Need smart computer person!!

You might want to start thinking of using that laptop as your new weather station computer only. That's what I've done with a handicapped laptop I have.

I have a cheap desktop I had set up for the weather station, but still having issues. I bought the software you have. It will not see the davis system. The ip address assigned is a exterior one, public ip, no matter what I do it will not load the data. That is on my list to mess with also...........sometime.

Public IP:
73.200.xxx.xx

If it won't see the Davis console, it's usually looking at the wrong usb port#.
Snowstorms are usually a good time to mess with computers.

for sure! I have a large list of things to mess with when it is cold outside and snowing,.............if we get snow this year.

I have a problem uploading images from my phone!
With my old phone, I'd just connected the cable to the pc, and a pop up window would open so I could start the upload....with this phone nothing happens when I connect it to the pc!
I tried to look for settings I can't find anything to help pc see the phone....anyone has knowledge on this?

I just send my photos to google .......dl the ones that I want or copy paste. As long as the lappy is working...............lol

https://photos.google.com/

To get the files from my phone I have to open the folder under this pc, then the phone name, then the dcim folder.

The galaxy 8 should work easily, I would think.


Did you try this?

I tried! When I do step 1, I hear the sound of connection, but no window opens on either phone, nor pc

I'm trying to figure out if the problem is withing the phone , or the pc

Got to love technology!

I am being driven insane by pop up apps, they pop up on my phone and want to be installed. Citibank is constantly trying to get me to install them. Games, etc. I have, now, three different security systems installed, malwares etc on the phone, no virus found. No malware.
Can not get those pita pop ups to stop and they play a loud obnoxious sound when they do pop up.

Have all done everything I can find on the net that says how to stop ads, have not found a way to stop pop up apps!

Back to your problem.............that I have no clue. Mine just shows up. Have you tried the old fashion reboot of the phone, while plugged in to the pc? I do fix some phone issues with a shut down restart.

I just did....no luck!
Would you say it is a pc problem, or should I talk to Sprint where I got the phone?
