Garage Sale Has Mother Lode Of Deals

Tuesday, May 14th, 2013 | Author: OWC NewsFeed

Spring is all about new. New flowers blossoming, new high school and college graduates ready to conquer the world, and unfortunately those fresh new screw-ups when it comes to buying mom the perfect Mother’s Day gift.

Luckily with the new OWC Garage Sale, now is the perfect time to give one of those new graduates the perfect tool to help them during their next adventure and also to give mom a “do-over” gift that keeps giving to prove your love and appreciation for her isn’t limited to just one day.

Check out these deals for great ideas on perfect gifts that won’t break the bank:

Be sure to check out our Garage Sale page for many more great deals. And as always, you’d better act fast – items are “first come, first served” and of varying limited quantities. Numbers are limited to that which is on hand and items automatically count down and ‘disappear’ as sold out. Sorry… no rain checks.

Yahoo! Discontinuing Older Versions of Mail

Monday, April 29th, 2013 | Author: OWC Jarrod

A few weeks ago Yahoo! announced that in June it will be discontinuing the last of its older versions of its Yahoo! Mail service. In doing so, Yahoo! aims to move its users to the new version of the service for a better experience.

While requiring the latest version is often a necessity to help users get the most out of their mail service, it can have unintended consequences that can potentially catch users off guard – consequences like not being able to access email accounts.

Many who use Yahoo! Mail may already have received an informational email and made the switch before June. We encourage those who haven’t done so to do the same to ensure that you don’t miss out on our OWC Tips n’ Deals or OWC Hot Deals Blast. In fact, as OWC Grant and I can attest, upgrading your Yahoo! Mail account is so easy, that you may have already done so without even knowing (or at least remembering) it.

Have no clue which version of mail you’re using? Don’t fret. Yahoo! will be contacting everyone who is using an older version with information on making the switch.

So make sure you’re email is all up to date so you can get the latest news and best deals from OWC. And as always, privacy is very important to OWC. You don’t need to worry about OWC’s lists contributing to the spam in your inbox; OWC has never and will never sell, trade, or otherwise provide your information to a third party or submit your information for another list.

Microsoft Phasing Out Hotmail, Will Move Users To Outlook

Tuesday, February 19th, 2013 | Author: OWC Jarrod

As we reported on the OWC Blog in October, Microsoft has been allowing its email users to voluntarily change their Hotmail and MSN addresses over to the software company’s replacement webmail interface, Outlook.com.

And now that the new, revamped service has officially moved out of the preview stage and is available to all users, Microsoft will begin phasing out Hotmail and MSN addresses completely and automatically move all of its users to Outlook.com. This process will happen gradually and is expected to be completed by this summer.

This means if you use a Hotmail or MSN address, your hosting will change, not the email address itself. However, Microsoft is still offering the option to manually change your address at any time.

If you update your address,  you’ll also want to update your information for the “OWC Tips n’ Deals” & “Hot Deals Blast” mailings to ensure you’ll continue to receive the latest news and deals from OWC. Fortunately, updating your information is simple. With our “Tips n’ Deals” and “Hot Deals Blast,” you just need to just re-register with the new address. And as always, privacy is very important to OWC. You don’t need to worry about OWC’s lists contributing to the spam in your inbox; OWC has never and will never sell, trade, or otherwise provide your information to a third party or submit your information for another list.
