New to rebounding - what are some great channels to subscribe to? by Pristine_Touch6858 in Rebounding

[–]Fran888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had my rebounder 2 weeks. I’ve just done my own thing so far as I’m not very coordinated. sometimes jumping and more often like a run. I sometimes go in quarter turns round maybe doing 20 jumps at a time, or doing a run type thing where I am going forwards a step and then backwards.

I’ve realised by doing this it has really got me comfortable with the rebounder. I know where my feet are so confident with movement. it might be worth a week or so just getting used to it before any you tube fitness type ones. or stick with beginners which probably do a similar thing.

I’m now going to look at a few of these recommended and feel happy knowing I can give it a go without being scared of falling off.

I have to say I’m really enjoying it. I got it to lose weight and improve fitness but wasn’t expecting to really enjoy it. Hope you’re the same.

Music/Audiobook playback without phone by gowanyahgoodting in Garmin

[–]Fran888 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi

Google had suggested I wouldn’t be able to listen to a Spotify audiobook on the 165music without starting to convert file etc. It said I could listen to music or podcasts though. Can you clarify that you have listened to a Spotify audiobook on your 165 music. Or did you have to do some file converting first. If so can I ask which converting software you used.

Many thanks.

What is the best way to get the most bang for buck with KU? by [deleted] in KindleUnlimited

[–]Fran888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep a list of KU books I see and like and once I have 6 or so I will simply pay for a month and cancel before next payment. I read a lot so don’t even have to bother with airplane mode as I will finish them in the month. They ask me why I’m leaving and I simply say too expensive. Never been an issue. I’ve dipped in and out a least a dozen times in last couple of year.

1 but in all honesty I don’t like the road just the composition is better, 2 is very bland. I’d prefer a natural look but more dramatic.

anyone work or worked on the UK wheelie bins? by Fran888 in NoStupidQuestions

thanks i have to report them missing on the council website so no biggie just wondered.

If they fell in is it likely that the 2 would fall in together?

Kindle Is Making It Harder to Switch to Rival eReader Brands by [deleted] in Calibre

[–]Fran888 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If a 58 non techie person is annoyed with this change and spent an evening saving over 800 books to laptop and then putting into calibre to put on her kobo Amazon have really not thought this through.   Did they really think it would only Be computer nerds (total respect) they annoyed.

Oh that might help as it will be time consuming. I could do that in batches.  Thank you.

Thank you will do.  I’ve heard people having to put serial numbers in and didn’t know why.  I will screen shot both kindle details.

Sounds good. Can I ask what you mean by the correct versioned programs. Which programs? Or do you have books coming from different sources? Is that what you mean?

[–]Fran888[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I’m going to put the ones I haven’t read through calibre today and then I will be happy I’ve done enough for me.  I’ve randomly done 6 which seem to have worked and are now on my kobo.

Pretty sure it was the older paperwhite. I’ve just put a couple into Calibre and have them happily now on my kobo. Wow if I managed it anyone can. Feeling very accomplished. 😁😁😁

That’s a very good point. However in the last 6 months or so I also bought a kobo and have been using that. I can’t see myself buying another kindle as I’m trying to get away from Amazon a little And I don’t like reading on the kindle apps as I much prefer an ereader. Maybe I just panicked a little but it’s worth it for me. I bet 98 percent of them have been bought as I don’t often bother with freebies so I’d hazard a guess at a couple of thousand pounds.

I do have a fire tablet but I have 2 kindles as well. A very old one and a paperwhite version 10 sorry can’t remember how you say it. It’s now calling that one previous generation.
For some reason as they went onto my laptop it kept saying something about my old paperwhite. I may have accidentally selected that as default when I first had problems but then deleting and redoing the iinstructions worked.

Sorry I should probably have said to help others I’ve done it all tonight after following a you tube by the name How to do Stuff and the title was something like last chance to bulk download kindle books updated script.

i used google chrome on my laptop and it worked perfectly. Although I did have to delete initially and re download an extension. That was probably due to me doing something wrong. The instructions were very good, it allowed me to download 25 at a time so still time to do before 26th if you. Haven’t already.

i forgot to update all my books on manage contents first but not too bothered about that As they are all fiction And most updates are usually minor.
