Hi Anne.
Thanks for your offer of help but after three days banging my head, I've
decided to turn the Mac off and walk away for a spell.
I just seem to be making matters worse, left to my own devices.
I've recently arranged one-to-one training from a blind Apple user who is
employed by SITE Glasgow, but he will not be able to make an appointment for a
week or so.
He's only a young guy and fantastic with my Macbook. He made it look so easy,
hahaha.
I think I'll just have a break for a spell and perhaps get your help if it
would not be any bother, later. I'll hold onto your message.
You know Anne, this is a great list. I've had offers of help from Newzeland,
America, London and now France. Howe's that!
Very best wishes.
Andy.

Hello Andy,
I’m in France and I have free phone calls to the UK, so if you’d like me to
help you by phone, e-mail me at:
a...@anarchie.org.uk
and give me your fixed phone number and I’ll try to get you online.
Cheers,
Anne

Hi Simon, Andrew, others and Steve.
Thankyou all for offering me your help with Skype or facebook or by email,
in respect to helping me play audio content on my Mac.
One of the big attractions for me to get a Macbook was because I could talk
with my family in Sydney and Canada by using Facetime.
Unfortunately, I've not progressed far enough to set these facilities up.
The main reason is that I cannot connect to the internet on my Macbook.
Other devices such as my Iphone, my Wife's Dell lap-top and my Window 7
computer are all coping with the wired or wy fy facilities of my roughter, so
the problems I am having lay within my Macbook.
Here is what is happening.
When I boot up my Macbook and after the standard introduction, I get the
following message:
"Application Alert - System Dialogue - - This Mac cannot connect to Icloud
because of a problem with meikle.ai...@btinternet.com". "Open System
Preferences of Icloud to fix this problem"
So obviously I'm not on-line and before I can go further in my learning
with music, I really need to be able to resolve this.
Despite several attempts at going into System Preferences, I just end up in
a maize.
You see, I simply don't have the knowledge or skills to mess around in
there.
If this makes my position a little clearer, then that's great and I'd
welcome any advice.
I have however managed to get one-to one help from SITE Glasgow shortly but
because I'm going to be on holiday for a week, I cannot get this support for a
few weeks.
I was actually thinking of taking my Macbook to Spain with me on holiday
and spend most evenings going through, Janet Ingber's wonderful book.
Perhaps I may well yet. I go on holiday on 21 May for 1 week, so perhaps I
can resolve this issue befor then.
Very best wishes and thanks again for your on-going support.
Very best wishes.
Andy.
From Scotland with Love.
