The triangle beepy thing when one tries to send a PM!

Ana Mon 26-Nov-12 20:23:40

Did it ever stop? I think the beep did, but that message hasn't gone...what does it mean???

Anne58 Mon 26-Nov-12 20:26:01

I just tried to PM you, Ana , did you get it? (Funnily enough, the beep type thing doesn't happen if I turn the sound off, can't think why grin )

Ana Mon 26-Nov-12 20:37:59

Yes, thanks - twice! grin

Anne58 Mon 26-Nov-12 20:39:37

I thought that might be the case! When will it be sorted? It is very disconcerting. Answers on a postcard please!

Hello! Beeps? Double messages? confused We'll sort it out! Be back to you soon.

Anne58 Mon 26-Nov-12 20:51:56

Thank you Lara , perhaps "beep" insn't quite the right word, but it sort of goes "da DAH" , with a slightly raised inflection on the second "dah", in a sort of asking a question or with an Australian inflexion sort of thing.

LaraGransnet (GNHQ) Mon 26-Nov-12 21:07:37

Triangular beeps and Australian da DAH's. Got it. grin

Anne58 Mon 26-Nov-12 21:10:09

Thought you would, an intelligent girl like you!

Anne58 Mon 26-Nov-12 21:44:56

Lara, as per my PM, it seems ok when repling to one, but clicking on your name in the thread and sending a PM that way gets the sign and the Aussie beep!

Our tech wizards are addressing the Aussie beeps and double messages some of you are experiencing. We'll have it sorted soon - fair dinkum. ;)

Anne58 Mon 26-Nov-12 22:05:09

I 'spect they'll be flat out like a lizard drinking!

Mishap Mon 26-Nov-12 22:25:00

Whein I try and send a pm I get an empty box appearing with teh word OK in teh corner - I just click OK! There is no indication that the message has been sent, so I check in the sentbox to see if it has gone. It usually has.

I also do not know how to access my messages - when I want to correspond with someone I have to find a message from them and use the pm option. Is there another way to get into my messages please?

Anne58 Mon 26-Nov-12 22:26:46

Mishap when you are logged in, just go to "Inbox", to the right of the "Log In/Log Out" box up there ^

annodomini Mon 26-Nov-12 22:28:49

Um, Mishap, go to your in box and click on 'new message', or have I misunderstood your problem?

Ella46 Tue 27-Nov-12 10:21:36

I've also had the 'problem with server' thingy AGAIN when Gransnet just disappears when I'm changing threads!

Mishap Tue 27-Nov-12 10:24:27

Thanks phoenix - am I blind or what!!?

Anne58 Tue 27-Nov-12 10:26:28

I thought I was having vision problems a moment ago when Marice walked on the keyboard, but Ana has sorted it!

Ana Tue 27-Nov-12 22:08:00

Ella, I seem to be having a similar problem - I've only just realised it's only when I'm on Gransnet. Everything freezes and a box comes up saying there's a problem with the Webpage and it'll have to reconnect. This has been happening regularly over the past week or so.

Anne58 Tue 27-Nov-12 22:59:25

Yes, Ana I do believe that there be dark doin's afoot on this 'ere Gransnet.

Ana Tue 27-Nov-12 23:02:25

Aaaargh! shock

Anne58 Tue 27-Nov-12 23:12:44

Sorry? Did you yell something, and if so was it directed a moi? grin

Ana Tue 27-Nov-12 23:15:18

Non - a GNHQ! grin

Anne58 Tue 27-Nov-12 23:39:22

Yes, it's doing it again tonight isn't it?

Ana Thu 29-Nov-12 19:39:52

Ella, are you still having problems when changing threads? I am - at least three times a day my PC freezes and the box comes up saying there's a problem and it'll have to reconnect. Is it just the two of us with this problem? confused
