I'm basically basically savvy when it comes to posting/attaching pictures on the bay of e but I have a problem that I'm confident that the collective can help with. I've listed an electronic piano and attached a few pictures. So far so good. Someone has sent me a message asking if it would be possible to send a video of the instrument being played so that he/she can see and hear it. So, sticking the faithful Lumix DMC-FZ45 into video mode I filmed her royal lusciousness playing it in several of the various sound and rhythm modes. Plugged the camera into my computer and proceeded to download it (the video).
Now I composed a wee covering note and attached the video file. Ah, clicked on the icon for the video and, "file not found". At this juncture I should explain that normally whatever gets downloaded from the camera goes onto the desktop but this time it was downloaded into "Pictures". Moving the file into both the desktop and the video file produced the same result, "file not find" BUT................If I dive into pictures there it is, and I can open it up and play it. But if I reply to the person's message, click onto attach pictures and go into the picture file it has mysteriously vanished.
I hate computers.
