Google Prevents Access to the Legacy Blogger Account

Are you still using the legacy Blogger accounts? If yes, there is an important update from Google for you.

Google has declared a deadline for Blogger Legacy account holders to migrate to the Google account. If you fail to follow the deadline, you will lose the last chance of migration.

In addition to that, the Blogger will block your access to the account and content.

According to the Blogger buzz post, the last date to migrate your legacy account to Google account is September-30-2011.

After September-30-2011, you will not have access to your legacy blogger account and the content.

How Can I Claim my Legacy Blogger Content?

PS: You can still use the Blogger: Claim your Blog form to retrieve the content. All you have to do is to visit the link.

You need to log in using the old username and password.

Should I worry About this Blogger Policy Change?

The above deadline affects blogger users who created their blog before 2007 and failed to login after 2007.

Users who logged in to their blogger account after 2007 will not be affected by the new deadline set by blogger.


Reason for such a deadline

Blogger says due to some technical and operational reasons, they have to stop supporting migrating legacy accounts and blogs associated with those legacy accounts after September-30-2011 to Google account.

So users will not be able to migrate their legacy accounts to Google accounts after the deadline. In addition to this, users will not be able to access the blog data and account.

Error 718: The Connection was Terminated because the Remote Computer did not Respond in a timely manner

Yesterday night while trying to access the Internet, I received one error message and failed to access the Internet. The error message is " Error 718: The Connection was Terminated because the Remote Computer did not Respond in a timely manner".

I am using Tata Photon Plus to access the Internet from my laptop. Network Connection Prompt gives two options either redial or cancel the connection.

I tried redial but right after the authentication process, I received the same Error 718. The error message seems like the modem is trying to authenticate the connection but the remote server/computer seems stopped responding to the modem request. This is how the error 718 message looks like.

How to solve Error 718: The Connection was Terminated because the Remote Computer did not Respond in a timely manner

Reasons for Error 718



The major reason for "Error 718: The Connection was Terminated because the Remote Computer did not Respond in a timely manner" is the modem driver issue. Either the modem driver we are using is outdated or misconfigured.

We get this error message when our computer is expecting a reply/response from the network and if it is failed to receive any in a timely manner, error 718 will be displayed. Another important cause for error 718 is the malfunctioning of the remote server. If the remote server is not in a situation to accept new connections, clients will get the Error 718 message.

How to Solve Error 718

Some workarounds for error 718 is provided below.

1. Disconnect the modem and reconnect

2. Check the modem settings including ISP user name and password

3. Restart your computer and check for the issue

4. Update modem driver

5. Connect the modem to a different computer and check whether the problem is with ISP

6. If the problem is with ISP, contact them to fix it.
