  2. Can't rename a notebook and have it sync the new name to phone?

    You can change the notebook name in SkyDrive and then it will sync with the new name.

    Skydrive

    Hi,

    Have you verified your Skydrive-account at skydrive.com (accepted the new changes)? If you haven`t it wil pop up once you have logged on to the website.Make, off course, sure that it`s the same login you use.

    Also, to change from "someone`s Skydrive" to "Your-name Skydrive" just follow these steps: http://helpdeskgeek.com/office-tips/office-2013-replace-someones-skydrive-with-your-name/

    Is it the WP8 Skydrive app you`re having problems with, or is it the built in Skydrive?

    Yes I got the message about it yesterday, thought I'd read somewhere that the new name even was in doubt, we'll see. *Wink

  9. After applying the leaked update 1 for 8.1 Skydrive has been renamed to Onedrive. I only have the basic free version, haven't noticed anything else other than the name change.

    Not only did it change names, but they deleted also at least 1 important function. If you read a PDF document with the web app, the hyperlinks don't work any more - they used to. That is very inconvenient for me because I have a collection of tutorials there with hyperlinks that are dead now - like e.g. this one. Now you have to download the file if you want to operate it.

    Hope it isn't going to be to big of problem. Also hate it when things get changed without prior notice.

    It is a big inconvenience indeed. Operating the PDF with the web app was so convenient.
