Europe and the u.s. Because of the risk of fire more and all of those to come give us a call your exclusive access to the gadgets tech to see Turk up all week all week 590-9693. Well hello good morning faves the how are you could morning yes I'm well thank good long time no speak now you're too nice to be on with you again as I see faces here for you to text number 85 or 5 eighths if you want to get a question in favor or should we start this week you've got a few stories we want to talk about and I'm intrigued by this app that lets peer it secretly spy on their children which to be honest so slightly concerning But should we start with your gadget of the week perhaps Yeah we'll do that it's a piece of software it's from a company called parallels and it's it's called parallels access and what it does is in the name it allows you to effectively access remotely your desktop or laptop computer so if you've got a Windows or an on Macintosh computer be a desktop or laptop machine even with a laptop it may not always be with you in the way that you or your tablet or indeed your smartphone may be with you so with Parallels access without allows you to do is control remotely your desktop. There's a lot of pieces of software that do essentially that that's not in itself unique but the way that Paulose access does it is it changes the way that you interact with that app so it's not that you just see you know a really tiny version of your of your desktop on the screen with buttons are too small to push and you know basically useless What this does is it makes your desktop apps it allows you to interact with them as you would with an app on your i Pad or your or your Android device so you've got you've got gesture control if you've got an i Pad Pro you've got the access to the Apple pencil. It basically changes the way that you can interact with it obviously you get the touch interface as well it makes it seem like an app you can put on the screen just like you have say on an i Pad You just have icons that you tap on that's what it what they become big sort of chunky icons that you can you can control it in the way that you want to so. It becomes quite remarkable because as long as you've got an Internet connection you can do useful work because good mobile apps can be you know sometimes we just need to be able to go back to was running in our desktop or we need to transfer a file for example we just need to do something there are our tablet or smartphone can't quite do yet so it does those things very well. The other nice thing I guess about it is that. Although I'm not in general a fan of subscription models where you don't apply the software this this software used to be a lot more expensive to subscribe to but it's come down in volume price in recent times so it's now 13 pounds $99.00 a year which I think for that is quite value could not even money and. They have a free trial version as well so you can just go to where is it now powerless dot com slash access and play around with the free trial version but I do like it because it's called For example if you go to this. Smartphone that has you know 3 d. Touch access that will work if you if you're running Windows 10 or Apple Michael West one of that will work and it kind of looks like magic when 1st time you see sort of Windows running when you tap a limb you know it's kind of what it should have looked like had Microsoft but it right on their own tablets before you know they gave up trying to exit so. Yeah so it's quite clever I mean I guess the term I've I've heard used in this is it api 5 is your program or desktop program so you get all the benefits of the of the touch interface but but you you still get to run your serious desktop apps your desktop I presume is to beyond as it has to be yeah it does it absolutely needs to be on because what you're doing is effectively your. Dialing into if you like but the key is the the responsiveness the lack of latency I mean this even a gaming mode where you can have accept playing a game that's actually running on your on your desktop computer but it works really well and you don't need you know it's always you've got even the Sesay even a 3 g. Connection you can do quite well which we've built your device on why fight it works remarkably well but I think I think the sort of the proof of the pudding is the fact that they have done a sort of I think it's a 30 day trial I think it's worth playing with because for most people when they try it you know it's quite surprised at how well it works it's interesting actually yes I like the idea of being able to access your desktop from the from in about thanks for no folks who will be back to you in just a couple of minutes of that's Ok m.r. Takes number of course for Feds 85 or 58 or you can give us a Reg 8 or 85909613 but I just want to break away for a couple of minutes because news has been reported for the last little while at least 4 people have died and 10 more have been injured after a pedestrian bridge in Miami collapsed yesterday rescue crews are still searching the rubble for victims the B.B.C.'s Patricia also Byron is in Miami and Patricia what's the latest from there. The latest that we know is that there are unfortunately 4 people dead after this collapsing on this bridge and 9 of them are injured some of them with critical wounds they had to go under surgery right now the rescue operators are staying there throughout the night to see if they can pull out some of the hopefully survivors that are trapped in their cars do you have any idea how many people may be trapped you know the authorities haven't really clarified so probably day don't even know the number because I mean just the scene was so shocking you could see blocks of concrete completely crashing cars I mean you could barely see the cars so it's quite a difficult situation for the rescue Sure absolutely. This was work is going on to establish watch because this bridge to come Doug. Yes I mean the company that helped build the bridge because there are 3 companies seem bald in that construction one of them has has said that they are going to do a thorough investigation to know what happened also on a federal level the government has announced that they're going to investigate this but we do know that there was a testing happening earlier before the bridge just went down we don't know if that's related but we can confirm that that happened earlier before the accident Ok Patricia thank you thanks for the update Patricia so barren reporting from Miami 30 minutes past 2 let's return to 5 see the gadget detective of course you can follow him on Twitter as well as at gadget detective on there where you can keep in touch them through the week when he's not up all night for you give us a ring or wait or wait 59 or 9693 the number to give us a call or you can text 5 or 5 each and let's get stuck into some of the questions of criminal ready for you favor see this one from Steven Essex sees please can you tell me why my p.c. Will not recognize a blank d.v.d. . Blank