[lace-chat] Help with downloads on AOL
Please PM me the answers as I am not currently subscribed to Chat Digest. I'm sure there must be someone on Arachne running on Windows 8 and AOL who might be able to help me. I've just bought a new lap top and although I have now worked out how to access my AOL account and emails, I have obviously got something wrong as I can't open any attachments. As I am accessing AOL via Google, I am assuming it is the latest version of AOL. It's certainly very different to the version on my old PC which was about 10 years old. When I open a post with an Attachment, there is a little green bar for each attached item on the top left of the page, just under the subject, with the details of the name and size of the attachment. Logically clicking on this should open the attachment but nothing happens at all. This is completely regardless of the format of the attachment. It's not that I can't read the attachment once open, I can't open them at all; the button bars don't seem to be live. I have also tried to make AOL my homepage which is what I had on my PC; when I click on the 'Make AOL your homepage' option, I get a box which says they see I am using Internet Explorer as my homepage, click here to change to AOL and again, nothing happens. Finally, how to I get an icon for my start page so I don't have to access AOL via Google? Any help in any of these problems would be greatly appreciated.

[lace-chat] Help Please, from all you computer literates ...
Hi All, I am hoping for some help! Before he passed away after last Christmas, my husband updated our address lists, for Christmas cards, letters, birthday, anniversaries etc.However, in his wisdom, he password-protected it, so I can't access the wretched lists. I have tried all the passwords he used, but as yet, no joy! Does anyone have any suggestions?My son assures me that breaking the password is NOT the same as breaking the computer, but I am very much inclined to the latter... Take care of yourselves, and I will hope for some good advice, for which I thank you all in advance. Carol - Suffolk UK 'Deliver us, Lord, from every evil, and grant us peace in our day.'

Re: [lace-chat] help!
Whilst I agree with most of what Joy says, if the finished size really matters you need to make a tension square, the same as you would for knitting. If you Google crochet hook conversion you'll find lots of charts including http://www.vintage-crafts-patterns-designs.com/crochet-hook.html same if you want to find knitting needle conversion charts.

My USA#8 crochet hook is 1.5mm metric -- but you don't need no steenking conversion chart. Just try hooks on your selected thread until you find one that the thread just fills. When you use an oversize hook to loosen your tension, you don't need the same hook the designer used -- your tension isn't his tension. The only time you need to pay attention to the arbitrary numbers on the hooks is when you switch from one hook to another and want the two hooks to match.

That was a tough one to track down (i.e., it took me more than 3 minutes).

[lace-chat] Help with French Lace Museums
Dear List, I've been working on a City Guilds in embroidery for many years here in the U.S. My tutor, Gail Harker (author of several good books on machine embroidery) leads a tour of her U.S. and Canadian students to England each summer, and the last few years this has included crossing the channel to see the Bayeux Tapestry. For this summer's trip she's thinking of spending a bit more time in Normandy, with visits to Alencon or Argentan, and has asked me, her only old lacemaker, for any information I have on museums or lace related events in Normandy. But I've never had the pleasure of visiting Normandy, my links to the museum in Alencon no longer seem to work, and Google has been less than inspiring. So am asking for your help. Gail is asking for the following: 1. Information on any museums with good needlelace collections (these are embroidery students) within a hour or two driving distance of Bayeux. Museum web sites would be wonderful, or a telephone number or address. 2. Any lace or embroidery related demonstrations, workshops, festival, or other activities in Normandy during the first few weeks of October, 2007. 3. A person who might act as a lace guide in Normandy for a day. Many thanks for any help you can provide, Denise Liberio Bellingham, Washington, U.S.A.

[lace-chat] Help needed - Post from USA to UK.
Is there an American arachne who would be kind enough to post on a booklet that my partner bought on e-bay. It is a vintage tractor manual, not very thick I believe. When he bought it he knew that the seller wouldn't post to the UK, but for some reason they won't post to Canada either so we can't get it via Malvary. In return, either I will send some lace things (or anything else for that matter) not available in/expensive in the States or, if preferred, Malvary can send you US funds to repay you. You may think it strange that he would buy something before he knew if he could get it, but he collects (among other things) American Oliver tractors. His first was bought new by his Dad in 1948 and he still has that, and also 4 others. This manual he has bought is for the cultivating equipment that hangs underneath the row-crop style ones. We have two of these, plus a load of bits of equipment, but because they are rare in this country the manuals are even rarer, and if we could find one at all it would cost probably in excess of 50GBP. He got this one for about $12! And it might help him make usable equipment out of the piles of parts that he picked up as a job lot. If anyone can help, please contact me with your address and what you would like in exchange.

Don't know Shirley, but I was always told to upend my empty eggshell and smash it to save a drowning sailor which seemed a contradiction to me.

