Too.  Many.  Options. Empty
PostSubject: Too. Many. Options.   Too.  Many.  Options. EmptyTue Nov 29, 2016 5:19 pm

My computer system continues to get more complicated.  I just tried to print a document from my iPad, using AirPrint, Apple's wireless printing method.  The printer was not seen as an option until I rebooted the printer.

My TV has the option to mirror other screens, such as my phone or iPad.  I can't seem to get it to work (although I did a year ago).  It would be nice to be able to play videos on the big screen.

I have lists, like shopping lists, on my phone.  Supposedly Apple devices will share data such as this automagically, so if I add something to a list on one device all the others update.  This hasn't been working lately either.  Not sure why (Contacts list I've noticed is shared across devices automatically).

I can access multiple services multiple ways across multiple devices: Pandora, YouTube, Hulu, Netflix, etc.  Each access method has subtly different GUIs and subtly different benefits.  Hard to know which one to use sometimes.  Hard to remember all the passwords!

There's a possibility my new Blu-ray player will play SACD discs.  I can't be sure because I don't have any.

I need to reprogram all my universal remotes for the new Sony Blu-ray.  

I need to make sure all my software is up to date.

Wayyyy too many complications.

You have a tough life. Poor baby.

I have a found a system that works for me: I use my telephone for making telephone calls. I use my computer for computer-related activities. I use my Blu Ray player for playing DVDs. I use my wife's iPad for playing Angry Birds. No problem.
