Re: Cortana

2016-04-21 Thread Olusegun -- Victory Associates LTD, Inc. via Talk

I used Ms. Cortana on my Android phone.  I even got her to sing a bit!

We couldn't go out on a date because she kept being too overtly possessive; 
I was no longer able to use OK Google.  So we parted ways!


Since I don't run any incarnation of Windows10 at this time, it will be a 
while before I can try shaking hands with her again to see if we can mend 
fences.


Sincerely,
Olusegun
Denver, Colorado

RE: Cortana

2016-04-20 Thread Rod Hutton via Talk
Hi Larry,

Using Cortana is equivalent to what you did before when you used to press
the Start button in previous versions of Windows and typed in things you
wanted to search for; 
in fact, they now refer to doing searches from the Start menu as invoking
Cortana.
Also, I suspect that the difficulty you're having in getting her to
understand you is you may have your microphone recording level set too high
and so you can try turning it down to 60 or so.
The keyboard shortcut for invoking Cortanaa, at which point you hear the
chime and so you can begin your enquiry, is Windows-C.

Hth,

Rod

Just wondering if anybody has had any luck using Cortana, and how
effectively.

I need to get me a decent microphone I;'m sure to make it work in the way it
was designed to worked,  but just how well can it be used with the keyboard?

I asked her this morning about the final score of last nights Chicago
Blackhawks game, and I hope the score I think I got was correctly read by
me, because they won 4-3 against the St. Louis Blues.

Anyway any observations on Cortana would be appreciated,

Hi Larry!
I have had some luck in using cortana, but not for anything more than 
getting a temperature or something like that.  I know you can use 
cortana for much more supposedly, but haven't  yet figured it out.  
There is supposedly a list of commands  which work with cortana but as 
of yet I have been unsuccessful in finding them. Good Luck & Have A 
Great Day! de
