We might be close to finding a solution, a bitsy solution to be sure but a solution is a solution, as long as it keeps working. More work to do tomorrow on my part, so shall be here at least until the quiz tomorrow.
Sadly, to those commenting - if I go to bed soon, I cannot approve comments, so they'll have to wait until the morn. Downside of this Blogger site.
Along the way, I discovered something quite interesting. I checked my Google account security on my ipad and among other things, it listed four devices which had accessed the account yesterday and today. One was this laptop I'm on now, another was the laptop I was on yesterday and they checked out fine.
However, it listed my current device - that is, the ipad I was on - as a Mac and not just that but it was from my local area. Thing was - I was not on a Mac, I was on an ipad. There was a fourth device called an ipad UK, no local area. I did not touch the laptops as they were fine but I signed out of both the Mac and ipad.
Again at the laptop, Google listed two devices now - both the laptops. Good. I now changed passwords.
Going back to my one and only ipad, I signed in and it showed as ipad UK, nothing local. So what was this Mac? I did have a Mac years ago but it has not been used and Google say that this Mac was currently being used. I have the IP address of it and it's not mine.
So this has been my fun evening, hope yours was as rivetting.
