Thanks for the update!
I am not sure of how its supposed to work, but I installed WebosQI v4.0, opened, connected my pre plus and saw no feeds, no apps, etc. Then I hit the "globe" refresh icon and lo! everything loaded. Even found a solitaire app that I thought webos never had. ( Dont hate me for this ) Since I use the command line for everything, I found ths typo in the first message of this thread: /Application_s_/Utilities/Java/Java Preferences Thanks, veerar. |
