Problem receiving emails through Windows Live Mail

09. July 2018 · Write a comment · Categories: Uncategorized

I have 3 different email address linked to my Windows Live Mail. Two of them are receiving and sending messages okay however my email is not.

When I first open the email program I get the following error message

"Unable to send or receive messages for ...........@gmail.com"

I then press Send/Receive and then get error message

"The server has rejected your login. Please verify that your username and password are correct"

When I click OK I get a dialogue box to enter my username and password (prefilled). I clicked OK and it came back to "the server has rejected your login" I tried several other usernames and passwords but it has not accepted any of them.

How do I overcome this issue? Or, how do I change my password?

Hi...I am having issues accessing live mail tonight...it states that the password is incorrect and I have tried changing it to no avail. I had fibre installed on the 5th July so has a new password for the router but this doesn't make sense as it worked on Friday after the installation...I checked on line and one recommendation was to access 'control panel' and try a repair procedure but if keeps stating that connection is lost...could you advise please...thanks

All of my windows photos are mixed in with other photo folders. My eldest Daughter an I went on a walk that we used to go on years ago. One month ago I had put 107 photos in a special folder. Now this folder has photos from other folders in with my original photo folder. The photos were in the correct order when put in the folder, now they are not. what is going on. I am in my late 70's and doubt if I can do the 45 minute walk again. Where is PICASA when you need it. Doug Longbottom.

Editing clips from vintage films featured on YouTube

08. July 2018 · Write a comment · Categories: Uncategorized
I would just like to edit about two and half minutes from a four minute YouTube video - is this legal and can I do it?  For example,  if I see outtakes from a 1950s movie that runs five minutes and I would like to cull just two minutes of it,  may I do this? It's NOT for commercial use and I would not be profiting in any way. What software is available (preferably FREE) and is it possible? THANK YOU! 

Published video from WMM 6.0 Freezes on one shot (Windows 10)

08. July 2018 · Write a comment · Categories: Uncategorized

I have Windows 10 Home, and I am trying to make a video on Windows Movie Maker 6.0

When I play the preview, about 50 seconds in, it freezes. When I click at a later time (let's say 1:50), the screen goes black unless I click some settings like "Fade in" and "Fade out" to refresh the preview video, which then works fine.

I published the video. When I reach that same exact frame (around 0:54), the screen freezes, and when I drag it to a later time, the screen goes to black while the audio plays.

I've been using different clips for the video (They are all in .wmv format), and when that screen shot freezes, the screen wants to go to black and not play the video correctly.

Why has this been happening to me?

Windows Media Player is too dark

07. July 2018 · Write a comment · Categories: Uncategorized
Every time I use Windows Media Player (with different videos), there always is a dark tint or lack of brightness to it. I've tried the 'videos settings' option from clicking 'Enhancements', but it doesn't work, and neither does the hue, saturation, or contrast. I've seen other people have this problem, but their's are getting fixed by these solutions that don't seem to work on my computer. I believe I am running on Windows 10. Also please be patient with me, I'm very bad at following simple instructions and I'm very bad with computers. Thank you in advance!!

Movie Maker

I brought joy to many old folks in homes by covering events and collecting photos taken by carers, and producing a movie of pics with the effects and sound track. All of this was possible using movie maker and was very good for reminiscence projects. So I plead with you please allow me to carry on using this application it helps dementure patients and there family's.
