it's there, tap the bell icon edit: Doh! In reply to quick vibrate/ring switch

Well for starters it could be a library to hold your games. Currently it is a mishmash of phones/xbox/windows 8 "games" (mostly advertising) and while you can find games and launch from there it is rather clumsy and inefficient.

From what I understand the photo app will have basic image editing added to it (crop, rotation, etc), so this is probably FAR from the finished app. It is odd however, that they chose to insert this one in 8.1 rather than retain the old one, and wait until the new one was ready to release. It's...

The messaging app is gone! Okay, cool I'll use their other 1st party app, Skype. The Facebook features aren't included in Skype for Windows 8! They really need to think this stuff through....

I don't know if it was 26 but I got a boatload of updates randomly the other night. It felt like It took several restart cycles to have it stop saying "finish updates and restart".

This is the comparison: When Jet Force Gemini came out for the N64 their team was asked whether or not they wanted to require the optional "expansion pack" (remember that thing?) They decided AGAINST it, because they knew every gamer DIDN'T have the expansion pack so it was a safe bet they would...

Those are the real features... to you. To me, Family Sharing was a "real" feature. As for the 300k servers, developers will be less inclined to use them for "mind-blowing" stuff since they want the biggest market and won't want to excluded the "offline" players out there. For the same reason...

I have yet to cancel my order but I did write MS a letter as well last night. The DRM didn't bother me (I have worked on two AAA titles so of course I want developers to get paid) and I was looking forward to family sharing, no disc changing, giving away digital licensing, having a roaming...

I see what you mean, but the actual functionality is different. You're seeing as a monitor folder that auto-uploads when really its is an auto-upload being triggered by an event. I agree that it should be a setting, but I don't agree that it's functionaility is that of a monitored folder...

do these settings reintroduce the xbox music bug (in other words what causes the bug, I don't find my RT slow, I find that app slow, and just want to fix that.)

I am confused by what you are asking? If you install the skydrive app is the camera roll folder not in there (it is for me.) To upload, in the pictures app, you can be on a picture, open charms, select share, select skydrive.

Weird how the C# xaml apps are fine, and the HTML5/JS apps are laggy and sucky... wait no it isn't.

In fact, it never means Windows Phone.

this is what I did with my (unofficial) one. Works perfect.

smartglass version of "The Hobbit" works and is cool as hell. Pauses the film for you if you start getting into sections of the app and don't want to miss the film, cues up the scenes its referring too, includes A LOT of artwork and behind the scenes stills, also has 3d models of some of the CG...

Am I missing this? Can I not pin anything to the screen from the music app? It's frustrating enough on my 8x that I need to have at least one song by an artist phycially on my phone to pin it, (why can't I pin anybody especially as an xbox music subscriber!?) but to not be able to at all...

I received my 8x through Bing rewards, 2 days ago. I love it, a worthy replacement to my Titan. People constantly make fun of me for using bing, I think I got the last laugh.

(hold the power button slightly longer than before to wake it)

Re: Hellllp!!!;;; This may sound stupid, but I was so used to my Surface that when the recent update rolled out that increased the required "press time" to wake rolled out, I reset (I believe by holding down the volume buttons and the power button or something) TWICE. Two effing times I...

They added a magnifiying glass iconButton to the mail app and Hulu app since people are just not getting the universal search (in both case they are just a shortcut to the charm). Just going to be a matter of time as people learn the new OS
