One possibility, if you have two accounts, is that your browser cache is getting confused, especially if it was set to 'remember me' for the old account.

Try clearing the cache.

If you are using Google , on the top right corner of the Google page there are three bars, click on them and you will get a table and then scroll down and see, 'History' click on that and set how far back you want to clear history. I set it to clear history as far back as possible, 'The beginning of time'.

Cache cleared.

Join the club – membership fee is whatever you paid for the collection of mental misery purveyed by Microsoft under the guise of 'computer'.

These things are the spawn of the Devil! I have, to my eternal shame, used them since the early 90's and have the 'rage lines' to show for it. How ANY system based solely on the transposition of a series of 0s and 1s can generate so much misery is beyond me.

I have just spent 4 days trying to re-instate internet access on my desktop. Microsoft's 'Help' system equates to motorcycle ashtrays. Looking up the problem on Google generated 19 pages of similar misery but with a variety of solutions – none of which worked for me. The eventual answer was so convoluted as to defy simple description and involved the use of an Android tablet, the output of an electronics 'fiddler' in the US of A and a cable 'hook-up' that I hadn't used for about ten years! Joseph Heller MUST have worked for Microsoft!!

Yes, I could have migrated to Ubuntu or similar or shelled out even more cash for the rip-off delights of Apple (Do a search for 'Apple Mac problems&#39 but sticking with something which is vaguely familiar has its 'attractions'.

My advice? … Most helpful has been the aviation forum Pprune.org, which has a Computer sub-forum with inputs from a number of people who demonstrably understand these things. They don't have all the answers but have, over the years, dragged me from confused beginner to confused long-time user

Stick with it, Roger – it won't get any better but you will become accustomed to the frustration and anger!

Yeah, Thanks For The Mammeries, Roger.

Bill,

Only 20+ years of Os and 1s misery, you are a mere beginner, those damn things have been around since the middle of the last century

Now then – my computer is ( like me some would say) reaching the end of it's useful life. If it could groan it would. Now all my kids are artists / designers and they say "Dad – for goodness sake get a Mac" Now as it hasn't been raining recently I assume they mean one of those Apple thingies. So then given that a fruity computer is about twice the price of a new version of the comfortable slow old windows machine should I take their advice?

For the first time in a long time I wasted ten minutes reading the article you linked to Len.

The bottom line and one that has been true for many years, the PC is by far and away better value. You are not locked in either, which makes me crazy.

I once owned a good number of Mackintosh Compfusers (I actually skipped a MkII – threw it away, which was a bit of a clanger) and I am really pleased I no longer have to fork out the annual upgrades to Quark and Creative Suite. What a swizz that is.

My missus used to own the good old iPhone but when the last "update" bricked it (Didn't-Want-To-Know at apple) has gone to a Samsung Galaxy and thinks it's great. I love the Android OS and I love my Samsung Galaxy. If it has a fault, the screen is very fragile. I am up to my third screen and this one is cracked and I just cant be bothered changing it. You can't break it any more, It is broken! This works for me. YMMV.
