Argh! Both Microsoft Word2003 and Open Office are locking up on my alumni ezine. Argh! I was able to finish with Zoho Web-based word processor. Saved the issue. Seems to work nicely.
XPfails – luggable – GADWIN PRINT SCREEN v3.5 – It has to be XP!
Friday, February 23, 2007For some reason, after several months of use, now when I start GPS35, it doesn’t appear to “do” anything. It doesn’t splash. It takes memory. (I can see it in XP’s process list.) But, it just doesn’t do anything anymore. I’ve uniunstalled and reinstalled. Help?
XPfails – luggable – BLOGDESK locks up posting
Monday, February 19, 2007The post was lost. And, eventually the box locked. Argh!
XPfails – luggable – BLOGDESK failed or xp?
Friday, February 16, 2007Today, I was using blogdesk. I composed a post and sent it to wordpress. BLOGDESK just sat there. I assume trying to connect. Breaking the cycle put the whole box into a stoppage. Reboot. A long cycle because it was applying maintenance. Argh! So, what was the failure? All I know is that BLOGDESK lost my post. Not that is was so valuable. More so that I forgot to save a draft before it published. It should do that. Everything appears to be working now?
XPfails – luggable – OUTLOOK locks up; Plaxo suspect?
Tuesday, February 13, 2007Outlook with Plaxo Update were “not responding”. I suspect that was the problem again.
XPfails – luggable – Looks like Plaxo?
Monday, February 12, 2007It appears that Plaxo went awol. The first indication of trouble was when a editpro project wouldn’t open. From that point, every think went down hill from there. Reboot. And try again?
XPfails – luggable – Microsoft WORD kludges my doc
Saturday, February 3, 2007I was doing the alumni ezine. As I was finishing the index, poof! WORD decided I needed a new page placed along side the first page. In effect, it folded my doc as if it was a two column newspaper.
I fired up Open Office and could see some of the problems.
I wriggled around like a dead fish.
Finally I had the idea of saving it as an RTF. That didn’t clear the problem but it put me on the track of a solution.
I saved it as WORD60 format. Then, when I reopened it I could delete the break.
Argh.
Very very ugly.
XPfails – luggable – Slow Down
Wednesday, January 31, 2007Luggable has just slowed to a crawl. Maybe a reboot will clear it?
XPfails – luggable – mouse unresponsive
Sunday, January 28, 2007woke up this morning, always a good thing, to find an unresponsive mouse. Reboot. Seems like the mttf is a day. Less if I exercise it. Argh!
