Since this came from the Internet, it must all be true! I am so glad that such unbiased, objective advice is available to all of us who have been deluded into thinking that we were actually getting work done with Win 8.1. I feel so embarrassed that I have forgotten to hate it as much as the...

I am by no means a computer expert, but dealing with all varieties of Surface over the past few years has taught me a great deal about Reset/Refresh, Uninstall/Reinstall, etc. Corrupted registry settings remains the bane of the Windows world, and I would never try to "whack the registry...

Count me as one of the fence-sitters as well. I have Win10 loaded on an HP Specter, and I can see how well it performs there. On my SP3, however, I prefer to use the touch commands with which I have become familiar with 8.1. I am sorry, but "Continuum" just is not as fluid as 8.1 IMHO... On the...

I am no expert on TSA regulations, but I have had a flight bag with SPS, phone, multiple chargers and adapters go through the security screen on multiple occasions, and I have never been asked to open the bag for inspection. That is certainly no guarantee that they will not ask you to do so, but...

I'll put in another vote for Office Lens; I use this almost every day with my Lumia Icon, and this app is faster and just as reliable as using a separate scanner. Remarkable technology!

I have tried out the Surface 3 at Best Buy, and I agree with all of the points made by the OP in this thread. If I didn't already have a SP3, and were looking for a new tablet PC right now, I would buy one without hesitation. The Surface 3 would be my choice for web surfing, emails, note taking...

The reason the replacement device did not "fix" the problem, I suspect is because you had your settings saved in OneDrive and simply copied those settings to the new machine. I am sorry you went through all of that grief for such a simple fix; not sure why tech support or the store people did...

You might want to go to the "pictures library" in the file explorer, and choose "properties" after a right click. That will bring up a dialogue showing the folders included in your pictures library. Make sure that you have not only the OneDrive pictures folder there, but also the pictures folder...

Indeed I did; unfortunately there is a high degree of attenuation of the amelioration technique subject to tachyphylaxis. (i.e. it doesn't work after you apply it frequently...)

I hate to say this, guys, but I saw the same yellow streak on the Surface 3 that was on display at Best Buy.

Sorry, I overlooked that you referred to the first Surface Pro version. Those pens are Wacom-based technology, and many Wacom pens work with it. Many of the people in this forum like the Wacom "bamboo" pen. The Samsung "S-pen" should also work.

So, the Spectre looks to be a bit heavier and a little bigger than the Surface, but does indeed have a larger display. Reviewers like the keyboard, and are mixed on the trackpad (no surprise here). I do like the idea of having a quad HD display option, even though that will likely come with...

Also remember that other N-Trig styli will work with the SP3, such as the HTC stylus. There are other threads in this forum that describe these alternatives. Of course, these do not have the Bluetooth button for opening OneNote or capturing a screen shot.

You may need to update OneNote 2013 by going to office.com and reinstalling. For some reason OneNote associated with Office 365 doesn't work (I had the same problem)

If your type about:flags in the address bar of IE 11 in build 9926, you can enable the "experimental web platform" feature. This apparently allows you to see what the new rendering engine is like. I am using it now, and web pages do seem to pop...

Consider a reset of the store app from the command prompt (I believe the command is something like "run MSreset.exe" )

I can see your confusion. There are 2 separate OneNote applications, one called the "Modern" or MUI" application that you are using. There is another "desktop" OneNote 2013 that you can download for free from office.com (you will also get this OneNote as part of the Office 365 suite, and that...

Interesting how names come about in MS world... The original Surface was/is a tabletop touch screen device that in some ways could be considered a "horizontal whiteboard". I have no idea how many have sold. Then of course, the Surface became a tablet PC. We now have another product called...

I am having a "rich experience" viewing this webcast presently.

Make the OneDrive folder containing iTunes media "offline" on your device. If you make any amendments to those files while off-line, synchronization will take place once WiFi is reconnected. You do have to make the OneDrive location your default for iTunes in the advances preferences area of the...
