Amazon Echo Discussion / Re: Need help adding different Tidal users to Echos on my Amazon account
« Last post by renegade600 on January 17, 2023, 09:13:55 am »
According to the skill in the android app, it says

Quote
This skill requires account linking,  If you have multiple profiles in your household, Alex will only enable and link this skill for the profile that is currently logged in.

IMO,it is saying you will not be able to do what you want.

Anybody have any advice on how to do this?

I for one have no clue what Tidal is... so maybe it's not common to the users here. I would think going through the Tidal people would be a first point of entry to find out though. If their stuff works with Echo fo you, they surely know how to expand the user base for their product... right? But for a comparison, don't get too excited, as Apple and The Bridge for my HUE lighting is not terribly friendly and I've been to Apple and Hue both and no joy... for over 2 years, even with all the updates they've been given.

Good luck figuring out a cure.

Echo Technical Support / Re: Lifx bulb in Lifx app but Alexa can't see it
« Last post by AlexaSTOP on January 15, 2023, 08:22:30 pm »
I was constantly getting unresponsive wifi lights and echo dots. A router reboot sorted for half an hour or so, but then the unresponsive lights and echo's would-be back. Turned out I had to change the channel of WiFi 2.4ghz. it had been set to11 without problems for 6 months. Must have been a neighbours new router interfering.
I set mine to auto and no problem from there on.

Disabled the Lifx skill, closed everything, re-enabled.  Got the notifications that my Amazon account had been linked with Lifx Optimized for small home skill.  Went to Alexa app and tried to add a new device.  It still couldn't find it in Lifx.

Reset the light because Lifx said it was unresponsive.  Couldn't get anything to connect to it.  After the reset, Lifx found it, added it to the proper group, and I can control it's off/on, color, and intensity with the Lifx app.  Changed its name just in case anything was remembered on the old one..

Echo Technical Support / Specifically Dot 3 audio quality
« Last post by AlexaSTOP on January 15, 2023, 08:16:05 pm »
I have a dot 2 and a dot 5, sound quality is clear with no problems.

However, the 2x dot 3's I have, the sound from Alexa's responses is completely unintelligible at the worse and bad at the best. No top end, just muffled like it is covered with a pillow.

The EQ settings in the app make no difference whatsoever to Alexa's spoken responses, no change - EQ does not seem to touch Alexa's responses.

EQ does however change the quality from any streaming of Amazon music or streaming radio stations and it is quite acceptable.

I talked to customers services who were assuring me this seems strange and they haven't heard of it before 🤔 I sent one back for an exchange..which is exactly the same.
Warranty period expired just after that so I'm stuck with it.

Anyone else or just me? If so, is there a fix for it without using external speakers?

Thanks

Echo Technical Support / Routines
« Last post by AlexaSTOP on January 15, 2023, 08:03:45 pm »
I use the routines to wake me up early with huebulb and music on Monday, and Friday which works great. The trouble is the Monday and Friday I need to use these routines are not every week, they are alternate weeks.
Is there any way of setting the 'Every M F' checkboxes to 'Every other M F'? Being woken up at 4.40am for no reason on the other week I don't need to is a pain.

I could turn off the routines when not needed but I am sure to forget to turn them on again. I just want to setup and leave it.

Any help appreciated.

If your device is registered to your Amazon account, just look in the Devices section of your account: https://www.amazon.com/hz/mycd/digital-console/alldevices

Otherwise, see which one looks like your device: https://www.amazon.com/gp/help/customer/display.html?nodeId=GHRYQ6GHE4A5TUD2
Great thank you

Sorry to say it, but it looks like Amazon is making things worse.  I just visited their Alexa site and there is a banner that reads:

The site address I visited was alexa.amazon.com

"This website does not currently support all Amazon devices and Alexa features, and functionality will continue to be reduced over time. For full functionality, please download the latest version of the Alexa app. Contact us if you have any questions."
