I just purchased a Kindle Fire HD 8.9" and the first app I tried was Skype. The video quality was great and I heard the person on the other line fine, but they couldn't hear me at all. I've been on tech support with Amazon and they did everything they could to assist me (such as resetting my kindle, uninstalling and reinstalling skype, ect.) but every time I try my mic out "Echo123" can't hear me. Has anyone else had this problem? How do I tell if it's skype or my kindle? Do I need to return my kindle and get a new one? I'd appriciate any feedback!
Mine worked and then just stopped, don't know how to enable the Mic now, it was great on Skype, but how now Brown cow?

  • I seem to get the "Loading" message a lot.  Any Ideas?

    Here recently it seems that I am getting the "Loading" message a lot when I want to view an image. This is even true for the "fit" view. When I try a 1:1 view, it seems to take forever to load. And this is in the Library module. Also, my computer seems to be running in the background constantly when I have LR open. I am running a PC with Windows XP. I have 2GB of RAM and a Pentium 4 processor (3.0 Ghz.)
    Also, I have the following options set in LR:
    standard size preview 1440 pixels
    discard 1:1 after 30 days
    automatically write changes to XMP
    Also, when I import, I check the "render standard sized previews."
    Thanks for any input!
    Pat

    The 'Write stuff to XMP' setting is a bad one to use at any time, in any version. If you need XMP files, my suggestion is that you manually command a metadata export at the end of your session, and then just let the computer work on the export while you do something else that isn't Lightroom. Just don't let it run on auto.
    The biggest speedup that you can do is to work with a NEW catalog whenever possible, specially if you are doing sorting. If you need to integrate it into a central catalog later, just import it later. My previews went from taking an average of 8 seconds when I used a 1.2 catalog to almost nothing in a fresh 1.3 catalog.
    The 'Create Previews during import' in 1.3 seeems to be somewhat broken under it's new design. I just imported 650 photos into a NEW catalog, and viewing them one after the other right after the import was taking several seconds. I think that it has to do with the previews being built AFTER the import is finished. So either wait it out, or better yet, if you want to see the progress, tell it to rebuild the previews manually. After that you will be able to see previews with zero delay.
    Don't render 1:1 previews unless you will be actually looking at them. If you are just doing the initial sorting of photos, and you can check for detail later, wait until you have thrown out your garbage before manually commanding a 1:1 preview build.
    After a long 'develop' session, go back to Library and manually tell LR to render the previews again, since they don't get uupdated during the develop phase.

  • I'm trying to update iPhoto 7.1.5 to current versions so I can get my photos onto iCloud to access from my iPad.  I can't seem to find an upgrade route that will work?  Any suggestions?

    I'm trying to update iPhoto 7.1.5 on my old iMac (running  10.9.5) to current versions so I can get my photos onto iCloud to access from my iPad.  I can't seem to find an upgrade route that will work?  Any suggestions?

    For Mavericks you need to upgrade to iPhoto 9.5.1.
    You cannot buy this version from the AppStore, since the current version is iPhoto 9.6, and that requires Yosemite. The easiest route for you would be to upgrade to Yosemite. Then you can simply buy the newest version of iPhoto from the App Store and can use iCloud Photo Library (iCloud Photo Library beta FAQ), once it has been release for the Mac as well early next year.
    If you want to stick with Mavericks, you'll have limited iCloud features, only the Photo Streams  (iCloud: iCloud Photo Sharing FAQ), but no iCloud Drive (iCloud Drive FAQ) and iCloud Photo Library.  And to upgrade iPhoto you need to buy an iPhoto '11 installer. It comes as part of iLife '11. You can try to buy a boxed version from Amazon or try to find it at eBay.  Once installed on Mavericks, download the iPhoto '11 updaters from the apple Support Downloads page.

    I've been working on our church website and all of a sudden this week, my computer will not connect to the site. I keep getting a message saying that the the connection to the server was reset while the page was loading. Does anyone have any ideas of how I can fix this?

    The "The connection was reset" error message can be caused by a bug fix for the BEAST (Browser Exploit Against SSL/TLS) attack that the server doesn't handle.

    Thank you for replying. Unfortunately, I already did all of these things. As you can see from the below screenshot, the language is already set. Also, this screenshot was taken in Safe Mode, so NoScript is not enabled. About:accounts still says I need to enable cookies for some reason. So, this solution didn't work....

  • Can tiger be loaded onto a G-3??

    Can Tiger be loaded onto an i-Mac G-3

    You also must use the retail Tiger DVD which looks like *. Using a system specific, drop-in-dvd, or update/upgrade DVD will not work on an iMac G3.
    If the iMac G3 has not had at least Mac OS X 10.2 installed on it first, it may not have an up to date firmware, and you should install that first while booted on the hard drive into Mac OS 9. Instructions for downloading and installing the firmware are here:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86117
    If the firmware is not up to date when you attempt to boot off 10.2 or later, you will likely permanently darken your display so that it no longer shows.

  • Having a problem with dates when I send my numbers doc to excel. dates are all out and that they have to cut and paste individual entries onto their spreadsheet. Any idea how I can prevent this

    having a problem with dates when I send my numbers doc to excel. dates are all out and that they have to cut and paste individual entries onto their spreadsheet. Any idea how I can prevent this.
    I'm using Lion on an MBP and Numbers is the latest version

    May you give more details about what is wrong with your dates ?
    M…oSoft products aren't allowed on my machines but I use LibreOffice which is a clone of Office.
    When I export from Numbers to Excel and open the result with LibreOffice, the dates are correctly treated.
    To be precise, dates after 01/01/1904 are correctly treated. dates before 01/01/1904 are exported as strings but, as it's flagged during the export process, it's not surprising.

    I have a similar problem: I switched from mac mail to Outlook 2011 as the default client, and want to switch back. Mailto links (eg from browser etc) default to Mail.  However, when I try to email a Word document as an attachment, it continues to open Outlook.  Outlook has a button in its prefs for making it the default client, but I don't see a way to turn this pref off in either Outlook or in Word.  

  • I accepted/installed an update for iMovie and it turns out that this version is not compatible with my graphics card. So now I can no longer open or use iMovie.  Any ideas on how to get around this - how to revert to the previous version.

    Look in your Applications folder.  If your system behaved as expected, you should have an iMovie 9.0 folder in your Applications folder.  Apple moved the old version there as even they suspected the new versions was a train wreck.

    I do backup with iCloud.  I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud. 
    I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
    I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever.  Is that right?
    In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
    If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

    My iphones was stolen on friday how can get my contacts back or is there any way i can track it? i cant find my imea number.

    The only way to locate/disable/erase any lost/stolen iPhone/iPod Touch is through Find My Phone or a similar app. However, this requires that Find My Phone be setup/activated, on your phone, before it was lost/stolen. You would then login at iCloud.com & try to locate it. This requires the phone be turned on & have an Internet connection. There is no other way to locate a lost/stolen iPhone. Apple can't/won't help you, nor will your carrier. Report the loss to the Police, your carrier & Insurance company. Change all of your passwords, especially your Apple ID/iCloud password NOW!
    If your carrier offers Blacklisting & they Blacklist the phone, it will be unusable as a phone.
    If locked with a passcode, and running iOS 7.0, then phone cannot be activated or the passcode removed without knowing your Apple iD/Password. It will be nothing but a useless paperweight.
    If not running iOS 7.0, the phone can be forced into recovery mode & restored.
    Your carrier has a record of your IMEI number. Also read here:
