Can someone please explain how I get rid of the lock screen security on my Note 4. I currently have to swipe my thumb to unlock the screen but always need to enter my code at first startup to unlock the screen. Recently the swipe mechanism is taking much longer to work, but the worst thing is...

Thanks for your help. From everything I'd read on the internet and help facility I thought that the only way to read later was by using a third party app which I just couldn't get to work. The method my son showed me was not obvious to me and didn't seem to be documented anywhere.

Well I'm amazed. After spending about 6 hours trying to fathom this problem, I asked my young son. He showed me how to do it straight away with no need for Pocket or Instapaper. Just open Flipboard, click the icon with four little squares, then click Magazines and everything I've put into Read...

Now it is showing that Flipboard is configured to Pocket with my username, but I still can't read anything later as it just does not show up in Pocket. I've put loads of articles in Flipboards read later, but how do I manage to read it later?

Now it has reverted to saying "no services configured" yet when I click it it shows Pocket and my username with a tick. So that is confusing.

I've changed it as you said and now my username not email is showing in Flipboard under read later Pocket. But I still can't find any read later stuff that I've flipped into read later in Flipboard. It is like there is no connection between Flipboard and Pocket.

I don't know of any other sources than Flipboard so can't check that. In Flipboard settings under read late, it says Pocket and my email. So I presume that us correct. I don't have a clue what page I'm on :) I don't know how to save to Pocket, but just assumed that if I flip an article into...

Just checked again and it says Pocket now, but I still don't know how to read later and can't find anything to click.

I started with Instapaper but couldn't get it working with that. Now I've installed Pocket and put the tick against pocket but it still says Instapaper. Still can't read later.

Thanks for that. I didn't mention that I'm using a Galaxy Note 4. Would the same method apply? Wipe cache partition sounds a bit drastic to someone like me with no idea :) can I possibly do any harm or lose stuff I need doing this?

Could you please explain how would I go about doing all of the above.

My finger print scanner works about once in every 30 swipes and keeps going into the 30 second lock out. Just can't work out what I'm doing wrong. It is just a waste of time.

Thanks very much. I found the Google Play app in the google folder. Had never looked in that folder. All my music including the newly purchased music was in in there, so I will stick with Google Play now.

Thanks for your reply. I have looked on the apps but find no reference to google or Samsung on either. One is called Play Store and the other Music. Both apps were already installed in the phone when I bought it new. With itunes it was simply a case of clicking "Buy" and a few seconds later the...

I have changed from an iphone to a Galaxy Note 3. I got all my old itunes successfully transferred into the Music app on the phone. I have just purchased some new music from the Play Store, but it does not show in the Music app where I expected it to automatically appear. How can I make new...
