HDMI and PC inputs do not work on my 37AV502R LCD TV

HDMI inputs and PC inputs do not work consistently
my Apple TV (HDMI) and computers 2 on HDMI, 1 on PC, display just fine n the TV but after a while the TV goes blank,
the time is not consistent sometime a few minutes, sometimes a few hours,
but every time, after the TV goes blank there is nothing I can do, the TV just stays blank, if I unplug and turn back on the TV displays the image for a split second and goes bank again,
I thought it might be an overheating thing, however sometimes the PC input will stop working but the HDMI input (either one) will work fine,
has anyone else had this issue?
Thanks

I'm having the same issue.  As soon as I connect it to VGA or HDMI, it goes into a cycle of flashing on-and-off.  A guy on youtube had the same problem (posted a video identical to my problem) and reportedly fixed it with a firmware update.  
The problem: the US website doesn't have a firmware download.  The canadian website does, but the update is from 4/2009, and the manufactured date on the back of my TV is 5/2009.  (I also tried the update, but it didn't fix the problem).
When I call Toshiba to ask about the firmware update, after they confirm I am out of warranty, their automated system keeps hanging up on me.  So frustrating.

  • HT4108 I'm trying to connect my iPad to my tv so that I can mirror whatever is on my iPad. I want to stream movies online and watch on the tv. I have the digital av adapter and an hdmi cable but it's not working. Any tips ?

    If this is an iPad 1, it won't mirror, but it will still output video from the 30 Pin dock connector.
    If your new TV has a conventional VGA in and stereo inputs you can try this connector.

    I used to stream video from both Netflix and YouTube and from my Mac using iTunes sharing through my iPad then with this connector plug into my iPad and TV.
    It won't be high resolution, but it will get you picture from iPad to TV.
    Good Luck.

  • My aux input does not work. When i put in my headphones my mac does not respond, and my speakers just continues as normal. What to do?

    My aux input does not work. When i put in my headphones my mac does not respond, and my speakers just continues as normal. What to do?

    I had the same issue. Initially i thought i need to take it to apple for replacing the aux port. But luckily I was able to fix it by resetting the PRAM . To reset the PRAM
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Immediately press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.Continue holding the keys down until the computer restarts, and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Release the keys.
    Resetting PRAM may change some system settings and preferences. Use System Preferences to restore your settings.
    You can try this before you take to apple store. It may work if you are lucky. Good luck

  • In my macbook pro hdmi, usb & SD card reader not working

    In my macbook pro hdmi, usb & sc card reader not working.
    i have tried the SRM reset done, till not working started.
    Could you please resolve this problem,

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Simply take it to an Apple Store or reseller if it's in warranty. Your Mac will be repaired or replaced for free because it looks a hardware problem rather than a software issue.
    If it's not in warranty, hold Command and R keys while your MacBook is starting up, and reinstall OS X. If it doesn't work, you can't do much more to solve the problem

  • I downloaded mountain lion and my audio does not work

    I Downloaded mountain lion and my audio input does not work. I am tryig to use it with Articulate.
    I rebooted twice, I ahve taken out the external mic
    I have looked in Utilities and see if the setting are muted but all ok
    I have looked in Activity monitor
    Please help
    Brett

    Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
    1. If anything is plugged into the audio-out (headphone) port, unplug it.
    2. From the menu bar, select
     ▹ System Preferences ▹ Sound ▹ Output
    Check the settings. The internal speakers should be selected as the output device, the Mute box should not be checked, and the volume slider should be at least halfway to the right.
    3. You may need to darken the room for this step. Look inside the headphone port. If a red light is coming from the port, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a headphone mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
    4. Boot in safe mode by holding down the shift key at the startup chime. It will take much longer than usual. You don't have to log in; just reboot as usual (without holding any keys) when the login screen appears. (Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode.)
    5. Reset the NVRAM.
    6. Reset the SMC.
    7. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to bare metal from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present.
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

  • Optical digital audio input does not work

    Hi all,
    I am trying to record some of my old DCC cassettes onto my imac, however, for some reason the optical digital input does not work.
    I have searched everywhere, tried all settings in audio/midi setup.
    I did notice that when I connect the digital cable to the output, the build in audio automatically recognizes it, and switches to 'digital output'.
    Analog input does work fine. I am running a 3.06 GHz intel core 2 duo with mac os 10.6.8. Digital cables are fine too (can play on my receiver).
    Thanks for your help,
    Wouter

    I share your frustration. I record audio tracks into logic using digital optical recording desks.
    I have a phone call appointment with apple tomorrow and will be happy to share any fixes if they find any.

  • A540 How do I switch between HDMI and PC inputs?

    When I have an HDMI source plugged into the A540, I haven't been able to figure out how to switch between HDMI and PC inputs. How is this accomplished?

    You can browse the other store but unless you have a credit card and billing address in the other country you will not be able to purchase.
    All prices are in the local currency of that country that you are browsing.

    If you restored to factory settings/new iPod and still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem.

  • TA44551 My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work.

    My 1-year ipod nano locked up and would not start overnight. The on/off button will not work and stopped holding charge. No water damage, no fall, nothing unusual. I restored it (twice) but it will still not hold charge and on/off does not work. I tried to restore it again and charged it in three different locations with different cables. etc but nothing. Suggestions?

    - After charging for 1/2 hour or so, does iTunes see the iPod?  If yes, restore the iPod from backup.
    - If no, se if placing the iPod in recovery mode will make it visible so you can restore the iPod.  For recovery mode see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

    Hi
    Currently, iMatch is turned off on my computer, as I do not want to upload any more songs. If I turn it on, will it upload all songs that are currently in my library? Is there another way that deleting them one by one?
    You must enable iTunes Match on the new computer. The best way to accomplish what you want to do is to create a new, empty library by launching iTunes while holding down the Option key (Shift on Windows) and choosing "new library." Do not let iTunes scan for new content, but do enable iTunes Match on the empty library. Once the scan is finished you may delete tracks from the cloud. When you are done switch back to the main iTunes library.

  • Please is an emergenci!!! I put my iPhone 5 to charge and the cable is not working I tried in other pluggers in the house but nothing I don't know what's wrong and I don't have any more battery

    Hey I plug my iPhone 5 and the charger is not working and I'm freaking out!!! It never hasn't happened and I just have in this moment 4% I all ready tried on pther pluggers on the house and is the charges that doesn't work. What should I do?

    @whimsei,
    Hello and thank you for posting back.  What it sounds like is the cable that connects to the screen from the motherboard has either come loose or has a issue after the fall.
    To fix this it would have to be opened up and the connections checked.  If there is an issue with the cable then it would have to be replaced.  This will require either you opening up the system yourself and checking the connections and tha cable or sending it in for repair.

  • I bought an IPAD air from state and the screen is not working correctly and right now i'm in Egypt ,can i send my ipad to service in Egypt and the warranty will work in Egypt or what?

    i bought an IPAD air (32 gb wifi only) from USA just one month ago and the screen is not working correctly(picture attached) and right now i'm in Egypt ,can i send my ipad to service in Egypt and the warranty will work in Egypt or what?

    Have you tried a soft-reset to see if that fixes it ? You might be able to get warranty service in Egypt for your iPad, but the warranty includes :
    IMPORTANT RESTRICTION FOR iPHONE AND iPAD SERVICE.
    Apple may restrict warranty service for iPhone and iPad to the country where Apple or its Authorized Distributors originally sold the device.
    As it's wifi-only you should have a better chance of it being serviced under warranty, but there are no guarantees, it might depend upon the repairer.
