BitConvert Ltd
My father inlaw bought bitcoin 5 years but cannot contact the agent. It looks like it went via BitConvert Ltd Malta but searches seem to suggest this company is dissolved. If this is correct is it possible to retrieve their current value or was it all a scam?

Besieged by 'posts' on my Facebook page.
This started a week or so ago - any absolute bludy screed of cluckin' posts, where I used to have none (well, apart from the couple of sites I've chosen). It's bludy endless - must be a dozen or more per day. My index finger is worn out deleting the 'stewrads, and 'blocking' them. Why did this start up? Ta.

No sound on mobile
I cannot get any sound out of my Motorola G7 power, which is about 5 years old. I first noticed it when an alarm didn't sound, and then when trying to make a phone call. I've done a couple of different resets, but to no avail. From an internet search, it appears that Motorola do have sound problems, but I couldn't fully…

Toshiba TV power button flashing red and green.
It doesn't happen all the time, and is more of an irritant than a problem. I do wonder why it does it. Sometimes it flashes for a while and then the normal screen comes on. At other times it will flash and then switch off. When I switch back on it may go straight to the normal screen or flash for a while first. I can't see…

Best smart device with decent sleep tracking
Can anyone recommend a smart watch with good sleep tracking? I was looking at the Samsung ring but I read that it cannot compare to a decent smart watch, but when I look at some of the Samsung smart watches, they have very short battery life. I have an old, generic brand smart watch but the sleep tracking is inaccurate,…

Editing pdf files
I don't often get pdf forms to fill out, so I haven't had much experience with them. It seems that sometimes they can be edited, and sometimes they have to be printed and filled out manually. And sometimes the manual ones can be edited after going through various menus (though I've never understood what has changed). If I…

Cloud Storage that's Reasonably Priced
I'm looking for a cloud storage for my macbook. I'll need to store up to 100 Gb over multiple computers (not phones) for a couple of years. Tempted by Idrive's Mini deal for 100Gb for under £3 per year. I know that sounds too good to be true so I'm asking if anyone has used them and can let me know how well it works, or…
