pfuf Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 Installed the update on one pc and I cant copy paste any text so becarefull if you consider to update your windows to 8.1 johan
Grant Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 I hate Window 8 anyway .. it's designed for touch screens and adapted for PC's and laptops ... hopeless in my opinion.
Administrators James H Posted October 20, 2013 Administrators Posted October 20, 2013 I updated to 8.1, and no issue with copy/paste here, but I will keep an eye out just in case in manifests. 2014 will be my time to move to a Mac...
Grant Posted October 20, 2013 Posted October 20, 2013 2014 will be my time to move to a Mac... Me too! I could kick myself for not doing it the last time around. I will definitely go the Mac route as soon as I can, after all I have an iPhone and an iPad which talk to each other (and include my Windows laptop begrudgingly !!) so I ought to complete the circle. 1
kahunaminor Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 Not a happy camper at all with the 8.1 upgrade. Had 8 working well on the PC without dramas. After upgrade I cannot connect to internet at times, Seagate drive mysteriously turns itself off and on and other problems. Really not happy Jan! Regards, Kent
Jamme Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 Completely agree with you PH-GEO. Have a Mac now (MacBook Air) for more than 2 years (I had enough of the Microsoft "system"), I would not change for all the Gold of the World. Cheers, Jamme
Steve Scanlon Posted July 26, 2014 Posted July 26, 2014 Ok so I have downloaded 8.1 and now I cannot copy/paste on to this site, is there a way round it?
Spitfire Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 My PC is running 8.1 and I have not had any problems at all, when I turn on the PC it goes straight to my desktop just like Windows 7, and it behaves itself. Cheers Dennis
Wingco57 Posted July 27, 2014 Posted July 27, 2014 Since having windows 8 I have trouble working at home. Getting logged in is a hit and miss affair. Sometimes it takes forever or it refuses to work at all. And sometimes it performs flawlessly. What I really hate are the updates I am not asking for but cannot avoid. How do I know what they are updating. Really hate that. Cees
mozart Posted July 28, 2014 Posted July 28, 2014 Apple? Yuk, you must be joking....... Is that through experience or prejudice? Max
RalphSarc Posted August 3, 2014 Posted August 3, 2014 My new HP laptop has the Microsoft 8.1 operating system. It replaces my outdated Acer XP driven box. So far even with the 62 years of age learning curve I'm enjoying the new laptop and 8.1. My old Acer laptop was a 10" notebook size I purchased with Holiday Inn Priority Club points years ago. While I never had a complaint with it Microsoft decided to end supporting Windows XP which marked the death nail to my beloved laptop.
