I love the fact that I can access files using the dropbox app on my phone. It's a convenient way to take all of my music everywhere. However, recently I made the mistake of saving some music as Windows Media (WMA) files, which, of course won't play on the iPhone. Does Windows 7 offer the chance to

Craig, I saw the subject line in your iPhone post, but no information. But I can tell you that it's easy to play any files with the dropbox app. You just clikc on the file and it begins to play. Hope this helps. On 7/11/12, Craig Werner wrote: > > > -- > You received this message because you ar

Hello friends, I'm a retired pastor, having served in a rural parish in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America for 32 years. When I recently got my iPhone, I too searched for good Bibles for my phone. Here's what I discovered with the help of a partially sighted Lutheran Christian member of ou

Accessing the Amazon Cloud Player

Because I was always an Amazon user, I thought I could use the Amazon Cloud Drive app. And while that's okay on my phone, I can't seem to download music from the cloud drive on my computer. Truth is, I like dropbox so much that I'm transferring all my music to it. Has anyone on this list had any ex

You won't get email service with a 3G network because there isn't one nearby where your mom lives. However, if she has a wi-fi router, you can link up with that and you're good to go with internet access, at least. Duane On 7/4/12, Rebecca Ilniski wrote: > Hi everyone. I will be going to my mo

Re: NFL broadcasts on the IPhone.

2012-06-25 Thread Duane Steele
Knowing how proprietary the NFL is, I think it's safe to assume that the free football radio app will only work during the pre-season. Once the regular season begins, nfl.com makes it nearly impossible to listen to broadcasts without paying two subpscription prices, one for the regular season, and
