Fan oven problem. HELP!?
The element doesn't heat when I set it to "Fan oven" but DOES when I set it to "grill" - so the element itself seems to be okay. What's the problem? And can I fix it myself or do I need to get.someone in?
1 AnswerDo It Yourself (DIY)8 years agoNo space on my boot (C:) drive!?
Despite deleting everything I've ever saved on my computer I STILL get told I only have 5% of free space! (Which isn't even enough to defrag it!!)
I am what is known as a "Silver Surfer" so am rather ignorant of all this technology stuff and would REALLY appreciate any help from you techies out there. ;o)
9 AnswersOther - Hardware1 decade agoAll gone!!!?
When I switched my computer on today and logged in to my account - everything has gone!
All my files, folders, documents, photos, music - EVERYTHING!
Even my "favourites" is empty!
It was fine when I switched off last night - what's happened? And is there any way I can recover the lost data?
(We all know we should 'backup' - but honestly, how many of us actually DO? And I obviously didn't so no point in suggesting it now)
Strangely enough, I like to play cards from a disc I bought. It was one of the things missing so I popped the disc in and loaded it up again. I played my favourite game and when I finished it said I'd played 1 won 1... BUT all the games I'd played previously were there in the stats, just not showing as MINE! How is THAT possible? If all the data was lost, how does it know when I last played cards and how I got on?
I logged in to my granddaughters account - and hers seems to be intact, (well, her chosen photo is still her background anyway.)
7 AnswersOther - Computers1 decade agoAll joking and jesting aside - did ANYONE get a "birthday gift" from "Yahoo Answers"?
We were all assured by Yahoo that it was a genuine offer and not just an attempt to get our personal details - but I don't know of anyone who actually received anything from Yahoo...
... unless you know differently...

When my son tried to access iTunes he got the message...
QuickTime failed to initialize. Error # -2093.
Please make sure QuickTime is properly installed on this computer.
He's asked me to sort it - but I don't even know what QuickTime is!
How do I set the computer to initiate iTunes when we click on the iTunes icon???
5 AnswersOther - Computers1 decade agoSo you thought Big Brother was bad taste...?
How about the new Endemol production in the Netherlands that features a terminally ill woman and is called... wait for it ... "Who Will Win My Kidneys?"...
She has to choose from three transplant candidates and has the tag-line - "you can text her during the show" - eeuuhh!
Are the people who choose to watch this type of show even sicker than SHE (or Endemol) is?
