Three Questions! Does Anybody Still Use.....

[boatbuilder]

1. Windows XP, or do you have access to a computer running XP?

2. If so, do you experience any problems viewing this forum on it?

3. Also, in XP, if you click this LINK do you get a picture opening in a new tab?

This is a serious question and I will explain why I ask, when I have had an answer to all three of these questions from somebody.

Thank you!

1. I have access to Windows XP.

2. I have no problems viewing the forum.

3. I get a picture opening in a new window. Looks like it is possibly a picture from ISS.

Thank you, Morty. I will explain.

I am a member of a literary forum and I post images which I link from one of my other domains as they don't permit image uploads, only links. (it runs the same phpBB software as this forum as well).

The guy who runs the forum says he can't see my images but has said he only has an old computer running XP and believes it could be something to do with that. Personally I think his computer has other problems. My photos on this other domain of mine are on the same server as MyLowestoft and nobody else has this problem viewing my images on the other forum. I don't know if any of them use XP other than the chap who runs the forum and I don't want to raise the issue on the forum itself. I just needed confirmation of what you have told me from another XP user.

Once again, thanks for your response, and yes it is an image from the ISS.

Seagull. You will have to reset your iPad using the instructions on this page. https://support.apple.com/bg-bg/HT204306

You will lose ALL your data and settings. If you have a back-up on your computer you will be able to restore the back-up.

Best of luck.
