I would use someone else. While having things in one place is nice, you should not be forced to move your domain. The update your name servers is the right choice to maintain your domain and DNS other than at your web provider. It is not hard to do, but can be confusing your first time through. You might want to make contact with your domain registrar for help.

Ok - I vote Katie on to her own island. lol

I have playing with it for a while now, but I have generally found it is the sitting around and pulling your hair our that gets you to know it better. All the new commands can be over whelming at first. Learning it depends on your best method of learning personally. Books were helpful but frequently out of date. Online videos and tutorials were nice, when they worked. I also find when you get stuck that stopping, walking away, coming back and reading documentation over can help. Learning to search specific terms and running them to ground helps. Pick a project and practice it a few times. For example, just install Linux all the way through, then do it again and try different settings. Do it many times so you become comfortable with the process and you get used to seeing commands. Don't be worried about having all the commands memorized. If they are important, toss them in a WIKI or a text file for reference. Once you have the basics down, pick a project like setting up a web server. Complete it start to finish and load a page. Make up some content and update the site. Now back up your data. If the web server does not have a database, maybe setup a SQL server. Back up the SQL server. Delete the test database and then restore it. The problem I have after this is all of the debate about a best practices for certain services. What should be on or off by default - etc. It is very difficult to cover everything, and a lot of the documentation does not give you the finer details.

I feel it most appropriate to only say Water Closet in a British accent. Any other way you say it just does not do it justice.

We could just call it the loo.

You beat me to it.

I was a little surprised they were saying battery life length. Why not just give it a USB cord like on ROKU.

Yeah - most of the Outlook IMAP issues are related to the plugin's - weeks of playing with them with others with the same problem to get it stable.

FILE -> OPTIONS

Then select the Add-Ins tab on the left.

Bottom of the next window - Manage COM-Add-In (GO) Click the GO

Turn Everything off except your AV Software Add-In and the search if you need it.

Also - make sure the setup of the IMAP is rooted in Inbox. Before you do this make sure you have your calendar and contacts backed up as it will delete everything in the account and re-download. (See below for moving calendar and contacts)

FILE -> ACCOUNT SETTINGS -> MANAGE ACCOUNT

MORE SETTINGS (Bottom Right) -> ADVANCED TAB

Middle of the page - Folders (Root Folder In) INBOX

You also want to move your calendar and contacts out of the IMAP into a PST.

From the HOME tab on the mail Outlook page: Second button in is the NEW Item button - it has a drop down arrow. Click the drop down - then more items - select Outlook Data file at the very bottom. I usually move this out of the user profile to C:\DATA\OUTLOOK - if you have more than one user on the workstation C:\DATA\USER\OUTLOOK

I usually name the new PST something like calendar or contacts depending on what is more important to the user. This should mount the PST as well.

Next go to the calendar for the current user. Click VIEW TAB. Then select the change view drop down and select list. You should be able to see everything in the calendar. If they have anything, just select all and copy he data to the calendar in the new PST. Do the same for the contacts.

Close outlook. to START -> CONTROL PANEL -> MAIL.. In the MAIL windows - select DATA FILES. Set the new PST for the calendar to the default data file. Close both of the windows and open outlook again.

Removing the Calendar and Contacts from the IMAP folder seems to solve a lot of issues as well with synchronization of folders. To be sure you are getting all of your folders and sub-folders, From the main Outlook page go to the folder tab. Then select IMAP folders. In the IMAP folders window - top right select Query. You should see the folders populate. Then select ok. Go to the Send/Receive tab and select **SEND AND RECEIVE ALL FOLDERS **on the left. This should finish updating all folder and they should stay in sync.

Let me know if you have any questions. (I am going to break this out into it's own post so it is easier to find)

Thank You
