As July ends the “Trespassing” touring era now seems to be over with the last show at Paso Robles. But work continues as Adam is to be part of the Glee cast and also is guesting on Avicii’s new single “Lay Me Down”. It may be quiet on the touring front but there are always surprises. When it comes to Adam, expect the unexpected! Photo from Alikat1323 Smugmug.
Enjoy the chat!

    Back atcha TLKC! Heart

    Just to switch the subject, did you guys know that Audra Mae on Avicii’s CD is Judy Garland’s great -great-niece? I didn’t!

    I didn’t know that either. That’s interesting!

    cwm: I hope you feel better already. I am completely under water with the new school year and what not, but I want to let you know that I agree with you all around and I am glad to said something. If left unchecked, it can be a slippery slope from joking to negativity, and I am as much prone to this as as anybody.
    Ron: I wish I had your wisdom.

    Can somebody please tell me why I can’t get the instagram pics anymore? I always could see them. Frown Frown

    HKfan and Cocoglam:

    This is a “book” about Instagram current incompatibilities so if you are having no problem viewing Instagrams or Vines in your browser right now – just move along past this post. But if you are having issues viewing these types of media, the following may help you. Caution – I have not actually tried this temp fix because Instagrams work for me – I have just located this temp fix info by googling the issue.

    Apparently instagram recently did an upgrade so people can import saved videos now, instead of just realtime posting of videos. This upgrade just happened in early August and the problems started being reported about a week ago. I am using a new laptop (a few months ago) with Windows 8 and google chrome browser and I have no problem viewing instagram and vine pics and videos. But apparently some people are having issues.

    Some people are saying it is related to Adobe Flash Player’s hardware acceleration feature causing conflict in browser and there is a temporary fix for this. But before doing the temporary fix thing, I guess I would first make sure you have the most current version of Adobe Flash, just in case that update on your computer is behind the Instagram update.

    But if you want to try the temporary fix, within google chrome browser, Enter “Chrome:flags” in the address bar. On the page that comes up, find an entry that says “Disable hardware-accelerated video decode.”
    Click “Enable” button.

    Please note that the Chrome:flags area is a long page and takes awhile to find “Disable hardware-accelerated video decode”. A faster way to find it is to press the Control key and F (for Find) key on your keyboard at the same time and then when the window comes up, type in accelerated and arrow down through the times that word shows up on that page. BTW, if you are not already aware of the Control F keyboard function, it is a big time saver for searching a particular webpage.

    But since this is a recent Instagram update issue, it is possible that if you just wait a week or so, everything on your computer will get caught up. It depends on whether you have updates set to happen automatically or whether you have them set to just notify you and you have to specifically elect to do the update. Certain updates, like Adobe Flash and Java, IMO may be better to have set to be notified and then rather than clicking on that notification, specifically go to the Adobe.com website or Oracle/java website to download the updates (uncheck any boxes that download extra toolbars etc).

    The reason I say this about Adobe Flash and Java is that there are some known trojans that masquerade as Adobe Flash updates so when you click on the notification to do the update, it could actually be downloading a lot of stuff that you do not want and not an Adobe Flash update. The trojan hijacks your browser home page, tracks your internet activity, and makes use of it unstable and therefore slow.

    Java is just inherently hackable (poor security controls) and prone to delivering trojans to your computer, so I actually have it disabled in all of my browsers and only enable it specifically for something that I can’t view without Java (rarely need it for things that I routinely do). And I make sure my Java is always the most current version,since the programmers at Oracle keep trying to close their software holes. But again, I do not ever click on Java update notifications, but rather I specifically go to Oracle/Java for the update download.

    I have removed 3 such trojans in recent months on the computer of my husband, my son, and my father-in-law. Two of these trojans were embedded in the Java program files and one came in with an false adobe flash update notification. These experiences have self-taught me about these security concerns related to Flash and Java. We use one of the strongest antivirus software (Kaspersky)and Father-in-law has Norton, but these trojans still happen, because you are specifically clicking to give permission to your antivirus software to go ahead and do the Flash or Java update when you click on the update notification. Right after you download such trojans, your antivirus software finds the malware, but can’t remove it. So far, for me, System Restore to an earlier point in time has worked for me to eliminate these trojan issues when this happens.

