Started trying Teamviewer on the Nexus. How do I perform an ESC keypress on a remote Windows computer? Not to mention the various modifiers like CTRL, ALT, and DEL. Thanks.

I did an update, not Android literate enough yet to do a wipe and install. As the nuclear/alien movies might say, "Confidence is high" that a factory reset will solve the problem. But if the factory reset takes me all the way back to the way it was when I walked out of the store with it, that...

The mouse is advertised as compatible with Android tablets 3.1+. It has to be 5.1.1, once you throw in a couple "Stupid Me" moments. :D I have another Bluetooth mouse I bought in 2008 to use with my HTC Mogul cell phone. It was working with the Nexus but then quit. Erroneously, I "assumed"...

Just bought a new Bluetooth mouse to use with my Nexus 7. It won't pair up. It will pair with my iMac with OS X 10.85 Mountain Lion. And the Nexus is seen by the Imac, but I expected that as I have a Bluetooth keyboard that works with the tablet. Does anyone know of any issues before I...

After looking at the screenshots, I think I'd prefer X-plore, so I've just installed it. I'll try to experiment with it during lunch today, see how it goes. I don't think the dual pane view will bother me much, as I have file management software on my Mac and Windows computers that offer that...

Ah, just like some big name outfits we all know of. :D

When it comes to file organization on a computer, I think in a hierarchical manner. It the easiest way for me to understand the file structure of a computer. I'd like to find a file management program that offers a display of the contents of the Nexus file system that is similar to the...

When I first reset the router, nothing worked, I wasn't expecting that result. Then when I thought about the IP addresses, I checked the device list in the router. After changing the IP addresses for all items in File Manager, everything worked except the Mac. Please clarify, what do you mean...

NOTE: Prior to having to manually reset the modem/router due to something happening over night, the following worked... System: Nexus 7 Android 5.1 Wireless network File Manager HD 3.3.1 Read message for additional hardware I've tried everything I can think of, but I cannot log into...

I know that the Android OS is a version of Linux, but when it comes to actually using Linux, I've never gotten very far. Just have never had the time. From a little research just now, am I correct that "rooting" an Android device gives you the same type of permissions that the Administrator...

Android 4.4.2 installed. File Manager HD, version 1.11.5, by Rhythm Software installed. I have a home network of 4 computers. Dual boot XP/Vista, dual boot Win7/Win8.0, Netbook Win7 Starter, iMac OS X Mountain Lion. Using File Manager HD, I've got the tablet set up where I can access shared...

I'm not a gamer in any sense of the word. LOL So, no xbox, ps3, or other console. But I have installed allcast. But I need to have something like the Roku or Apple TV to use it. Looks like I'm stuck having to try out places like Netflix and Hulu (Plus) and others to see if I can do what I...

Any particular model of Roku, Seth?

Another piece of hardware for me to check out. LMAO!!!!! Thanks, I appreciate the info.

I don't think you misunderstood as much as I know too little about tablets, streaming, etc. My computer uses have always centered around productivity software and uses. Scanners, desktop publishing, office suites, and the like. When I wrote the original post, I basically assumed readers would...
