Several update related issues but one I can't fix ???

Background: I'm on a PC with Windows XP. Got ATV 2-3yrs ago and use it on a WIRED network. Had the "need to open ports" issue and fixed it. All is good. VERY fast synch speeds and no problems. Love the ATV.....until...intalled latest iTunes update (9.??) 2 weeks ago. ATV no longer in device list. Hours of searching and rebooting and resetting and I finally find the answer is the latest Bonjour has a bug which causes this issue. Uninstalled and reverted to the previous Bonjour. ATV is back but in devices. Because all my content was wiped, have to resync. I only sync a small amount of data to the ATV...1900 songs. Usually takes less than 20 minutes. 36 hours later the end is nowhere in sight so I stop the sync. I made no changes to my network setup. I tested youtube and internet radio connectivity and they are fine. Quite fast actually. I reboot the ATV. No better. I reboot the computer with no improvement. I update the ATV to the latest version, still no luck. (Incidentally, I avoided the new ATV software due to a known issue with FLAC and WAIFF music files. Not sure if this has a fix yet). Factory settings restored and still no luck.
Basically, what could possibly have changed to make a wired ATV unusable when it has been fine for so long? This one really has me stumped.

hmmm... network seems to be ok.. tried all the restores, restart etc, etc.. could you have some corrupted files or a flakey drive that your files are sitting on?
would be really good to see the actual transfer rates of files going to your appleTV and if some files are faster than others.
i had a drive that failed on me but before it did completely it would hang on the corrupted files being transfered.. it would usually crash the appleTV or iTunes in the process.. and your's doesn't seem to be doing that, so maybe it's not the that.
is it possible try to sync files from another drive and see how that goes? or transfer a few portions of what your trying to transfer now and see if you get the same problem (a few different portions so you would be trying to avoid portions with potentially corrupted files on it).. again just a stab in the dark.. you seem to have tried most of the things i would have..

  • I have just updated to Yosemite, but now I can't get the custom shortkeys to work. In Mavericks I had no problem whatsoever, but now even after googeling and restart no solution. Does anyone have the problem? All the other shortcuts work!

    Hi Thomas,
    I can confirm the problem you are hitting. The XML test trace does not get recognized at all, and it defaults to Eclipse's basic Open File behaviour. I am not sure if it's because the format definition is missing, or if it's because something prevents the trace type from being recognized. I will open a bug about it.
    Thanks for identifying this issue!
    In the meantime, if you'd like to experiment with XML analyses, you can also take a look at the example at https://github.com/tracecompass/xml-analysis-example .

  • On Pages 09, my word documents I've been saving it to iCloud, to access anywhere, but I would like to keep my docs organized in files on my finder as usual, and saving to iCloud, I lose my local one.How can I fix it and not desorganize my files?

    It's either in local folders, as it seem you had been doing, or in icloud.  If you go into the mac's Pages and view the icloud files, you can drag on onto another to create a folder.  But you can only have folder one level deep, so you can't organize your files/folders like you can on a mac, using nested folder several levels deep.

  • RRAS issue - only one client can connect?

    Hello, I have set up my server 2012 standard server and set it up as a DC and RRAS server, the VPN works perfectly but only one user can use it, the second user will always get error 800. there are enough IP slots in the LAN and it is correctly assigning
    a new IP address to each new user that connects, but only one can connect at a time without error - I have searched around and couldnt find anything conclusive - is this a licensing or configuration issue?
    Thank you very much for your time and consideration,
    Larry

    Hi Larry,
    As far as I know, it’s not recommended to install RRAS server role on DC, since it would make the DC multi-homed.
    I suggest you install RRAS server role on another server.
    Here is a related blog below for you:

  • HT4623 I updated to ios7 but no longer can I print. How do I fix this problem? HELP,

    I updated to ios7, but now cannot use my printer. How can I solve this problem?

    Hey Miichaelb62,
    I found some basic troubleshooting steps for you to try first:
    Verify that the printer:
    Has power and is turned on. If it has power, turn the printer off and then on again to see if that resolves the issue.
    Is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as the iOS device.
    Has the latest firmware version installed.
    Has paper with enough ink or toner installed.
    Is free of any errors displayed on the printer's control panel.
    If necessary, consult the printer documentation or contact the printer vendor for help with the above steps.Notes:
    AirPrint printers connected to the USB port of the Apple AirPort Base Station or Time Capsules are not supported with AirPrint.
    Some Wi-Fi AirPrint printers can take several minutes to join a Wi-Fi network after being turned on. Ensure that the AirPrint printer is connected to the Wi-Fi network before attempting to print.

