Can anyone throw any light on this?

Sounds like the problem that Primrose has just highlighted.

Thank you for all your responses and theories - as Harrigran says, it is puzzling. I asked my SiL who is very tech savvy whether he had any ideas, and he came up with the Bluetooth theory too, but even he wasn't absolutely sure.

When I get sent any photos via Bluetooth, I always get a message asking me whether I accept or deny them. Also, when pairing up with a nearby device I get a message naming the device and asking permission...or something like that.

Sounds exactly what I described earlier happened to my sister at a concert primrose she deleted the photos just as soon as we'd had a good look at them.

Best to disable Bluetooth until need to have it on. Apparently it gobbles up battery life.

The other day, I read on the internet that could can actually take a phot on your mobile phone by pressing the volume button on the side of the phone. It seems it's a lot easier for people who take selfies. Maybe that's what happened.

Nothing to do with this thread, I just want to know how much one can store on a computer, such as documents, is there a limit to KB whatever they are, I am currently writing a book and save evrything, but what happens if the document file gets full? anyone have ideas? Thank you for any help you can give.

That will depend on the storage available on your computer Diddy1. Documents do not take up much storage at all, you've probably got room for War and Peace

diddy1 buy an external hard drive, and save a copy on that - you should be backing up your files any way:

Always make sure your bluetooth is off
I had a strange voicemail on mine a couple of years ago, it said hello____[_my name] this is Alfie
I dont know anyone called Alfie at all
The only thing i can think of,is i was on the bus and a man started talking to me,and actually invited me for a cup of tea,he got off the bus same stop as me,
All i can think is his bluetooth on his phone picked my name and no up from my phone
After enquiring at a phone shop i was told this could happen,
Scary really

Grannyknot is right Diddy. I always tell my students work needs to be saved in at least two places. It certainly helped the student who left his dissertation on the bar in the pub and didn't get it back!

To the OP. I would be spooked out too. Thankfully I'll know not to panic if it happens to me.

We have had our SGS's here this afternoon and the general consensus of opinion is that, as some of you have said, DH should turn off his Bluetooth, as this is the most likely explanation although none of them seemed to know why he didn't have a request to accept or decline the photo.

I'm with Primrose65 delete and don't worry about it.

Maybe he was taking a photo of something else and clicked by accident x

Am I an old cynic? Do you trust your husband. Why was he in such a hurry to delete the photo. Wasn't he curious?

blueskies thanks for the thought, but we have been married for fifty years, are rarely out of each other's company, and, bless him, he is a man with very little imagination who could not tell a lie to save his life! He deleted it because after he had showed it to me, and I panicked and he thought it was the best thing to do.
