Yes, only the opposite. I went to the desktop site because the mobile site kept telling me to go to a real computer. Then it showed me only the one thing i could not update from the mobile site. And i updated it, and now its all hunky dory. But i wish the first person had told me about this. Then again, it was a good benchmark - i did not get all freaked out, and i apologized when appropriate, and was enthusiastically grateful when it was done.
Eta - plus this and my experience with getting my health insurance payments resolved have left me feeling competent for the first time in my life. I am NOT missing my mother putting me down after a successful accomplishment. That may be redundant but im trying to make up for lost time!!
