This morning, all the mail I had deleted since early 2010, showed up on my iPad which I didn't purchase until November 2012 under my AOL screen name. I did have some mail that I never deleted from AOL as I kept meaning to sort thru it and save good jokes and recipes, but how could this have happened? It was still on AOL, too. Now I have zero Old Mail and Recently Deleted Mail. and btw, if I never thanked those of you who wrote to me when our daughter in law was dying last year, thank you sdo very much for your kinds words. |

Its called synchronizing! My Galaxy tablet does this also! On my Galaxy I turned this feature off because the tablet was grabbing everything off my laptop. Even photos! The problem was that my tablet was left without sufficient memory. |

Whoever knows what goes on in cyberspace??!!! All of our information is floating around out there, somewhere, and God know where it might pop up next. I was just now trying to re-activate my TracFone, going through all of the online rigamarole. I was working fine until I got to the very last page which said that they had detected an issue with my phone and I must press the enter button on my phone, after which a certain screen would pop up (which it never did). gaah.gif All of this time I had been going back and forth between clicking on my computer, which then told me to push a certain button on my phone, etc. etc. --- While in the process of trying to backtrack to correct whatever the problem was, my bloody phone shuts itself off!! :praying.gif: Frustrated to no end, and being sure I had lost everything, I gingerly turned my phone back on and BINGO. smiley-airhorn-1.gif The phone was reactivated and airmiles had been added. :appl.gif: |

Similar: I now use Windows Live Mail, which includes a very basic calendar which partner uses, and it must all be linked to an e-mail address for some reason. So then I went to the relatively unused e-mail Inbox on an MSN site I rarely use from the days of dial-up, and, voila, every single appointment ever entered over several months came into this Inbox as an individual piece of mail. Hundreds and hundred of useless items. Took me quite a while to sort through the hundreds of pieces of mail, some of which I wanted to keep. Somehow I broke the link but I don't remember how.
