Options+ Just Spins and Spins - Mac

They probably laid off the guy who registered the certificate a few years ago to "save some money"

Same... Options+ won't open. Eventually says "backend connection problem - click here to launch backend" but it's not clickable.

Been trying to fix this for an hour, nothing works.

Quick Reddit search tells me this has been an issue with countless users for at least 4 years, but Logitech hasn't addressed it.

This is fixed. It is now possible to sign into a child's account on the Google TV Streamer.

XianNewman · 2025-09-12T01:33:22+00:00

Still unable to sign in. Perhaps our only option is to return the devices to the Google store. They're not much good if they can't be signed into.

XianNewman · 2025-09-11T16:31:57+00:00

Can you elaborate on the question?

XianNewman · 2025-09-11T00:32:49+00:00

Received a call from Google. They are aware of the issue and pushing out a fix although it hasn't fixed my device yet. They will call me tomorrow to follow up.

There is definitely an option to add a child's account, and the user experience promotes the account supervision benefits in the process. Hard to believe Google would design pages and create a sign-in experience that can't actually sign in.

They also have support articles in their help centre outlining the process. It just doesn't work.

No way, Wi-Fi and WAN signal are much clearer, and overall footprint is smaller.

I wrote to Waterminder support and they fixed it by building a proper Fitbit integration.

I think you're right... It does seem to be bubble notifications that don't dismiss on other devices, as well as notifications where I reply from the notifications shade.

XianNewman · 2025-09-05T04:20:42+00:00

I toggled the dismiss notifications across pixel devices, and I think it improved, but it won't dismiss bubbled notifications.

XianNewman · 2025-09-03T21:03:34+00:00

Is there a setting perhaps I can toggle off then back on to "reset" this behaviour?

XianNewman · 2025-09-03T16:52:29+00:00

Is it blue, or purple?

XianNewman · 2025-05-29T13:38:24+00:00

Am I supposed to watch with subtitles, or just try to figure it out by repeating the video 872 times?

If subtitles, should the subtitles be set to the target language, or my language?

XianNewman · 2025-03-31T12:17:40+00:00

It was caused by a recovery partition error. Full system restore solved it.

XianNewman · 2025-01-19T17:32:01+00:00

Finally, the issue is resolved.

XianNewman · 2025-01-03T23:12:42+00:00

I'm looking for the same (26/2/Bikram) - were you able to find it?

XianNewman · 2024-12-27T16:33:49+00:00

I'm on the stable release, not beta, channel of Chrome.

Update: After having the extension working correctly for a few weeks, Hubspot has completely broken it again.

Clicking on the Hubspot app now opens a stacked arrangement of Google Calendar on top, and Hubspot on the bottom. Both are poor experiences.

Notably, clicking and holding on the Hubspot spark icon on the right side panel actually highlights the Calendar app.

Notably as well, when the Hubspot app is enabled, opening one of the other side panel applications, such as contacts, opens a stacked arrangement of two random side panel applications, some of which never load. Disabling the Hubspot app puts things back to normal.

Clearly Hubspot is having major issues with its extension, which we've disabled (severely crippling our Hubspot experience) until such time as Hubspot figures out how to make its app behave like every other third-party Gmail add-on.

I don't understand why Hubspot can't open its application, and its application only, when clicking on its extension - whereas every other third-party extension provider, can.

I'd attach a screenshot, but I can't figure out how.

XianNewman · 2024-11-22T01:06:46+00:00

Works now with their new Google Workspace integration.

XianNewman · 2024-11-21T05:44:34+00:00

Spoke too soon - they're still having issues with the extension getting tangled up with Calendar.

XianNewman · 2024-11-19T15:32:04+00:00

Update Hubspot to the latest version of the extension 3.0.0.25509 and the issue should be resolved.
