Kay: Oh my. I'll admit that I've done that myself. Thought I had uploaded to my computer, put the card back in and hit the format button to clear the card. My "what was I thinking" moment. Not to mention, forgetting to put the card back in the camera and heading out to the garden and wondering why the camera won't work. My "duh" moment. LOL. Marg: Scary not to find pictures. I hope when I can get back in I have all of mine otherwise this winter I'll be uploading photos all over again. Julia

You didn't say what type of internet connection/ set up you have. If you have a router behind a modem, the router is losing it's IP address for some reason. A hard restart will reset the IP address, i.e., pull the power cord for a minute or two. If you have a wireless router, be sure it's not trying to connect on a neighbors router, which if not encrypted may be strong enough for the computer to see it, but too weak for it to piggyback on. A neighbor of mine has a Mac that wants nothing more than to hitch a ride on my Airport Express, which isn't encrypted, as all it does is stream music. This is fine, unless the dog knocks the Airport out of the wall outlet and then she loses her internet connection. I'd also really like to use it to boost my encrypted wireless range (on a PC), but my Airport is also smitten with the neighbor's Mac. Once my neighbor gets back from vacation, I have to end this computer tryst (the neighbor is 83 and only has a computer because her kids/grandkids insist she use email, only after multiple attempts at "fixing" her DNS errors -computer not found-, did the true cause dawn on me). The previous responses all assumed you have dialup. If you have DSL or cable internet service, you have a separate issue, although still a connection issue.

urlee, I know what you mean about dialup. I just got high speed in February. I did find the answer to my problem with OE. Just on the off chance something might show up I checked my e-mail settings at my server for my e-mail. When I clicked the button to make changes it showed I had nine letters (shown as dots) in my password, but I knew it should have only 8. I deleted what was there and re-entered my password and saved it. I then went to OE and low and behold it worked. I have no explanation how the password could have gotten changed since it has worked since Feb. when I got high speed and they helped me set up OE as my e-mail. I don't know what my friend did to give me a little more speed, but I don't think he would have been in my server website. Go figure? I am just glad I found it, and it is working. Jane PS: No one is touching my settings or whatever again.
