My wife has a new Windows 8 laptop, and she uses the Thunderbird e-mail client, just like she did on the old laptop.
The setup is shown here.

There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

    There is no retina scanner on the iPad. There is what Apple calls a Retina display. It means that the display has more pixels than the human eye can distinguish.

    It's funny how these problems re-appear and how BT seemingly don't know that they exist and, actually, don't belive what you are saying!
    I keep on getting a pop-up that tells me I have an e-mail issue with BT. If I close it, it appears again the next day, if I click on the button to resolve the problem it takes me to the BT Help software, which then asks me what problem I have.
    I don't know! I didn't know there was a problem in the first place!
    I 'chatted' with BT about this - the man said this was a completely new problem that had never been reported or experienced before. He put me through to a telephone help person, who said it was nothing to do with her - she was related to yahoo - but that it would be something to do with BTmail. The lady at BTmail told me that there was nothing that she could do if I couldn't tell her what the problem was. I explained about the pop up and plainly she did not believe me. Apparently, as I don't actually use the btinternet e-mail account I can't get an error message about it.
    Well - I do. Every day.
    What is irritating is to google the problem and find that it actually appears on this forum - and that BT still deny all knowledge. What is even more amazing is to find that this thread dates from 2012 and there are older ones about exactly the same problem........and still BT deny all knowledge.
    Less irritating and more extraordinary is that the 'solution' is to delete the BT Help Center software altogether.
    I've only been with BT Infinity for a month now and this is the second issue that I have had (the first was the HH5 being totally unable to display a device on its network), and it's the second time that BT have effectively said - 'not a BT problem'. Extraordinary.

  • How do I setup a yahoo email account on iPad Air

    After I have put in the information to setup yahoo mail I click on submit and the next screen says I cannot register because of an age problem. I was born in 1956.

    When you create a Yahoo account, which is done on this page (from the U.S.):

  • HoW DO YOU SETUP A NEW wINDOW 7 64 BIT PC FOR ITUNES AND MOVE EVERYTHING OVER FROM AN OLD PC

    How do you setup a new windox 7 64 bit pc for itunes (which documetns folder does the file need placed in and then move everything over from your old pc (which is windows xp)?

    I am pretty disappointed in the lack of documentation.
    This is the Apple Support page for Boot Camp:
    http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
    No mention anywhere of Lion, of 4.0/4.01
    In the past, 10.6.6+ was suppose to - and sometimes did - provide for a download drivers from within Boot Camp Assistant program, in order to save them to flash or such (that should be about 1GB, too large for CD). Some macs req'd a USB-DVD or other driver that was needed pre-install of Winidows
    You don't install Apple drivers until after Windows is installed otherwise,
    It is possible for me, with a tower, to run w/o needing any drivers from Apple. But with laptops, mini, you do need some drivers from Apple for graphics, internet, wireless, SMC support.
    And right now, loading any Apple support Tech Note articles is very very slow.
    People keep asking why Apple can't post 3.0 or 4.0 like they do the updates. Only logic is to force t he download from inside OS X or from an OS X DVD. Otherwise would be here, and avoid all the trouble. they aren't of use on a PC, and any PC motherboard vendor does post their support software for download.

  • How do you setup GNU/Linux on an iMac G4 with Panther OS X 10.3.9 ?...

    How do you setup GNU/Linux on an iMac apple computer
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IMac_G4
    with Panther OS X 10.3.9
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OSX10.3 ?...

    There is a Ubuntu 10.4 version for Mac with PPC architecture; not sure
    how that would work in the computer you may consider running it in.
    Some leads on that kind of discussion can be found by using a Google
    search, and the words: *ubuntu for PPC G4 Mac* + read through results.
    Or choose to search using these terms: *Open Source Linux PPC G4 Mac*
    A few results point back to Apple Discussions, where there were inquiries.
    Note the version of a Linux-type of OS, compatible with Mac PPC hardware,
    on the following page-link: *• Ubuntu 10.0.4 LTS (Lucid Lynx)*
    http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/10.04/release/
    {You would have to put the image, as downloaded from such a site, on a CD
    for use as an Installer; then follow any instructions as available to install it.}
    An old page (from 2007?) with some details, some not up-to-date,
    may be of help to a limited degree, from here: Ubuntu PPC wiki
    https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ#Is%20Ubuntu%20supported%20on%20PowerPC?
    Or: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PowerPCFAQ
    See their home page to look for other information on the site: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/
    These wiki groups are like communities, with rules & other such considerations; you
    may be able to also find +Open Source+ sites with information and builds of suitable
    Linux versions capable of running well in an older PPC Mac. There are newer ones
    that would have no problem on a newer Intel-based Mac, of course.
    • Mac Linux Links: (perhaps too dated)
    http://lowendmac.com/linux/index.shtml
    • Comparison of Linux distributions:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparisonof_Linuxdistributions
    Hardware support in the older PPC G4 Mac computer should be considered, in order
    to have the better experience possible with the Linux-based OS; and some specs in
    an old Mac may not be ideal. The graphics processor unit and amount of dedicated
    RAM for the graphics alone, could make a difference; depending on what you had in
    mind when running a Linux-based OS in a PPC Mac. So consider hardware specs.
    Some hardware in the computer may or may not be supported by the Software; and
    then, there may be some problems implementing a Linux OS version in your Mac.
    If you had an old Mac Mini (PPC or early Intel) & considered running Linux, there's
    a page of general ideas worth a peek: http://sowerbutts.com/linux-mac-mini/
    You may not have enough room on the existing internal hard disk drive inside the
    iMac G4, for a complete OS X 10.3.9 or Later OS X, and a partition for Linux in it.
    And, you may find through reading further, if you need to (or don't) start fresh and
    have a partition for each different OS, or not. For organizational purposes and ease
    of removing one system or the other, a partitioned hard disk drive may be best.
    There probably is a way to have Linux on an external bootable hard disk drive; &
    that would have to be compatible with the Mac hardware requirements to be seen
    and used by the computer, and also the ability to restart from Linux into Mac OS X
    would have to exist in the system software. Hopefully without incident.
    You will have some degree of a learning curve in this matter, from reading up on
    the details of any viable Linux versions, through the ones likely to work in your
    old PPC G4 Mac, and then if there are more than two or three good ones, of those
    what one would be most likely to be worth the additional effort to attempt to use in it.
    Depending on the version and specifications of your iMac G4 computer, there could
    be different versions of linux systems capable of running it. However, some items
    may not be supported which you would need to have working, such as wi-fi internet
    and sleep mode, etc; among others. Searching the net does bring up more info.
    {You may find, that going to OS X 10.4.11 would be more worth the effort, in that
    most everything would 'just work' and you can still find many good software bits
    and some fine freeware or low cost shareware to run on it. Linux versions vary
    so much on what they can and cannot do, I would not recommend running it.}
    Since I am not an expert in the matter, hopefully someone with a experimental time
    and results in a similar vintage Mac as yours will reply and give you insightful info.
    Good luck & happy computing!
