Locked keyboard!! Heeeeelp please

Hi, to put your mind at rest, there is no sharing of anything except bluetooth. I hardly ever use it these days now I have an iphone and I can download photos easily, so I have disabled that option!

At this late stage, it may be a wierd question, but how do I delete messages from console? I can clear the list without altering anything, but I think I should be able to delete them. I highlight lines but the move to trash icon stays grey.

I would delete via the omni-sweep dialogue box but I'm terrified that I'll delete something vital. I've cleaned up files a little as you suggested, there is now 4.06 GB now!!

Tomcat still opens when I click on the email link to get to this page, still no clue why 😟

Hi, long time no speak! Sorry to leave the thread for a while, I have had too many things interfering with my private time!

With the Tomcat thing, I cannot find out why this happens, since it is intermittent and I'm not overly bothered by the inconvenience of not being able to open pages from a link occasionally, I'm using my desktop to contact you here today, I accessed this page via the link from email so I'll look at the settings to see if I can see a difference and amend accordingly - if I can see what's different! I'm awaiting an external hard drive to back up all my stuff, then perhaps I can reset the iBook to factory settings? Would this work? Can I do that and if so how? Would this erase all my personal settings/personal details/everything I would rather no one could access if I scrapped the machine? I think it is probably nearing the end of it's life so I want to be ready if anything catastrophic happens!

I can't tell you how grateful I am for all your help and suggestions so far, thank you

Hi, thanks for all the above! I bought the iBook second hand so no installation disks!

I think I will have a go at the 2nd option you suggest!!

I'll let you know how it goes.

As an aside, how do I set my preferences on here so I don't get dozens of emails from all these discussion threads? I have every choice set as 'no' but I still can't stop them. Obviously I want to hear answers to my questions, but only my topics. It's driving me nuts :(

Thanks for all your help and suggestions so far.

Hi, yes I have saved everything I've selected. I have put 'no' to all the email notification choices. I have looked at all the pages associated with 'my stuff' and chosen as complete privacy as I can select. I only wish to receive notification of discussions I have initiated but I cannot see where else I can veto email contact!! I would be grateful for any hints. I have not yet had a chance to delete my account on my iBook. Hopefully I can do that this week. Thanks again. Caroline.
