Claire, not being rude but... Linden Labs rarely (if ever) view these forums. this is resident to resident help only. If you want Linden Labs to fix something you need to file a report with them. We are only too happy to help out, but unfortunately Linden Labs seem to have misplaced my X-Mas card last Christmas The Recieved Items folder/tab is a fairly new event, related to the new Direct Delivery system from the Marketplace. You won't be able to do much with the folder/tab until you purchase an item from a seller who has actually converted thier Marketplace inventory to the new Direct Delivery system (Instead of the old MagicBox system). To date the Direct Delivery system appears to function much better than the MagicBox system and I've only had one failed delivery so far.

think very carefully about what you have been doing in front of your webcam. You may have just broadcast some of your most private moments to the world.... Just kidding, I'd say it's that the cam also functions as a mic. You can disable voice anytime by going into your preferences settings. I'd suggest going in and messing around with some of the settings to work out what each one does. When you break something you can always find help here hehe

Hya Lillith, that is the conundrum with No Copy items. If you attempt to rezz them and SL, the Sim or your internet decides to have a fit, the result is always the same - GONE! All the answers below are correct, though I hate to burst your bubble, don't hold your breath waiting for the item to magically re-appear in your lost & found. From past experience, when this happens I wait about a week. If the item doesn't return I go buy another copy. I also ensure I only rezz no copy items on my own land. Seems to stop the Sim hiccup issue.

You also can't detach (or drop) certain wearable items, such as skins, hair bases, eyes. as these can only be replaced with another item from inventory. Otherwise all other suggestions should work

I think what you are experiencing is exactly what I am getting too. Note the strange coloured dots around my hips and the way my torso is only partially visible I've just finished clearing both my SL3 and Firestorm caches, clean uninstall/re-install and a ground up rebuild of my avi and am still getting the same result. Seems the only way I can fix this is to wear mesh outfits with alpha layers. I wonder how I appear to others inworld but can't possibly face the world looking like this hehe. Anyone got any other fixes?

Hi, I have been experiencing a bit of a weird issue with my avatar, in that my skin isn't rezzing properly, or my skin rezzes with a very weird texture and writing all over. I've cleared cache, done clean uninstall/reinstall of both SL Viewer 3 and Firestorm and am experiencing the issue on both viewers. I've changed numerous outfits and am down to one outfit where the problem doesn't occur which is a real downer :( The only thing I can think of which I've done differently of late is buy an iMac and download SL onto it. Is it possible that the iMac SL is causing some sort of problem? Or could it be something else entirely? Someone please hellp me

Hi & thanks Lobo, I will have a looksee now. Sorry about the delayed response RL has been kinda crazy lately. Any help is good help IMHO, as I need to get my workflow sorted as well. I might have to adjust these for my particular software Thanks again

Hi Mr Blue & welcome to SL. There are many ways of making money inside SL. I've put a few down below. 1 - If you are new, you can often get some small ammounts from Money Trees, just type Money Tree into your viewers search engine and teleport to one of the locations. 2 - You can get a job inside SL, there are thousands pf places to go to see what is available. 3 - You can also purchase Linden $ through either your viewer or your dashboard, though you will need payment info on file. To get your payment info on file, use your dash board, click on the link BUY $L and follow the steps. 4 - Zyngo halls have plenty of free machines, however you need to have at least $1L in your account, which is refunded once you start playing. There are many of these Zyngo clubs around, just type Zyngo into the viewer search engine and pick one. 5 - Design & create stuff, that you can then sell. This will depend on you abilities to bend pixels Hope some of these help & good luck.

I'm using the latest SL Viewer3 and between logging out yesterday and logging in today I've found this task bar is gone. It's the one that shows $L balance, world, edt, advanced, developer menus and I really, really need it back. PS: I unchecked and rechecked the show advanced/developer menus in preferences but it made no difference, so I'm kinda at a loss what to try next. Thanks in advance Thanks Rolig, but that didn't work :( Bugger, now I've lost my landmark toolbar too lmao Thanks everyone for the suggestions, I fixed it with Firestorm lol. even complete uninstall/re-install of Viewer3 didn't help so I'm sorta out of ideas

This may seem terribly obvious, but have you deeded the land to a group by any chance? If so make sure you are wearing the correct group tag Good luck

Hya LazyDays, I just had a look at the website and it appears it may be an SL group you have joined, or possibly a store/club you have purchased from etc. Either way they should not be showing your information without your prior consent. Have you filed an abuse report? LL I believe will take this seriously as it is against all sorts of rules.

Thanks for responding, I shoulda been more specific, I have Studio4 and yes it seems like every other programme out there, there are issues . It would appear I may need to get 3DS, but not until I've exhausted all possibilities for Studio4. I tried Blender but I think I might have the wrong version, there only seems to be a gagiliion bloody versions lol.

This is a long shot, but try going into your dash board. I seem to recall seeing something in there about removing classifieds. Sorry I cant be more specific, as it was like 2 years ago I saw this, but anything is worth a shot. Failing that Customer or Billing Support should be able to help you. Good luck

Hi Jurak, If all else fails, try to get a friend to teleport you to thier location. That sometimes helps too

Hi Marroquino and welcome to Second Life and SL Answers, LoveAngel is correct Marroquino. Her solution should fix your problem. If not come back to your first post and edit it, rather than starting a new thread, as it will be easier for you to keep track of any replies. In addition to LoveAngel's response, I highly recommend a couple of things to new users, 1 - Inventory management is essential. you will find in no time at all you will have 1000's of items in your inventory so you will find it better to get into good practice filing everything away into folders etc. Better to do it now than when you have 20K+ items in inventory 2 - Create outfits (especially for any favourite outfits you acquire) so you can change clothing very quickly. After only 3 months (for this avi) I have over 105 different outfits and change around 4-5 times a day. To do this, follow the steps below; **1 - Wear the outfit you want, making sure you have all the extra attachments such as Jewellery, Shoes, HUDS etc worn. **2 - Once you have everything worn, right click on your avatar and select "Edit My Outfit" from the drop-down menu. **3 - This opens another window inside your viewer, at the bottom of which is a button called "Save" with a little drop-down arrow, hit the arrow and select "Save As". **4 - Type in a unique name for the outfit, I usually use the name of the clothing, eg DEVICIOUS - Loves You Red Catsuit **5 - Hit OK and you are done. This outfit will then live in your folder called "My Outfits" and from there you simply right click on the folder you wish to wear and select "Replace Current Outfit". After a few seconds you will be wearing your new look. Hope this helps
