Amazon support for Playbook....?

Any word on when a full version of Amazon's Kindle software will be available for Playbook? I remember reading quite a while back the Amazon was going to support the Playbook which I assumed meant a full featured version of Kindle software for Playbook. Is this coming? Is it going to come with the OS2.0 release?
It's the only thing standing in the way of the PB being the best tablet on the market in my estimation.

bestbuy.ca had an ad that showed kindle support. Tuesday will be a fun day to see what OS 2 is all about.

Citrix goto webinar and cisco webex no support for playbook

http://support.citrixonline.com/en_US/gotowebinar/all_files/GTW010004
As business tablet rim should get support for these 2 important business application

ofcourse it should come from product vendor, either citrix or cisco, but RIM has to put some effort to bring these apps to their platform. People have been crying for webex and skype for past one year but no luck yet. Webex is a widely used apps for meeting and remote support and its pathetic that RIM is waiting for someone to develop an app someday. That strategy is idiotic and so playbook is a great failure.

CardDAV Support for Playbook

I have OS version 2.1.0.1088 on my Playbook.
I am trying to connect to a Baikal WebDAV (CardDAV) server v. 0.2.4, which uses SabreDAV version 1.8.0-stable.
I can connect without issue to the CardDAV server using Android and Windows clients, but I can't with the Playbook. It finds the server certificate and asks me to accept, then gives the error "...failed testing with current settings". Which seems to be the general generic error message for a connection failure for any type of new account.
I searched online, it seems many people complain about not being able to get CardDAV to work on the Playbook in reference to many different CardDAV servers.
Is CardDAV simply broken on the Playbook, or is there some trick to getting it to work with a SabreDAV server?
Thank you for replies.

I have no answer.

Support for Categorisation of Tasks on Playbook with BB Bridge - please?

The BlackBerry and Windows Phone are "task-savvy" as shipped. The iPhone and most Droids are not - you have to get a 3rd party task manager app for them. So the BB should have a natural appeal to those who want built-in task manager with minimal fuss and RnD. Add to this that the BB task manager plays nicely with its counterparts in Outlook/Exchange and Notes. This provides a natural appeal for those who want a built-in task manager that syncs readily with their corporate stuff.
Many personal organising systems rely on the use of categories for tasks. GTD is one of them, and very popular it is too, both with consumer users and corporates of all sizes. BB provides nice support for task categorisation, and so BB is a nice workshorse for corporate types who want to do GTD or something else that needs task categorisation. I guess RIM wants these people to be wanting PlayBooks too, no?
Why, then, oh why, oh why, does the Playbook, when bridged to a BB, have nothing to do with the categorisation of tasks? You can't group or filter existing tasks by category and when entering a new task, you can't give that task a category. When looking at an existing task, you can't see which category(s) it belongs to.
Standing in front of the oppostion's goal, ball at feet, with their goalie standing by the corner flag and .... whoops .. . over the bar it went.
Please:
1. Expose the category field on the "new task" and "existing task" forms, with the BB's master category list as a pick list behind it.
2. Give us a little drop-down on the Task folder so that we can pick a category to filter on. (I'm thinking of one like the one top left in Bridge email where you can pick which folder's contents you want to view)
There was a time when BB handsets had task folders that didn't support categories at all. That was many years ago. The requirement for task categorisation has not gone away, and is not confined to the handsets.
And breathe....

Given the dearth of replies to your post, you may have come to to conclusion that you're alone in your thinking but you're not, well at least not completely.

No Direct support for BlackBerry PlayBook tablet - why not I just bought it?

I've just bought a playbook. It says it comes with complimentary technical support for 90 days form the date of purchase. I have attempted to register the device using the S/N number as required and I get the following:
Unfortunately, your BlackBerry® PlayBook™ tablet does not qualify for Complimentary Support. You can, however, get assistance using incident based support from Research In Motion.
Why? grrrrrrrrrrrr

It should be. The complimentary support is just for help setting it up.
If you visit http://blackberry.com/support and follow the link for PlayBook you should get a phone number you can call, and RIM support will be able to help you.

