    Bluetooth Issue

    I now see the headphones in the list of paired devices, but when I tap to connect nothing happens. Perhaps that means that they are paired but cannot be connected (I'm not sure of the difference)?

    Bluetooth Issue

    Thanks for the info. Resetting seemed to help in that it now sees them, but when I click to connect nothing happens. I can connect without a problem on my phone, but turning the phone Bluetooth off still does not allow me to connect to the tablet. When I click on the gear next to LE-OpenRun...

    Bluetooth Issue

    No idea how to factory reset the headphones. I guess I could do the tablet, if that would help.

    Bluetooth Issue

    Yes, Bluetooth is turned off on my phone when I try to connect. The hew headphones replaced a pair that I lost that had no problems connecting to the tablet, which is why I am wondering if there might be something with pairing something new with something old.

    Bluetooth Issue

    I've got a Galaxy Tab A8 and just purchased a new pair of headphones. The headphones pair perfectly with my phone, but my tablet does not even see them. Scanning shoes a host of other possibilities, but not the headphones. As far as I know I am up to date with updates (last updated 8 May 2024)...

    Can Artist Images Be Changed in Google Music?

    I am talking about the app on my Samsung Galaxy 9+. http://glsmyth.com/temp/r2.jpg If you look at the image above "Cage, John" you will see that it is definitely not John Cage. When I select his music I go to his page and see the information about him is actually about someone else...

    Found a program called SwipeLanch Disabler that prevents this from happening. Cheers - george

    I'm not sure what you mean by launcher, so so I guess I am using whatever came with the tablet. I made a five second video of what it does and placed it at https://photos.app.goo.gl/1hwikcMpQ7WH9zFt1 Cheers - george

    Unhelpful Feature

    When I swipe from the bottom of my pad into the screen the result is that a window pops up asking me how to complete my requested action. This may be helpful to some, but for me it really is an annoyance, as I end up doing this repeatedly when scrolling a page. Is there some way to turn this...
