Hi,

I am compiling a list of all films I see and would like to use a film / movie reel symbol. I have Webdings and Wingdings 1/2/3 but do not see such a symbol, and was wondering if there are newer / more versions of webdings and wingdings that I can download perhaps?

Also looking for a wine glass for my wine log!

Please help! Thanks, Al

Hi,

Hope someone can help. Due a momentary slip of my hand I seem to have miraculously moved my Windows XP desktop task menu bar from running along the bottom of my screen to running down the side.

Can someone please tell me - a novice / idiot PC user how to get the task bar back to the bottom of the screen?

Thank You!!

I was quite jealous when I saw the latest Android software on my friend's Samsung Galaxy SII phone and was wondering if there was a way to download this WITHOUT using Samsung's slow and cumbersome Kies technology? A safe way to download it to the phone that is! Any help much appreciated. Thanks, Alex

Hi Just got a new Toshiba satellite laptop notebook second hand and am looking for advice on how to quickly sync it with my home broadband wi fi. Cheers

I am looking to replace my bathroom sink taps. I know NOTHING about DIY and was wondering if all tap (single tap not mixer tap) connections were the same? As I don't think they are, how would I go about measuring the correct spacing for new taps? Thank you very much for any advise you can give!

I am a freelance proof reader, editor and copywriter but am finding it harder and harder to get work due to my lack of knowledge in the fields of SEO wording and HTML writing. Therefore I am hoping some of you may know of good online or distance learning courses in SEO and basic HTML.

I am a novice at all this, but am a quick learner so any course should do; or should I look for an accredited course - if there is such a thing.

Thanks in advance, Alex

Hi everyone! I hope someone can help me turn off automatic updates on the Samsung Galaxy SII. This seems to be eating through my data allowance with updates almost daily for many downloads on my phone. Can someone tell me how to switch off automatic downloads so I can decide which ones to download and when. Thanks, Alex

I currently have an electric hob in my kitchen which I hate cooking on so I am buying a new gas hob.

I was wondering how exactly I measure the hob and the area already cut in to the kitchen worktop so I can have a Gas Safe engineer install the correct size of gas hob.

There is already a gas connection for a gas hob but I am just worried I get the measurements wrong for a new gas hob and it ends up not fitting correctly.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I am looking to see if anyone knows of a material which I can purchase in the UK to safely attach small Edifier surround speakers and a small bass unit to the top of my TV.

The speakers are currently placed in front of the TV at the bottom on the TV stand, but I feel I am losing a lot of the sound benefits as they are not at ear level.

The material would need to be adhesive on both sides (to stick to the TV and the speakers) and be able to be removed safely later on as well if possible.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated so I can really hear my TV!

Thank you, Alex

My friend kindly got me an engraved drinking tankard for my 40th. However, the engraving is very faint and I was wondering if anyone knew before I take it back to the engravers, or to a different engraver, if the engraving can be done over again to create a deeper, clearer look? Thanks in advance, Alex

I have recently developed dry eye, which is irritating at best, painful and depressing at worst times, and was wondering if anyone had any natural tips to lessen the symptoms and / or recommend the best kind of drops or gel to ease the pain? I am currently using Blink but have heard there are better off the shelf solutions for dry eye. Thanks !

Hi! I accidentally turned on the pointless and annoying (to me) sticky keys function on my PC by I think pressing the Shift key too often. I know I can turn Sticky Keys off manually each time I turn on the PC but was hoping someone could offer a quick and final solution to turning sticky keys off permanently. The PC is a Sony VAIO desktop PCV-W2 with Windows XP. Thanks!

Seriously considering LASIK eye surgery and have already been for a consultation at Optical Express, but was wondering what fellow Yahoo-ers experience of UK based "high street" companies like Optical Express, Optimax and Ultralase are? Thanks!

Hi, My current smart phone broke last week and as I can't get a new one delivered till after the New Year I am using my old Samsung. This is the SGH-Z540. Yes, its an old one!

My only question is I cannot seem to transfer music files from my PC to the phone. The computer (a Sony VAIO PCV-W2) does not recognise the phone and the Samsung PC studio software is utter crap.

I only want to know how I can get music from my PC to the phone !

If anyone can help, PLEASE do I'm missing my tunes so much!

Thanks!

Hi, Hope someone can explain in simple terms the best way to seal my windows against a draught that has been noticed over the past few days.

The windows are double glazed wooden frames. They already seem to have some sort of foam draught excluder between the frame of the actual window and the wooden frame at the side. I think this is supposed to come off but I find it extremely difficult to remove. Therefore, a tip on removing this (if necessary) would be great, as well as the best type of draught excluding material to purchase (UK based).

Any advice, help and tips would be greatly appreciated; I'm sure this draught is why we're always getting colds !!

Thanks in advance,

Alex

Does anyone know how I can move Vuze from one drive on my computer to another?

It is currently downloading items into the smaller drive of two on my PC. A friend set it up a few years ago and we no longer are in touch and I am hoping to move the downloading in Vuze to the larger drive so I can download larger files. If anyone can explain in simple, layman, idiot (!) terms how I do this, please do! Thanks.

When I turned on my PC (a Sony VAIO PCV-W2 desktop) today, windows were only available in a small format in the centre of the PC screen. A large pure black background can be seen around all windows (files, folders and web pages) and I cannot get them to re-format to fit the full screen size of the PC. I am almost 100% PC Stupid so I cannot figure out what I may have done for this to happen, nor do I know how to fix it. Please Help if you can. Thanks, Alex

Hi everyone, From today each time I open a new window in Mozilla Firefox my PC screen (a Sony VAIO PCV-W2) goes blank for a second or two while the new window is opened. I doubt this is a problem with Firefox but more likely my PC. Any ideas? Thanks.

This will probably be the dumbest PC related question of the day but someone please tell me how I select a Delete All function on my PC? What I mean is I have a lot of old photos I want to delete but rather than doing so one by one, I would like to Select the first photo and the last photo and delete ALL photos in between!

I know there is a way to do this as I saw a friend do it once but never took in the keys on the keyboard to use!

Thanks

Hi everyone!

I have an older but wonderful Sony VAIO PCV-W2 desktop and quite often I get a Windows message saying my "computer is running low on virtual memory".

Does anyone know how this can be rectified? Is it anything to do with a lot of files I have in some temporary folders that I cannot seem to delete?

I'm an intermediate PC user at best so any help - in simple terms - would be most appreciated.

Thanks!
