The following is a brief account of the interactions in the Dublin tech
club.
The following lovely people attended and perhaps Paul may be along with
more detailed accounts.

Jackie McBrearty
Paul Griffith
Cearbhall O'Meadhra
Eamonn O'Connor
Martha Parkinson
Michael Lavin
Martin Kelly
Noreen Meagher
Tom Langan
Joe Murphy
Albert Brown,
Annette McCarthy,
Marian Maloney,
John Chambers,
Michael Brown,
Bob Carazza.
Annnette: started off the meeting with a discussion on iCloud storage. There
has been issues for her downloading the latest IOS software update. a number
of suggestions were made to delete photos, files and pay for the extra
storage. It was also suggested to Annette to manually download the update,
Paul explained these steps so Annette will give it a go.
This discussion continued by Bert explaining about files in voiceDream
getting saved into the iCloud, This can be switched off.
Paul: then told us about checking on his two factor authentication. This was
done after he joined the Cork tech club on saturday. When he checked he
realised it was on and there was no option to turn it off. Bert has it on
and so far so good he isn't having any issues with it.
Declan explained its uses but it was agreed there is a time out feature
that could be worked on.
Michael, was telling us about the calls he has been receiving from other
countries, he was wondering about these calls. A discussion happened around
the different type of scams and the fact of opening a link could be
dangerous for your security.
Martin, wanted to know how he could delete email addresses from his outlook.
The steps got explained by Cearbhall and Bert. Cearbhall will be posting
instructions on how to delete these suggestions from the native mail app on
IOS.
This then lead onto a discussion about Imap and Pop3 and how on one emails
are deleted from the surver while the other one pop3 stores it unless you
manually direct it not to do so.
The meeting continued with more discussions on skills for Alexa in relation
to ham radio. One skill discussed is not available in Ireland. Bert and Tom
spoke about the new orbit writer. Tom agreed to purchase an orbit reader for
Jackie.
The GPS apps were discussed again, this is a popular topic. Blind square
still seems to rein supreme. Clew was discussed and its flaw of not
detecting single steps or a small flight of 4 or less. Cearbhall tested this
out in his large home.
the meeting endded. Some details may have been omitted as the note taker
writing this mail didn't realise notes should have been taken.
yours
Jackie who will be seeking forgiveness.
