So is this going to be the structure of the new fo...
I have been as objective about this as I can but have to say I don't like the lack of clarity of the new forums, and would prefer clear areas of discussion such as:
Connectivity
Security and Privacy
Gaming
HomeHub
BT Vision
Phones
Billing issues
Computer Issues - Hardware
Computer Issues - Software
Suggestions
Email
Web Authoring
An area such as BT in Home can cover a whole range of topics and gets very cluttered, and some of those topics can equally belong to, say, BT Out and About. And often one does not know where to post things - just look at the number of posts that have been moved from Forum Help and Suggestions, where people have posted because they don't know where else to go.
What do others think?

Aye to that. Just to add that a point was made back in January by Alun H about a General Discussion forum which seemed to generate interest.
All the best forums have a Lounge where folk can discuss OT matters. It helps to build that essential spirit of camaraderie. The bt usenet groups have one and it's mostly inhabited by a handful of people making harmless smalltalk, one or two popping into the "serious" groups now and again to seek or provide learned advice.

Cant see the logic in reducing the number of post-headings myself, unless it is to reduce the traffic on the forum, which it seems to have done.
Yup, it's just not humming is it. And there's already a new thread in this group that supports my case for a Connectivity group - thanks Sid

Do you know when Adobe is going to certify the new Nvidia K4200 GPU?
I recently bought the new Nvidia K4200 GPU card, but it seems Adobe has not certify this card
Hi Bill
I am using Premier Pro CC 2014 and After Effects CC 2014
I have 16 GB of RAM, an SSD of 500GB, and the CPU is an Intel 3770
Attached you can find the screen where Adobe say is using Open GL 2.1.2
I feel the performance is poor, I asked Nvidia and they told that the problem is Adobe has not certify that card and to ask you when are you planning to do it

- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Trying to connect my Digital AV Adapter to watch Netflex or Amazon Prime movie from IPad to TV and asking to disconnect AirPlay & mirroring. I do not have Air Play and there is no way to do this. Anyone have a solution? Is this a result of the new iOS update? Thank you.
Try looking in the control panel by swiping up from the bottom of the screen.

Email messages from my personal email account are being posted (copied) to SMS messages. I have a new cell device (swtched from Droid to iPhone) and this is happening on the new device also. The copy/forward to SMS is NOT being initiated by my email provider, and not by Gmail. How do I end ûVerizon's forwarding my personal email to SMS?
Thanks.Maybe I'm missing something but how can Verizon have control over your personal GMail account? Sounds like you do have your email set up to forward to sms.
I have certain emails that are forwarded to me as SMS but that is an option that is enabled on the email side of things and is independent from Verizon. -
I'm in trouble, my iPod Touch is giving 4th shock when recharge and the battery does not last any more. who knows or has a similar problem, please help me. Note: all this after I downloaded the new version OS5.
I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store because of the shock issue. I doubt it was caused by the update.

Whenever I open a new Firefox Browser, the other Firefox Browsers that I have minimized to the bottom of the screen all restore, (reopen up) onto the screen with the new opened Firefox Browser, how do I stop this? Just want the new one to open on screen and the existing stay minimized.
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== I think when a I updated or downloaded a newer version of FireFox at Firefox's suggestion.Hmm that does sound a bit strange - I use a system quite similar to yours (XP, FF 3.6.3), and don't see this behaviour.
I would recommend trying to start Firefox in Firefox [[Safe Mode]] (make sure you close '''all''' running Firefox instances first), and see if this problem persists.
If not, it could be some add-on causing this behaviour - restart Firefox in Safe Mode, disable all add-ons, and enable them one by one to find the guilty one.
If it still happens in Firefox Safe Mode, some other program (or something in Windows itself) most likely is the cause. We may be able to help with this too, so let us know what works and provide as much additional information as possible to let us help you solve this.
Please let us know how above works out, and if we can be of further assistance. Detailed feedback is appreciated and helps us to help you better, plus enables us to better help other users with similar issues. -
I am not getting any sound input on my microphone. There is no microphone input on my new macbook pro, so I am using my old one. Is this a problem with the new operating system? Did they simply remove any microphone software?
Check System Preferences > Sound > Output
Make sure the correct device is selected. -
I want to start with audio on a timeline and add photos. Why is this not possible in the new confusing version of iMovie?
Yrs,
Unspeakably FrustratedYes, you can do this. Drag the music track to the background and start adding your pictures. A great way to do this is to use beat markers so your photos will change on the beat.
A really fast way to do this is to line up your photos in an iPhoto album in the order you want them. You can drag the whole album into iMovie at once.
Here is a tutorial on the beat marker feature.
Here is a sample of a slideshow made by dragging in the music first, adding beat markers, and then adding photos. -

I regularly use 2 windows with multiple tabs each and session restore would work to get them all back, but after this latest update the second window does not restore properly, with the first tab not visible on top(only in drop down menu) and the add a tab button now on the left(instead of right). The add a tab button is not really concerning other than it indicates other problems with the tabs on tab of the 2nd window. Not having the 1st tab visible is frustrating, because I can not move it or as easily navigate. Also, the tabs on top of the 2nd window that are visible no longer have the "x" to close visible unless that tab is selected. I'm assuming this is a problem with the new release/update, since this is the first time I've ever encountered the problem, and I've shut down and restored Firefox a few times to make sure this was a recurring problem and not a one-time deal. Any ideas on how to fix would be welcome(other than perhaps cramming my tabs onto one window or sucking it up XD).
