can no longer take screenshots in ww!

[BASMAT]

thanks foryour replies. i cant use any snipping tool because i have a lower version of windows.

i have always been able to take screen shots on ww until i started having trouble with the instant/random log outs that many ppl are having. my security settings are the same as they have always been. everything is the same. thats why this makes no sense to me. it just started happening and it is not a BAM out of ww, like what happens when you crash. it is one of the ww logouts with the closing of ww into the logout screen like you do when you push the logout button. its not any failure of my software or a freeze of my computer.............. ww just logs me out. jsut exactly like my random logout problem......

I would wait to see if WW will fix their logging out issue and than try to take a screen shot.

try using firefox

Hmm how odd. I don't have this issue but then again I use Firefox so it may be related to the browser. I am not a big fan of IE

I haven't had any problems myself, but could it be that you are accidentally hitting the log out button when you take the screenshot? It's always a possibility

IVE EXPERIMENTED taking screenshots of all sorts of things the very same way i do always and it always works..........except when i do it in ww........... i wish those who are being randomly logged out would take screenshots to see what happens............. i wonder if its associated with the new 'logout games'.................... i appreciate ppl suggesting i use another browser but thats not a situation i can do.......... its just weird but i agree with what lazygal said, the thing is, i dont knowwhen or if ganz will fix the random logout issue so many of us are having, its been happening for so long now and they dont even admit to the problem........ so imstumped really. its very hard tonot havethe screenshot option. is there any way in windowsxp to take screenshots besides the print screen utton on your keyboard?

thanks for your replies everyone............... feel free to add more anyne else!

I use IE8 and not having any problem with taking screenshots. I use printscreen and then paste it into Corel Paint Shop. But then, I haven't been plagued with the random logout problem that so many are having either.

Hmm... this isn't happening to me, but I would also suggest the snipping tool but yes, I also get randomly logged out lots of times.

[T9850]

I use alt+fn+insert for taking screenshots. Do you use the same?

[BASMAT]

webberlilly, i canttake the screnshot w/o being logged off, so if i take the shot id have to be willing to get logged out....... but thatis happening so much tome lately that i just want to getthings done when im able..... so im skipping the screenshots althogher. but i always use my printscreen button.

t9850, thank yu for your suggestion. i had never heard of that combination to take screenshots. i can find the alt and the insert buttons but i cannot find the 'fn' button., where is that located on the keyboard?

i have been takeing screenshots everywhere asi am online, and no problems........ just in ww, and i get logged out like i do fromthe random logouts or when i manually log out, not like when ww crashes.

i thank all for thier ideas. i hope i can get to the mystery.......... i am trying different things and i will report back if anything works, as well as the t9850 combo i need to try once i know the buttons............

i really appreciate it everyone!