d.v.d. Plus our disk but will play the same form of disk that has been burned on a different p.c. Why could that be Ok so. There are different so that when you talk about disks that you can write to so these are effectively D.V.D.'s but on like the ones that you buy with movies already on them there are T.V.'s that you can write your own information on to them there are a number of different formats that hold this notice plus are the distant owners dash r. And there are r w to switch out rewritable the previous 2 being where you can only write to them once now. Even within a single format say Plus our Which I think Steve was was referring to there are there are differences of 1st of all there are things that affect how well a particular device can read them 1st of all the the disk itself some discs are better quality than others and will produce. The disks there are more widely readable you know they have so you know it's worth going for a branded disk resample the other is is how far the recording was done so you get the choice you can you can typically want to disk 16 times real time or 16 times the you know the normal speed or wait times or 4 times or even you can do it times one times one obviously takes a lot longer for it to write but what it tends to mean is that the various pits are are put onto the dish that are read as digits are placed more accurately and therefore they're more likely to be readable by White a variety of devices so that's also if you're creating your own right about this it's worth experimenting only with the brand so if you go yeah there's lots of brands but I mean for example the beta is a good brand you could you could do that well as opposed to you know and that sort . Unknown brand let's say and then try writing them slowly it also then depends on which machines are writing in which was reading it because this was a technology that never really became perfected in the sense of you know universal compatibility across all devices it is a bit of sucker don't see but as to say the brand of the disk and the speed at which you write it are the 2 of them the main factors that affect readability the machine that you own that is then attempting to read is of course a 3rd factor and some are more stable or more more capable of reading a wider variety of disks back as well but given that you probably don't want to change your machine you know the view just to playing with those 1st 2 options thanks very That's great this one sais. For is from Richard scuse me from Oxford I just want to know as Quick Office still available for tablets and he then goes on c.n.n. If so is the version with Google Drive still available but I think Quick Office and Google Drive are quite different aren't they in terms of. The integrate For example there are different products Yeah if you google drivers that is a very different thing and that's that's a cloud based drive quick office. Is an application suite that can use that sort of storage I don't know if it's still available for tablets but if it is not that I mean you know is it just thinking of parallels or the you know it's another way of getting stuff running on your tablet still runs on a p.c. But isn't available for the tablet I haven't seen quick office for quite some time so I don't want to be answered Oh no I couldn't I thought of the check as we proceed bokeh. You know it shouldn't be too hard to find out if it's still available yet similarly equivalent things that may exist that might be worth looking into as well of course of quick office as an option show a slightly different subject from Kev who asks the are bulls Bluetooth speakers worth the money of course brand's ability speaker are available Ok so what you have Bose is it's kind of like Marmite in that sense that's. So the way I would characterize it is this it depends. What you think makes for good sound reproduction some people think that's a good sound reproduction is to reproduce the original sound as accurately as possible i.e. You know the the bass and treble and midrange frequencies are recreated in the same proportion as the original sound Bose I think most people would say suggest don't necessarily try to do that what they try to do is make it sound as attractive as possible which isn't the same always as as accurate as possible so that being the case it's then very much a matter of personal taste as to whether you like it it's a bit it's a bit like well you know some people for example Beats headphones that's a good example beats which is now an Apple brand are generally known to be quite bass heavy so they will emphasize the low bass frequencies that can be great if you listen to certain types of you know pop music which at which is you know rhythmic and bass heavy and he emphasizes that also could be for example if you like to listen to music that's a on on on the London Underground or something like that where a lot of bass frequencies are lost so. In the same way Bose makes changes that you will either like or you will not like so the answer is you have to really try it you have to try it with your own music and in the environment that you're going to be using them and buy them by such a method that you can return them you know if you're not happy with them but it's actually themselves have quite generous returns policy but you should also check out the retailers returns policy as well that I think you can buy directly from bows and take advantage of their policy. Speaking personally then they're not my my my favorite you know tend to like. Phones such as Sennheiser i k g those sorts of things which are which are more accurate but but it just really depends on what you want to do sure so personal preference really is what that comes down to the phone number 080859. 693 am Jack joins us from Bryce and good morning Jack Hi there guys in the interest in for fab the high This has a. Yeah I wanted to ask if you could sort of recommend some backup software that you know because of I've had to back up some computers recently and not I tried the backups of comes with the 7 and then I'm used to others of print previous . And see backup which was really when the next day and the one of the one with the 7 seems caught by he doesn't rate tell you very much what's going on. Yeah yeah no well. Probably so it's probably important just to say to to to the listener that you know backup software is built into you know you version of Windows and if you don't want to go and spend extra money and for most people that's adequate it's not you know the most fully featured but it but it's built in and it's there you know please use it because you so many of the questions that we deal with you know on this program but also you know throughout the week. Is the fallout from people having problems where they have lost states where they don't have an adequate backups the most important thing is back it up even even if you are using the built in software beyond that you do get additional functionality from some of the sort of paid for solutions I would suggest y
