LD150, Thanks a lot for your time and effort. I had a couple of lengthy chats with Apple support but unfortunately nothing was working. One of the chaps a lovely guy called Sergio tried his best but to no avail. He was going to arrange an email meeting with me to sort it out. He needed time to work out a plan so suggested next Tuesday which I'm afraid is no use to me. I told him I needed it fixed now not next week and asked him if I went into the Apple store today, would they be able to fix it....in his opinion? He said they probably would, so I made an appointment for later in the day at the Genius Bar.
This was the outcome....
