standard lap top that operates with Windows 8 (I will upgrade to 10). Quite often, when I switch on, a box appears that tells me I need the latest APPLE download. It all looks very official but as far as I know my computer has nothing on it that is in any way connected to Apple. So, any...
