    VZW activation question

    Excellent. I'll just tell him to go to Verizon. He can try and cut his sim if he wants but I'm not doing it. I'm lazy right now (in mom mode preparing for Christmas). I got him the Nexus protect insurance and a few usb-c cables so he should be good to go. I was going to get him a case but he...

    VZW activation question

    I've got a 6p coming to replace my husband's Galaxy S4. With his S4 being a micro sim and the 6p being a nano sim, he's going to need a new sim card (or I need to cut down the current one). Is the 6p "approved" by VZW yet or are they going to give me grief about trying to get a sim card for it...

    I LOL'd. A guy who owns a Samsung touchwiz device extolling the virtues of Apple. Not that the Tab 3 is bad, and 8" is a bigger size and more perfect for some, but TouchWiz is vomit worthy. I'm sorry but Apple doesn't just work out of the gate and example after example has been put forth here...

    considering returning permanently.

    I strongly agree with points 1, 2, and 3. I'm not even considering returning mine because in everyday use, none of the issues manifest themselves. I already have an iPad and just really prefer Android over iOS and tablet apps are less of a big deal at this screen size. At 10", most phone apps...

    A way to synch iPhoto albums and iTunes music play lists to my Nexus 7?

    Just to note, if you do want to maintain the play history of your iTunes library, iSyncr will work with Google Music. If you just want your music on your Nexus 7 then you are good to go, but if you want to be able to rate songs and keep the actually last played and play count updated, it might...

    A way to synch iPhoto albums and iTunes music play lists to my Nexus 7?

    The only caveat is if you use smart playlists in iTunes. These won't sync with Google Music *but* this is where iSyncr (or DoubleTwist) comes into play. I'm loving my setup with iSyncr. Moreso than with the ridiculously buggy iTunes Match. Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 4

    A way to synch iPhoto albums and iTunes music play lists to my Nexus 7?

    You choose the playlists to sync from the phone. After iSyncr is installed on the PC/Mac, I think by default it streams the WiFi server but you can check this in the settings. Presumably it works the same as on Windows. You can click the icon in the system tray and see the settings. Then you...

    A way to synch iPhoto albums and iTunes music play lists to my Nexus 7?

    Hmm. I use it on Windows so I'm sorry I can't help with that. I will say I've contacted the developer before when I couldn't figure out why my WiFi server no longer saw my phone and the dev was very responsive. Don't give up without contacting him. My problem actually ended up being simple once...

    Nexus 7 (2013) Anticipation of LTE Version!

    Re: Anticipation of LTE Version! I decided not to wait. I'm on Verizon and can't see paying extra when my device can't fall back to 3G. Granted 3G is awful, but its the principle for me. I can tether from a phone, using Bluetooth to save battery at the cost of LTE speed, and not pay extra...

    A way to synch iPhoto albums and iTunes music play lists to my Nexus 7?

    I prefer iSyncr over double twist. I've been using it for 2 years now and it works great for me. It is cheaper than DoubleTwist and works with any music player. Highly recommend it. It syncs the songs, ratings, play counts, playlists, and of course the music. Works over USB and WiFi and has...

    A Nexus 7 is not for you. You should get your iPad, you'll be much happier. So happy you won't notice whatever doesn't work with it when it first launches. I see quirks with my nexus 7. My iPad can't have GPS issues since it doesn't have GPS. I have flaky keyboard freeze but I'm confident...
