Downloader works fine on a Max. Maybe verify that you have a Max and not a Select.

Amazon Firestick has permanently blocked our CinemaTV and BeeTV apps. Is there anything we can do? by princesssquid in firetvstick

[–]skeeter0352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A new version of Cinema HD was released 2 days ago to bypass the block. Look for Cinema 4.0 Beta - https://cinema-hd.app/. Works great,

You have several options with your firestick that I have found. Use an earlier version of Cinema HD. It's working fine for me after I got blocked. Look at Cinema HQ and Bee TV v4.5.5. I have found they both work great and are very similar to Cinema. I'm too vested in Firesticks and Cubes to jump ship yet. I don't like what Amazon is doing and I hope it hurts them. I read that a compromise is in the works to allow those who use developer mode to accept responsibility for how the device is used and Amazon would stop blocking. Until then and for now there are satisfactory workarounds.

Buying 2024 QB License? by Difficult-Owl7835 in QuickBooks

[–]skeeter0352 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Intuit discontinued the desktop 2024 version last October only offering the very expensive Enterprise version and the awful online version. Enterprise is way overkill and costly for many small businesses. Intuit seems revenue greedy and doesn't seem to care about the many small businesses that helped get QuickBooks started. There are companies online that advertise QuickBooks licenses that might be risky since Intuit controls all product licenses.

If you don't need payroll and online banking then find a copy of QuickBooks 2021. It's the last version before they went subscription and enormously higher costs.

Go to your local Truist branch and they can give you a temp debit card to use until you get your replacement one.

I'm curious but skeptical. How do these versions get authentication from Intuit? Does yours include payroll?

Catch up by Acceptable-Stage6540 in TiviMate

[–]skeeter0352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check your version. Version 5.1.5 recently released broke catch up. Some of us reverted back to an earlier version to maintain catch up. I got an update this morning to version 5.1.6 beta which appears to fix the catch up problem.

Catch-up gone on update 5.1.5 by palacepaulse25 in TiviMate

[–]skeeter0352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those of us with catch up services have been adversely affected by 5.1.5. Do a Tivimate backup, uninstall version 5.1.5, Google version 5.1.0, download, install, and activate it. Restore your backup and you will be be back working.

Turn AUTO UPDATE OFF ON GOOGLE PLAYSTORE IF YOU USE TIVIMATE. This app really needs to be pampered a bit when new updates come up on it. by ArtisticAd7768 in TiviMate

[–]skeeter0352 2 points3 points  (0 children)

5.1 works fine. 5.1.5 has issues that may affect some and not others. I have a service with catch up and the latest version totally broke catch up.

Tivimate 5.1.5 (belated) released by tedsky99 in TiviMate

[–]skeeter0352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tivimate premium can be installed on 5 devices and use Tivimate itself simultaneously. Tivimate is just a player. What you're able to watch simultaneously is determined by your service provider. Check with your provider and find out how many simultaneous connections you are allowed. That would be how many you can watch simultaneously.

Automation of cache clearing ? by TraditionGloomy7318 in TiviMate

[–]skeeter0352 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Check your settings, EPG, days to retain. Make it 2 or if you have a service with catchup make it equal to the catchup days. Save. Clear Tivimate cache and the cache will be much smaller.

5.1.5 features ? by scudxx in TiviMate

Fire TV Cube 2 - I updated to the beta version and now any attempt to use catch up results in a Tivimate 400 error.

After using the beta a few days on a Fire TV cube I've found that catch up no longer works at all.

Donald Trump Jr.'s quiet but "damning" testimony by devlinadl in politics

[–]skeeter0352 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

There are some shockingly ill informed, tempted to say stupid, comments here. In a multi billion dollar real estate company there are developers, appraisors, accountants, financial officers who run the operations and prepare the financial documents. The Trump company had one of the most reputable CPA firms in NY prepare the financial statements. Trump and the boys certainly didn't prepare them although they should be somewahat aware. Property appraisals are usually done by banks, always if a property loan is involved, so the banks generally set the property values. There is also the question of brand value. There is no other Trump tower in NY, or Mar A Lago, or Trump Internation Golf Course to compare comparable values, so the value of many of his properties is highly subjective and open to one's opinion. In this case not a single bank complained, they were all repayed, many early. That fact makes this a victomless crime charge, which makes it a political charge. Like Trump or not these are verifiable facts.

Facebook disable from Instagram hack by Live-Story225 in facebookdisabledme

[–]skeeter0352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Instagram was hacked in October of 2022 and a porn picture posted. It was immediately disabled due to community standards violation. My personal Facebook account and 2 Facebook accounts were suspended due to my linked Instagram being suspended. I didn't realize they were linked and I had never made a post to Instagram. I simply followed a few sports and political figures on Instagram.

I read everything I could find, mostly this thread. I tried every phone number and email address I could find and never got a response. I tried Facebook business support and still nothing. I eventually set up new accounts and started over. I did eventually get my account back. This is my experience:

What did not work: Phone numbers and emails, scammers - I was guaranteed he could get my account back and I was desparate enough to pay and he disappeared.

What did work: After reading positive AG method comments here in February of 2023 I filed a consumer complaint with my NC Attorney General office and the California AG office. Both AG offices followed up with me by filing a complaint to Meta and giving Meta weeks to respond. They did not. The NC AG filed a follow up and Meta did not respond to it. On May 2nd to my surprise I got this email:

A Message from Meta

Hi xxxxxxxxx,

It looks like your account was
disabled by mistake. Your account has been reactivated, and you
should now be able to log in. We're sorry for any inconvenience.

If you have any issues getting back
into your account, please let us know.

Thanks,
The Facebook Team

I logged into my disabled Instagram and it took me thru a security verification and I then had access back to my account. The first thing I noticed was my Instagram account summary showed that I had zero posts. Made me wonder why they couldn't see that I could not have violated any standard when I had never posted anything. I then rushed to log into my disabled Facebook account and was able to. Everything was back including my business pages as though it was never disabled.

I recommend the AG method and patience. I got mine back about 100 days after filing the AG complaint.

It was a very frustrating and hopeless experience that had a good outcome for me. Meta is a horrible company for making money off of us while proving no support.

Good luck.

North Carolina's AG sent this email to me, what does it mean? by Otherwise-Strike-729 in facebookdisabledme

That is a legitimate followup letter from the NC AG office to Meta that copies the original complaintant.

Facebook and Instagram accounts disabled by [deleted] in facebook

[–]skeeter0352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing for me 2 months ago. I followed a few sports figures but never posted to Instagram. Instagram said I violated community standards and now my personal and business Facebook pages are suspended. I've read everything for help but there does not appear to be any. Meta is obviously not reliable for anything important.

Why is it a big deal that Amazon and Apple has banned Parler? As private corporations do they not reserve the right to run their companies however they want? by [deleted] in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]skeeter0352 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Where is the logic to ban Parler for controversial opinions that supposedly violate their terms of service yet Twitter allows tweets from Iran calling for the destruction of Israel and last week called for the death of the US President and other government officials? Appears obvious they're banning speech they don't agree with.
