Hello all,
in the week view of the calendar on my old phone, XDA NEO (Win Mob 5.0), I got a small preview of the appointment when tabbing on the entry. Tabbing on the preview opens the detailed view of the appointment.
On the Diamond, tabbing on an entry immediately opens the detailed view. A preview is only shown when skipping between the appointments using the left and right keys. That is not that convenient.
Is there a possibility to switch to the "old" behaviour?
Best regards and thank you in advance
I've spent a couple of hours looking at the big photo sharing sites but I'm sort of confused as to which one I should go with. I'm mainly going to use it to share photos with friends and family. Nothing public. I've looked at the following sites:
Flickr
Windows Live Photos
Picasa Web Albums
Photobucket
My ISP's own photo sharing.
Here is my criteria:
1. When inviting friends, they should not have to sign up before viewing photos. Most will not bother signing up. I should be able to send them a link via email and then when they click on it, it should just bring them to the gallery.
2. When I upload new photos or update an album, the site should automatically notify my friends and family via email that something has changed.
3. Possibly have friends upload their own photos to the same album or new album. I could create a public user id on that site so that my friends and family can log in using that account. Rather than creating an account of their own. Couple this with #2 above, I think it would work well.
Can somebody recommend a photo sharing site that can do this or anything that is close enough to the criteria above?
Thanks in advance.
you wanna so much
maybe if you have a server and make your own you can give all this offer to your friends.
I use both flickr, ms photo sharing and googles Picasa
all of them are free and works for my needs
I've decided to use Windows Live Services because it does most of what I need... and also because I have a hotmail account. Those of my friends that have live or hotmail accounts can be on my "network" and they receive updates of new photos that get uploaded by me and vice versa. they can comment on my photo and I've given them permission to upload their own photos - like when we go out to a dinner party and they have pics of me, they can upload it to my album.
Those that don't have a live/hotmail account are still able to view my album, but they will not be able to add additional photos.
With the addition of Windows Live Photo Gallery, I don't even need to open a browser to upload photos, I can do it all from within that app. I found that it uploads to flickr accounts too.
Nice, I think Microsoft has done a decent job with these Live services.
with the program gladinet cloud desktop
you can access your live dirs such as photo sharing as a drive
Z in my computer
I use that to easy navigate files around using total commander

Thanks for the tip. I'll give it a try.
This might sound obvious, but have you tried facebook?
So many people have a facebook account these days that you shouldn't particularly need to worry about them having to sign up just to view your photos, and it should do everything else you need.
Alternatively, flickr is probably your next best bet.

Actually, yes, I've tried facebook. The problem with it is that I haven't figured out how to share photos with specific people (like family only). If I upload some pictures of my kids, it seems like your entire friend list can view these photos. Not good considering that I have some friends who are just acquaintances.
I've been playing around with Windows Live and the more I use it the more I'm liking it. The Windows Live Photo Gallery (an install to your PC) makes uploading photos so easy. Also, the web interface for Windows Live Services looks very good... unlike Google's.
The one thing that I love about Windows Live Photos is that you can share photos with people who are not a part of Windows Live. You basically send out a specialised URL to an email address and that person just clicks it to view the photo gallery. People who are on Windows Live and are a part of your network have even more options. They get instant updates on when you add photos or comment on a photo. Not only this, Windows Live is about permissions. When you setup an album, you have several options on who you want to share it with and what they can do with it (ie. upload their own photos). I don't think anyone else has this kind of functionality.
The other thing that I just discovered with Windows Live is that if you have a camera phone (who doesn't nowadays) and you have a data plan, you can actually upload photos to specific albums from your phone. All you do is enable the feature in Windows Live and for each album assign a keyword + secret word. This keyword+secretword combination makes up a unique email address. Hence, once you've taken the photo, just email it to the unique email address and it gets put into your album automatically and instantly. All the people on your network will get notified of a new photo. That's pretty neat...
Microsoft has really done a good job with their Live services.... now, if only they could get the Live calendar to sync to my WM device OTA... then I would consider becoming a MS fanboy.
ckl...that's very good info on windows live! I'll check it out since it sounds a lot more flexible than the Flickr I'm using...
I've always been a big fan of Picasa. It's one of the Google services that's being integrated with mobile devices along with PC and Mac platforms. So not only do you have online access, but also mobile/desktop access. I likey :].
I got the officesuite pro 2.0 but still when I receive an email on my exchange account I am not able to download the power point attachment from the email.
Does anyone has figure a work around on this?
Thanks All!
The built in (and free) QuickOffice provides read-only access to ppt's.
I view then from my Exchange mail almost every day... no problems.
Can't edit though of course...

Hello Windows phone users,
Last year I got my ageing Dad a Lumia 620 for Fathers day, thinking the simple tiled interface would be easier for him to get to grips with.
I threw the Hotmail tile on the main screen thinking he'd have easy access to any pictures I or my sister fancied emailing to his @Live.com account. Howver this proved not to be the case, hence the title of this thread.
Two problems.
How on earth can I get this phone / app to show HTML email inline images so that the likes of Tassimo and Shell who regularly send such emails can be read correctly?
and even with non-html emails, I need the app to auto load picture attachments within email?
What solutions have you found, is there an alternative app capable of handling @Live.com accounts?
Anyone?
Well, there is an option in 8.1 to always download full messages and Internet images, in settings for the email account.
Hopefully 8.1 will be officially released soon
