So I am currently writing this whilst sitting in my dressing gown, pretty much in naked underneath having been summoned by my dad to help sort his phone.
Why do men insist on getting top of the range technology, e.g. iPhone's, laptops, TV's etc. (like I said toys) if they can't work them!?!? My bampa was the same, constantly buying the newest and latest things technology had to offer and then he'd call me up asking if I could pop round and set it up!!
My Dad is exactly the same. He's currently trying to sync his AOL (don't ask, we live in the UK and have no need for AOL) account to his phone so he can connect with icloud. Sounds simple enough right? Wrong. He can't receive any e-mails on this account. He can send them out, as he's proven by the 10 new e-mails in my inbox, he just can't get any. I've told him it's probably because of the different programs each site runs on and that it'd be easier just to set him up with a Gmail account but he wont listen.
And as I'm typing I'm hearing the constant questions of "what does that mean?" or "what's an IP address?" or "what the hell am I doing?!?" to the final acceptance, "I don't understand any of this!" All I'm saying is if you don't understand, go to a professional not your daughter and not at half midnight when she's just got home from work and hasn't had a cuppa yet!!
Wish me luck!!
XOXO

Oh now he's found out he can personalise his e-mail page! Lord help me!!
