  • How to send In-Line attachment yahoo e-mail ?

    I have sent a frm to a friend as an attachment but it arrives at the destination as postage-stamp-sized image & there is no means of enlarging it there. The size when I sent it was 8½ x 11. Reading my "sent" mail it is legible to me. I enlarged the size & resent it but according to my "sent" mail the size remains the same----I can find no explation of how to send an in-line attachment.

  • Spanish/English Bible in Electronic format--NOT KINDLE !?

    Ihave been searching for a small (palm-sized) electronic version of the Holy Bible that is bilingual Spanish/English. The only thing I find is Kindle which is not suitable for the intended user---it is too large to fit into a purse. It is also necessary that it be usable(readable) where no WI-FI or other connections are available, no computer access is available to this person at their point of use.

    Earlier she had such a Bible but lost it and has not been able to find a suitable replacement.

  • How can I edit a scanned document in WORD ?

    I have tried scanning it to OCR but it will not edit in Word.

    I know I can do what I would like in PhotoShop but that is very time-consuming--in this case I would like to take a printed text and increase it to double/double spacing to allow for comments below each line without re-typing the entire document. PhotoShop allows me to move each line individually but I have many pages to do and not the time to do it one line at a time unless it can be accomplished by striking the "Enter" key ?

    I found instructions for 'microsoft document imaging' but that is not present in my version of office, and do not know if that would even work ?

  • Where to find replacement shade/deflector torchiere lamp?

    I acquired an inexpensive torchiere floor lamp with a plastic deflector/shade which with use of incandescent bulb deteriorated to the point of not being usable.

    Using a CFL bulb however seems to eliminate this heat-related decay of the plastic. Now I need to replace this cone-shaped plastic bowl with either a direct replacemnt part or something similar.. No such article seems to exist anywhere ! Many suppliers sell the lamp for $ 39.99 but I don't want to buy the lamp for the sake of the shade, besides I already have the $ 39.99 lamp !

    I no longer have the information that came with the lamp when I purchased it.

    John and Gretchen Ludwig were from Germany, emigrated to the British N. American Colonies where their daughter Mary Ludwig was born in 1754. She became a "Patriot" and served water to revolutionary soldiers in the battlefield, stepping in to help load and fire cannon when soldiers fell. She became thus the "Molly Pitcher" of lore.

  • Photoshop elements 7, re route to not receive downloads from flash card reader ?

    I just got a new computer and was talked into getting photoshop elements 7 which so far has prove to be less than useless to me! when I now download a flash card it automatically goes into PSE 7. Once it is inside that there is no getting it out to work on it ! I have kept my Photoshop elements 2 because it still works, and once I can get 7 to let go I can make changes using elements 2---I have to take it on faith that 7 can be used for that purpose if it can but near as I can tell it is not usable for editing, some of its tools work but there seems to be noway to liberate photos !