  • Officejet 6600 All But One Laptop Can Connect To Wireless Network Printer

    One windows and 2 macs can connect to the wireless printer over the newtwork just fine  but one (Windows 7) will not. HP Print and Scan Doctor can discover the printer from that laptop as "visible"  but repeatedly says " need to install full software" which I've done, and after, it  runs install wizzard reports, the IP address I've entered is wrong, which it's not. Firewalls are off.  I've un and re installed, tried windows add device which can't connect either. I've had this problem before with this laptop but just can't remember how I fixed it. I remember getting to a screen that offered the option of installing over a nework or wireless directly to the printer and over the network fixed it, but I can't remember how I got there. Any ideas as I'm at wits end. Thanks

    Welcome to the forums @Davidchicago ,
    I read through your post about the installation troubles you are having with one of your Windows 7 computers and your Officejet 6600. I am here to let you know what my suggestion is for you!
    There could be a program blocking the installation and causing the problem. I'd recommend a Clean Boot, restarting your PC, disabling your firewall and running through the installation again.
    Hopefully that will get you through the install. Let me know the results!
    Have a great weekend

  • On 1 pc that is partitioned, both identities are using FireFox as their browser, but one identity can see all images on webpages the other can't - how do I fix

    On a pc that is partitioned, both identities are using FireFox as browser. On one ID they can see all images on a website, such as CNN or NYT.com but on the other most of the images (within the story content and advertising images on borders of webpages) are missing. I'm not sure why this is happening, but I need help to fix it.

    If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
    *Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
    *Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
    *Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
    *Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
    If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    Make sure that you do not block third-party images, the permissions.default.image pref should be 1.
    If background images are missing then make sure that you haven't enabled a High Contrast theme in the Windows Accessibility settings and that you allow pages to choose their colors in Firefox.
    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Colors : [X] "Allow pages to choose their own colors, instead of my selections above"
    There are also extensions like Adblock Plus (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images and other content.

  • After Effects CS6: Adjacent text layers overlap by one frame, can't fix it

    Adjacent text layers, which we are using to subtitle bits of video, butt up against each other and in some instances it's fine (the text changes at the correct frame), but in others the text from the first one bleeds by one frame into the second and overlaps. If I shorten the time on the first one by one frame, there is a gap with no text. How can I fix this? The comp is built from the video so the frame rate of the comp is the same for the video file.
    Thanks for any help!
    Glen

    Thanks very much Mylenium for your help - I've scoured the file looking for everything you mention, and there anything fancy at all. I'm using no time-stretching or remapping, simply putting a text layer on top of a video, and moving its in and out points. No blurs or odd keyframes as far as I can tell. Video and comp are both 29.97 framerate (comp created using "New comp from selection").

  • Iv bought a touchpad app for my iPhone 5 to use on my Mac mini, all the functions work accept the zoom one, how can I fix this problem

    Iv bought a touchpad app for my iPhone 5 to use on my Mac mini, all the functions work apart from the zoom one. How can I fix this please

    Iv bought a touchpad app for my iPhone 5 to use on my Mac mini,''
    Considering the app for the iPhone is for iOS, you may have problems using it on the Mac (Mac OS X)
    Two different operating sysems.
    From iTunes for the touchpad app:
    Requirements: Compatible with iPhone, iPod touch, and iPad. Requires iOS 5.1 or later. This app is optimized for iPhone 5.
    From here >  https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/touchpad/id297623931?mt=8

  • HT4461 Is anyone else having difficulties with app updates. The icon on the screen shows that several updates are ready, but nothing shows up on the screen.

    The icon on the screen shows I have several that are ready to update, but when I go to that tab in iTunes, the screen is blank.

    If you go to the App Store and go to the purchased tab you can go through all of your apps.  They will either show open or update. You would have to search through all of them but you can at least still update your apps.

  • Love this tool, but one problem: can't see beach balls on remote machines!

    Hi, I have the lastest OSX and ARD on the machines on our small biz lan, and I have one problem: when controlling or observing other machines I can't see the beach ball when it occurs...making it look like ARD is hung (or something). It's very disconcerting...is there a switch somewhere to make this right? Thx
    coocoo

    I'd be very surprised if ARD is ever able to display the spinning beach ball on the managing Mac.
    A couple of tips that may help:
    1. Set the client computers to display seconds on the clock in the menubar. If the seconds are counting, you at least know that you are receiving visual updates. If you can't access a menu in the hung app, but can still see the seconds counting, you likely have a beach ball.
    2. Run Activity Monitor on the client machine. A quick glance at the process list will show if an app is hung (and how much CPU it's gobbling).
    3. Select "Force Quit" from the Apple menu. This will also show which apps are hung.
    4. Peek into the /Library/Logs/HangReporter/ folder.
    Cheers.
