  1. If the content is something that I don't feel like putting off till later I'll usually enable Hola! proxy extension and select Singapore to jump around the issue. Usually works.

    Thank you. Should have thought of that. Turned on Hola! and things are now working just fine. It's obviously a local network problem which no doubt will get fixed in time.

    Nice to hear that you solved it, and RichCor clap2.gif That's a perfect example of thinking outside of the box !! Not using Hola just for iPlayer but also for general browsing. wai.gif

  2. No problems here with Google Maps and Google Search on TOT.

    Odd, given that I'm with TOT too.

    It sounds corny but reboot / restart your router, maybe the IP Addresses that has been issued by TOT to your Router is causing your problems. A reboot is the easiest way to get a new address.

    Good Luck

  3. No problems here with Google Maps and Google Search on TOT.

    Since a couple of hours I have been planning our next trip through Europe (renting a camper van) with Google Maps and Google Search and no problems what so ever.

    Is it over yet ? Nope Jomtien is like a big wet party zone , maybe it will last until midnight.

    After sunset it usually quietens down quickly in residential areas - but stay away from bar areas - they tend to go on until midnight or longer.

  5. I have the same problem with another program to watch news headlines, it's cache was over 3 Gb, nowhere I could find how to remove the cache, so I just uninstalled it and reloaded it via iCloud.

    It's not a perfect solution but at least it works.

    The TV app has a clear cache under settings so it's possible to do.

  6. sort out the driving lessons first...

    Good idea, but she will pass the driving test anyway biggrin.png

    A friends niece in BKK got her license after 3 failed practical exams (and she failed miserably), she didn't have any driving experience whatsoever when she did the exams.

    After the 3rd Failed attempt they just gave her the license sad.png

    But if someone can explain a way to get the taskbar (bottom) to show all the time and have x-to-close at top right of all windows it would be a big help. I just find it so frustrating starting a new program when something opens in full screen, as the taskbar and start button disappear.

    To have the Taskbar show all the time,

    Right Click on the Taskbar

    Select Properties

    Click on the Tab Bar "Taskbar"

    Deselect there "Auto-hide the Taskbar"

    To have Taskbar shown even in the Tile Screen you have to install Windows 8.1 Update 1

    That will make the "Tile Screen" look like this

  8. For viewing images install irfanview and after install right click on a image and select open with and select or browse to the place where irfanview has been installed (usually C:\Program Files(x86)\irfanview), also make sure that you select "use this as default"

    This will make sure that when you open a image file that its not opened full screen but in irfanview.

  9. Windows 8.1 is by far the most secure and fastest Windows I've found yet. There is no reason not to install it, even if you don't like the new interface.

    Classic shell will do the job.

    I cannot see the point of downgrading, it is a wasteful and counter-productive exercise.

    My gf has Windows 8 and I managed to do something that showed a home screen similar to Windows 7, but the sliders keep sliding across when I don't want them to. Not sure what I do, but may accidentally touch a key and they just slide out. How do I get the classic look? Can I get it with the sliders disabled?

    Anyway, if I want Windows 8, I still have the same problem, because no-one here seems to that either. Dell laptops here have Linux, so I wouldn't be downgrading. So I'd still need a genuine Windows 8. People in the shops look at me like I've gone crazy when I say I want genuine software, They don't understand why.

    InvadeIT has the Genuine Windows 8.1 Retail Version.

    This is what I bought after my Win 7 License Key problems
