Hey. New board.

Juliebird, is your music collection stored on your computer? If it is, I would guess you can just plug the tablet into the computer, wait a few minutes for drivers to install, and it should show up as basically a flash drive. Then you can use finder (mac) or explorer (windows) to drag whatever music files you want from your iTunes library into the Music folder on the tablet.

If your music is in the apple cloud, it is probably a bit more trouble. Apple doesn't play well with other hardware.

If you want a more all inclusive sync program for files on your computer, there are options. LG might even have one you can install from their website. But iTunes won't talk to android.

So my tablet doesn't even show up in my folders as another device or drive.

My brother has a droid phone and wants s tablet. How difficult is it to get a SIM card that hooks into his data plan?

Hey. New board.

Depends on the carrier. But most make it possible.

Dude! I just replaced my cellular modem and my router and suddenly my connection speeds are flat ripping! Who knew? Guess it was on the slide for a while.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Anyone know how to make El Capitan and a Canon Pixma MP240 play nice together?

The computer gives me this message

You need to install software to use this printer. To install the software, choose App Store… from the Apple menu. If the software for your printer isn’t available in App Store…, contact the manufacturer of your printer.

The app store is full of specialty apps and cloud based stuff I don't need and the Canon website (which is much clearer to navigate) tells me there is no driver or firmware suggested for my printer.

What happens when you go into the App Store, and click on Updates?

The only outstanding update is iPhoto.
