    LG TV and Microsoft Film & TV app

    You can use either the Project or Connect option to use a Smart TV as a wireless monitor. I just use the Project option out of habit, but they both will do the same thing. The Project method just has a few more options as to how you want the output to be sent to the TV such as using it as a...

    One Drive is full. Will this help?

    Any files you drop into these directories are automatically synced with OneDrive. They are still local copies on your computer, so they still take up space on your hard drive. If you want to have them only on OneDrive and not your PC then you can just upload them via the OneDrive website and...

    LG TV and Microsoft Film & TV app

    What I do to get my laptop to cast to the TV is as follows: On the TV I select the screen share input option and the TV will then wait for a connection. On my laptop I click on the Notifications icon on the bottom right of the tool bar and pick the Project option. The laptop will then scan for...

    can one person use the same facial recognition to log into 2 different profiles

    I think it's possible, though the logistics of it will take a little more effort on your part to make it work correctly each time. This is just a working theory, so no promises. I think what you'd have to do is cover the camera until you select which account you want to use, then let the...

    LG TV and Microsoft Film & TV app

    If you can't find an app for it, you can try screen sharing from the laptop to the TV. Most smart TVs support this as do newer laptop and mobile devices. You won't have to use an HDMI cable to connect the two in order to watch the movies.

    Is there a media player that plays cloud only onedrive files like Groove used to

    Groove still does on Windows Devices. You just can't stream music from it's now defunct music service. I use Groove on my PC and 950XL to listen to music stored on OneDrive.

    I ended up getting the grey Feitenn flip case for my Essential PH-1. My wife got the same case in red.

    Yep, just do the same type of operation starting in GMail. Select the Google Apps icon in the top right of the screen (looks like a box of 9 dots) and pick Contacts. Then Ctrl-A to select all of them. Finally, pick the More Actions icon on the top left (3 vertical dots) and Export. I...

    is windows phone dead

    Transferring my contacts was super simple for me. I just had to login to my Hotmail account on my PC via a web browser and then export my contact list as a .CSV file. Then I logged in to the GMail account I setup for Android and imported that file to my contacts. Took only a few minutes. I...

    The price and availability changes day to day, so it doesn't surprise me that the price has gone up again. Just keep checking and you will probably find the price come back down soon.

    is windows phone dead

    I really wasn't looking forward to switching to Android myself. Mostly because the limited exposure I've had with it was with my step-son's Samsung phone which has it's own custom launcher and apps installed. It just seemed too clunky and convoluted for me compared to W10M. But once I...

    The 950XL has the better camera, especially in low light situations. But the Essential is getting monthly software updates that have been making its camera better each time. The Essential is really quick and has no OEM bloat software installed. It runs pretty much stock Android 9.0 Pie with...

    You can pick one up from Amazon right now for $234.32 which is quite a bit less than buying direct from Essential. Although the deal from Essential includes the 360 camera and case as well.