[lace-chat] Help - What's an ISDN Device?
I deleted what I thought were some unnecessary shortcuts on the desktop and now every time I switch the computer on a warning message pops up telling me I need to install an ISDN device and run the configuration wizard. I'm hoping that one of you experts can tell me how. Very grateful for any help.

Re: [lace-chat] Help please
Tamara.I was going to send you a message anyway about postage. The Royal Mail is proposing changing its way of charging for post, moving from charging by weight only to charging by size *and* weight. This has horrified mail order firms with at least one, a film developing service, reckoning it will go out of business as thits strenght is cheap processing witn minimum postal costs. I imagine this will also affect magazine subscriptions.

Hah! Came back home to 6 messages -- 3 in the private box (one telling me that I now have the new added service. Service!) and 3 on lace. Nothing at all on chat. Yet Alice tells me (one of the 3 message in the private box) there's been a flood of messages on lace... So, I think, OK, Positini is holding them all, thinking they're either spam or virus or something. I go to Postini -- your box is empty it says... No messages in my account -- none in Postini's holding pen, none on my account at the ISP, none (beyond those 6, all sent out before noon) on my puter... it's so frustrating, I could *spit*. Bad enough that I don't get to see my own mesages on the list; now I don't get to see anyone else's...

[lace-chat] help wanted
Dear Lacers, This plea for help is off lace topic but I sure do hope someone comes to the rescue. I need an alphabet and numerals in cross stitch. Particularly an A, L, M, Y and in numerals - 2,0, and 4. A wedding gift that must get finished and into the mail by weeks end.

Re: [lace-chat] Help finding an Australian Lady
Dear Rose, btw - is it PC to refer to people from Australia as Aussies, or is that a term they are allowed to use of themselves, but not others? In sociology, ingroup/outgroup. Just wondering. It's fine by me - as long as you pronounce the ss as a z so it comes out Ozzies and not Ossies :) David in Ballarat Rose-Marie [EMAIL PROTECTED] Abbotsford, BC, Canada where it's too early to tell what kind of a day we're going to have, but seems mild and dry.

[lace-chat] Help - dye ran
My daughter's Russian host family gave her a beautiful woolen shawl. She tried washing it in cold water, but the red from the design ran onto the cream background. It was line-dried. She asked me to ask the list if there is anything she can do to save the shawl. Any suggestions?

[lace-chat] Help for my cousin in UK - Visa card

[lace-chat] Help sought in UK
In message [EMAIL PROTECTED], David Collyer [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes but having now received her Bank statement she finds that she has been charged twice!! She has duly emailed the PRO letting them know etc. We had similar happen in December last year - but in person, at a Little Chef (roadside cafe chain). I thought they had put the card through twice at the time, but wasn't certain. Then, in February, the amount showed up on our statement (usually these things go through in a week at most) - and then three weeks later the same amount appeared on our statement. I keep close watch on the account, so when the second transaction appeared I phoned the *bank* straight away and told them what had happened. They said they would investigate, and write to me with the outcome - which they did - they agreed the second payment was a duplicate and refunded it to our account. The Little Chef then had 60 days to prove that the request for payment was genuine, in which case we would have had to pay the amount, but obviously they were not able to do so. In general, if your bank is on your side, they have much more clout than you do! -- Jane Partridge To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

On Saturday, October 25, 2003, at 07:18 PM, David Collyer wrote: Dear Friends, I have been asked by my cousin to see if any of my bank of wisdom and knowledge can help with her problem. She recently ordered some old Wills from the UK Public Records Office and paid for them with her credit card online. She got the Wills OK, but having now received her Bank statement she finds that she has been charged twice!! She has duly emailed the PRO letting them know etc. But they have repeatedly ignored her emails. What she wants to know is how to take this matter further, and who she should threaten them with - if you get my drift. Hello David Providing she's absolutely sure she's paid twice, and there's no credit showing on the next bank statement, and that she didn't order twice and get two copies of each will, then she is entitled to her money back. Having said that, mistakes do happen but the PRO should acknowledge her emails and get it sorted out. If it was me, living here in England I'd do the following: 1, Put the complaint in writing and send it by snail mail. If no reply within a couple of weeks send it again and perhaps threaten with legal action through the small claims court. 2, Send a copy of the letter to Trading Standards. Trading Standards offices are subsiduries of the County Council or District Council. PRO Kew comes under Surrey County Council. 3, Contact the credit card company. For transactions over 100GBP the credit card company are equally liable along with the customer, for any discrepancies. Whilst a few Wills probably didn't cost 100 pounds I'm sure they would want to know about things that go wrong and aren't put right. 4, I think there could also be an issue with the bank that handles the on-line transactions, maybe the credit card company would be able to help with this too.
