    Hi. Maybe someone can give me a quick fix. I have about 100 contacts listed in my Atrix. All of them were entered directly into the Atrix. I noticed that only 20 of them show up in my gmail account, the others are just listed as a "Motorola Services contact." The gmail contacts have this...

    Help Unsupported video format in YouTube uploads

    Uploading camcorder videos to YouTube is just about impossible. Even when the upload actually completes, most of the time I get an "Unsupported video format" message when trying to view it. What can be wrong? Isn't the Atrix supposed to upload to YouTube seamlessly? Anyone help? Thanks

    Where are my YouTube uploads going?

    Can anyone tell me where my YouTube uploads are going and how I can view them, both from the Atrix itself and my pC at home? It sounds like I'm an idiot, but how can I check what YouTube account the Atrix uses? And what is a YouTube channel? Is that where my vidoes are? Thanks

    If you go to contacts, and click on a contact, then go to settings, one of the options is "Share." Click on that and you will see a similar window, with the different listings of that contact, with an active green checkmark next to it. The options are OK or Cancel. What does this do? Who am...

    Help How can people who view my videos on their pc see them if they don't have a converter?

    If I take a camcorder video and email them to a friend or relative who tries to view them on their pc, they cannot because they have to be converted to some other file format first, right? Very few people would know how to do this and/or bother to do it. Can I convert them first on the Atrix...
