    Galaxy Note 10.1: Bluetooth keyboard and mouse

    I've been using my logitech K810 for over a year now and still love it. I'd love (even better) a logitech keyboard/case combo, but by now I think we can all agree that the 2014 tablet is out of the running for that. I carry the tablet and keyboard together in their own respective cases. I bought...

    Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014) Bluetooth problems

    This is odd (some of us experiencing BT connectivity issues and others of us not) and I can't say I feel like Samsung is engaged in fixing this problem. I have the Logitech K810 and it works...always has worked...flawlessly with my GN2014. I don't know if the underlying problem is your keyboard...

    movies for travel?

    Thanks, everybody, for your help. I'm going to repeat what I *think* is the overriding advice on what I should do or at least try to do. First I DO need to rip the DVD, not just copy/paste it onto the thumbdrive. So I either need to find a good free program or pay the bucks for one. I also need...

    movies for travel?

    So in order to balance what I'm seeing so far, looks like I should try to copy a full movie DVD without ripping it, and using moderate compression, just to get a handle on the size of the file. If it's too large, I could rip it, but need to make sure I'm getting the right size for the Note's...

    movies for travel?

    Well, I feel like a dweeb for asking this (because I have a feeling the answer is really simple), but how do you take a DVD movie, rip it, put in on a flash (thumb) drive and then play it on our trusty tablet? I have the kitkat update and I've never ripped a DVD for tablet use. I just ordered...

    Hancom Office Now Available

    To repeat the obvious (which wasn't obvious to me), you need to download all the files before launching any of them. I downloaded Hword alone, tried opening a new doc and it crashed...repeatedly. I uninstalled the file, installed it again along with all the other Hancom files and this time, no...

    Curious? What's your Galaxy Family?

    S3 and GN 10.1 (2014). I started back with the original Motodroid, but only because Verizon wasn't carrying iPhones. I really, really, really wanted to drink the iLemonaid and be converted back then, but by the time Verizon was offering iStuff, I was an android convert. I could have gone the...

    Poetic: Perfect Case for the GN 2014

    I ended up buying a Coach sleeve leather case for made for iPads. Got it on eBay for about $25. It's a tight fight, but looks and feels quite lovely. That's only for carrying around; I'm still looking around a for a metal folio keyboard case, but that type of hunting has been a source of...

    Note 10.1 + Firefox + Flash Player

    FWIW, I also had that problem, however, following those instructions (I also found that link) still didn't correct the problem. I ended up searching the forums here and learned a few more steps that helped me. In my case, after importing and installing the archived Adobe Flash Player, my videos...

    Poetic: Perfect Case for the GN 2014

    Speaking of cases...like everyone else, I've been hunting down a good case. What I really want is something like the Logitech Ultrathin Keyboard Folio for the Tab 3 10.1 Keyboard Cover for Samsung Galaxy 10.1 Tablets - Keyboard Folio S - Logitech, but that doesn't work for our 2014. I'm sure you...

    Galaxy Note or Ipad Air

    OMG, yes! My first Samsung was my S3 phone. I spent my first two days on the phone (landline) with foreign tech support over something that I ended up figuring out myself with the help of forums like this one. My new-to-me-4-day-old tablet isn't much different. I learn from user forums. I'm not...

    help please! flash player

    Hi all, My first post. I ended up here also because I couldn't get flash videos to run on my Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014). A simple Google search shows this is an issue with lots of thoughts and suggestions, but if you've come this far in the thread, you are still looking. FWIW, I followed...
