Hi, I tested this both yesterday and today, and pressing the return key did not pick up the call. Logically, I thought it would as well, but it was not in my case so did not suggest that in my post. Later... Tim Kilburn Fort McMurray, AB Canada On Oct 18, 2016, at 00:36, christopher hallswor

Memory limitations aside, I’m very very happy with my mid 2015 MacBook pro. It does very well with virtual environments and performs very well on just about everything I can throw at it. Upgradable no but I could see it lasting and being usable for quite a while. > On Oct 18, 2016, at 4:52 AM,

To answer E.T.’s question, I believe verizon does have WiFi calling. They didn’t when I was there but I think it’s been added since. Go to settings, phone, and look for a WiFi calling option and try enabling it. > On Oct 18, 2016, at 9:54 AM, Tim Kilburn wrote: > > Hi, > > I tested this bot

Re: Facetime for Apple users only?

Simon, It's just always worked for me. I wonder if you're pressing a different area of the button on the ear-buds? I press the centre of the buttons, the area where you'd play/pause/skip. On the iPhone itself, if you press the up or down volume while a call is coming in, then it will silence

Article: Apple on target for October MacBook Release

Found this article on redmond pie and it seemed totally on topic to discuss. Includes expectations about the up coming release of the laptops including the end of the MacBook air 11, the 12 Inch MacBook taking the place of the 11 inch air, the continuation and upgrade of the MacBook air 13, and

automatically add files to iTunes

Hello, So, sometimes when I download an audio file my Mac automatically unzips the file and starts playing it in iTunes and then it is added to my library both on my computer and on iCloud. I obviously want these files on my Mac but what if I don’t want them in my iCloud music library? Any idea

The 6.3.4 update has to do with browser extensions. Before, you would download and install the extension. This was changed. Now, you would be prompted to compare a code with that shown in the browser. Simpler. What I encountered prompts a question. Safari showed the code and the dialog i

Is this the same as Wifi Assist? If it is, I have that option. By the way, on that same area in phone settings is "announce calls". I have it set to never but would like to know what it is as its apparently not the same as being notified when a call comes in which I do hear. From E.T.'

Interesting developments to be. I know nothing about USB C but I usually go with the flow and so expect it probably will be an easy enough change to adapt to. The touch bar I find interesting too. We need someone to beta test hardware! Oh right. NDA. So much for that. My mid 2012 MB

Re: Facetime for Apple users only?

Hi, No, WiFi Assist is used when you have a poor WiFi connection. If the WiFi connection is poor, then the iPhone will automatically switch over to LTE or whatever data you have to give you the fastest connection. Many people have turned it off as they found that the process was making their

Hi there folks, A friend of mine asked if there were any way to extract text from QDF documents on the Mac, I actually did not know, so looked at Automator and built a workflow that does exactly that, saved it as an app, and now don't know if my friend can use my workflow instead of having to b

Just an update. This plugin for Calibre version 2.70 does work nicely once set up. True its a difficult process but once its done, Calibre does a nice job of removing the DRM then doing the conversion. If I find any more Kindle books I do not know I want badly, I may take a stab at a wri

Re: Facetime for Apple users only?

As long as you’re on your local network you can still do all the FaceTime tricks mentioned, wasn’t trying to confuse things. With it not being available you’re still fine. All WiFi calling does is allows the phone to be out of the picture and the calls to go to the carrier directly over your a
