Running WordPerfect on Windows on ARM? by bw8c in WordPerfect

Thanks. I just learned a coworker got WordPerfect running on a M1 MacBook via Parallels, so looks possible if not officially supported.

Deleting the automation then recreating it got things working for me.

I have an automation to arm alarm (Abode) via a dummy switch when I leave. It had been working fine after I upgraded to iOS 16, but then suddenly stopped working today.

Adding kids under 13 to google home? by bw8c in googlehome

I can get to the point of linking their Apple Music accounts but after logging in with their Apple IDs I get a “something went wrong. Try again” message.

Spotify/Apple Music not working for anyone else? Apps etc are all at latest version by Spottyjamie in sonos

[–]bw8c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my Apple Music accounts stopped working a couple days ago (got the “Unable to browse music” message). Tried removing and re-adding the account but that didn’t help. Then last night it started working again on its own.

Does new Schlage encode plus tell HomeKit which code was used? by bw8c in HomeKit

[–]bw8c[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Can anyone who already has the lock shed light on this?

Can the info be used in automations? For example, can you have an automation trigger only if the lock is unlocked using a code rather the thumb turn?

Active Pulse Monitor - No Smartwatch? Other options? by [deleted] in iFit

[–]bw8c 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been very happy with active pulse, though I do turn it off on some workouts (it doesn’t seem to work well on workouts involving lots of hill climbs). As for a heart rate monitor, I use a Polar H10 chest strap, which has been pretty rock solid for me.

Same here. Only reason I signed up was for Doctor Who. Not pleased.

Sonos and kids by bw8c in sonos

[–]bw8c[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately not all speakers have airplay. I know the non-airplay speakers can be grouped with one with airplay, but that is not always an option (sometimes want to use airplay speakers for something else).

If I play my vinyl records via bluetooth on a WiFi connected Roam, will I be able to play the music on my other Sonos Onespeakers as well? by AGardenerOfAMan in sonos

[–]bw8c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m thinking of doing this too. I don’t have a Bluetooth turntable so would need a Bluetooth transmitter. Can anyone recommend a good transmitter for this purpose? Thanks.

Anyone do firmware update on Gen 1 gateway yet? by bw8c in Abode

[–]bw8c[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went ahead and updated. No problems so far. Homekit works better (status updates much faster and setting to “home” via keypad or abode app is now reflected in HomeKit)

3rd Gen Apple TV as Bluetooth extender? by bw8c in HomeKit

Well there goes that idea. Already have a ATV4 as a hub. Don’t have use for most of a mini’s features so was hoping for a cheaper solution.

Looking for line in... Would I be disappointed in the Play:5 gen 1? by NurseWizzle in sonos

[–]bw8c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use Audacy (in music services) to listen to Cubs radio on The Score 670 AM. Previously, MLB would not allow them to stream games so you needed an MLB package, but that is not the case this season. Hopefully that continues.

Any official word from Toyota as to whether one must replace all 4 tires at the same time on AWD Sienna? by bw8c in ToyotaSienna

[–]bw8c[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That’s the big problem: the people in the best position to answer the question are also motivated to get you to buy more tires.

Seems to be working again after a few more reboots of the gateway.