    BTW, similar Instagram compatibility issues are being reported for Firefox browser, but the instructions on how to do temp fix are different – just google it – or just wait – everything will probably get back in compatibility in a week or two once either Instagram or Firefox or Flash gets caught up with their compatibility issues, because users report the bugs like this and eventually they fix and do updates.

    Not sure if posting the above computer stuff is inappropriate, particularly since it is so long. I am just trying to help people to view our boy in all his glory!

  9. jlurksacto says:

    I can’t get the instagram pics anymore?

    My probs with instagram pics (videos) is with them not opening in
    browser Internet explorer. They work fine in Chrome or
    Mozilla Firefox. So suggestion is try another browser. They
    are free and just take a few minutes to download. This is
    true with anything but apple products. I have a imac laptop
    but only use it when traveling so don’t know too much about
    it.

  19. LadyNorth says:

    Thanks aely Big Smile Wow, so does that mean there will be MORE music with Nile and Avicii??? Oh boy I love to see him seriously back in making music again, can’t wait Big Smile!

    I am a bit out of things that’s been happening here – had to catch a lot of pages that I missed during past couple of weeks. I needed something to happen in my “love” life and put a profile on an internet dating site. That is so time-consuming and also driving me nuts (alongside that my back cracked badly Frown ) but girl has to do something if she doesn’t like to go to clubs or doesn’t have friends who know single guys Grin I guess I give up soon, but at least I’ve tried… What comes to Adam’s love life, I am very neutral about the guys he hangs around with, whatever they are (dates, mates, pals etc). mils, your list rant was again a nice thing to read Smile I understand a concern of some, and I am not offended at all if people express opinions about people he is seen with, but personally (in the middle of a slightly wild experimenting period of my life) I think Adam can handle his human interactions, so I am not worried. Which doesn’t mean I wouldn’t be happy if I saw him in a loving relationship again Smile I loved to see him so openly in love with Sauli.

    jlurk, I feel sorry for your “passive smoking” situation, back in the mid 2000’s there were huge forest fires in Western Russia, and all that smoke came to Finland too. It was awful. Hope that it passes quickly!

  20. LadyNorth says:

    I want to say hi to all new posters and wish belated birthday to all those who have had bd Smile Or whatever else to celebrate. Sorry to hear about your mom cwm Frown I hope she is coping ok, as well as you Heart

  21. glambotgram says:

    Yay excited about new music, anything that gets Adam out there to the masses. But have no idea who MysterySkulls is/are. Goes to look them up….

  22. LadyNorth says:

    Twitter says Adam started to follow Island records… People are wondering does it mean anything. Some tweet said it’s also a record company of Queen and Avicii, but I don’t have now time to check it.

  23. nkd says:

    EDM with a funk groove. Catchy!

  24. nkd says:

    Just listened to the Mystery Skulls Ep, that’s some cool stuff! I like it.

    Thank you Sam for tweeting Nile and thank you Nile for believing in Adam and taking him into your world. Some great things could come from this.
    Heck, they already have! Sooo can’t wait for this new music!

  25. aely says:

    @Taateli1: We are gonna see Sauli in Finnish tv a lot! In his own tv show Saulin paras kaveri and in Dancing on Ice Finland. So happy!!

    LOL. Too cute. http://twitter.com/8_jennyy/status/370165214538252288/photo/1

  26. TLKC says:

    OMG. Adam was given a copy of AURA! Can’t imagine what it will be like for the fans who contributed to know that he might read their contributions.

    http://onthemeaningofadamlambert.files.wordpress.com/2013/08/1175646_10151832268830730_124264878_n.jpg

    That will get him through a blue day (if he ever has one!)

