    I had no problem casting a Chrome tab with my Win 7 PC. When I set up my wife's 5 year old Vista laptop, it doesn't detect the Chromecast device even if it is in the same room and using the same WiFi. Does it have to differences in OS or power?

    After upgrades of Yahoo Mail and EBay apps, I no longer get any audio notifications of new messages or sales. I didn't see any setting in each app for this. The Nexus setting is on for notifications with the default sound. Am I missing another place to check or do I have to contact the app...
