Thank you mike and everyone else for your info, experiences providing links etc.
It all has been useful knowledge in obtaining. I'm truly greatful for the Mac and iPhone Google groups because everyone helps out each other and while they can get rather busy sometimes, that is also a reason why I like these groups. Because they are still active today and such activity is fantastic for one and all in passing information around and providing help in email form to those who need it regardless of there ability. We can all learn from each other. :) Kind regards Daniel > On 13 Jan 2018, at 23:03, Mike Arrigo <n0...@charter.net> wrote: > > Most likely the battery in the iphone 8 is larger, I don't think leaving it > plugged in caused a problem.
