Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Lots of small improvements, it has teh snappy, and it was cheap.
Ginger,
Where are you taking your computer?
There's a local computer repair place that has pretty good reviews. I'll find out.
The Kindle app for iOS is annoying me. Sometimes when I come back to a book I'm reading, it opens on the page I was one, and sometimes it brings me to the beginning of the book, forcing me to scroll back to the page I was on. It should always open where I left off, right?
Also, I've finished two books where I can't get it to show 100% read--it stays at 99%.

Mine does. And between all my devices (well, it asks if I want to synch to the most recent and, with Kindle books, I generally do) too.
Uninstall and reinstall? It's pretty quick. It's been effective for me when I've had iOS apps get confused.
I'm trying to work out if I have a machine that I can install Mountain Lion onto. I need to make sure it will play well with Pro Tools before I put it on a few of my machines.
Feeling your pain, Ginger. Bought a new HDMI cable, still get the "no signal" message. It must be the Tivo. A lifetime subscription does you no good on a dead box. Fortunately, I have another one, but it only records one show at a time!
Went ahead with Mountain Lion. iWork syncs through iCloud like I want it to, that might make the upgrade worthwhile for me right there. Lost Parallels, though.
Another weird Kindle issue: Sandman Vol. 7: Brief Lives (New Edition) won't load onto my Kindle app for my iPad, nor the Kindle app for OS X. I get a "The item is not compatible with this device error." Amazon tech support had me uninstall and reinstall the Kindle app on my iPad and it didn't help.
Other Sandman volumes have downloaded just fine.
They already have an open ticket on this issue. Also, they gave me $20 credit, which is twice what I paid for the book, so I guess I can't complain too much.