Hi SR,

Sayit App for Playbook doesn't work

I cannot get Sayit for the BB Playbook to work. The program states to allow permissions for mic but I don't have any settings to do so After numerous reinstalls (3 different playbooks) still doesn't work. The company doesn't respond to my emails so It leaves me with the impression they are a bogus outfit. Anyone else stuck with apps from BB App world for Playbook that don't work ? Be nice if someone could set up a thread that says which ones work and which don't. This would save time and money for people who pay for an app and then don;t get support ,.At $5.00 per app and maybe thousands of user who download it !!!

Apple doesn't vet or test apps. those apps meet certain requirements and they're in the app store. Look through there, you'll see plenty of 0 or 1 star apps.
There are millions of apps and Apple doesn't vet them.
the facebook app hasn't worked right in years, Apple doesn't care, it's up to Facebook to make their app work. Same applies to Charter
they will not make a developer make their app work well, they let 'survival of the fittest' rule...good apps get good ratings, bad apps get poor ratings, well rated apps rise to the top, poorly rated apps fall to the bottom.

Arabic language for PlayBook os 2

I'm from egypt and i use Arabic language and i heard that there are Arabic language for PlayBook but i can't git or fiend it
Please help me to install Arabic language for my PlayBook
Thank you

Dear Sir or Madam
I recently bought one of your products, the Blackberry Playbook. It is a great tablet and powerful. I speak English but my mother tongue is Arabic. Because I had a Blackberry phone and the Arabic language is fully supported in all blackberry phones so I thought that there will be no problem with the Playbook regarding Arabic language support.
However, unfortunately, my guess was wrong. The tablet does not support Arabic language. When using the bridge feature the Arabic letters are displayed unconnected and in the wrong direction (from the left to right instead from right to left).
This makes the Playbook useless for me in many situations, for example when presenting documents for conference.
I am writing to you to know if there is a fix for this or if you are updating the language support for the playbook in short coming time.
Please do not use the word soon, as this word lost its meaning when Google abused its use. The life of an electronic gadget is very short these days, so the full support should be available for the user to benefit from the gadget.
In addition, Blackberry phones are very popular in the Middle East and many people, which I know, said to me they will never buy the Playbook if there is no Arabic language support, (I discovered this after I bought the playbook).
If you are aiming high and looking to compete with the leading producer in the tablet market, then just look at how it is easy to change the interface language in the Apple iPad.

The "support" for app store (and itunes) is utter crap?

When I try to guy anything from the app store, I get a message telling me to complete the purchase through itunes support. there is no itunes support, and the link to this support forum from mac appstore support is broken. ***? I can download the software from pirate bay for free in 5 min, but there's no official way to get app store support from apple? I submitted an email and got a reply saying I'd get a reply in 24 hours. I wonder how long amazon would be in business if they had 24 hour delayed email sales support for the things they sell. What decade is this?
There is no error, but the way, just a friendly message telling me to use itunes support to complete the purchase, and itunes support tells me I can't get itunes support and suggested I send an email.
Wow. This is such a stark difference from the support I used to be able to get when Apple sold software in their stores.
This is obviously more of a rant than a question, but I am curious if anybody else can actually get sales support for items they are trying to buy from the app store, or if everybody is as ****** as I am.

Interesting speculation. Not really the subject matter though, but FWIW, I don't use a bank card, I use paypal, and after this occurred, I went into itunes and made sure i could still buy things, so I bought an audio book. I then weint into paypal and made sure nothing there was obviously broken, and there wasn't anything I could see that was.
The problem I have is not that app store doesn't work (although, that's *a* problem), but the real issue is that *app store support* is broken. Or rather, it does't exist.
This is the new customer experience for all apple software, and rumor has is, hardware too (one day). This is so far below average that it really makes me wonder what the helll is going on at apple these days.

Downloading/Updating to BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0
If you purchase a new BlackBerry PlayBook tablet, the first time you set up the tablet you’ll automatically get updated to BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 during the initial setup process. For an overview of how the setup process on a new BlackBerry tablet works, check out our post on How to Set Up a BlackBerry PlayBook. (Make sure you come back to this post so you can learn more about the new BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 home screen when you are finished setting up your tablet!)
For those that already own a BlackBerry PlayBook tablet, when BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 is released, you will receive a Software Update notification that appears on the status bar. When this appears, tap “Update” to start downloading the Software Update. You’ll need to restart the BlackBerry PlayBook tablet when the BlackBerry PlayBook OS 2.0 update is complete, so make sure you save any files you might be working on.
Tip: Whenever you are applying Software Updates or setting up a new BlackBerry PlayBook tablet, leave it plugged in so it has a sufficient charge. To learn more on how to check for a BlackBerry PlayBook tablet Software Upgrade manually, click here.

