    Question Pseudo Mackafee notifications

    Somehow I’ve got notifications purporting to be from Mackafee, which somehow I doubt, that is nagging me by continually sending notifications every minute with all sorts of warnings to get me to sign up to what may, or almost certainly is not an order for payment for Mackafee. All seem to be...

    Question Stop SMS being sent as MMS

    The problem is primarily with the one phone; I have not had any problems with other contacts - but my texts generally do not include photos, and are small in size, and are rarely group texts, so I may not notice any problems with SMS being converted to MMS, and vice versa. The problem appears...

    Question Missing Google shortcut on bookmarks bar

    I used to have a very useful shortcut straight to Google on my bookmarks bar, which saved me having to have to close a page down in google and then open a blank page - instead I could just click the icon on the bookmarks bar, which closed the current page, and replaced it with a fresh one. Thus...

    Question Stop SMS being sent as MMS

    Sorry about the late reply, been on holiday! Carrier is UK provider '3'; Android tells me the message is being sent as MMS, that it has not been sent, then suggests sending as SMS, which I'm sometimes not quick enough to accept, and therefore no message, MMS or SMS , is sent. Message is being...

    Moto G50 gallery not showing a file of photos transferred from PC

    Yes, I did try Media.Re.scan - didn't show any improvement. I've always been able to see the photos via the Files app; just not been able to see them in the photos app, and thus the pictures aren't available in my Library.

    Moto G50 gallery not showing a file of photos transferred from PC

    That's interesting. I have cleared the storage and cache on Settings, App info for the Photos app; left the phone for a couple of minutes and then opened the Photos App again - for a few seconds I can see all the photos I was trying to add and can actually open and view the photographs - but...

    Moto G50 gallery not showing a file of photos transferred from PC

    All photos are JPGs; the photos on the internal drive were copied into a folder within the DCIM; when copied onto the SD card I copied them into a folder within a 'Photographs' folder that has had photos copied into it before that have shown up in the photos app. I found 2 copies 0f 'nomedia'...

    Moto G50 gallery not showing a file of photos transferred from PC

    I have copied a set of photos from my PC to both my SD card and (when they didn't show up in the Gallery app) also onto my permanent storage. Both sets of photos are showing up in the files app as being there, and visible as a photo - but they are not appearing in the Gallery App to create an...

    how can I set a sound for receipt of mail from a particular account

    The Moto G50 uses the plain vanilla gmail ap; if there is a way to give a particular email address its own identifying sound, I've been unable to find it, hence this question

    Moto One Android 10 has stopped recognising any SD cards

    Several cards tried; all previously worked in this phone. Tried using a card and formatting it in the phone; still not seen. Haven't tried the nuclear option of completing a factory re set, as phone has been upgraded to Android 10, and am uncertain if a re-set would take it back to 9. Any help...
