Darn, Janet, I was looking forward to reading your "wonderings."
I just posted at another board and someone said the same thing happens to her.
It happens to me about 75% of the time, Janet....and had been for nearly a year now!
Ok here goes.
One of the things I was wondering about was ringtones for the cell phone.
Sounds easy right?
Well I went to Tracfone to download some and I knew it would take minutes
off my time but it would be a one time thing....
But I didn't do it, why? Well because they had package A and B and so on
but you don't know what is in there. I don't know a 100 ring tones or so?
I don't want that many I just want my old Nokia tone. It is not a hard question.
So I thought I will go to some of the free places to download these things.
YEAH!! I found it but not sure if it is exact because it don't let you hear it first....
So went to another one and there I could hear the tone with a gutiar and I love it I will
get that one. So I have to sign up for an account, I read the privacy and terms and
I am do not like what I read about them putting not only their cookie on my computer but other companies
too....no way is that going to happen...
So they said I could download right to my phone....oh sure not only would they have cookies
on my computer but they would waste my minutes with companies sending me ads.
All I want is one ringtone. I am not asking to steal the secrets of the universe just one
ringtone. I will pay for it....if you don't send my number all over the country....I don't want to
have to change phones and get one that I can get a spam filter on for Heaven's sake....
Anyway that was one of my wonderings.
If anyone knows a good way to get ring tones without it being a hassle please let me know.
And I have to thank I think Kt for telling me how to put email addresses into my phone.
I am not happy about even having a cell phone while I wouldn't want to be without it now
we don't use it very much, I can't justify getting a phone with a monthly plan when I have
so many minutes now... and even though I got a yearly card it is due in July so I will buy one that gives me another year and
450 minutes which turns into 900 cause I have double minutes for life...Oh, my old age is
complicated....lol

You
I always pick if I have a choice when installing too...even my updates.. I still have the weather channel in my add and remove that can't be removed unless I go into the registry....I got that from Trillian. Really made me mad cause I could have sworn I unchecked it when I went to install.......They told me I should have made sure. I got rid of it but it is still listed.
Would be nice if they would just tell you that unless you pay for our service or software you are going to get this and this if you don't like it don't download....lol Wait that is to simple isn't it?
I was having trouble downloading from Rapidshare, so when I emailed them they said if I had a premium account that I could download as much as I wanted and it would be faster.. I can download a lot but faster I don't think so......except it does download a lot faster with Chrome.. It has a download manager not what I like because it made me a new download folder and don't let me choose where things go but I just go in and move things around but it is a lot faster when you want to download 100MB of stuff....
The ringtones in my phone I think there were 30-40 of them but they were all pretty much the same tonage if you know what I mean. Sounded like they take the same tune and put the accents in different places in other words they are dull..lol
I guess I can get over it just think the phones should be easier to use.....
Thanks.

Janet my biggest problem at ivillage is getting in. Some days I just can't get in. Then sometimes when I try to read a post, it's like a "refresh" button is stuck. That is if the post even opens for me.
Oh boy, that sounds familiar too, Shirley Sue!
KT I have the same problems and I have Windows Vista.
I look at it this way, they have blamed every part of my computer when I had XP, now it is Vista's fault? Well since it happens to so many ( know I have been told that I am about the ONLY one) that it has nothing to do with XP or Vista....
If I could and yes I would miss the fancy stuff I would blink us back to the old way of posting we
