WD Ready View app not working on iPad after latest ‘bug fix’ update

I have had the app installed on both my iPad and iPhone with no issues until now… last week the app updated v 1.2.1 with ‘bug fixes’. Since that update, my app no longer works on the iPad (no issues thus far on iPhone possibly due to it not automatically…

Does anyone know of plans for a Washington location?
So I live in Washington and the closest computer store to me is best buy, and they have just about nothing there. I have also seen a lot of people on twitter requesting a Washington location. Anyone know of plans to get a Microcenter location over here?

Can you please open a store somewhere in the Buffalo NY or Rochester area. I am very desperate.
I live in Niagara Falls NY and I would like to see a Micro Center store open up somewhere in the region. The nearest store is over 4 hours away in Columbus Ohio which just isn't do-able for someone who wants to buy a new PC. There are almost no electronics stores in my area that actually have things in stock and provide…

Micro Center Arizona
As someone who has always been a loyal customer to Micro Center during my stay in Denver, and Florida (Duluth Store). The Phoenix Tech Community is on their knees when we ask for a new store to be brought to the valley.

Microcenter in Phoenix
We have vacant Fry's buildings in the Phoenix area that could probably be had for a song . The reason they went out of business is because they started selling stuff not even related to electronics and stocked a bunch of water and other stuff and never restocked the electronics . I tried helping out by buying whatever I…

AMD Build for development
Hello, I'm a software engineer looking to build a PC. I'll be running Linux (Mint) as the OS. I do not do gaming. The biggest load the PC will experience is embedded Linux builds. These will usually utilize all available cores to parallelize the compile. These can last 1-2 hours (depends). I have some specs I know I need,…

Decent Build?
I've been wanting to build a pc for a while now and I am about to pull the trigger. I put this together, I'm in my budget but I'm not sure how well it will look and perform.

Nashville for a store
Nashville is one of the fastest growing markets in the country. Many tech companies are using this area as a primary or backup operations site to avoid coastal target cities.

Micro Center! Las Vegas Needs You!
Hi there! Not much rhyme or reason for this post, but I recently built a new PC after not building one for a couple of years. It just occurred to me that after Fry's Electronics closed a couple of years ago, we no longer have a mainstream dedicated store for selling computer hardware. I basically had to resort to buying…

Why does it say "Compatibility Filters have been disabled for this item."

Has anyone else had this many issues regarding a repair/diagnostic?
I brought my PC in like.. three weeks ago or so for a diagnostic. The first time around wasn't so bad honestly, in about 3 days they told me the GPU was bad, so I picked it up, bought a new GPU, and plugged it in.

Future plans for Washington State?
We've not had a tech center in our region for our shopping needs ever since the infamous implosion of a certain chain. The closest thing we have is Best Buy, which carries absolutely nothing. Many of us enthusiasts have to rely on web shopping for anything, which leads to a bit of scamming, inflated pricing, etc. I for…
