One should remember that soundbars are really designed for a TV and to be used with other surround sound speakers, if you want good quality stereo sound for a computer a set of speakers will always beat a soundbar and I am a huge Sonos fan and have the Sonos Arc, the Beam's big brother, with

That depends on what you call "affordable." Good ones aren't cheap, and alternatively, cheap ones aren't good--they lack features one wants in a sound bar, like wireless operation and not Bluetooth wireless. OK, the caveats out of the way, I love my Sonos Beam, about $400. It's

Thank you, Sieghard, I'll keep that in mind. The performance on APPLE TV was exceptional. A colleague in ministry strongly encouraged us to watch it because she'd just seen it over the weekend. A great musical, and a great bunch of folks helping folks in a very desperate crisis. > > On Sep

Thanks Richard and Christopher for those responses. This is all good information to know, and I'll share it with my kids. The APPLE TV musical about 9/11 was good to watch now. I highly recommend it to those with a subscription. > > On Sep 13, 2021, at 5:33 PM, Richard Turner > wrote: > >

Yes, I assume that if the content is behind the pay wall then you'd have to log in with your Apple ID and have subscribed to Apple TV Plus. This is the case with my wife and I and content like Ted Lasso or Mythic Quest. Not sure if Apple has any free content on Apple TV Plus or not. BTW, when

Hi Dwayne, You can only watch Apple TV on devices that support it, like Smart TV's, the Apple TV box, and of course, iPhones, etc by Apple. I believe you have to have an Apple iD to subscribe, but you can sign up for one of those for free. We have Apple iPhones and an iPad, but we also have a

No, you don't need an Apple product. You can go to tv.apple.com in your browser and watch things from there. For example, when my wife and I want to watch Ted Lasso together, we'll bring it up in Edge on our PC and cast it to the Chromecast hooked up to our home theater system. -- Christopher

Hello Janet, In case you are an Android user the contacts by default get saved to the google account set up on your device and in case you are using an iphone then the same will be uploaded to your icloud account. So changing the phone provider will not remove the contacts backed up over these.
