    How to do? Graph Math Functions

    Thank you. So I don't need to install the Mathematics Add-in. I should have looked before. I can't find the graph function? Thanks, again. Bill B

    How to do? Graph Math Functions

    Looking at the Microsoft commercial for the Surface 3 at time 0:37 the student is plotting/graphing the 3 math functions on the left. I believe she is using OneNote. How is this done? Thanks, Bill B.

    Videos on Micro SD card

    Been there done that, gave up the madness. The trick, I learned, was to be sure the files are MP4 and not M4V. Set MP4 as your default. Use the High Profile and you should be golden. Don't forget this http://www.webluke.net/2011/08/handbrake-windows-7-64-bit-dvd-ripping/ (with the current...

    CalDAV and CardDAV Support for Google Calendar... Missing?

    Even more disappointing is the loss of integration with Facebook, Flickr, and more in Calendar and Photos. In some ways, 8.1 looks like Microsoft has abandoned the idea of Hubs becoming a centralized collection point for information.

    They Broke the Facebook Site! (Showing Mobile Now)

    Thanks! This fixed the problem. Now, just to wait for the real 8.1.

    Type Cover causes Battery to run down

    I would think a crafty person would be able to come up with another color. Just cover the existing polar fleece with a new piece.

    Type Cover causes Battery to run down

    Yes, this is with RT 8.1 and Bluetooth is enabled. Again, I do not have this problem with a Touch Cover.

    Type Cover causes Battery to run down

    I'd just like to know if anyone else is having this problem. I have a Touch Cover and a Type Cover. When I use the Touch Cover I get great battery life. Using the Type Cover I find battery life is very limited - just a few hours. If I move the Surface RT it wakes up even though the cover is...

    People Syncing

    Hmm. Confused, I am. Mine just plain worked as you described. Did you link the people app with your live account? I don't remember specifically, but you may have to go through settings, accounts and select your live account.

    Xbox Music Downloading All My Songs Over Again?

    Yeah, Fun. Isn't it? Xbox Music on Surface is roughly equivalent to something you scrape off your shoe. I think they've finally realized it isn't nearly as good as Zune. At least they haven't made that claim in a while. My problem is duplicates. They changed databases or something so music...

    New to Surface RT and have some questions

    I love my Surface RT but it is definitely a version 1.0 device. That said, it's going to get a whole lot better when Version 8.1 of Windows comes out. The Modern UI version of Internet Explorer is limited in a number of ways. First, to keep it simple and second to keep it secure. There is no...

    People Hub Crashes

    I haven't been able to get and answer from answers.microsoft.com so I'm hoping to find a resolution here. Frequently, (not always) the people hub on my Windows RT, Surface RT will fail to refresh. If I manually refresh (swipe up from bottom - touch Refresh) the app locks up and then restarts...

    Surface Pro vibration/tactile feedback?

    The volume control can silence or reduce the intensity of tactile feedback on Surface RT. I suppose the same applies to the Pro.

    E-Mail App - FAIL

    I give up. I'm no longer using the default e-mail app. This thing is so terrible I hope the people responsible are standing on a street corner with tin cups! Along with confusing and confounding settings, constant failures to synchronize with my ISP, and wonky user controls (anyone remember drag...

    When is Surface getting new Apps!

    I'd like to see the Windows 7 Touch Pack apps. Lagoon is beautiful. The games fun. Collage and Globe are great. There were some great touch centric apps for XB (Billiards) and Vista (Crossword) that are also notable and would be great on Surface.

    Apple Magic Mouse w Surface

    The OP was not clear which Surface they were talking about but, since this thread was started before the Surface Pro was released, they must be working with the Surface Rt. Of course, this means you can't run just any software on it. Hopefully some bright tech enthusiast will some day write...

    Mount Micro SDXC Card

    So, I tried this last night. It seems to be working. I think I've finally found a solution to this mess of using the SD card to expand storage on my Surface RT. Will post again in a few days. Thanks.
