Murray | | | I don't use them for phone service, I am strictly using their internet service and it's 40 dollars a month cheaper than xfinity and so far I have had no problems. I am getting speeds that are right around 300 mbps which is plenty and I have streamed movies and been my using laptop and everything is fine.
I am 99.9 percent sure I will be telling xfinity to cease providing me internet service. |

From: Elroy | 5/16/2024 7:38:13 AM | | | | I'm curious if anyone has a Sonos system running on an iPhone or a Windows 11 PC?
I have Sonos speakers and amps in our home. They are all connected via home wifi. The Sonos application runs on both the Windows PC and on the iPhone 15.
When I updated the music library originally from the PC the Sonos desktop app found the PC folder that contains my .xml music file. That file (I believe) contains all of my originally created playlists built over the past 15 years. The music files are on the Windows PC in a D:drive.
I could see the playlists using the Sonon app on the Windows PC or on the iPhone 15. I could select the playlist, select the various Sonos speakers that I want to use, and then play the music on the desired speakers in the home.
Unfortunately Sonos recently had an "update", and I updated the iPhone app. Now all the playlists are gone from both the PC Sonos app and iPhone Sonos app. Without the playlists, I cannot choose which music to play in the home.
I don't stream music from Spotify or Apple Music. I only play music from my library of mp3 files, which are now gone.
I cannot downgrade back to the previous system.
I don't know what to do. The entire $8,000 Sonos home system is rendered unuseable for music in the way that I want to use it.
There is an area in the Sonos 2 iPhone app called Sources. It has two options, TV and Music Library. Inside Music Library there are a variety of options including Imported Playlists. Imported Playlists formerly contained all of my created playlists, but is now empty.
Does anyone know how to tell Sonos app to populate the Imported Playlists with the Playlists on my PC (I can see them in iTunes on the PC, not not in the Sonos app on the PC or iPhone)??
Does anyone have any suggestions for how to force the new Sonos app to see the playlists on the Windows PC drive? |

From: SI Ron (Crazy Music Man) | 5/16/2024 9:04:18 AM | | | | OT Don't know where to post this. Others must have similar questions, perhaps. I have a 30 year old Mont Blanc rollerball, I paid 160 for it 30 years ago. They are now worth around 700 to replace it. I have 3 of these, one was a gift. I can get them fixed, however its extremely expensive.
I was thinking of using CA glue, with an insulin syringe.
Any ideas. I looked on YouTube nothing. Looked on Ebay for parts, nothing. There are so many models of this style of pen. Its gold plated, and acrylic.
These pens are extremely fragile. If they fall off the desk onto a tile floor they will crack.

To: Chartgod who wrote (110234) | 5/16/2024 10:58:13 AM | From: SI Ron (Crazy Music Man) | | | I used to make RC planes, used CA glue. Its thinner than Crazy Glue and I have a syringe. I think I will wing it. If you spend that kind or money for a pen, it should last, everyone drops pens and it doesn't destroy it. The one I have is a roller ball. I don't understand the hype around Mont Blanc. Maybe its a status symbol.
My Uni-ball 207 works fine and you dropping it does nothing. Still I want to fix it. The other 2 are in really bad shape. |
