Outlook lets you add an expiration date to email you send or receive. Once the expiration date has passed the email will be displayed with different formatting, a strikethrough, and you can use Outlook’s built-in tools to manage expired email automatically.

Oops! You just sent a Google Gmail message that you did not want to send. You realize for one reason or another that the message has a mistake or that it shouldn’t have been sent at all. Using Gmail, you have a small window of time in which to undo your mistake.
Oops! You just sent a Google Gmail message that you did not want to send. You realize for one reason or another that the message has a mistake or that it shouldn’t have been sent at all. Using Gmail, you have a small window of time in which to undo your mistake.
By default, Gmail only gives you a 5 second delay in which to recall an email after you hit the Send button. If this is too short, you’ll need to extend the length of time Gmail will keep emails pending before it sends them. Once an email(s) are sent, you are unable to recall them.
This is for Windows 10 PCs, Macs and other devices that support Google Gmail

Unfortunately, you can’t change the length of this cancellation period in the Gmail app. You’ll need to do this in the Settings menu of Web based Gmail using your Windows 10 PC or Mac.
First, open Gmail using your browser and click Settings (the gear icon) in upper right-hand corner. Next, click the See all settings option. Refer to below image:
Open Web based Gmail Settings
In the General tab, you’ll see an option for Undo Send with a default 5 seconds delay. You can change this to periods of 10, 20, and 30 seconds from the drop-down list. It is recommended you set a 30 second delay. See below image:
Setting the Cancellation Period in Web based Gmail Settings
Scroll way down till you see the Save Changes button at the bottom of the screen. Press this button to save your change. The Settings window will then close.
The cancellation period you’ve selected will be applied to your Google account across all your devices.
How to Recall a Web Email in Gmail
If you want to recall a message sent by a Web based Gmail, you’ll need to do so within the cancellation period that applies to your account. This period begins from the moment you press the Send button. If you followed my recommendation, you have 30 seconds.
To recall an email, press the Undo button that appears in the black Message Sent pop-up. It is visible in the bottom-left corner of the Web based Gmail window. See following image:
Undo your email in Web based Gmail
This is your only chance to recall the email. If you miss it, or you click the “X” button to close the pop-up, you won’t be able to recall it. Once the cancellation period has passed, the Undo button will disappear and the email will be sent.
How to Recall a Mobile Device Email in Gmail
The process for recalling a mobile device email is similar to using the Web based Gmail. Your cancellation period you setup above for your Google account applies.
Go ahead an send an email using the Gmail app. A black pop-up box will appear at the bottom of your screen, telling you that the email has been sent.
The Undo button will appear on the right-hand side of this pop-up. If you want to stop the email, tap this button within the cancellation period or 30 seconds if following my recommendation. Refer to below image:
Undo your email using Gmail app
Pressing Undo will recall the email, returning you to the Compose draft screen in the Gmail app. At this point, you can then make changes to your email, save it as a draft or delete it.

Oops! You just sent a Microsoft Outlook message that you did not want to send. You realize for one reason or another that the message has a mistake or that it shouldn’t have been sent at all. You can fix your mistake by recalling the message. Using the recall feature, under the right conditions, your email is deleted without the recipient ever seeing the message. You can also send the recipient a replacement email with the correct information.
Oops! You just sent a Microsoft Outlook message that you did not want to send. You realize for one reason or another that the message has a mistake or that it shouldn’t have been sent at all. You can fix your mistake by recalling the message. Using the recall feature, under the right conditions, your email is deleted without the recipient ever seeing the message. You can also send the recipient a replacement email with the correct information.
For a message to be recalled, both you and the recipient must have a Microsoft 365 Business Account or Microsoft Exchange email account in the same organization. The email must not not have been read by the recipient.
However, even if you and the recipient use different email accounts, the recall feature is useful. Though the initial email won’t be deleted, the recipient receives a follow-up message indicating that you want to recall the previous email. That tells them that your initial one is incorrect for some reason. You should then follow-up your initial email and recall message with another email that contains the right information or corrects the initial one.
To summarize, three emails are involved. The initial email with incorrect information, the recall message email, then the follow-up email with the correct information.