Really strange, works here quite fine.
Wifi OK,
reboot is a bit long but I don't reboot but pause it

Still no support for multiple users!!

The only reason I recently updated to 5.0 is I was anxiously awaiting the addition of multi-user support to my Lenovo A10-70 tablet. I had bought it for my young daughter after she broke the screen on her Nexus. Well, without support for User Accounts, this tablet is useless to a parent. I cannot believe a large company like Lenovo does not offer this with its Android tablets! Mark, Cleo, Serene, Lenovo admins - I hope you are reading this. I am also posting this on Amazon where I bought my tablet. Such a shame - great hardware but such poor software choices. P.S. Major issues with the new update to Android 5.0. WiFi does not stay connected. Many Google apps will not run, including Gmail!

Multi-user support is not common in tablets - so far, the ONLY tablet I have found with solid multi-user support is the Galaxy Tab/Note 4 (and even it has issues if you mis-configure it). (Why do I refer to the Tab/Note 4? Yes - the Note 4 is a phablet, and is typically sold via providers AND has a taller resolution than the Tab 4; those are, in fact, the ONLY differences between the Tab 4 and Note 4. They have common features otherwise, and even their updates are released simultaneously.) Lenovo even did the same thing with the A-series - compare their phablet models (G, GV, and H) with their wireless-only F models - you'll find so many commonalities it's not funny. It's the phablets that are getting all the update love (especially when it comes to Lollipop); tablets (F subseries), not so much.Also, phablets are huge in Asia and India (look at sales of the G, GV, and H - the forums HERE are also rather obvious in those reporting successful updates - they are all from Asia or India); Lenovo doesn't push phablets in Europe or North America. (I have no idea whether it is provider resistance or not.) If you want solid multi-user support as a parent, look to Samsung (simply because they actually implemented it properly, which most tablet OEMs aren't going to be bothered with - it's not a knock specifically on Lenovo, because it's not specifically a Lenovo issue). On the Lollipop update issue; how many of us are still soldiering on with the same amount of storage that our tablets came with? (I'm referring mainly to us F-subseries folks.) The thing about the F subseries is that they all have small - if not downright miniscule - amounts of usable eMMC storage; out of the 8GB of eMMC storage the device has, only half that - 4GB - is usable from the start. And every app you install, and assorted things that go along with it, eats into that. Look at the size of the UPDATES that are being reported; S000023 alone is nearly 200MB. The big combo updates - and if you're coming merely from S000020, which is the North American starting place for the F - you're talking nearly a gigabyte just to get to S000027 - do you have that much usable storage? We may well have to bite the bullet and install medium or large (16GB/32GB) microSD cards in our tablets just because of the update-size issue. (It's not like 16GB microSD cards are all that expensive, even retail - I see them at the local Best Buy for - at worst - $15 for SanDIsk Ultra - that's the high end brand of microSD card.) We may be getting those "you have the latest version" due to available-space constraints - I've seen it happen on space-coinstrained WINDOWS PCs often enough.

Cannot build for PlayBook

I'm trying to install an AIR mobile (flex) application on BlackBerry Playbook.
I managed to publish many successful builds of my app for all Blackberry devices EXCEPT Playbook.
The application failed to installed with this following error message "failure 821 Application-requires-system :unrecognized system name "BlackBerry10".
I am using FlashBuilder 4.7 with AIR 3.1 SDK and I am using Adobe and Blackberry ANEs to build the app.
Is the AIR SDK I am using (3.1) is correct for Playbook ? It DOES work for all other BlackBerry device.. ? Any ideas what might cause this ?
Thanks !

Hi,
Based on my understanding, the Win2012R2 Debug and Win2012R2 Release options are developed yourself but they did not display. If yes, please consult on
Windows Hardware WDK and Driver Development forum to know how to display custom driver in VS. VS General Question forum mainly discusses
the usage of Visual Studio IDE such as WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System
and Visual Studio Editor.
