Have you looked at google calendar?

skinny - 03 Dec 2013 10:36 - 10416 of 11003

A quick look seems to imply that the Nexus 5 has a calendar app?

"Apps
Google Nexus 5 (Unlocked)Blissfully bloatware-free, the unlocked version of the Nexus 5 comes preloaded only with Google's own array of apps. You'll find such usual suspects as Gmail, Maps, Calendar, YouTube and Hangouts, as well as newer options, like Keep for taking notes."

What's wrong with a piece of paper and a pencil, oh, and a drawing pin to stick it on the door/wall? :o)

My new tablet is finally all up and running,i have a Android phone but this is the 1st time that i have downloaded alot of apps and its made it so versatile with not only WiFi but 3G as well.

Only slight problem i had was installing FireFox but the new beta version works very good.

Thank you all for answering my questions,oh and skinny :-)

Haystack - 04 Dec 2013 20:15 - 10419 of 11003

There is a way of installing Flash for Firefox.

I use the standard Firefox and rarely use the Beta version.

Anyone know what the problem is with this email (that I am sending) that keeps getting returned with the following message please? The person knows that I am not the only one not able to get emails to him so it's something wrong his end, but what!

The following message to +++++++++++++++++++++ was undeliverable.
The reason for the problem:

Are you sure you have the right email address and that you have constructed it properly. It indicates an unknown email address and the remote mail server has bounced it.

skinny - 05 Dec 2013 17:30 - 10422 of 11003

Beat me to it!

Stan - 05 Dec 2013 17:50 - 10423 of 11003

Well it got through last night he returned one today but my return today just keeps bouncing back.

Haystack - 05 Dec 2013 19:24 - 10424 of 11003

Another possibility is that the target mailbox is full.

Stan - 05 Dec 2013 19:53 - 10425 of 11003

Thanks H/S, I will suggest that to him.

I've just bought two new monitors for my setup, each has a res of 1920 x 1080, but my current dual head graphics card doesn't support that. I suspect I may need two cards. Does anyone have any suggestions about a suitable card, because I'm struggling.

I don't want one with a large power demand as my PSU is fairly low power.

hangon - 06 Dec 2013 13:18 - 10427 of 11003

FWIW, I thought most dedicated graphics cards costing £50+ would support two monitors - time to go to yr PC dealer and see what's available. As graphics cards can consume a fair bit of power, it might be time to upgrade the PSU - at least then that can't become an issue and with luck the new unit will be quieter and give yr PC a new lease of life . . . Modest PSUs should be under £50 - but Dealers may be a tad more. However, they may be prepared to fit it - with all those wires, I'd say "Yes-please".

+I have a 500Mb separate graphics card with 3 outputs...and can use two at the same time - HDMI, DVI, VGA ( the last is a rather poor Analogue signal). The HDMI allows me to use the TV which is sharper than my LCD Monitor....but it's less convenient although the plus is that I can use the HiFi. Modern cards are typically 2G, but a larger Memory indicates greater processing power (so more heat/noise), whereas mine is fanless.
-BTW I never did get on with two monitors - having half the program "somewhere else" was not what I expected. I thought it would take all the workings onto the other screen, leaving me with the bigger picture for Graphics/editing - but it never did. I'm writing this using the old LCD monitor.(saves power!)

Seymour Clearly - 08 Dec 2013 14:11 - 10428 of 11003

Thanks Hangon, I think a trip to my local dealer is in order then. I was thinking about that although I like to do this sort of stuff myself usually. But these PSUs have a lot of wires as you say!

500Mb card? That's a monster!

Haystack - 08 Dec 2013 14:53 - 10429 of 11003

500Mb is small these days

My kids have a 2Gb card which is just medium quality

Seymour Clearly - 08 Dec 2013 15:44 - 10430 of 11003

Yes, I've just realised what a stupid comment that was :-)

That's a nice looking card, not sure my PC is up to it!!! At £2799 it's got to be a steal.

Haystack - 08 Dec 2013 16:04 - 10431 of 11003

We saleays buy graphics cards from CEX. They do second hand stuff guaranteed 3 months.

We have bought monitors, PCs and graphics cards. They have all been excellent and very cheap.

Blackberry has a facilty that allow many Emails to be sent realtime to your phone,trouble is i dont have one of those phones but is a app available for Android phones so that you can use the same facilty or a similar type of thing ???

Seymour Clearly - 12 Dec 2013 09:04 - 10433 of 11003

Not sure about that, but Blackberry do a BBM messenger as a free download now.

skinny - 12 Dec 2013 09:19 - 10434 of 11003

I know nothing about Blackberry, but can't you achieve what you want via the 'sync frequency' settings on Android - albeit at the expense of battery life?
