    It’s usually the result of an update on your system ... happened to me on another forum yesterday ... got there in the end 😀

    I never sign out, and it only happens when there's an update, as Dove said.

    Very odd VG  :/
    Is it the device you use, do you think?

    If your device is running Windows 10, Microsoft release updates on the 2nd tuesday of the month, so we get them on the wednesday morning. 
    They don't necessarily release updates every month though

    Oh @Pete8,  I only have a little old Kindle Fire! Nothing as hi tech as a proper computer!!  It's got no camera either,so I can't show a picture of my drooping Clemmies 😁
    What's annoying is there's a newer one with a camera in the drawer,but I might lose all my passwords and email addresses.I really don't know what I'm doing!!😁
    Think i need a computer wizz to get me out of this situation,it's obviously too ancient to be efficient now! It's also a bit hit and miss with charging,even though it's got a new one.

    Why don’t you take your new tablet and the old one into a computer shop, they will transfer everything and set it up for you. They don’t charge very much.
    I've just had all my data and hundreds of photos transferred from laptop to iPad.

    These days, generally, your passwords, emails etc are stored in the 'cloud' and not on your device. As Lyn says, there's not really much to it.
    If there's a local PC fixer they will likely be able to help - even though it's not a PC.
    Then you'll be able to post photos too! :)