Let’s send an email. Open Outlook, start new email and address to a recipient, then send the email. Refer to below image:
Initial Outlook email
Now, let’s say you notice an error in your email and want to recall it. In our example, the vacation dates are incorrect.
Open the email from your Sent Items folder. Select the Actions icon and click the option Recall This Message. See following image:
Recall initial Outlook email
The Recall This Message window opens to offer two options. Choosing Delete unread copies of this message tries to remove the message with no follow-up. Choosing Delete unread copies and replace with a new message provides the opportunity to send a follow-up message with the correct information. To learn of the recall’s success, ensure the box is checked for Tell me if the recall succeeds or fails for each recipient then click OK. Refer to below image:
Options for recalling initial Outlook email
If you chose the option to replace with a new message, a new email appears with the text from the initial email. You can fix any errors and send a corrected replacement message or a follow-up email with the corrected information. In my example, the recall message failed because I had already read the message. See following image:
Recall of initial Outlook email failed because recipent (me) had read the message
If you and the recipient use the same Microsoft 365 Business or Exchange, then the initial email should be deleted automatically. If so, you will receive an email saying the recall was successful for that recipient.
If you and the recipient use different email accounts, the initial emails remains in that person’s inbox. A follow-up email arrives that tells the recipient you would like to recall the message. You then have to rely on the recipient to delete or ignore the initial message. At this point, a third email could be sent with the corrected information. Refer to below image:

LinkedIn has introduced a new feature that lets members add a 10-second audio recording of their name pronunciation. Other users will be able to hear the clip by pressing a small speaker icon on a member’s profile.
To use the feature, you’ll have to record your name on a mobile device (iOS or Android), but you’ll be able to play name pronunciations on mobile or a desktop. Let’s explore how to enable this feature.

Microsoft Word will auto adjust table column widths to fit the content you are entering. This is the default setting for a Word table. There are times you may not want this, instead, you want to control the column widths.
The default setting may push the table beyond the right margin or a column widens unnecessarily.
So, let’s see how to turn off AutoFit option and do table adjustments yourself.
This is for Office 365 Microsoft Word on PCs, Macs and similar platforms. Other versions of Word will be similar.

Turn Off AutoFit Feature
To turn off this feature, first, place your cursor anywhere in the table you want to change.
Next, go to the Layout tab located in right hand side, not to be confused with the other Layout tab to the left side of the screen. Note! This option only appears when you are in a table. Refer to below image:
Now, click AutoFit and select the Fixed Column Width option. See below image:
You can now drag the column borders to your desired width. The column borders you set will stay that way even if you enter longer text into them. See following image:
Now, you can control Word’s table column widths. That’s it.

By using Google Maps you can find the location of a restaurant, store or some other company. How about asking the business a question? In some cases, you can do so through Google Maps. If the entity supports Google Maps messaging feature, you can send a message to that company. If the company responds, you can carry on a back-and-forth conversation; like texting, but instead you are using Google Maps.
To date, this is the most unusual post I have written. Its relatively unknown to the business community. I recommend you try out my example before searching for a business in your area that uses Google Maps for messaging.
This feature is for your iOS (iPhone/iPad) or Android device or whatever smart device supports Google Maps
If you haven’t already done so, download and install Google Maps to your device.

Search for a Business
Launch Google Maps
Search for a business you want to use or visit. In my example, I am searching for “Lobster House”. Refer to following image:
Search for Lobster House
If using my example, select the first entry. Refer to following screenshot:
Selecting First Entry for Lobster House
View the Overview Tab
Swipe Up below the map till you see the Overview tab, like the following image:
Overview Tab for Lobster House
If the company supports Google Maps messaging, in the center of the screen you will see a link that says “Contact us now“
Type in Your Message
Tap on this link
Type in your message and tap the Send icon. A pertinent question might be reserving a table at a certain time instead of my example. Refer to following screen:
Messaging Lobster House
In my example of the “Lobster House”, they usually respond within a few hours. So, revisit the “Lobster House” for their reply by:
Search for Messages
Searching for the business
Swipe Up to view the Overview Tab
Tap the 3 dots in upper right hand corner. Refer to following image:
Check for a Response
Reply to Messages
You will see the following screen. Tap on Message to view their reply. You can then reply back to the business if you need to.
The Message Screen
Whats challenging about this feature is finding a business that supports Google Maps messaging. Unfortunately, many do not. But, if a business of interest does offer messaging, you can use this feature to obtain more information about the company or perhaps, setup a reservation.

