It says 6 devises when I logged on to it

But only DH & I are here so maximum it should be my phone, his phone and my computer as his is off

I turned on my kindle and it went up to 7 and when I turned it off it went down to 6 again

I would just change the password but how do I know that's secure (as they much have got the passowrd somehow?)
What do I do?

I'm with EE and have a 4GEE wifi box (might not quite be a router)

I have virgin cable so no wifi/internet

& I haven't seen another devise ince last night so fingers crossed it's OK now....and I used less that a third of the internet/data today then I used yesterday.....

Thanks everyone

What sort of videos and what sort of computer?
are we talking little home movies, or serious productions?

The latter is going to need a lot of power, storage space and patience!

The defacto standard apps for non-pros are likely to be Sony Vegas, Adobe Premier, or Apple Final Cut.

OK I'm using Windows Movie Maker.....I'll message you what I'm doing and you can laugh Grin

It's semi-professional; as DD needs professional ones & can't afford them so uses me :)
