Elderly cat breathing difficulties when purring

[hillfamily]

My new computer arrived this week and I've actually managed to get it to connect wirelessly to t'internet and in under 5 mins :D

 

Now I can been on the forum anywhere in the house :D

 

I'm so happy and it's such an achievement for a technonumpty like me, because whenever I try to do something 'computery' it always go completely wrong or takes ages and still doesn't work.

 

I love my Mac It's soooooooo easy to use and very user friendly :D

[Laura & CTB]

Well done Pam

 

You'll be writing your own software before you know it

 

I always let CTB set up the computers in our house (we have four), that way if they go wrong it's his problem not mine

[Egluntyne]

Well done.

Well done from me too. I am also a hopeless technonumpty As a Mac user did you connect using Airport? Just interested because I have so far

tried and failed to do this with my Mac

Wireless is great, isn't it?

Yes I used Airport

 

I clicked on my airport icon, it listed all the available networks, I clicked on my broadband box, entered the passcode (in my case the code on the broadband box) and then pressed the 'pairing button' on my broadband box and after a few mins I was connected

I've turned my comp on and off a few times to make sure it wasn't a fluke

 

I can't offer much more advice than that because I'm still amazed it worked

 

Fred has got a Mac and of course being a teenager he knows everything, maybe worth PMing him if your stuck

Yup - now I can sit in the kitchen and watch the chooks whilst using the computer :D

[Christian]

Well done Pam!

 

Macs are fab aren't they!?

[hillfamily]

Yup..........wouldn't swap back for anything

should have said - knows everything about computers

[chickenlass]

Gosh!! You have done well.

I have lost the wireless connection to the desktop upstairs and can only get on the Internet with the laptop from the same wireless connection. Haven't got a clue what has happened and a friends son is supposed to be coming to look at what has gone wrong but I know he is really busy at work and its been like that since December. Wouldn't have a clue how to find out what is wrong or why it suddenly went off.

Tessa, what mac do you have, and what OS is it running? (find out the OS by clicking on the apple in the bar at the top, then about this mac)
