[Guest guest]

Dear Latha,

I am pretty thick headed. I still do not understand how to get into

the online classes. Could you please explain it again. You can reply

to the list or to me personally at

Nierika (AT) aol (DOT) com

Sometimes, because of my illness, I forget, and sometimes, it takes

more than one time hearing something for me to "get it." I appreciate

all your help and gentleness ~ Linda

Dear Linda,

I am happy to know of your interest and I will walk through the

steps here,

 

Our classes take place on messenger. So there are two pre

requisites to joining the class

 

1) Get a email id and

2) Install messenger.

 

I presume that 1) getting a email id should not be a problem.

Just go to www., click on 'Mail' and select on 'Sign up'.

Follow through with the rest of the steps that come with the 'sign

up' and get the email id.

 

Getting 2 - Installing messenger on your computer is also

equally easy. Please note that while you just need to get an email

id ONCE, you will need to install messenger on any machine

that you plan to use. So if you install it on your home computer ,

you would still need to install it once again on your office

computer etc.

 

Steps to installing messenger.

1) Go to http://www./

 

2) In the 6 main menus ( Shop/Find/Connect/Organize/Fun/Info) , look

next to the Connect Menu for the Messenger link. Or click on

http://messenger./?i=1

 

3) In this page look for 'Download Now' . Please remember to pick

the choice according to your machine - PC or Mac.

 

4) Follow the instructions of the download to complete the set up.

 

5) Once the set up completes - open messenger from your

computer - this could be an icon on your desktop or in your start

menu (Windows only) . Enter your Id and password and

click "Sign In"

 

6) You will open the messenger window. The next task is to add

friends with whom you would like to start to chat . Look for

the "Add" button in the messenger . Select this button and add your

friend's ids , one at a time. Please do add

mine 'chandimaakijai' . You will see the ids begin to show up in a

list on the messenger window. When any of you friends come online

and sign on to messenger, their ids will become highlighted .

 

7)When you see your friends come online, click on their highlighted

ids and it will open up another window in which you can begin to

chat. Type in your message and click on the 'Send' button. And wait

for your friend to respond.

 

Good luck ! Please let me know if I can help further.
