Hi All , Can anyone please offer any help that I seem to have with Google Groups ? I have been trying for some time to join Airliners List (ALST) and finally cracked it BUT.. Initial email from ALST with welcome asked me to click on a link which is the normal way of things . This was in an email on my hotmail account . I clicked and got a page telling me 'Contents Unavailable' , 'Double check the link or try switching accounts' . There was another link so I tried that but got same result . I contacted ALST who put me directly into the group so no need to click anything . Wrong ! . I asked ALST to resend the email on my Yahoo account as my other Google groups are linked to yahoomail . Same result . ALST said their group would show on my 'My Google Groups' page' . No it does not . If I try to get any form of directory of google groups I always get My Google Groups and no way to add or change any thing ! ALST do not know why this is happening . Nor do I ! I am using Windows 10 and have McAfee installed . ( I had to get McAfee to remotely install their software as my system would not permit me to download it off the net ) . So I think that with all these W10/MS updates , that something has gone adrift at some time . Any help much appreciated . Thank you . Chrisj

Chris,
PM sent re:- Magazines
Is ALST a Google Group or a Yahoo Group ?
Have you tried looking in your Yahoo groups ?
Google groups and yahoo groups do not talk to each other and it can be a real pain switching between one and the other....
also if ALST have sent you a link, try copying & pasting the link into a web browser rather than clicking on it, it maybe that McAfee does not like the link (Another poorly designed piece of software)
If I think of anything else I will let you know...
Cheers
Adrian

Thanks for reply Adrian . ALST say they are a google group but I will try your suggestion - I will try just about anything ! I forgot to add to my original , that as with most groups one can opt to have or not have the posts as emails . I am getting all their emails but just can not get onto main page . Oh well , with CV19 conditions , grotty weather and nothing going overhead I have time ! Chris

Pleased to say that the problem is sorted ! Hotmail is not overly liked by many groups and possibly this was one of them . Chris
