Which TS-er lives in Delaware?

June:  The PM button is to send a Private Message to any board member;  useful if you don't have an email address, or if the member prefers to keep address private.  Your email address will display in the PM, but you won't see the receipent's email address.

And it it ALWAYS proper to start a new message;  we do tend to "hijack" threads   and sometimes the origial topic gets lost.

For unsubscribing, at the top of each page is a link "My Controls".  Go to it, and on the left hand side, about half way down is "Subscriptions".  Click on "View Topics" and choose which topics you would like to unsubscribe from (yeah, my grammer ain't none too good), and do the same with "View Forums".  I'd suspicion that you've acidentaly click on "Track this topic" or "Subscribe to this forum" at the bottom of one of the thread pages.

   I haven't typed that much in some time.

Jenny, thank you so much for your help..I will undo  my errors right away...I am  receiving quite  a bit of extra email, so I have been keeping someone busy unintentionally.

Hi June,

The eMac is one of the machines (flat panel iMacs also) that uses the power button on the unit to restart, sleep, shut down in emergency.

Here are some uses:

Sleep:
Press the power button for 1 second to put the computer to sleep. To wake the computer from sleep, press the power button for less than one second or press any key on the keyboard.

Shut down:
To shut down the computer, select Shut Down from the Apple menu (Mac OS X) or from the Special menu (Mac OS 9). You will be prompted to save any unsaved documents.

If the computer is unresponsive, you can force the computer to shut down by pressing the power button and holding it for at least 5 seconds. Important: Information in any unsaved documents may be lost.

Keyboard commands can restart but not start up computer.

Here is the Apple discussion board for eMac users. You might want to read some of the threads for insight.

June:  I told a small untruth.  The sender's email address does NOT show in a PM.

It is a way for communicating "off board" with any member allowing private messages without either having to disclose an email.

We've set the board to not show email addresses of any one for privacy concerns.  However, if you wish to share your address with another member, you can email through the board software and the sender's email IS shown.

Clear as mud?

Krissel..thank you so much for the clickable..I will investigate it promptly. My reason for asking for keyboard shut downs is because one day my mouse suddenly hid the cursor and I had no recourse but to pull the power plug. Frightening to say the least..not knowing what damage I may do. Fortunately all was well.

Jenny, I don't think you would ever tell an untruth..it was just a minor error.  You are very kind and patient.

"you can email through the board software and the sender's email IS shown."

Sent that to you Jennie.
