    There’s No Such Thing as a Pro 5, Says Surface Creator Panos Panay

    Good. I would have run out to buy a SP5 mainly because I didn't buy a SP4 in order to wait for a SP5. But truth is my SP3 is running better than ever thanks to Windows updates and so I don't really need to but a new computer so I will save a lot of money! Now I just have to wait for the newly...

    Creators Update Silence?

    Always a bummer when a MICROSOFT OS trashes a MICROSOFT flagship application suite.

    Creators Update Silence?

    For me the Creators Update fixed an issue I had connected to some WiFi networks at work, especially a new 5G WLAN. But it broke Edge, causing it to freeze frequently, but the last Cumulative Update fixed that.

    Mouse Cursor Sticking

    The halo looks like the phantom touches some of us had (search this forum for it, there's lots of posts). If using a mouse when it happens the cursor jumps to that spot. Mine got fixed after Windows updates. What version of Windows are you running and have you applied all updates?

    Largest Reliable Micro SD available for the SP4?

    Define "relatively cheap" please. All I can find on Amazon at 1TB that call themselves credit card size are over $1000, and the regular sized portable external USB SSDs are over $300. I've been waiting for the price to come down, is there another place I should be shopping?

    Surface Pro 4 Memory Error When Shutting Down

    I get this sometimes, but it usually flashes on the screen during shut down so quick I cant tell if it's always at the same memory location. I always assume there's a bad bit of RAM. Is it always at the same memory location? (I,BTW, don't seem to have any problems. I don't have any apps that...

    Surface Pro 5 Discussion

    o_Oo_O Glad you like your SP4. I'm still loving and using daily my SP3 as I wait patiently for the SP5. Your observations are very true and have been since the original Macintosh and Windows 3.1, with the caveat that Microsoft has gotten better at features of the OS and top notch hardware. I...

    Problems with Office 2016

    I've had PowerPoint (but not any other Office 365) crash and restart itself after closing and saving a file on OneDrive, but it seems updating fixed it. It hasn't been an issue, other than having it restart and I have to click the close X again, I've never lost a file and it always did save may...

    surfacepro4_bmr_155_6.6.0.zip

    I too have had trouble downloading this from the MS site with it downloading about 3GB worth and then saying it couldn't be downloaded and to call customer service. But with perseverance it finally did. So all I can advise is to keep trying.

    Pro4 keyboard falls off for my EMT use

    As much as I love the Surface, I cannot see using it with the keyboard in the back of an ambulance. Unless you can use it without the keyboard using the on screen keyboard to enter text. Your company (or municipality) that provides the SP4 for your documentation should have your call sheet made...

So because of seeing this post I tried again. First time it took several hour, downloaded about 2.6GB and then said it couldn't...

    Surface Pro 4 Audio Input

    @turgut.taskin said "The pin is not sticking out of the hole. There is a hole in audio output slot but inside there is a very thin pin which does not allow normal jack in." You mean inside the 3.5mm headphone jack there is a pin preventing you from plugging the headphones in? Sounds like either...

    How to Fix Ghost Touches?

    Some were getting those phantom touches but after a while it was fixed. If you just upgraded to Win10 there are a lot of updates which should eventually install and that may fix this.
