[QUOTE="RalphClats, post: 1895614, member: 409128"] I open Chrome. It gives me two tabs. One is Google News, the other is Gmail. I open Gmail but it won't let me log in, saying too many failed attempts. I think somebody else must have tried to log into my account multiple times and failed, hence the rejection. I can get in on my laptop, however. When I dragged one of the Word docs into the thumbnail at Google Docs, I got the same error message I get when I try to open them in Word. When I enlarged the thumbnail and dragged the Word doc in, I got a similar message, something like 'format not supported.' I'm OK with opening the docs in TextEdit, then copying and pasting to create new .docx docs. Most are pretty easy to decipher. When I come across any that are garbled, I'll do the best I can.
