What's an OS?

opus · 11-11-2015, 10:57 PM

operating system. For example, my iPhone is ios 9, while my Android tablet is 6.0.

mets82 · 11-11-2015, 11:09 PM

A900x.

Does that sound right? Only negative about having a tablet is I feel like an idiot because a lot of stuff about this goes over my head.

That's your model number, but my question isn't important. Tablets are awesome because I can make my inane comments here at 2 in the morning and not wake anyone up.

Are you on it now?

mets82 · 11-11-2015, 11:26 PM

Yes I am. Also, that's the reason I haven't posted since Friday. Got the tablet Friday. Didn't know u needed internet service. I took my modem and everything back when my computer broke. Anyway I have the internet via my phone provider. So, I had to wait until yesterday for the guy to come out and hook the internet up.

I have a problem. I can't watch any videos from daily motion.It says something to the effect "the video can't support this browser". I have no clue on what to do next. I can watch YouTube videos though. Now whatever I have to do to watch the daily motion videos,will it cost me any money?

Does your tablet have GooglePlay or some other type of app store? You could download the Dailymotion app and try to watch videos that way. There is also a YouTube app that you might like better than using your tablet's browser. Both apps are free.

So if I download an app, that's free, its ok. But the free app could offer other apps that u have to pay for. As long as you as u don't click on those u have pay for, then that's ok, right?

Yes, that's right. It's been my experience that the free game apps are the ones most likely to have the in-app purchases that you have to be cautious of. If that's something you are worried about, you can require your tablet to require a password for purchases. I don't know how to do that on your tablet, but usually you go into settings and tap "require password for purchases."