Word’s Caption feature allows you to insert captions after figures, tables or equations in your document. You can choose to have Word insert them automatically or do it yourself manually. Lets learn how to add and edit captions to set apart elements in your document.
You are not limited to figures, tables or equations; you can create a new label like Picture or Photo. If you are using Chapters in your document, you can add the Chapter number to your caption. Almost any object or inserted item in Word can be captioned.
This is for PCs, Macs and similar platforms that support Microsoft Word
Copyright Scott Adams, Inc./Distributed by Universal Uclick for UFS
Add a Caption
There are two ways to add a caption:
Select the figure/table/equation, right click and select Insert Caption. (Note! This method works only for figures and tables, not equations.)
Select the figure/table/equation, go to the References tab on the ribbon and select Insert Caption. See below image:
If you don’t select the object and choose References > Insert Caption the caption will be inserted where the cursor is placed.
Your Caption Options
The Caption dialog box will now open, with a number of options for you to set. Refer to below image;
Below are the options to chose from:
Captions – type in the label you want
Label – or more correctly caption prefix. Choose table, equation or figure. This will automatically add that label to the caption.
New Label – If you want your captions to have a label other than the ones provided, you can add a new one from the New Label option. (For example, Word provides the options Equation, Figure and Table, but if you are including photos in your document, you may prefer to label them Picture or Photo.)
Exclude Label from Captions – check this box and no label/prefix will be included. The caption will just contain the number and the text that you enter.
Position – caption to appear above or below the object. Only works if the object is selected before Insert Caption. Otherwise this field will be disabled and the caption placed where you have set your cursor.
AutoCaption certain types of objects can be automatically captioned when they are included in a document.
The caption will now appear in the specified location, with its number automatically allocated. See following image:
Figure 1- View of LZ Cindy from Searchlight Hill
Numbering Options for Your Captions
If you want to change the format of the numbering system on your captions, do this by clicking the Numbering button in the Caption dialog box. Refer to below image:
The Caption Numbering dialog box will open. See below image:
Format: Choose the numbering format you want to use:
Numerals (1, 2, 3, 4…)
Lowercase letters (a, b, c, d…)
Uppercase letters (A, B, C, D…)
Lowercase Roman numerals (i, ii, iii, iv…)
Uppercase Roman numerals (I, II, III, IV…)
And others depending on the installed language packs.
Include Chapter Number: If your document contains chapters, you can choose to have the numbering restart for each chapter and have the chapter number included in the caption numbering system.
First select the Caption in your Word document. Then you need to link the Style (e.g. Heading 1) with a multi-level list at Home > Paragraph > Multi-Level List > Define Multi-Level List > More. This adds automatic numbering to each style so the captions have a number to show. See following image;
Chapter Starts with Style: Select what level of heading you would like to signify a new chapter.
Use Separator: Choose the separator that you would like to use between the chapter number and the caption number (hyphen, period, colon or em-dash).
Change Your Caption Settings
Changing the caption settings isn’t obvious because right-clicking doesn’t show an option to open the Caption dialog.
The trick is to select the whole caption then References > Captions > Insert Caption. Refer to below image:
This opens the Caption dialog with the current settings.
Updating Your Caption Numbering
At the core of captions are field codes. Updating the caption numbering is the same as any other field code updates.
Select the whole document with Ctrl+A then update fields with F9 (or right-click to choose Update Field).
Change Your Caption Text
The text after the caption label can be edited in the document. Just click in the caption text and type as usual. See following image;

You have searched for a favorite photo or video on Facebook but are unable to locate it. Facebook has an option to backup most anything saved through its app. This would allow for easier searching instead of scrolling endlessly through Facebook posts.
You may have decided to deactivate your account for health reasons or you just want a backup. There is no such thing as “too many backups”. In my IT career, I have been “burned” by not having adequate backups resulting in lost time in recreating them.
Depending on how long you have been a Facebook user, the backup file can be quite large. If you have limited storage or on a free storage plan for your mobile device, you might consider backing up to a PC or Mac.
Using this post as a guide, I am backing up thirteen years of Facebook photos and videos on a Windows 10 PC. My backup file, in Zip format, was a 1.4 GB file.
This is for PCs, Mac, mobile devices and similar platforms using Facebook

What I would like to see is an option to select a date range for the backup instead of everything.
