Computer questions you'd be embarrassed to ask any where else!

Are you using the free 15GB google offer to store stuff? All my stuff gets backed up daily there and I keep an eye on it to always have space free.

hi all…. In a fit of madness I bought a domain name from Blacknight last year. Let’s call it “masala.me”.

I couldn’t get a .ie or a .eu in my name. So took a .me instead.

I did nothing with it for the year cos I really don’t know what I can do. Hence this post!!

So what can I do with it? I am up for renewal and so must decide to keep it or let it go.

at the same time I also joined proton mail and have a ..jon@proton.me.

How can I put the 2 together.

Sorry …just a novice on this side of things

Many thanks all

It's disgraceful that "reputable" companies are happy to exploit the elderly in this way. No doubt he was convinced to sign up to the broadband he didn't need on the doorstep. Door-to-door seling should be outlawed.

The large file you deleted may well be still in your OneDrive recycle bin. Empty the bin.

Are you able to log in to mygov.ie with the credentials or does it tell you it's invalid there too?

Try using an incognito window in case it's a cookie issue.

can you login through here with your gov?

I never heard of that postbox before. I wonder is their anything in mine…

Click on the link that says "show all services" or something like that when you are logged into MyGov. You will then see the digital postbox listed.

Hello all.

I used to be able to download Liveline and save on a memory card/memory stick to listen on my radio when I am away. Now I cannot find out how do do it again I have forgotten how I did it or they have removed that facility, can you help please?

Here is the podcast pages for Liveline.

https://www.rte.ie/radio/podcasts/22504749-foreign-vessels-in-irish-waters-patrick-the-van/

its probably been taken away (the facility to download episodes) - you can however use the share link and copy and paste the link into another browser or into a phone search engine like google - and it will open it in a new tab or window - depending on what you are using to listen to it from - You will need wifi or a data connection

Its the blue box just there - click on it and then choose the option "click to copy link" - then paste that text into a tab or window on your device

If you have a smart phone you can download episodes individually on the Pocket casts app: https://play.pocketcasts.com/discover
set up an account for free - from your phone - in the play store or apple store search "pocketcasts" then once in search liveline and then pick an episode you want to download to your phone, then listen back - this wont need an internet connection to listen to it - only to download it

Thank you all. I am trying your suggestions now, beginning with SourSessions. What is RSS please?

I bought an item from Ali Express, it arrived and I was happy with it. Since then I keep getting spam from the under promotion@aliexpress.com It always goes into my junk folder but try as I might I keep blocking it but it still comes in. Can you help please.

Is there an "Unsubscribe" option on the bottom of the emails? If not block them in your email like below.

Block the Sender in Your Email Provider (e.g., Gmail, Outlook):

• Gmail:
  • Open an email from promotion@aliexpress.com.
  • Click the three vertical dots (More) in the upper right corner.
  • Select "Block promotion@aliexpress.com."
• Outlook:
  • Open the email.
  • Click on "Junk" in the toolbar.
  • Select "Block Sender."

If you are a registered customer you should be able to opt out of marketing communication.
