That's incredibly disappointing.

So I had an opportunity to do a Skype meeting today and it worked, though I had to play with my sound settings and default devices to make it work. Still no dice on getting it to work with my VoIP phone, which is super disappointing. So Skype yes, but VoIP no. Which is weird, I don't see the...

I didn't think I'd have this issue so I'm a bit miffed. I bought a set of Surface Headphones to replace my wired headset at work. The goal was to go wireless and listen to music while retaining the ability to answer calls with our Cisco IP Communicator. Now I think I'm discovering that I can't...

I've been with the Windows Phone ecosystem since WP7 but I finally had to give up the ghost last month. After convincing my wife to switch from iPhone to an HTC 8X at the onset of WP8.1 it's been a battle. Losing critical apps related to banking and driving were difficult to explain away...

My wife emailed the AOL tech support folks for clarification. Here's their response. Sounds like massive miscommunication between the PR team and tech support. I'm inclined to believe the tech support guys below but I really don't want my wife to have to deal with the pains of owning a Windows...

My wife just got an email from AOL regarding her account stating that after April 27th she won't be able to access her mail through Internet Explorer/Windows Phone, at least that's how I'm reading it. I'm assuming that she will still have access through the Outlook mail app, can anyone confirm...

Any notable update from your experience? Just read the article on an update for Facebook and twitter notifications and was hoping to see what other users have to say about one of our few watch options out there.

re: That allows you to scroll through text one letter at a time. Nice if you need to correct spelling.

I took the plunge and got into the fast ring of the insider program and updated my Lumia 928 however I can't find the glance screen settings now. Where I believe it should be (Extras) it's not there. If I do a search for it in the settings menu nothing shows up. I installed sysapp pusher and it...

Yeah, you need to actually touch the message and not the name of the app. This goes for all notifications. For example if you've received several emails through Outlook you'll see "Outlook" displayed as a header, for lack of a better term, and then each email subject below that. Tapping the...

Don't slide up, pull down. Exact opposite motion. Edit: From the top of the screen, specifically

Assuming you didn't see the toast notification you can 1. Double tap screen or hit power button 2. Pull down the notifications menu 3. Tap the text message in question to respond/read

Are you sure your Media + Apps volume is up? Can you hear music and other sounds? This is for the Windows Phone version of Cortana, correct?

Consider this wishful thinking, but with the Project Astoria would it be possible to use Android Wear devices like the Moto 360 with Windows 10 Mobile? I imagine there are still compatibility issues but would love to pair a nicer smart watch with my phone. Or will Windows 10 have better smart...

Didn't know it could do that, guess I've never seen an article pinned on the website before.
