I am currently living in another country and have been unable to get the amazon kindle app to word due to this. This is also an issue for me regarding books through the android market.
Was hoping that someone might be able to help me with a work around for this as I would love to be able get books on here...
Thanks for the help, always greatly appreciated.
Is this Asus Transformer Prime Market App legit?
https://market.android.com/details?...yLmFzdXMuZWVlLnBhZC50cmFuc2Zvcm1lci5wcmltZSJd
The dev has a bunch of similar apps for other devices with decent reviews so chances are that its a legit app.

I tried it out. all it does is rehash old info and doesn't even give full story. you want full article, it links you to web browser. its good concept but the app itself not even tablet optimized..lol

Hahaha, fail. Thanks for the info.
Here's a Neat Trick!
you want a quick and easy way to keep up to date, try this. Enter "Asus Transformer Prime" into google, change the settings to News only, last 24 hrs and sort by date. Keep that page up on your pc and Refresh that in the morning and at night. Or you could bookmark it on your mobile device and check it w/e. I've found a ton of great info like that. Hope it helps. ^ ^
Hello all just recently joined the prime family and I am trying to get movies onto the tab. I successfully got two onto it, but I am having trouble getting the didgital copy edition ones on. Rather I should say I can't get them to work period. Can anyone recomened me a program that removes the drm and can convert the movies into an appropriate file. I am unrooted and I have vista as my os on my computer 32 bit I think any help would be much appreciated thanks.

If your able to get them on the prime but unable to play the format, try downloading an app called " online player". It can play almost any format.
Go to the play store on your tablet and download MX VIDEO PLAYER. this will play just about any video format.
Thanks for the input and i have tried mx player, bb player, dice and many others. I am finding that I am having trouble with files that are DRM protected. I have 2 movies on my prime that i can view no problem, but I have tried to put 2 other movies on that came with blue ray as a digital copy that i cannont play. I am looking for a video converter or perhaps a program that can remove the DRM on the file so that they can be played back on the prime.
thanks.
oh and a side note, i can not seem to reply or post anything on xda from my prime, all i can do is read. Am i stupid and just not using it right or does it not yet have complete functionality with ICS? any thoughts?

I would recommend Dice Player, a nice simplistic UI and plays practically any media files along with subtitles and such.
As for the XDA problem are you using the browser? If so are you even logged in? lol
I have been using DVD Catalyst. The software is very inexpensive and the developer is extremely responsive. He is a "supporting vendor" at the Transformer Forums. There is a trial period for the software if you want to try it out. He was right there to help when one of the 15 videos I was converting using the software just wouldn't work. He got right back to me and helped me with necessary adjustments. Not sure about Vista but you could ask him.
fyi, here's a link to the forum section for further info

Actually i am using the app from the STORE, and i am logged in as well i can add, reply and post from my evo, but when im on the prime i cant see any way to do so.
I can post, reply etc. from my Prime, the menu icon near the bottom of the screen supports that functionality...I am using the paid version though, I'm not sure about the free one. Support the devs!!! It is certainly worth the small cost to have access to all the knowledge found at XDA forums!

Ya i have the free version and that might be the case. I just have the back arrow, the home button, and the recently used button come up on the bottom of the screen, i just might have to look into buying the pro version.

Yup, I've been using DVD Catalyst for a while and it's never met a video file or DVD it hasn't converted. There are presets for all kind of devices and it's easy to use. I'll second the fact that the dev is very quick to reply. Every e-mail I've sent asking a question has been met with a responce in a couple of hours. I'm not sure about digital copies, I've never tried to convert on of those yet.

Digital Copies (the ones you get with some DVDs and Blurays) are DRM protected. They use an activation system that is mostly compatible with Apple iDevices and Windows Mobile devices, but not with Android devices.
There are some newer formats, such as UltraViolet and PocketBlu, that are "Android" compatible, but they are a bit of a hit & miss.
There are some tools that use your computer to play and record the files in order to "convert" them (the only way), however, you will achieve better results by converting the actual BR and DVD discs directly.

Are these "digital copy editions" iTunes videos?
I ran into the same problem. I buy a lot of DVDs and when they come with a "Digital Edition" it is always an iTunes video which has some sort of copy protection that prevents non-Apple devices from playing them most of the time.
I used an program called Noteburner M4v Converter that sells for $40. It strips the DRM out of the iTunes movies and allows you to play them on other devices.
Here is a link to the site:
http://noteburner.com/noteburner-m4v-converter.html
It takes a while to convert the movies but the quality is just as good as the unconverted movies and you can convert them to several formats. I kept the videos in M4v format since Android has no problem reading this format and it is easier to convert from one format to the same format if all you are interested in doing is getting rid of the DRM so you can play you legally purchased movies on your Android device.
Ya I can rip regular DVDs onto my prime but the digital copies I find have the drm on them and won't let me add it to my prime guess I need to buy a blue ray reader for my computer

I have this same problem. seems to be the drm incoding. I looked at DVD catalyst site, and it says that it can't convert drm encrypted files. Any one have another program that will?
Hello dear fellow Transformer Prime owners!! I just purchased one today for my wife to surprise her because she is starting up school again and she wanted a tablet, so what better than the Transformer Prime lol
My question is, I literally just opened the box... and I would really like to get it school-ready for her when she comes back, because she's starting this summer and she has classes starting next week.
Now what I mean by "school-ready" is simple, I would like her to be able to read e-books (because I am getting e-book version of her books that she needs for class) so that she can read them and use them, I would also like her to be able to use Word, Excel, Powerpoint, etc... is that possible on this tablet?
Because she has a writing class and she would like to be able to type essays and stuff on their.
So please help me and let me know how I can do all that, and if you have any other recommendations for the tablet to get it "school-ready", please share!!!
Thank you soooooooooooo much in advance, all help will be greatly appreciated

sweet! I just got it thank you!! Quick question, I opened a word document and went to settings, and it says that there isn't a dictionary... where can I get one?
I think I have left my Transformer Prime at an airport.
I believe that the ASUS provide an app on the Transformer prime where you set up an account, and you can log in to find it (It's its connected via WiFi to something). However I now can't find any mention of this. Am I making this up, or can someone tell me the name of the website?
Thanks.
