OK, today I connected as exchange using m.hotmail.com and it worked... for the calendar, but nothing else (no contacts)... I then deleted and mucked around, readded and nothing at all now. I can see my calendars to select, but the actual events do not appear in any app...

Hmm need to know the server details then I guess. I know I have an autodicover record pointing somewhere, but not sure if thats one and the same

Tried to connect as exchange but it failed. I'm using outlook.com premium and have my own custom domain. Guess need to manually set it up...

Was using the stock photo app. Simple gallery not too bad once tweaked.

Pulling my hair out. Picked up a Mi A1 which for the price is a great phone. OneDrive app only caches files to hidden cache. Groove app does the same (and no way to get it to SD card). Copied all music to SD card manually, but now photos app picks up art in those folders. If I use .nomedia...

I did notice that in OneDrive some tracks showed first (the last one in an album normally). Since I could not edit the metadata in OneDrive (or in Groove since it is cached) I just lived with it, but for sure found it strange because numerically it should order correctly.

So it took the best part of two full days to get it all downloaded. NoSleep semi-worked. I think you have to start the phone, open Groove, open NoSleep then immediately use the long press back to switch to Groove, then stand on one leg.... and if you're lucky the lock screen stays off. I had to...

I checked and I have 12,201 tracks, and about 5,000 got imported in the ~12 hours yesterday when I managed to keep the lock screen disabled. Then it just stopped.... there was some message (I forget exactly, but more or less 'there are no more downloads') so I was forced to select all tracks...

BTW I completely screwed up my music last night. I realised that it had not in fact downloaded everything, so I selected download all and started again. But did it select all the tracks that were missing?.......No! It deleted everything that was already downloaded and started again. I am so...

All my files are tagged correctly anyway. I presume this is just some editor and it is not going to go and look up and fix the data? I found out yesterday that Groove uses Gracenote, but I cannot work out how to search that to see why it thinks my tags are not correct,

Yeah I got it. Cannot work out how to edit the metadata, which is one of the things tagged for this version. I thought I had all files downloaded, but apparently not. So I have just selected 'All' tracks again and it seems to be downloading the missing ones. The NoSleep app doesn't seem to be...

I switched to insider and preview release builds a couple days before anniversary come out (should have just waited), but so far no real problems. My groove app version is 3.6.2304.0 so quite a way behind you. I selected 'all songs' and download, and it has been hit and miss with some lock ups...

Are you running on the fast ring? Just wondering if a later version of Groove might have extra options (or at least ones that work)...

Nah, it doesn't. Put the new SD card in and hit sync, it greyed out for about a minute then went blue again. The only album offline was the one I manually set to download. I guess I could go into songs, toggle all, then download that way, but its hardly going to keep it 'in sync'. I'm just so...

Arggghh! Hate it when it is so obvious. I glossed over that bit because it was to do with the music pass. I'm waiting for a new SD card to be delivered today (200Gb Sandisk for ?60 which I thought was quite good). So I will wait and try it on that one (rather than do it twice). Thanks again for...
