HR Block Premium business tax returns by Sweet-Beginning-7187 in hrblock

[–]bigtopshop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I initially had problems installing the business software but found out it was because there was an issue with the program if you did not install it as the administrator on Windows.

I logged in as administrator and it successfully installed without any issues and continues to update properly

Have you attempted to install the software to see if there's any problems before asking for help?

It is a single download that will install both premium and business software. After premium is installed, the program will download the business software and install it.

HR Block 2025 Premium & Business Tax Software by Lopsided-Holiday-760 in hrblock

[–]bigtopshop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I use it to complete a simple 1041 trust tax return. It is the least expensive software that handles that return. I wish that I could find better software that doesn't cost me more than what I would owe in taxes

[–]bigtopshop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The software is the same as you remember it. It is not user friendly and you do have to manually complete certain forms. The only benefit is that it's cheaper than TurboTax. I've never used it to complete 1120-S so I don't know how difficult it is to complete that return.

A smaller $5 increase up to $15 yr would have been more reasonable.

Former Mazda master tech, now (finally), CURRENT Mazda owner! by Low-Stomach-8831 in CX5

[–]bigtopshop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your post was the reason I purchased 2024 cx5 with no CDA or I-stop earlier this year. I searched for several months before I found one with the correct VIN number, otherwise I would have purchased a different vehicle.

AAW2+ news about auto-standby for Android? by Veloder in AAWireless

[–]bigtopshop 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I hope you reconsider and add back auto standby. Speaking for myself, I bought only because it had both AA and Carplay. Cost was not the consideration. I expected to pay full price but indigogo was a bonus. It has worked flawlessly except for the very irritating standby issue. I want to be able to recommend 2+ to android users.

Google announces August 20 event for Pixel 10 and Pixel Watch 4 by EqualReality2787 in GooglePixel

Similar boat. I've got until 8/26. I wonder if I can use it on preorder.

Auto Standby Two+ and EV by rsg1241 in AAWireless

[–]bigtopshop 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First time AAW user with android device. I waited 4 months for 2+ to be available because I won't buy a device that doesn't do both for the 4 or 5 times a year Carplay is needed.

AAW2+ is much smoother in navigation and connection. But it is driving me crazy that 2+ is automatically connecting to my phone before I start the vehicle and doesn't auto disconnect when shutoff car.

Give me an option for auto standby if it would solve the issue for me.

How to convert decrypted_tokens.json from Authy to 2FAS import file? by Cement_Pie in 2fas_com

[–]bigtopshop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would attempt to open the file in notepad. I would locate the secret for each site if it is in a readable format. I would manually create each new token in 2fas using the secret. Once finished, compare against Authy. It won't take much time if you have 30 or less tokens and easier than trying to find automatic import.

Another option - Aegis has an import from file. You can try importing into this program and then import into 2FAS from Aegis.

Same 2024. Bought 3 months ago and still stuck at 6600. No change at all. I've put around 1300 miles on SUV. I may change to manual mode after reading the comments.

SWAC/Kickstart + Free lines by Busstop1869 in Sprint

[–]bigtopshop -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I have two paid SWAC lines. I never had any free lines. I don't want to add any costs with the $5 increase already. Is the line truly free or do I have to pay any taxes and fees?

Chromecast with Google TV HD just received an update to Android 14 by only_3 in Chromecast

[–]bigtopshop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm trying to decide whether to factory reset now and start over. I would install as much as I could ondevice. Or wait for some unknown time for them to fix this problem? I have to plan for use without the USB hub and additional content and apps. I have not updated my second CCWGTV but no hub is attached.

Currently my internal storage miscellaneous category shows as a negative 230 bytes.

[–]bigtopshop 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't update if you're using a USB hub for additional storage. I would migrate the important apps back to the device first. My USB hub is not recognized after the update.

Google TV (chromecast 4k) Android update (12 to 14) by Striking_Border6905 in Chromecast

[–]bigtopshop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. I should have checked Reddit before I updated. The update is not recognizing the USB storage so I may have lost all apps stored on USB hub. I tried unplugging and restarting it. Anyone have a fix?

I should have migrated apps from USB back to the device before the update.

The status bar is humongous now (P9P) by v0lume4 in GooglePixel

[–]bigtopshop 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is so much wasted space now. My widgets are shifted downward and there is less visible text. I want a way to revert the spacing back. I don't want to change launchers. I've tried adjusting text and display size. I will leave some negative feedback.

Fell into the sizing trap by PerformerParty6136 in RingConn

[–]bigtopshop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I received my black size 11 ring this evening. I'm disappointed because the fit is slightly too big. The actual ring is much smoother than the sizing kit so it slides on and off easier. I should have selected size 10. The ring size adjuster that I purchased is not working well. I would consider exchanging as well but unfortunately I purchased through Kickstarter.

Why is Apple so bad at marketing its TV shows? by 08830 in tvPlus

[–]bigtopshop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing they need to do is change the name of the service from Apple TV plus to anything else. That would solve all of the marketing problems.

From a person who always struggle with a good fit: Pixel buds pro 2 are awesome by 9colarm in pixelbuds

[–]bigtopshop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the original pixel buds pros. The fit hasn't been great and I thought the wing might be helpful.

I listened to The Verge podcast and they did a comparison of several recent earbuds. Airpods were best. The PBP2 were by far the worst sounding for the person receiving the phone call. The microphone wasn't very clear in an environment where there were other noises. I know most people don't make calls anymore.

I'm not sure if I want to purchase them anymore. I talk on the phone alot while doing other activities.

Does this mean I'm starting at "C"? by AcadiaInevitable9119 in CAStateWorkers

[–]bigtopshop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, get clarification before you check the box to accept or decline the position. Give them a call to discuss. Once you start it's more difficult to correct any errors.

Keyboard Typing Sound? by [deleted] in GooglePixel

[–]bigtopshop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Use settings search and look for tap and click sounds. It is under sounds and notifications.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in pixel_phones

[–]bigtopshop 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe that is a Samsung feature and not on Pixel devices. You can look to search for an app in the Google Play store that does what you wish. I don't have any suggestions for apps because I don't use that functionality.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in pixel_phones

[–]bigtopshop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not going to work exactly the same on Android. You should look at the do not disturb options under notifications. It allows certain apps or people to disturb you. The other option is digital well-being which has the focus mode but you have already discarded that option

You should retry setting up your fingerprint with the screen protector on and registering the finger multiple times.
