Need help on posting
You would think as long as I've been posting I would know how to do it! However, the last three times I have tried to send a reply to someone's post I have timed out and lost all that I wrote. It just happened again as I tried to reply to the post about the power port.It is discouraging, and at this point I don't dare post anything but very short messages . Is there any way to retrieve messages that time out? Can Joe or someone tell me what I am doing wrong? Thank you so much! Tricia

Re: Need help on posting
Hi Tricia, Getting timed out and losing your post has happened to many of us. I use to copy and paste while I composed my post to be on the safe side. That is one way...but then someone else told me when I start writing my post to click the "Preview Post" button and then continue. If you write a post you know will take some time...just keep hitting preview post and you will be safe.
There is nothing worse then to reply to a thread only to lose it. So frustrating. Anyway...it's so nice to see you here.
I hope this helps.

Re: Need help on posting
Hi TricaK:
I've had this happen to me to. What I do is write my note in Word or WordPad or whatever, then copy & paste it into the reply field. Then you can spell check too!
That way you can save it as a temporary file and there is no danger of you 'timing out' unexpectedly with your internet connection. |

Re: Need help on posting
Hi Tricia, this is so annoying and I'm wondering if this is happening because the system is logging you out after a short time?
I'm sure Joe can help more if you send him a pm and hope you get it sorted soon.

Re: Need help on posting
Tricia,
It has happened to me numerous times. When I am into it, I forget time. [And like right at this moment, my husband just interrupted me for almost 10 minutes...]
What I have learned is to use the 'Go Advanced' button. It will ask you to log on again. And after you log on, your writing should appear. [Hubby had interrrupted me for another 10 minutes - let's see if it will work.]
Ok, after you log on again, you will be seeing your posting in the editing window. Just click on 'Save', and it will be posted.
