IDevices Not Play Nice Together

I have an iPhone 4S, iPad 2, and a new (bought today) Apple TV.
I'm having trouble getting them to work with one another.
The iPhone & iPad arenot showing up in iTunes (Windows) even though I've attached me via the cable and check Sync Wirelessly.
The AppleTV is not showing up either in iTunes - Home Share is enabled on both iTunes (Windows) and the Apple TV. (as well as the iPhone and iPad)
I can get the AppleTV to connect to the iPad, but not the iPhone. AirPlay Mirror is not available via the iPad however.
I've gone through all of the Knowledge Base solutions I can find, and still unable to resolve any of the issues.
I'm out of ideas. Any Help giving is greatly appreciated.
Thank you,

OK, I figured it out... I too have a dv6000 with Vista and I have been trying to fix this terrible itunes video playback thing and this is what I found. For whatever reason the NVidia driver in the dv series doesn't play nice with Vista. They say that they are looking into it but have no response other than that. Somehow the data from the hard drive isn't fast enough. So, reading this I figured that if that REALLY is the problem that I could use a external drive and have the videos come from there, and Voila!! It works like a charm, no skipping, no stalling, no more blue screens. I hope this is helpful, I know what a pain this can be.
Let me know if this works for everyone else.

  • MacBook Pro and 27" Display not playing nice together

    I'm having a rather strange problem with my Early 2011 MacBook Pro and my 27" Apple Display (Mini-Display port). They don't want to play nice together. The display will randomly/intermittently disconnect and turn black, then reconnect, sometimes after a second or so, but sometimes not for a good 10 seconds or more.
    - My MBP works fine on other monitors (Thunderbolt 27", 24" LG via DVI adaptor).
    - My wife's MBP works fine on this monitor.
    - Had a tech look at the monitor, his MacBook works on it fine too.
    - The combination of my MBP and this 27" Apple Display gives you the result shown in the video.
    It happens quite frequently -- often enough to make working on this combination unbearable. But I have no clue as to what's going on here.
    In "System Information" under "Graphics / Displays", the display not show up as connected to either the PCIe or Built-In graphics adapter when the 27" has turned black. When the screen is on, it shows up.
    Here's a YouTube video of the symptoms.

    I'm stumped. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Your video shows the MacBook Pro display turning blue for a few seconds, several different times. This is an acknowledgement that a display is coming (or going).
    Unencumbered by anything sensible, my diagnosis would be that you have a loose connection.
    Mini DisplayPort cables can be diabolical. When inserting, you must make certain that essentially ALL of the metal end disappears inside the computer jack.

  • Vista & iTunes Do Not Play Nice Together

    I was recently forced to upgrade to Vista due to a computer crash. I loaded iTunes ver.7.1.1.5 (latest) and all my music etc. from my backup drive. Everything worked fine until i tried to sync my 5G 80gig video iPod. Every time I connect it Vista blue screens and I have to reboot both. I've tried everything i can think of and I've searched forums all over the globe and everybody says the same thing, 'yep, it's a problem, but there is no fix'. I've heard that there is supposed to be an iPod update coming out, but I don't see how that will help me because as soon as I dock Vista crashes....ARGHHH!!! This is ridiculous. Both Microsoft and Apple had to know that this was a problem so why would they release Vista when it doesn't work with the largest digital music service in the world. In the mean time my iPod is empty and I'm developing a severe case of road rage having to listen to the jerks on the radio. Oh but wait, there’s more! The video playback through iTunes (and QuickTime) is unwatchable. It just freeze frames while the sound runs perfectly so now I am unable to watch the season finale of Heros. Okay, enough poor me. Does anybody know anything about either of these problems? I know I'm not alone. Any advice or just moral support would be great. I should have bought a Zune. Oh god I didn't just say that....that's blasphemy.

  • Linksys WRTU54G-TM and Trendnet tew-631brp not playing nice together, HELP

    Ok so, since getting the tmobile@home service I have been having nothing but issues with my setup.
    My current config setup includes the Comcast Cable modem <to WAN port of> Trendnet tew-631brp <LAN to WAN port of> Linkysy WRTU54G-TM and the WRT set to bridged mode. WRT firewall disabled, Wifi Disabled, Main router is the Trendnet with Wifi-N enabled. No machines are hard wired to my routers, I use only the Wifi-N from my trendnet.
    Now the internet works as expected, except when you go to use the VOIP phone. When you pick it up, the net connection drops out and the Trendnet router reboots.
    I have tried making the WRT the main router and having the Trendnet be the secondary, I've turned firewalls off, I've added them each router to the DMZ and nothing nothing nothing will fix this issue. Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?

