    Outlook for Android archive folder

    How did you select all emails in the folder? It's easy on a computer but I have not found any way to do so on a phone.

    And that tells me what I need to do. Appreciate the idea.

    Upgraded phone not seeing photos

    Kind of a backhand way of doing it but that would work. Thanks.

    Upgraded phone not seeing photos

    The reason this thread started is because I used to be able to connect my phone to my PC, put it in File Transfer mode, and then log into Facebook, etc. and upload photos. But since I upgraded my phone, the only photos that I can access are the ones I've taken on the new phone. This is not the...

    Upgraded phone not seeing photos

    I put it in airplane mode as you suggested but the results were mixed. I had all photos going back through 2014 but starting in December 2013, some of the photos were there but many had just a rectangle (with a tiny cloud icon at the bottom) where the photo would be. A couple of months ago I...

    Upgraded phone not seeing photos

    That is news to me. I never heard of that before.

    Upgraded phone not seeing photos

    It doesn't matter if I use Chrome or Edge. When I'm in USB Connection File Transfer mode, I open File Explorer, then Internal shared storage. I've looked through every folder and subfolder in there and don't see a folder labeled Archived nor the migrated pics. But while still connected to the PC...

    Upgraded phone not seeing photos

    I recently upgraded from an old Pixel to a Pixel 8 Pro. The process went smoothly but I've run into an issue. When I view the pictures on the phone by using the Photos app, I see all of the pictures that got migrated from my old phone as well as the pictures I've taken with the new phone...

    Transferring browser tabs

    Yes both connected via home wi-fi. I found that your method is supposed to work for Chrome but it appears it only works for tabs open on a PC to sync to a phone. So it's looking more and more like I'm out of luck for get these tabs synced the easy way and will have to do it the hard way. I do...

    Transferring browser tabs

    I tried your suggestion and verified that syncing History is enabled on both phones (has been for some time) but on the new phone after opening Edge and tapping Tabs (at the bottom), I don't see anywhere to tap "Recent Tabs From Other Devices". Across the top of the app are what looks like 3...

    Thanks for that suggestion! I'll try it and let you know the result.

    Transferring browser tabs

    I agree 100% with a desktop browser but I've not had any problem with my mobile browser which is Edge.

    Transferring browser tabs

    Well I'm disappointed in that since per what I found, the tabs do sync with the desktop version. I was even hoping that they might sync between mobile and desktop but such is not the case. So I have a lot of work ahead of me. Ugh.

    Transferring browser tabs

    No I'm referring to tabs that are open in the mobile browser. The icon for them is at the bottom and the number in it indicates the number of tabs there are. The bookmarks all synced with no issue.

    Transferring browser tabs

    I have a new Pixel to replace my old Pixel. All has gone well except for transferring the open tabs in Edge and Chrome. All of my lookup so far suggests that as along as I'm signed into the same account in the browsers and have sync enabled and tabs selected, then they will sync. Unfortunately...

    Outlook for Android archive folder

    In Outlook for Android there is an Archive folder. The folder is specific to the phone app as it doesn't exist in Outlook online or Outlook on a PC desktop. I don't use this Archive folder and so I was surprised when I looked in it and found a lot of emails in it. I recognized them as being...

    Change by Android 12

    There's one thing that Android 12 removed on my Pixel and I'm not exactly happy about it. I enjoyed the "sunrise" feature of Bedtime Mode which gradually lightened the screen to simulate a sunrise rather than being treated to a dark room when the alarm goes off. Is there any possible way this...

    Voice typing

    I recently upgraded to Android 12 on my Pixel 3A XL and all is working good except now when I try to use voice to enter text messages, I tap the microphone icon and it very briefly enters into the mode where you can speak to create message but then right away stops and displays "Tap to speak". I...

    Help Upgrading phone

    My wife has an Essential phone which we're getting ready to upgrade. We're with Sprint so of course getting a T-Mobile phone. They are offering us a free upgrade to a 5G phone and I believe our area has good coverage for it but I'm not sure whether to go with one of them or just get her a Pixel...

    Remove entry from My Sounds

    How do you delete items from the My Sounds section in the Phone ringtone area? I found out how to add but can't see how to remove. JL

    Pixel turns off without warning

    For the last few months my Pixel (gen 1) has started arbitrarily turning off anytime the power level gets about 50% or less. It doesn't to the "powering off" like when you choose to turn it off. It just turns off. You have to plug it in before it will turn back on. Needless to say this is very...

    Transfer text messages to PC for review

    Is there any free software available to install on a PC so a Samsung S8 can be connected to the PC and all text messages copied to the PC so they are in readable format? I've found programs that will do SMS backup but the backup is in a format on the PC that doesn't allow viewing. I need to be...

    Accessing data when screen doesn't work

    I dropped my Nexus 5 and now the screen doesn't work. It's not broken or cracked but there's no display and it doesn't respond to touch. The phone itself works as it signals when email comes in (via wifi) and alarms I had set go off. I was told at the store that the connection betwee I have...

    Help Only a few contacts showing in email app

    My wife's S4 has a problem I haven't run into on any other Android phone so far. She runs the Email app and then composes a new email. To address it she brings up the contact list or does a contact search and only about 6 contacts show up. However when you open the Contacts app there are about...

    Is there a way to use an .mp3 file on my phone as the message people get when I don't answer and it goes to voicemail? JL
