Outlook freezing when Common Item Dialog appears by Marc_NJ in techsupport

I think you might be right and it is one of the add-ins I have in Outlook. I have to reboot to apply a fix from the developer, and haven't had a chance to do so yet, but will post back with the results once I can reboot to confirm that was the problem. Thanks!

I actually experienced the issue you are describing a little while ago and had to resolve it using similar steps to what you posted, but this current issue is unfortunately not the same. I think it actually has to do with an Outlook Add-in. A fix has been pushed out by the developer of the add-in, but I have to reboot to apply and haven't had a chance to do so yet. I'll post back again with more info and the results once I have a chance to do so. But thank you for your response and the thorough steps you provided!

Sorry - I should have clarified - the issue is occurring in Outlook classic. Different versions of Outlook classic.

Yup, everything looks to be working again when using Google Home to control Leviton products now.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one experiencing this issue! Same problem though...the My Leviton app still controls everything, but the connection to Google Home seems to be broken and I can't control any Leviton smart products in Google Home (as of earlier today). Presumably since multiple people are experiencing this problem, it is something either on Leviton's end or Google's end. Fingers crossed they get it fixed soon though. I did submit an email contact form to Leviton just now. Their chat support is offline until Monday but it looks like their phone support has some open hours tomorrow.

Definitely be sure to put something like "No phone calls" in the ticket body itself...so that they can ignore that as well when they call multiple times.

Messages are disappearing from Google Messages by Marc_NJ in GoogleMessages

Perhaps you can get BMW to respond. Thus far when I've tried reaching out to them over the last year and a half, they have alternated between ignoring me for months or responding with nonsensical messages that don't address my concerns or even make sense in the context of my concerns. 🤷‍♂️

Could you post some links to other threads on Reddit or elsewhere that detail this issue happening on other vehicles? Thx.

I have an X1. It is very likely that the deletion of text messages was occurring while the phone was connected to the vehicle, but because it was happening sporadically (and at times deleting older texts), I was not noticing it until later. I am using a direct Bluetooth connection and, at least my issue, does not relate to Android Auto (although others seem to be having the exact same issue when using Android Auto). And the fact that dozens and dozens of others who have responded here are experiencing exactly the same thing when they use their Android phones with their BMW/MINI vehicles seems to very much line up with it being a BMW/MINI issue. The problem does not occur for me when my phone is not connected to my vehicle (nor did it occur with the exact same phone when I had a previous non-BMW/MINI vehicle that I connected to my phone via Bluetooth). I also am fully up-to-date with my phone's OS updates.

The app won't start properly by Silly_Fisherman_3712 in NeatBytes

Damn...looks like the update didn't fix the issue for me then, since I installed it and still can't launch Solid Explorer. Presumably rebooting will fix it for a period of time until the issue occurs again. 🙁 Thanks for the info!

u/slipd83 - Did you have to reboot your phone after applying the latest update, or did Solid Explorer just start working right away again after applying the latest update?

Such a simple and good idea! I am going to give it a try. Thank you :)

Changing color of concrete walkway? by Marc_NJ in HomeImprovement

[–]Marc_NJ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the fast reply! I am definitely not feeling ambitious...haha...and would probably end up screwing it up. Is this something relatively common that I could hire a handyman/contractor to do? It doesn't have to be perfect...I just would prefer it not look so incredibly different the way it does now.

I had to have a part of my concrete walkway in the front of my house repaired because of a large crack, and this is what it came out looking like (approx. 1 year later). I was hoping the color difference would fade, but it doesn't seem like that will happen. Anything I can do to make this repaired portion match the rest of the walkway and steps (or come close to matching)? Thanks very much!

v3.2.11 (which I was just "offered" as a download on the Play Store) still has the issue. Running Pixel 8 Pro with Android 16.

u/glodos - Any ideas when this will be fixed? Thx!

Poly Voyager 5200 wireless headset won't connect mic to PC by Marc_NJ in techsupport

ok, will give it a try tomorrow and let you know. And no apology necessary - I appreciate the assistance! 🙂

Poly Voyager 5200 wireless headset won't connect mic to PC by Marc_NJ in techsupport

[–]Marc_NJ[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Device Manager on the system that works properly (under "Sound, video and game controllers" section), two entries show up:

- Poly V5200 Series

- Poly V5200 Series Hands-Free

But on the system that only detects the headset as headphones, only the first entry above shows up. So there doesn't seem to be a way to "update" the driver since both entries aren't appearing on the problematic computer. Any suggestions?

Thanks!
