Cearbhall highlighted the problem , about sending out two mails for the
Cork meeting on 16th January.
He normally goes to the previous meeting notes, and removes the copy, then
pastes in the new meeting copy, but this time a number of people like
Paul/Jackie, got a message from the previous weeks meeting rather then the
current notes.
Paul contacted Cearbhall about this, and he contacted the organiser of the
free lists (John Madden, who was migrating the mail at that moment, but this
had nothing to do with the problem.
Cearbhall has promised to do the notes from the beginning next week, rather
than use his short cut method.
Martin updated us regarding his Eir com e mailing address for his phone, it
seems that all he had to do was to add his eircom mailing address to his
smart phone, you can have a number of e mailing addresses on your mobile
phone.
There was a problem in co hosting the meeting this morning, so a small
course will be done by a number of people with Declan this afternoon, to
train some people in the art of co hosting a Zoom meeting.
Also the ringing bell only rang when the person was admitted into the
meeting, and did not go off while they were in the waiting room.
There was a good discussion on short cuts for Outlook 365,
These were control plus letter y for the various folders, and shift plus
f6 to go up and down the folders.
Control plus number 1 for mails. Control plus number 2 for using the calendar
and
Control plus number 3 for your contacts.
One can also customise your mails by using the jaws key plus f2 , and then
you can get rid off useless information like the size of the mail, and other
irritating information.
Mary cannot get radio stations like BBC radio 4 using SIRI,. Siri SAYS I
cannot play that station. She tried again using different instructions like
Siri play bbc 4 from tune in, but no matter what she tried , Siri, would not
play the station.
Perhaps after Brexit, some stations have been removed, or it's a bug from
recent ios updates.
Some people are going to look into Mary's problems.
Bert tried using Siri, and Siri, said that his Tune in settings needed to be
updated, and did he wanted them updated?
Bert said yes, and then asked Siri to play bbc radio 4 and it indeed played
the station.
Several people complained about getting Alexa to play RTE radio 1, you say
alexa play rte radio 1, and repeat the instructions for several minutes
before it starts to play,
While other radio stations play immediately on asking Alexa.
Noreen also complained about asking Alexa to stop playing, but her
instructions are ignored for a long time before ALEXA stops playing.
It could be that the WIFI systems are overloaded at present due to the
pandemic. .
Cearbhall has trouble in using Safari browser on his iPhone 7. Bert suggested
he opens safari, and go down to the bottom right, and when he hears tabs, to
double tap the tabs and this will clear his recent history, and leave a
clean space to enter the text for what he is looking for, like ground rents.
Eamon cleaned up his icons and put them into a folder. But when he tried
to delete the icons from his desktop they would not delete.
Cearbhall said that these icons were only short cuts and not the real files,
so he must go to the short cuts folders to delete the icons.
Martha explained that if one has credits from audible, one
can ask Alexa to order a book of their choice. She can do this and place the
book into your library,
And you can listen to your new book on your smart phone or through using
Alexa.
Regards
Paul
