Should I care? LJ idol, week four

Nov 13, 2009 23:22

Every single day I get up, get dressed, take out my dogs, and then turn on the computer while getting my coffee. Turning that computer on is as important to me as that first cup of coffee. So when something goes wrong with my computer in any way I am not a happy camper. Last week was a perfect example of my computer not doing what it should ( Read more... )

The e-mail crap is still not fixed but yeah, at least one account works. And thankgoodness I still have the internet.

I wish I knew more about computers, for exactly these reasons. I had a major computer crash this past spring and lost a *lot* of data - it's so frustrating trying to recover from that! I hope you get your email fully fixed soon.

Oh, UGH! I would hate to think of recovering from a major crash like that.

Well, it is going to take some fighting with Comcast but I will be damned if I am without e-mail for a prolonged period. So thank goodness for the one account I do have right now.

I think I may be able to help you with this problem because it happened to me a while back. Are you using Outlook? If so, make sure that your outgoing server is authenticated under the account settings. Also, make sure that your incoming and outgoing servers have secure connections, and change the port numbers. For the incoming server, the port should be 465. For outgoing, it needs to be 995. The sucurity settings for both are basically check boxes under the server tab of the properties for a specific account. :) If this doesn't make sense, feel free to e-mail me, and I'll give you my number so that I can try to talk you through exactly what you need to do.

Thanks for the info. I just let Tom here this and he said we would give this a try.

That was useful. Didn't work, but it gave something else for Tom to curse over. LOL! He is going to do some more checking tomorrow.

There's nothing that can whip me into a frenzy faster that an issue with my computer. You have my sympathies.

I'm glad you got it all to working again. :)

Well, it isn't totally fixed to our great frustration. Thanks for reading. And I am sure it will get worked out soon.
