Hi, I'd also double tap the side button to bring up the app switcher and close any apps that appear like they might be battery drainers. Heck, if your battery is draining that fast it might be worth closing all apps and then restarting your watch again Gabe On Apr 24, 2024, at 7:44 AM, 'Donna

The app is easier. I think it used to be better. I believe that there were more headings in the past, but still, overall, the app is easier to use than the website. Mary Ward On Apr 24, 2024, at 12:19 PM, 'E.T.' via MacVisionaries wrote: Hello all, Have always used the computer for this.

E T, I use it all the time on iPHone. It is an easier interface, less eye-candy. I think some time ago I gave you info on how to easily look at your recent orders. There are tabs at the bottom of the screen, the lower right is “menu” Click on that, and then drag your finger up the very left

Dave, I don't know what the host names were for my two installations so not sure about this. But since the screen on my Mac broke while doing a startup from Sonoma to Ventura, things got dicey in Ventura. Am going to do yet another fresh install of Ventura and see what I get for a host name

I use it since I figure it’s a great privacy tool to have in the unlikely event someone were to get ahold of my computer. It encrypts the data on the Hard Drive so someone can’t just say disconnect the drive, and plug it into another computer. > On Apr 24, 2024, at 11:09, Brad Snyder wrote: >