  27. TLKC says:

    OMG aely! That’s why Sauli left before the end of August. Here in Canada we had a Dancing on Ice show using hockey players and champion figure skaters. It included a lot of lifting and was actually quite dangerous. I couldn’t watch it after a while.

    It ended after two seasons – the winners of the first season divorced their spouses and married each other! Bad publicity. (Plus the husband of the figure skater was their coach – Frown )

    No similar worries here.

    Great additional promo for his LA Lifestyle show.

  28. TLKC says:

    BTW, I generally post in the morning and Fall gets busy. I’ll be checking-in but probably won’t have a lot of time to post. (Ya’ll are breathing a huge sigh of relief right now, aren’t you? Laugh Laugh Laugh )

    Take care of yourselves. Never let online matter so much that it can ruin your day (or more.)

    And in the end the love you take is equal to the love you make.

  29. riskylady says:

    I love to see Sauli having success. I think he has the same likeability qualities that Adam has, and remember the interviews he did for that fashion show and others. He comes across as so genuine and a good listener.

    Loooooooovvveee Adam in studio with Nile and Avicii!!! Nile is having a renassaince, Avicii is a WW phenomenon, and Nile seems determined to get Adam his due. Even if Adam wants to go more rock, he can do ANYTHING and mix it up however he wants. What other male vocalist can do it? Try to imagine Bruno, Robin Thicke, Timberlake singing WWTLF or TSMGO…..

  34. Calgary says:

    Just wanted to clarify TLKC‘s comment on our skating show Battle of the Blades. It was actually hugely popular – some of the highest ratings on TV – and was not cancelled but put on ice (hehe) after three seasons because of budget issues.
    It will be back again this fall season. Works more or less the same as AI – there are 2 regular judges (skaters) and a weekly guest judge (also someone involved with skating, could be a commentator); watchers vote for 2 hours after the episode. If you are a hockey or figure skating fan it is really fun to watch – especially to see the hockey players learn some of the more complicated figure skating steps.
    AL related – Kurt Browning (World Champion) is one of the emcees and he has skated to Adam’s Feelin Good.
    I will be an avid fan again, as it is a pretty neat reality show.

  42. mmm222 says:

    I recently returned from my latest summer trip, camping and hiking in the mountains in northern California with my husband. Nothing cleanses my soul better than the combination of strenuous exercise and gorgeous mountain scenery. I’ve been trying to catch up on all things Adam. I’m happy to see that the musical collaboration and love fest between Nile Rodgers and Adam is continuing. But as a big Glee fan, I am most excited about Adam’s role in Glee. The details about his role are leaking painfully slowly, but I really like what I hear. He was so funny as a prima donna in the Vh1 Diva sketches. I think he’ll be marvelous in NYC playing Kurt’s nemesis. So when is Adam’s first episode on Glee? Apparently, to my knowledge, that’s still a state secret. Another plus that I’m looking forward to is that all of Adam’s Glee recordings will be available on I-tunes each week. My car and I will be very happy.

  43. asifclueless says:

    It seems like I’m alone here .. talking to myself.
    Anyway … I’ll talk to myself and then I’ll go get busy with my RL.

    A week ago I took a little break from the internet after hosting a string of house guests. And now I’m getting the house ready for my daughter. She is coming back from South Africa. We will be busy catching up and figuring out what she’ll do with her next chapter of her life. She finished her job in Korea and has travelled for 3 months. Now she’ll be looking for a job because it’s quite late now to go back to school for her Masters’.
    Right now she’s not sure what to do. I’ll be with her through this uncertain time. That means I’ll have less time here. But I’ll lurk and post as much as I can.

    Have a wonderful day ALL’ers!!! Heart

    Enjoy this … my all time favourite video.

  49. aely says:

    Wonder if that was who got the song? It is from 2010 according to the link. It means “together with you” loosely translated it seems. Notice a couple are for Universal Music but Kobalt isn’t listed so it may be for others. Interesting though.
