Just bumping this as I'm really out of ideas!

Hi folks, I'm finally clearing out my old Windows Phones and ensuring I have everything I need off them backed up, etc. I have an old Samsung Omnia 7 and I'm really struggling to get the photos off there. When I connect it to a Surface Pro, it recognised 'something' but I had the USB Composite...

Hello, thanks for the help - I didn't find anything and ended up just getting a secondhand Surface Pro 4 keyboard. Thanks again!

Yes I think you're right! Shame but I suppose not a total surprise...

Alas I think it was a bit beyond my skills and I'm not sure it was quite the same issue. I'm not sure if it was the button or something more internal that had gone. In the end I bought another keyboard second hand though I've saved the old one just in case. Thanks again for your help.

Thanks, I'll take a look!

Hello, I need a new keyboard for my Surface Pro 4 but the official version is quite expensive so wondered about the compatible versions. However, they all seem to connect via Bluetooth and I've had mixed experiences with the reliability of Bluetooth keyboards. Is anyone aware of any compatible...

Hello, Some whiskey (!) was spilt on my surface pro 4 keyboard and then cleaned up with anti bacterial wipe / spray, since then the '2' button hasn't worked and I noticed pressing the space bar seems to input an 'a' as well so it shows 'a '. Bizarrely the Z button is also increasing the volume...

Thanks for the replies, weirdly if an app updated it restored it to my App List. In the end I managed to pop the achievement I needed and did a hard reset and had everything back up and running within half an hour!

My Lumia 950 started popping up some error notifications so I rebooted and it would only take me to a screen with the background image and a search bar across the top. I messed around with it and somehow the People app appeared so I realised it's the App list. I pinned it to Start and the Start...

Thanks, don't know what it was but I rebooted the phone and now it lets me log out, much better! Ta!

I have two Windows Phones so want to be able to have two different Xbox accounts on them for some achievements where I need a second player. I don't want to have to hard reset though as I'll lose progress on other games. It looks like there is no way to do this on Windows Phone 8, but there is...

I've just gone back to my old Omnia 7 to try unlock some more achievements on old games like Tentacles, managed to unlock one but it doesn't register outside of the game at all. Also, all the Xbox Live games keep crashing all the time as well. It's quite hit and miss whether they stay open...

I've been hanging on for a Surface Phone for a year or two now, and my Lumia 1020 is feeling it's age a bit. If it looks like any Surface Phone wouldn't be until 2018 at the earliest I'm tempted to get a 950 for the sake of £100 or so. Reviews on here make it seem like it's worth it.

Thanks. Just seen a site mentioning how it's done and it involved cutting a heat sink link, which I'm not too keen on! I'll have to see how it goes and if I can hang on until the Surface Phone comes out!

I'm worried my Lumia 1020's battery's dying. It seems to be draining really fast, to the point where even with minimal use I wouldn't expect it to last to the early evening having started the day on full charge. I've had it since launch so it's a few years old now - anyone else's battery going...

Thanks, I'm not sure the issue is clear. Mail runs fine - Calendar has stopped syncing properly since the web Outlook update MS did a few weeks ago. It's wiped one of the synced calendars and it doesn't appear to sync properly between phone and web.

Thanks again but no updates available. Are you saying the issue hasn't been fixed on wp8.1?

Thanks, glad to know it's not just me. Forgot to mention I'm using a Lumia 1020 on WP8.1 or whatever, doesn't look like a Calendar update is available - is this something just fixed for WP10 users?

As the title says, anyone else had issues with their Calendar since the web update of Outlook Microsoft have done? It changed all the colours of my Calendar, seems to have removed my wife's calendar that I had integrated, and has taken the dates off any tasks I had on, but new tasks have the...
