Incident still going, affected clients from yesterday still can't access email. EAC just times out
Current status: Our telemetry data is indicating connection time outs within the Exchange authentication infrastructure, resulting in impact to the service. We're looking into the Domain Controller logs to understand the cause and remediate impact.
I manage quite a few different subs for various clients. It seems to only show the incident if you're affected, or could potentially be affected. It is only affecting a small number of clients for us.
Today i've seen some with no incident showing, and then some showing the incident yet their email is working fine.
They're saying it's down to a problem with a domain controller, but no update since 12:57
Yes you can bluetooth to a single speaker and have it "Caskeid" to the others, but you need the Pure app to manage the multi-room aspect and enable/disable speakers, change audio settings etc. Also i used the built in digital radio app.
My current solution is have all speakers enabled for Caskeid and it play in every room in the house and then unplug from the mains the ones i don't want on. Pretty low-tech but saves me having to acquire (and keep charged!) an Android device
Here i was thinking buying from a "proper" company in the UK would mean better support than the cheaper ones on amazon from the far east.
Let's hope Pure pull their fingers out and provide a replacement app soon, and it's not total abandonware
Sync everything to your google account/cloud services then? hardly rocket science, that's what "the cloud" is there for. I left my phone in a taxi a weeks ago, new one on insurance arrived, set my google account and sync apps up...hey presto everything is back and i have a nice new phone (Without a big dent in the top...which was an added bonus)
RE: Networks limiting personal hot-spot usage -
I got my galaxy nexus from the O2 shop, but they aren't branded anyway. My HTC desire was heavily O2 branded with all the O2 guff installed, and it still allowed me to use the personal hotspot (Android 2.2/2,3 i seem to recall). O2 just limit data usage nowadays anyway, "unlimited" no longer exists so you can't cane it 24/7 like you could previously. Just pick a bolt on that suits you (Mine is 1GB/month i seem to recall. I was on the 3GB one but now i work from home i don't use it anywhere near as much as i did)
Once you're on a bolt-on you can hammer it as much as you like, then once you hit the limit they throttle your speeds until your next billing period starts. Unless you're watching netflix over mobile data connection it shouldnt ever be a problem.
.....is the lack of an SD card in "Google Controlled" hardware devices (i.e. Nexus range) due to the fact they don't want to supply a device that utilises FAT storage?
With the Apple/Samsung row it probably makes sense to be cautious when it comes to using other companies technology to avoid further patent battles.
I'm assuming it'll pick up upnp sharing, so anything my server chucks out through Samsung Allshare should be available (When i'm at home anyway) - fingers crossed. If not, there's probably "an app for that" *cringe*
If it doesn't, i see no point in buying one. You can get a network ready BluRay player that does all that for about £150. Or god forbid....and apple tv (and put linux on it..obv)