    I just tried adding the WRT as the main router and the 631 as the secondary router, and it still won't work. Would the NAT cause an issue when it's set-up this way as well? This is so confusing.

  • Time Machine & Apple Remote Desktop don't play nice together

    Hi there. Running 10.5.4 Server on a headless Mac Pro 8-core Xeon.
    Thought i'd see how well time machine works as an incremental backup solution for my server. I use ARD to access the server. When i enter time machine using ARD i get some buggy glitchy version of time machine with no timeline or clear indication of where the controls are. Utterly unusable.
    Any tips as to how to get these two magical pieces of software to play nice together?

    When attempting to access Time Machine on a headless Mac over Apple Remote Desktop, a common complaint is that the GUI (graphical user interface) does not appear, though it does function if you guess where the buttons are.
    To force the screen to redraw, just drag any file/folder from your local desktop into the Remote Desktop window, as if you were copying the file to the remote machine. You don't have to release the icon, but the screen should redraw with the Time Machine controls now visible and functional. Not all of the visual effects work, but you can browse past archives and perform restores with ease.

    Ahhhh -- so that's what's going on!
    I have a Dual G5 Desktop that I'm connecting to, and it has worked perfectly -- except tonight.
    I added about 1.6GB of data, and Time Machine has been spinning away!
    Has anyone suggested how to get around this?

  • 4th Gen Photo iPod/Windows Vista 64 bit Home/iTunes not playing nice

    I have a fourth generation photo ipod. I was using it fine and it was syncing properly on my computer using XP Professional edition.
    I just bought a new computer with 64 bit Windows Vista Home Premium on it. So I installed itunes and was prepared to go through the process of clearing the ipod and resyncing it with my new computer. In this process, I encounted a lot of errors. And in addition, it would error-out just in the restore process.
    Eventually I got it to restore on the Vista computer. And now the problem I am having is that about ten songs into syncing my music library, it iTunes and my computer freeze up.
    To isolate the problem, I plugged my ipod back into my XP computer and it works fine and syncs the entire library, so I know its not the ipod. Its a problem with iTunes and Vista together when an ipod is being connected.
    Does anyone have insight on this problem or possible fixes?

    I know Vista x64 is picky about drivers. It seems there is a 64 bit installer for iTunes so I am assuming you are using that?
    "64-bit editions of Windows Vista or later require the iTunes 8 64-bit installer "
    As far as the iPod itself, maybe it also needs the 64 bit driver and perhaps the x64 iTunes will take care of that. If it does change the driver, it may not be useable in the XP senario.

  • Gmail & Apple Mail not playing nice via IMAP

    Would like to get feedback from other users who are Gmail subscribers and use Apple Mail as their main application.
    I have had good success with ML Apple Mail...Snow Leopard I preferred Sparrow.  Until recently I had no issues and everything was playing nicely.  However, in the last 2 or so weeks I have noticed odd behaviors between the two platforms.  What I noticed first was that mail that was read on my phone was still showing unread in Apple Mail.  A re-sync didn't solve it but a quit and restart of Mail did.  Hmmm.  Now I also notice that sometimes in deleting mail my whol folder for my Gmail account would show nothing and a restart of the program would fix that.
    Yes, I did do quite a bit of searching on the internet.  I had deleted the account and restablished it...no fix...deleted library folder containing the mail data so it would rebuild...no fix.  So I thought maybe it was an issue with IMAP and Google.  I'm an apps user so I actually got a response from Google.  They have no fix other than telling me to use Thunderbird as "Due to the way in which Apple Mail is coded, we don't officialy support Apple Mail 5 or 6 as IMAP clients."  Huh?  Geez, I didn't have any issues before.
    Oh, and yes, I have read How To's on setting up Apple Mail with Gmail.  Before using Sparrow on SL, I had used Apple Mail for quite some time.  So not new to using it with Gmail.
    So I am wondering what others are experiencing and any fixes they might have if similar.  I don't like using the web interface and have gotten use to the flow of ML Apple Mail and like it.  I am trying Postbox and will also try Thunderbird (though the lack of program advancement is a bit of a negative).
    Thanks for any input.
    Mike

    I noticed some views but no suggestions.  Is anyone else experiencing the issue of read Emails on phone still showing unread in Apple Mail?

  • Chromium and sound don't play nice together

    Arch64, Chromium from the repos.
    Long story short, if I play a YouTube video or anything similar, suddenly I can't play ANY sounds elsewhere until I close the browser down again.
    Example: listening to music via MPD. I open a YouTube video. It doesn't play. I stop my music and watch the video. Once the video's done, I can't play any music until I shut down Chromium.

