    Facebook events in Windows Calendar is broken

    ​I changed the password to my Microsoft account a couple of days ago and now Facebook events won't sync to my Windows Phone, nor my Surface 2, nor in the online microsoft calendar application. It shows old events but new ones doesn't pop up. I've tried various settings in the apps and in my...

    SkyDrive to OneDrive on Surface 2?

    On my Surface 2 SkyDrive is still called, well, SkyDrive. I was wondering if you guys' Surfaces have updated the app and desktop application to OneDrive automatically and if not how to do it? Thanks :)

    Need help with Windows 8.1 RT

    Damn, then I'll just have to live with the update procedure then. Not that it's a problem, I was just wondering . :) Mail: Yes I think it behaves as you describe, however if the app is closed for some time it'll revert to the behavior I described. O.o

    Need help with Windows 8.1 RT

    Hi there, Is there a way to control the updates in Windows 8.1 RT? I like to keep an eye on the flow of updates of apps as well as the system in general, but I can't find a way to change how the system handles system updates and the only option for apps seem to be either install automatically...

    What can you do with a SD card in a Surface 2?

    As the title says, what can you do with a SD card in a Surface 2? Can you install apps on it? Can you force SkyDrive to synchronize to the card instead of the built-in memory? Is it difficult to set up?

    Thanks a lot. I've been looking some more into it and I've found solutions to most of the stuff. And the jack works fine. Just needed a bit of force. Thanks! :)

    New Surface 2 and a couple of questions

    I got a Surface 2 for Christmas and I'm so happy with it. It's such an awesome tablet! :D I have a few questions, though, that I hope you guys can help me with. 1. The Start Screen doesn't feature a clock but Live Tile Clocks exist. Only problem is that the ones I've tried only work for a...

    WP 7.8 live tiles doesn't work

    Yeah well I hear what you are saying, but a new phone is not on the top of my priority list at the moment. It would have been nice if Microsoft would at least have made sure things work on 7.8 now that they decided to abandon their early adopters... I have tried all sorts of settings, enabling...

    WP 7.8 live tiles doesn't work

    I have a Lumia 800 running Windows Phone 7.8 and not all of my Live Tiles work. The problem is my Facebook app. For the sake of testing, I have installed 3 FB apps: "Facebook" by Microsoft, "Facebook Beta" by Microsoft and "JDB Faebook Pro". Facebook Beta is stuck on 1 notification and the 2...

    Why do Windows tablets have a physical Windows button?

    Fair just asking. ;) What functionality does it have besides the obvious back to start screen?

    Why do Windows tablets have a physical Windows button?

    As the title says: why do Windows tablets have a physical Windows button on the screen/frame? There is a universal one in the charms bar already and if you flip the tablet to portrait mode they will be exactly next to each other which is just weird. It seems redundant to me.

    I need some advice bad

    That was exactly what I needed to hear. This unification is not going to happen any time soon so it's not to know what happens in a couple of years, but I'm glad to hear that with all the rumours that's going on, if a unification were to happen tomorrow the current RT devices would be able to...

    I need some advice bad

    I see. Now, I'm not too adept in the inner workings of software design, but would you say that from a technical point of view it would seem unlikely that Microsoft leaves their RT devices behind indeed because the software is already so unified that updating one part is not much different from...
