I'mThrowing My Computer Into Edgartown Harbor

Sick of it all. Honest to God.

Every day it's something. Something that should take 10 seconds runs into too many minutes.

A partial list:

YouTubes don't play on Firefox

YouTubes do play on Safari, but I can't upload to SM via Safari.

I am limited to one uploader (HTML, I think) for SM on FF.

iTunes asks me for log in credentials every time I try to listen to my favorite Internet radio station even though I've clicked Remember Password.

etc. etc. etc.

The latest, today: I've created a gallery, when I try to sort the images, I click "sort," and I am taken back to my home page.

I am sick and tired of all the frustration that is created by and the time that is wasted on these damn machines.

Does anyone know why I can't sort my gallery? And/or how to fix it.

Thank you.

Andy

Sorry you have computer troubles! We can help. How about a link to the gallery you are trying to sort? And, exactly what method/tool are you using to sort, and how are you trying to sort?

Thanks, Andy. I was just about to say that I finally got it working. It was an auto-sort issue. The gallery was set on auto-sort, when the dialog asked me if I wanted to set it on manual, I said yes (as I've done a million times before with no problems) but it only took me to the home page. I fixed it by removing auto-sort in gallery settings.

it's not just this - it's everything, and drip by drip by torturous drip, it all adds up. I upgraded my phone to Ice Cream Sandwich a couple of days ago and I lost at least an hour of my life trying to figure out how to access my e-mails, which included speaking with at least 2 so-called knowledgeable techies who had no idea where the security settings were located. I'm just done done done with all of this. All this clicking, waiting, more clicking, calling tech support, e-mailing tech-support, etc etc etc. Life is too short!!!

Thanks for your reply :-)