    Working fine here - mpg123 playing a tune, youtube (flash, not html5) in chromium.
    IIRC, this is because the flash plugin defaults to 'old' OSS i.e. using alsa oss emulation. Unload and blacklist the snd-*-oss modules and try again.
    This works for me. If I don't have these modules blacklisted then I am able to reproduce the same problem as OP has. With the modules blacklisted everything works as it should.

  • Garageband 10 and Digidesign 002 will not play nice...Please help!

    Back Story:
    I have a 2008 iMac with upgraded RAM.  It has been working perfectly, er, IS working perfectly.  No need to upgrade yet.  I am running Mountain Lion, and ProTools 8 through a Digidesign 002rack.  Everything is fat and happy.
    One day a couple of months ago...I was happily plunking away doing whatever, and I get the prompt to upgrade to mavericks.  I think to myself, this should be a good way to make sure my 5 year old computer looks and feels brand new.  I run down the list o software I use thinking if there will be any compatibility issues...itunes, safari, firefox, word, excel...hmm, should be fine.  so I upgrade.
    Mavericks is great!  Looks cool, has a few new features to sync with my ipad and iphone.  Life is good.
    I wake up in the middle of the night with a great song idea (usually the good stuff comes to me while I'm sleeping).  I fire up the rig and...wait what?  ProTools won't launch.  I do a quick google and find that PT will not yet work with Mavericks.  Ok, that's fine, I can wait until they fix that.
    Few weeks later, I hear they've fixed it!  Woohoo!  Oh, hmm, Avid has only fixed it for the newest version of ProTools, PT11.  That's $600.  Ok, well, I have a decent job, I take great pride in my music, and it makes me happy...so...ok, I'll drop the 6 bills and upgrade to the new version of PT.
    When on the Digi site, looking at compatibility...I see that my 2008 iMac with the intel core 2 duo processor will not work with PT11.
    Hmm.  Ok, now what?  Downgrade back to Mountain Lion?  Apple won't let you do that, and I do not have a time machine backup.
    Last ditch attempt...I try to install my Snow Leopard operating system from a disc that I still have.  Nope.  Installer not compatible.
    Argh.  So now I'm saving for a new computer, so I can run the new version of ProTools...replacing a perfectly working machine for absolutely no reason.  This is frustrating.  Until I save the money (it probably makes sense at this point to wait until the newest 2014 iMac comes out in the fall...therefore futureproofing myself as much as possible), I figure I'm stuck with Garageband until then.  So I download the newest version of GB, GB10 from the app store.
    I fire up the 002, go to the preferences in GB and select the 002 for input/output, plug in the guitar and...nothing.  no sound, no recognition of input.  As a test, I throw in a drum loop, and no sound for output either.
    I go into audio/midi utility, 002 is selected.  My Digi core audio manager says the 002 is connected.  If I change the GB preferences to "built in output," the drum loop comes through loud and clear.
    I am so totally out of ideas, and so completely frustrated at my whole situation, that I am turning to the general public to help me for the first time ever.  I am willing to try anything, in any configuration, to make my freakin' guitar plug into my freakin' computer and record whatever semblence of notes I am calling a song.
    This should not be too much to ask given the thousands of dollars worth of equipment I have sitting on my desk.
    AAAAARRRRRGGHHH!!!   Please Help!

  • PixelsPerPx does not play nice with customizing the Toolbar.

    I have a MacBook Pro and the screen has a very high number of pixels per cm^2. The screen is great, but the high pixel density often makes website text very small and hard to read.
    So, I used about:config to edit <layout.css.devPixelsPerPx>. Setting it to 1.1 or 1.2 "dumbs down" the resolution, but it makes things readable again. This is a great option - please consider adding it to Preferences or otherwise making it easy to use.
    Here is the problem: when I try to customize my toolbar (View > Toolbars > Customize), Firefox crashes.
    If I reset <layout.css.devPixelsPerPx> to 1.0, then I can customize my toolbar with no crashing. Apparently the PixelsPerPx option seriously conflicts with View > Toolbars > Customize.

  • RDP and Java not playing well together

    I have a Windows 8.1 Pro machine set up for RDP that connects to a field device network. The field network is not accessible from the Internet, so the only method I have to connect to the field devices is RDP through the machine. The devices use
    Java for their GUI. When I log onto one of the devices in the field via RDP, the amount of memory Java uses goes up and stays up. Every time I log onto a field device, the memory usage goes up and stays up to the point if I hit 25 or so field devices, I get
    an Out of Memory error and Java shuts down the main application running on the machine. However, if I log onto the devices directly from the machine, not using RDP, the amount of memory Java uses doesn't go up. The machine has 6Gb of RAM, rebooting it is the
    only way to clear out the memory, which gets it back down to a more normal 14%. 
    Any ideas? 

