I got mine to work - Yahoo!!
I followed first with NoliWan's instructions without success; then tried some of the other suggestions.
I thought that it would be good to clear everything by following the entire procedure using the 5 key-cycle option in 4-b below; then I performed the entire procedure again using the 2 key-cycle option in 4-b below. It worked just like it's supposed to!
I hope this helps somebody...Cliff
