    Hello, Seniors!

    After a Hacking invasion, I had my computer restored by Geek Squad except for creating a list of my Favorite Websites.

    I'm sure glad I had my large Photo Gallery backed up in a thumb drive!


    I forgot how to do the creation of a list...

    I had my list of email contacts and favorite websites restored by AOL, because the Geek Squad didn't do it.

    Like it says: I can't download videos from YouTube since my computer was restored after the Hack.

    YouTube is having problems right now, and it is not working for people everywhere, so it might be that and not something with your computer. BObby was just saying the same thing, and when I tried mine, it just gives me the “retry “ message.
    I looked it up on Bing, and it said that YouTube was down right now and they are working on it.

    I just tested on You Tube's site, the random ones I looked at worked...if by "download" you mean "play."
