  1. Is there any way of downloading the song so that it plays the words in English on the screen like Manuel posted in Spanish? No big deal I can print off the lyrics from jw.org I have the song downloaded as normally but it doesn't have the words on the screen. Just curious, thanks.
  2. Does anyone know about virtual backrounds on zoom? I don't know much about them just that it's possible. Can you set one up without having to sign in? The brothers locally say it's best if I do not sign up and just go to join a meeting directly without doing so. Just curious if I can set up a backround without having to sign up/sign in to a personal account with zoom. Hope I'm making sense.
  3. The thing at the top of my list is to be re-united with all my lost loved ones. I listen/watch some of the videos about the new system (especially ones set to music) and imagine my family as the people in it. I'd love to be able to bake from home in my custom kitchen, and grow my own cocoa, coffee & vanilla (among other stuff as well) Would love to be able to learn how to make glass/crystal and also how wine & rum are both made. Provided Jehovah lets me of course.
  4. I have a question about zoom, hope this is the right spot to ask. They would like everyone to change their phone/device name to include a last name. Is it possible to do this in zoom only somehow without having to change it on the phone itself? So far I have not signed in or anything, according to the elders information about how to log in to the meeting, I just go to join a meeting. Any possibility that I can leave my phone name as is and change it only for zoom? Thanks.
  5. I should know how to do this, but it's gotten me a little frustrated at the moment so was hoping someone could help. I'm using an iPhone and would like to see if I can update the bible in the app so I can get the newer videos/introductions (hope I'm making sense). But I can't remember or figure out how to update it.
  6. Ok, I'm not sure which forum to chose to ask this so excuse me if it's the wrong one. I am hoping to book a cruise holiday out of New Jersey/Cape Liberty and I'll be arriving a couple days early so I have a whole day before the cruise. I was thinking how far is Bethel/Warwick? Is it too far to consider? I have never been to the area so know nothing about how far things might be and what traffic might be like. Assuming of course that having a car to get there is an absolute necessity? There's only the one day and it would be a Saturday (tours on Saturdays?). Of course, all this might not happen, I'm just in the planning stages but would love to visit Bethel if I was in the area.
  7. Not incredibly gifted when it comes to technology although I seem to muddle through ok. I was wondering if it's possible to go on my iPhone through safari and download the choral renditions from Sing Joyfully to Jehovah directly from there, instead of downloading to iTunes and then attaching my phone through a usb? Using an iPhone 6 plus. I know I can download it to the app, but I would like to have a playlist in my iTunes library on my phone.
  8. Still doing my shopping around to see whats best. I've come across an android box, does anyone know if you can get the Broadcasting App on one of those?
  9. The tv has 3 hdmi ports with 2 spare not used yet.
  10. In order for my parents to watch a few videos like the assembly which they cant' always attend it's downloaded onto a usb/flash drive (they have no computer) My parents tv (a smart tv) doesn't have a usb port so to make this a lot easier, I was thinking if I got a roku then I think some of them have a usb port. They would also be able to watch the broadcast on the tv through the downloadable app on the device? Am I right in this? I have an apple tv (3rd generation) , which is great for me, but it has no usb port so it wouldn't help. I don't know much about roku so I was hoping someone here might be able to confirm if I'm right before I head out and get one.
  11. Not that I'm excited or anything, but roughly when should I expect to see the original song listed under audio or video in the app?
  12. I really really love that song. Excitedly waiting for it to be available on the app like the other original songs.
  13. Butter is the first thing I spread on anything I'd put a spread on. But whether its good for you or bad for you, I do like Nutella. If it tastes like chocolate I'll probably love it lol. I've had it slightly warmed and drizzled on a waffle which I thought was amazing.
  14. I don't suppose the chorus versions of Sing Out Joyfully to Jehovah are available in Tagalog are they?
  15. There are so many that come to mind, each for different reasons. One or two that stand out lately, are the one of Jesus on the white horse in the Gods Kingdom Rules book. You can really see the vigor and determination in it. I think its page 229. Another is from the Imitate their Faith book, and also of Jesus. I always wondered what the look on Jesus face would have been as he watched from the shore as Peter dove overboard and swam to shore not wanting to wait for the boat to get there. And in the book their is a depiction of Jesus (almost like a gift to me) Another and for a different reason, it is almost a shocking picture, are the ones from a while back I'm sure in a study magazine, where it shows Adam and Eve as being very old. When I saw it for the first time it was almost shocking (although it shouldn't have been) I guess I was just used to seeing them in depictions of being in Eden, or shortly thereafter. One last one, I still remember to this day, and it I remember it from when I was young, in the orange Paradise book (that's probably dating me lol) of the ark and the animals in Noah's day. Its not a picture like you'd find today but I liked it a lot.
  16. I am still trying to decide whether I'd like to see the movie. I enjoy the original 3 (and even the prequels were ok) but not sure about this one yet. Mainly cause I liked where Jedi ended (I like a happy ending what can I say) I also enjoy spoilers so I know what happens. And it's because of a couple of things I've heard that make me still hesitant about seeing it. Probably will be on dvd if I do see it. I did happen to see the star wars fireworks at Disney for the 18th of December which was really cool, set to Star Wars music, and also the new exhibit they have.
  17. I'd love to ask John the Baptizer and Joseph (Jesus stepfather) what they remember about Jesus. I'm sure that I'm not the only person here who finds that as you study the bible the list of faithful men of old that I'm looking forward to meeting seems to be getting bigger. So limiting it down to one or two is getting harder and harder lol. On my mind lately since I've read the upcoming study article is Abraham. This one wouldn't happen I'd probably only hear about it, but being able to be in the room when it's explained to Naomi that the Messiah came through Ruth's son.. There's a conversation I'd love to be a part of with Moses as well. But I think I'm going to stop here lol.
  18. I'm a little bit nervous mentioning/asking this, but since the topic is Disney's new ride/attraction that they've announced . . . I did read about their new seasonal event they are going to be having (to do with Star Wars). And I'm sure I read 'early in the year'. I'd love to know when abouts this would be but so far there hasn't been any announcements so far on exact dates.
  19. I'm embarrassed to have to ask this (cause I should probably know) but the picture is really neat so I have to ask. Where is the picture of Moses & the burning bush from? Thanks.
  20. Thanks. I found the option in ibooks and at least know how to do it if I need to. I don't need it per say, but if I'm ever sharing with someone beside me, and they need to see it bigger, at least I can do that for them.
  21. Thanks, I'll look into it. There has to be at least something similar if not that one. At least I know what kind of thing to look for.
  22. I have never been a very technically inclined person, so you'll have to excuse this lol. I have a question about epub files that I wondered if anyone on here could help me answer. Can you increase the size of the document you are reading? Say, the Watchtower for instance, can I make the print bigger like I can with a pdf file (by sort of making a pinching with my fingers and spreading the document bigger) Or do epub files stay only in one size print. It doesn't really matter as I'm not having a problem seeing it, am just curious. I'm using an ipad and prefer the epub files cause I can touch the scripture and it pops up in a little box.
  23. Got it on my tablet now also, haven't read very far, but so far as always is excellent.
