Is Microsoft Edge included in Windows Server 2016, as in Windows 10? GeoffreyT2000 (talk) 02:29, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
How to make a six-button Sega Genesis controller compatible with laptop USB to enable playing on Mortal Kombat emulators and the like? Thanks. --212.180.235.46 (talk) 10:08, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
I'd like to finally make the jump to using my Google account, rather than my ancient ISP email. I have transferred my contacts by hand, and used EM Client to drag and drop my old emails, but I'm still struggling with my calendar. EMclient lets me export my old calendar in ICS format, but it's too big at 3.5MB to be uploaded directly thru my Google calendar settings page (their FAQ mentions a 1MB limit).
I tried exporting individual events to a folder, then dragging and dropping them into my Google calendar in EMclient, which appeared to work for all but 10 events, but only a few are visible on Google Calendar in my browser. I can't see a way of forcing EMclient to fully synchronise the calendar. Its own log shows no errors when I sync either my Google or my ISP accounts.
Any suggestions please for a way to make Google swallow all my events, without randomly (and silently) deciding to leave anything out? Can I split the exported ICS calendar into three or four bits small enough to be imported thru a web browser? --163.1.153.58 (talk) 12:49, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
I googled a minute ago and found that it is a known problem but I could not figure out how to fix it. --AboutFace 22 (talk) 16:55, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
I hope I will describe the problem correctly. My wife has one email client and I have a different one. She must use hers because it is given to her by her prior employer. I've historically used mine and very happy with it. We both have HP Pavilion with Windows 10 on them. Now, if somebody sends me an email with a URL link in the text, e.g. "http://www....." this link will be highlighted if the cursor hovers over it, typically blue color and when I click on the link it will connect me to some Internet page.
In her browser the situation is different. The URL's are displayed but never highlighted. It is impossible to click on them, so in order to open that Internet page she has to highlight the link manually, copy it with Cntr+C, move the cursor to an address window somewhere, perhaps in a different window and paste it there with Cntr+V. It is a tedious procedure.
I wonder if it is a known problem and can be corrected by some parameter change? Thanks --AboutFace 22 (talk) 16:37, 30 April 2017 (UTC)
Could be, but how to change it? Is it in the server or the client? --AboutFace 22 (talk) 01:02, 1 May 2017 (UTC)
