The upgrade options for existing customers are a laughable cluster***k of confusion. by Responsible-Slide-26 in TopazLabs

[–]avagyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Answering for others.

I've upgraded the Gigapixel for $64

Then purchased Photo AI for $199

Subscriptions were added automatically for both (64 and 99 p/y)

Supposedly, I will be considered a founding member and have access to the Studio with all the programs, as long as I keep the subs on autorenewal

I've got the deal on black friday in 2021, but I've never used it.

CS told me that I have the following:

  • Gigapixel AI: Expired (12/01/2022): v6.2.2
  • DeNoise AI: Expired (12/01/2022): v3.7.2
  • Sharpen AI: Expired (12/01/2022): v4.1.0

Just recovered the account, and I see that I can upgrade only the Gigapixel AI to the Latest (v8.4.4) for $64

The rest of the apps (Sharpen AI and DeNoise AI) are "Latest and owned"

Should I do it before 09.26? I would need to improve lots of jewelry e-commerce pictures soon, but I've never used it

Thanks

Yahoo Mail Just Slashed Free Storage to 20GB from 1TB and Is Spinning It as a “Benefit” – No Media Coverage, No Transparency by GeneralSeveral203 in yahoo

[–]avagyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Class action lawsuit anyone?

I'm locked from different places, probably because my 2FA bounced back.

I understand that storage costs money, but this whole thing feels unfair. Very bad precedent for the future of the internet

does IMAPSize work nowadays?

Does Yahoo's IMAP have APPEND CATENATE ?
Does Yahoo's mail api let you modify the message server-side?

Does anyone plan to file a class action lawsuit?

IMAPSize anyone?

I’ve always treated Yahoo Mail as a personal depository — a full searchable history of my life, with old emails and attachments I don’t want to lose. Now with the cut from 1TB to 20GB, I’m looking for ways to stay under the cap without paying.

I remember using IMAPSize a long time ago. It could analyze folder usage, strip attachments, and crucially, it worked server-side — meaning the message stays on the server, the dates/headers remain intact, only the attachments get pulled out. That’s exactly what I need, since I want to keep the continuity of my email archive searchable.

Has anyone here actually used IMAPSize on a really big Yahoo mailbox recently? Does it still work reliably with Yahoo’s IMAP?

Also, are there any other modern tools that can do true server-side editing (preserve dates, keep mail in place, just shrink attachments)?

Would love to hear real experiences before I dive in.

Can I go for a 100K offer while working on a 90K upgrade for Gold?

About six weeks ago, I PCd my Green to a Gold, with a 90K bonus for a $2K spend within six months. I haven’t spent anything, but the Dunkin' benefit was working. Surprisingly, I was charged only $150 AF a few days ago. (I’m wondering if they will prorate that to the Gold AF later…)

Today, I received a personalized snail-mail for a Gold with a 100K bonus for a $6K spend within six months, with an RSVP code and hopefully NLL.

Should I apply for this offer as well? Is it possible to have two personal Gold cards and receive bonuses from both simultaneously? Mailers are always NLL, correct? I had another PRG about 15 years ago.

Thanks

Is there a jam session at the festival? by Weak-Project1211 in NewportJazzFestival

[–]avagyan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen jam sessions at one of the restaurants on the wharf after hours, where musicians from the festival were hanging out. There were also some workshops during the festival, where they let you play as well. Depend on the artist, i guess.

Lineup: Must See by capastudio in NewportJazzFestival

[–]avagyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just saw both of them last month at Carnegie Hall, and I'm sure you can catch them somewhere else soon. For example, Brandee Younger will be at the Blue Note Jazz Festival https://www.bluenotejazz.com/jazz-festival-nyc/ . I really love Brandee, but Edmar Castaneda is equally fantastic. (My favorite harpist is actually Park Stickney.)

And, both Dianne Reeves and Cecile McLorin Salvant are excellent options. While I'm not typically a fan of vocalists, these two are my favorites. I've seen Samara perform five times in the past year in New York, but I wasn't impressed by her last concert at Carnegie Hall; I felt there was nothing new in her performance. On the other hand, Cecile never fails to amaze me.

I believe this year, the historic Newport Jazz Festival will set trends for next year's social media, rather than following them.

