Our email has been through Yahoo for years. I’ve never seen it refuse to accept a file. I spent hours trying different variations and was only able to send the file after saving it as a Power Point compatible file. The problem is solved now, she just saves her projects in that format now.

She still cannot upload assignments performed on the University’s learning center using the Mac. She took the Mac to school and the IS department could not make it work either. I bought her an inexpensive Win 7 notebook that she uses for that purpose. She hates it but it works. The whole concept of making a directory and telling the program to save her files there just makes her angry. She refuses to search for the appropriate directory to open or upload the files.

I’ll hand it to Apple, she has no fear pushing button on the Mac but Windows intimidates her.

Since I have your ear, how do I reset an iPod Touch? My daughter did something to it when she tried to update her music. It now won’t work and tells her she needs to reset the iPod. When she hits the reset button, it spends about 5 minutes with a bar going from 0 to 100% done, then says there was an error and goes back to the original error message and reset button. She has tried doing the two button push on the iPod but that didn’t change anything.

I have used Yahoo Mail, with the MAIL app and it handles all file formats I throw at it... but I haven't used the online email system from Yahoo. I have not yet had time to research at I promised you I would. Sorry about that, Doc. I will get to it as soon as things get down from a roar to a dull roar around here.

Have you shut it down completely by holding down the button on the top for five seconds them using the red slider to shut down? The one time I had a problem with my iPhone, I had to do that a couple of times to get it to reset. No problems since.
