Hi Dory,

I have an iPod so I'm not sure if it's the same but here goes.

To log in to your Beyondblue account...

  1. Open web browser. (Safari etc)
  2. Search Google for "beyond blue".
  3. Click the first link to the Beyondblue Home page.
  4. Search "login".
  5. Click the first link to "Webpages: Login"
  6. Log in with your email/username and password.
  7. Check "keep me signed in" to remember the username and password.

Once logged in and on Beyondblue Home page...

  1. Search "online forums".
  2. Click the first link to "Webpages: Online forums".
  3. Save this page in your Bookmarks! Stay logged in, and it should take you straight to the Online Forums page when you click the bookmark.

There are probably easier ways to set it up, but once it's bookmarked all you have to do is click and you're right to go. Just stay logged in!

Hope this helps!

Hi Dory,

I thought you might like to know my mum took an axe!! to her mobile phone 😂😂😂. She’s gone through 3 phones but they all “died” due to her temper!!

I use an iPad too. So to bookmark a page/site you look up to the top right hand corner. There is a little picture of a square with an up pointing arrow. Touch this. It will bring up a selection of choices.

Bookmark is the second one on the second line. Touch the bookmark and it will bring up a square with the name of what you are on. Then press save in the top right corner of that little section.

I’ll just go & check how to retrieve a bookmark. Back soon, Lyn.

Hi again Dory

To retrieve a bookmark -

there is a picture that looks like an open book up on the left hand side at the top.

Touch this & it will show you your saved bookmarks. Touch the one you want et voila!

Good luck.

Sorry Dory 😟 I know it was a bit convoluted, and no you don't have to do it every time, that's just to find it and bookmark it. Ok, very embarrassed now. Probably should have asked my brother instead.

Hi Dory,

I am with you! My brain worked oaky up until about the 90's, then it really dropped out!

My husband was out one night when I was using the lap top. I phoned one of my nieces to find out how to turn it off!

It takes me about 10 minutes to send a 5 worded text message on my phone! Ha. Ha.

Modern technology is wonderful...when you know how to make it work. Ha. Ha.

Cheers from Dools
