Re: Multiconvert

Michelle, I agree, that Siri works well for most things. However, I have not found a way to get Siri to convert currencies. Do you know an app for that? That's what I liked about multi convert. It had just about everything. Ben > On May 28, 2016, at 23:05, Michelle's Home Emails > wrote: >

Re: Apple pulls Airport routers, possible refresh coming

For one, there is no provision for quality of service. It is a router designed to be simple to set up and run. It does that but at the expense of losing options. If you are familiar with these sorts of devices I should not have to tell you this. As for reasonable speeds, that depends on what you de

Re: Apple pulls Airport routers, possible refresh coming

Hi, In our tests, albeit not exhaustive nor extremely intricate, it was primarily the commercial AP's like Cisco, that out performed our Extremes. I'll also admit that these tests were two or so years ago, so there may have been others that surpassed the Extreme. As a home network unit, I'd s

Re: Apple pulls Airport routers, possible refresh coming

Yeah, I’m with Tim here. There are of course competitors, but to me, speed isn’t everything and you can more than make up for any potential inflexibility in the router part of the AirPort by just using it as a pure bridging access-point, at which it’s very good. The only thing I wish they’d br

Well I forget the wording of the ad just now, but one of the buttons should be something like “Show my music” or some such thing. The other starts the subscription process for Apple Music. Press the continue to your library button and you’ll be in your music. Pretty slimy behaviour by Apple,

unauthorizing devices from itunes

Over the years I guess I authorized several machines in itunes including a couple windows machines which have now bitten the dust. I've reached my limit of 5 authorizations and would like to authorize my macbook pro. Is there any way I can unauthorize the old machines or do I need to call apple

I believe you have to select to unauthorize all devices and then authorize the ones you want. This is done in your iTunes account settings. Take Care John D. Panarese Director Mac for the Blind Tel, (631) 724-4479 Email, j...@macfortheblind.com Website, http://www.macfortheblind.com APPLE C

Actually, Siri works quite well for currency conversion. I say, Convert 100 US dollars into Australian dollars. Or say, How many Australian dollars is 100 US dollars. Or say, 100 US dollars is how many Australian dollars. The translation of what was said is displayed on the screen and can be loca

That checkbox in Preferences is irrelevant to Home Sharing; it only control sharing of music to other Macs/Windows/DAAP clients, i.e. iTunes running on a computer (but not iOS) or an iOS DAAP app. The control you want is in File, Home Sharing as you know. Put music on your iOS device, eh? Of

I love my Airport Extreme as I told my ISP that I’d not use their routers as I had bad experience with another ISP provider with their Router and so when I moved to my current provider, I was determined to use my own equipment as normally in the past, I’d not get good performance with an ISP Rou

Re: Home Sharing

Of course? Really? I never ever would have reached that conclusion. (smiles) Syncing something seems to act like a key. iTunes Match, does that allow one to listen to content because its in the cloud? So it can be accessed anywhere anytime? Crazy to pay Apple for that. Maybe I am a Scroo

Of course. With Apple, everything is obvious when you have consumed the appropriate mind-bending drugs. :) Well, with iCloud Match or Apple Music Library, I was thinking that since one feature is to show you an online library, you could take advantage of Home Sharing when you’re home, but iClo

Hehehe. Apple only markets what they believe we want after all. Of course they are one step ahead of us and let us think its our idea. That said, as long as we have choices its ok. If I was on the move a lot I could see using Match. Or if I only cared about new music, then Apple Music mi

Yes, QOS could be useful to have. I've been trying to figure out why whenever I make a phone call through Sprint wifi calling or even my Obihai voip adapter, I get solid receive with very choppy transmission. I don't generally keep anything uploading at the same time, so something's crossed some

Two problems you’re running in to. The peers between Time Warner and Sprint are congested, the WiFi calling head ends are also over subscribed likely and your provider may be reprioritizing packets. Remember your WiFi calling is likely encapsulated in a VPN so not likely to be QOS tagged becau