    Hi,
    What is the result if we connect to a normal Windows system via RDP? We should first find out whether this is a RDP side issue or a JAVA issue.
    And for high memory issue, we have a tool named RAMMap to view the detailed memory usage

  • PS4 and Cintiq not playing well together

    This problem relates to the Cintiq 21 UX & Photoshop CS4 ONLY!
    I have a dual monitor setup: Cintiq 21 & NEC 19 LCD Opticlear Miltisync 90GX2. Both monitors are driven by separate ATI Radeon HD2600XT cards with 512MB video RAM. The system CPU is an AMD Athlon 64x2 Dual core 6000+ chip. I have loaded what I believe to be the most current drivers from this web site.
    Start PS4 on the Cintiq side; load ANY image; get image with 6 rectangles overlaid and each rectangle is divided diagonally in half from URHC to LLHC. Lower half is good image; upper hald is either a solid color, grossly pixellated, or gibberish. Drag the image a bit and as long as it is being dragged it is a perfect image; stop dragging and it returns to the image with 6 rectangles. Drag across to the NEC monitor and image is sharp and clear while dragging but goes transparent upon release of mouse.
    Start PS4 on the NEC side and all is as advertised. Drag only the image over to Cintiq and it is still good. Now drag PS4 over to the Cintiq side and all is still good. Open another image on the Cintiq side and problem repeats.
    This problem is fully repeatable, does not happen with any other software, and renders PS4 virtually useless. PS3 works as advertised and always has.  I've done 4 installs of CS4 to see if it was the problem including a thorough registry cleaning between installs. Situation is constant across installs. Oddly, Bridge does not exhibit the problem.  I'm sending to Wacom as well.  I provided 2 jpgs of what the images look like.
    Any and all advice greatly appreciated
    dave

    Both monitors use the DVI connection  on the respective cards, so no,
    not at this time. Perhaps if I can locate an adapter I may be able to do
    so. However, Photoshop CS3 has absolutely no problems with this set up
    nor does Bridge CS4, only Photoshop. As Bridge loads with Photoshop and
    is not a separate install, I'm thinking that while it could have
    something to do with the cards/driver, there must be something more.
    However, I've been wrong before  . . . . .

  • After Effects CC and Windows 8 not playing well together.  How can I fix this?

    I thought the problem was a specific project file, but then it happened during another, and then another that I was building without any funky assets.  After Effects suddenly ceases to respond, it flickers uncontrollably while Windows 8 Explorer becomes semi-unresponsive as well.  When AE becomes responsive again, the same thing happens when I go to make another edit or two.
    Troubleshooting: What I noticed is when I go to the Task Manager to kill Explorer, AE responds again.  Until I go to make another few edits at least, where it then starts to flicker uncontrollably again.  Does anybody else have this problem?  This is really putting a kink in my workflow.

  • Safari and 1passwords are not playing well together since updates??

    Safari will not allow me to enter websites with 1passwords.  When I input the password it reverts back to enter you pasword.  I have updated to all of the newest versions and Safari is still not working.  I am having no issues with Firefox.  Been exchanging emails with Agilebits and have sent them two diagnostic reports, still no one has an answer??  Can anyone help? 

    Some people are having some problems although some fixed it with the following solution.
    Go here https://agilebits.com/extensions/mac/index.html
    Check the checkbox "Allow beta extensions"
    and download the recent version of 1password for Safari.
    Clean Up & Reset Safari by doing the following:
    Many times corrupt application resources are the reason for an application's slow performance. Safari has a variety of these, and Apple has conveniently enabled quick resetting of these resources through the "Reset Safari..." option in the "Safari" menu. Despite this, some people may wish to still reset Safari's resources manually. To do this, Quit Safati and locate and remove the files in the following folders:
    /username/Library/Cookies/
    /username/Library/Caches/com.apple.Safari/
    /username/Library/Caches/Metadata/Safari/
    Then remove the following from the /username/Library/Safari/ folder:
    Downloads.plist
    Form Values
    History.plist
    HistoryIndex.sk
    LastSession.plist
    LocalStorage (folder)
    TopSites.plist
    WebpageIcons.db
    Delete caches
    Safari enables you to remove its cache from the "Reset Safari" option; however, you can use a third-party cache cleaning utility built for your operating system to remove all system caches to clear any faults with them that might be affecting Safari. Several of these utilities are: OnyX
    Get Onyx at: http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/11582/onyx