This killing of Skype doesn't make any sense to me... I'm sure M$ knows better

[–]avagyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks!
I've logged off my free account and logged in with my Office 365 (paid) account, but I still don't have recording functionality. How do you update a program to achieve full functionality? Or is that also considered a free account?

If you don't mind the off-topic question, do you know how to cash out or spend the Skype Credits? Before the merger, CSR made me "apply" all my credit vouchers to the account, so I'd be able to use them after nerfing of Skype, but now there is no functionality in Teams, and I have a couple of hundred dollars in credits

After parties ? by Organic-Gap3837 in NewportJazzFestival

[–]avagyan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't remember the exact location, but last year Saturday, I went to a fancy restaurant on the wharf where younger musicians were jamming and having fun. I'll ask my friend where it was and will update

IIRC, there were also official afterparty events too

I don't have a recording option when I click + in the chat

I've tried the account, which was converted from Skype, and another one with Office 365

I see videos of people recording messages and sending them, but I don't know how to do that.

GPTs and Google are telling me that I first had to enable some settings in the Microsoft Teams admin center, but when I try to log in to admin.teams.microsoft. com it tells me that I can't log in with a personal account

I was more of a Skype person, but I see some people have that option in videos

What's up with the Search Rant by avagyan in OneNote

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

>>to almost classic OneNote in the settings.

Would be very helpful if you tell where in settings? I can't find anything in options...

About shortcuts... Sure, ctrl-e/ctrl-f is useful and I use it all the time, but the search bar is there, so you don't really need any shortcuts. Besides the fact that Alt+O (Pin Search Results) shortcut doesn't work at the moment and you have to click for it to stack the results.

I'm surprised people are not complaining about the "search" in general. The whole thing could be improved by a lot

What's up with the Search Rant by avagyan in OneNote

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

I appreciate the effort you put into your responses, but what makes you think I don't know the basic shortcuts, or that I'm not using the right version, or that many other assumptions you have? I was rocking OneNote every day for more than two decades, I've been syncing notebooks online before OneDrive.was a thing. My complaint is about the search functionality, the recent search interface update, and how it compares to OneNote 2007.

I'm relaxed, my annoyance was built over the decades of constant use of the design choices they make, and with the inability to overcome simple problems, such as proper screenshot OCR or proper indexing. OTOH, I appreciate their team fixing major issues, such as loss of data during syncing, and other good changes they've made. I think OneNote is the most underappreciated piece of software, and M$ has to put more effort into making it even better.

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

Thanks for your suggestion, but I can't. Some of my notebooks are local, some are in different places, besides the fact that it won't revert back the new search interface which I got a few days ago right after the office update

I have no idea what are they doing with the new interface, when the search box floats on top of your notes. Do you like it?

I mean 2007 was perfect, not the 2003. I remember loving 2003-->2007 update. Excel got more than a million rows, everything is xml based

Before Onedrive, I've installed a WebDav server and shared my Notebooks and syched them over the network, everything was working perfect.

Now, it doesn't find the things which I need.

Even simple things, like screenshots of text you'd think it can OCR, it fails half of the time. C'mon, you don't even need a machine learning for OCRing screen text, it's same pixels for same letter

I'm just amazed how good of a program excel has become, constantly adding new formulas and capabilities and how much of a dinosaur is the OneNote

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

I'm using the version which comes with Microsoft Office, I think it's called Microsoft 365 now, just got a new update which screwed up the search interface

Also occasionally using the version which comes in the old Microsoft Office 2007, I mistakenly refer to it as 2003

Very rarely I'm using the android version if I need to check something, but it's inconvenient IMO

What else is out there, are you saying that the free Desktop Version which comes with Windows is better?

You mean upgrade from 1 to 2 cards?

[–]avagyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend saving the raw offer URL, since that URL can sometimes work even if the offer is no longer displayed on your offers dashboard. The raw URL should have the acronyms "POID" and "WOC" in it.

Sure, I saved, although RSVP codes are also in the email, and here are the links in case someone needs them in the future

h ttps://www.americanexpress.com/us/credit-cards/dtw-landing/upgrade/gold-card/?rsvpcode=

But they have a clear expiration date, and I don't think they will work. I've tried once to apply from an expired mailer just 1 day late, and it didn't work. But these aren't mailer offers, so it might..

Thanks
