Hi I use polar alignment pro it's ok but it's out a tiny bit , I only use it if I have to set up on my patio , so you can trust it to be 100% right

Hi I did have that software but it had stars missing from lists and all stars in the plough were out of altitude you won't know till you link to your telescope that's when you find out it's not working it will not goto any star unless it's Polaris

Hi Steve I think I tried most of that , I am going dongle less for the time being and see if they do a fix for Android 11, I will use stellariaum and sky safari for targets May be in the future if I go back to a dongle we could meet up as see if you can make it all work I am just down the road from you in Luton

Hi guys I did uninstall and reinstall then loaded ok but still says Polaris ok but any other star in the plough is a no go due to out of altitude default is 75% I tried 60% which as low as it will go and 90% still no joy Giving up now every night last week I tried things but still no joy

Hi Steve yes I did and it didn't work that's when I was asked to try 11882

Hi yes I think so I will check again Yes I did I just checked , I think it's now got to a point of getting refund on Wi-Fi dongle and just use tablet for target info etc

Hi I am trying to see if I can get Synscan Wi-Fi to work with stellariaum , when I go into telescope connection it can't link location , in settings locations it correct but in main screen when you ask telescope to goto it has a icon at bottom of screen to remind you location is not in synchronised

Hi yes I have it on my phone and tablet so hoping the tablet will work ok with Synscan app

Yeah a real pain , I don't give up easy I really downloaded everything again just in case something strange happened when downloading, sky watcher are looking into it so are sky safari Just wonder if I can use stellariaum and how do I go about getting stellariaum to talk to the Synscan dongle

Hi as you may know I am having problems with Synscan app and star safari 6 pro , I can't get it working on a brand new tablet running Android 11 Shall I try stellariaum and see if that works can some one tell me how to set up please

Hi all I had email from sky watcher so here what's I sent them , second video is sky safari 6 pro

You could always pop down and be camera man lol

Hi Paul I sent message to sky watcher but not holding my breath I hate doing videos but will have to if that's the only way

Hi everyone I am having problems so I will list equipment and then the problem I am having HEQ5pro mount SW Wi-Fi dongle Samsung galaxy tab 7 Lite running Android 11 Ok I have the Synscan app downloaded from sky watcher web site now the main problem is most of the star list is missing I was trying to find Alcor which does not come up in any list , wookie1965 sent me a video were he touched the magnify glass and as he typed in Alcor the star came up top of the list then touched goto When I do the same as I type the name in the star list goes off the screen and it cant find Alcor ? The next problem is with sky safari 6 pro , this is hard to explain I can touch Polaris and the mount goes to it , then it I touch dubhe the mount does not move but on the screen shows coordinates changing but mount is not moving ? This does this on lots of targets the mount don't move but shows coordinates changing as if the mount is moving Also I found if I use this app on my old galaxy S6 it works and shows the full star list . So I wonder if it's due to Android 11

Hi I use the celestron power pack the big one I can run telescope and dew heaters it's rated for 10 hours I have not done 10 hours but does last a long time https://www.bing.com/aclk?ld=e8Nwyq7hYYs05vIIpXZdZzLDVUCUycjgmXfLmQ_yc4ecvL2up3peJZPU0pUvm1Nbhc-1w920Ar_qyJxep1qeOkLbx63Vmw76c5crjv33H1pQg-CVLO8dbH_mcd8MRkK8EINQqFJ4f0j8Owr_kIFtI23fNJOuL6GNeAgAdYTgZKGdjWuDBMtCG3RdDZYwVK5msjXAT3bA&u=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&rlid=4fb337fbb3021080f6b2561b3ab4597c https://www.bing.com/aclk?ld=e8auvSOeU7TUh_7BBj1In9XDVUCUxhp1rCNtWCDvGdM5rnNVeTdelc28alLaJgPAUn3VTRVKyXkt5fd4UTJIApnNX_F0CvBFoGRVWQGlLZJUJYD7vk8eUilDKXvIxR9NgqjVdVPOBhmEPziIvZWecZvd_C7Hc7Xykl_f-yaL7Pnwr-xVJTn41oj5sB5jQmNTfYZecNqw&u=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&rlid=d7ab799e27731bab664a187eaec56421

Hi yes has a really big data base , also gives you what's best targets for the night your out , you can also add your own list of targets to work through plus it can link to your telescope so no hand set is needed

Hi thanks for info I think my phone memory is tiny and it won't load , so I am looking at a tablet just to run telescope and astronomy apps , I think this one may be a good bet https://www.amazon.co.uk/TECLAST-P20HD-Processor-Acceleration-1920x1200/dp/B08BZL81QZ/ref=sr_1_3?crid=2LM59LBBH2VH2&keywords=android+tablets+10+inch&qid=1641722323&s=computers&sprefix=Android%2Ccomputers%2C209&sr=1-3

No I didn't thanks for the heads up

I do have stellariaum plus so will use that for now , the best route may be a second hand smart phone I can get a galaxy 8+ for about 160

Thanks for the info I will have a look at a tablet what sort of spec would you say I need sorry in thick mode today

Yeah I think we worked out it's a memory problem

Hi everyone , if this is in the wrong section can the mod move it , ok I got the Sky watcher Wi-Fi dongle and was going to use sky safari 6 pro on my Samsung galaxy S6 , I downloaded from Google play last night it said there are 18 data files to download and it started to download 14 hours later still not done , on cloudy nights the writer of the programme said to uninstall and reinstall still not working , has any one on here got any ideas before I got for a refund I have stellariaum on my phone will this work ok to operate the scope ok ? I also have the synscan app does this have the same into as the hand set ?

Brilliant when it comes I will have a play I don't mind if I have to get sky safari

Thanks for the chat Paul I emailed FLO and asked them to change it to the Wi-Fi dongle which is cheaper This now raises another question will it work with stellariaum or do I have to use sky safari pro 6
