Anyone still using the Silver box with a Non-BT Ro...

My setup has been working fine since the beginning of Vision.. and this afternoon BT applied an update to the silver box, which seems to have finally borked my connection without using a HH..
I am aware of the recent thread regarding this after the update with the triangles boot logo... however this appears to be a slightly different variation of the problem.. after the triangle boot logo update I could still use the box as normal and everything worked (I have the box in a DMZ outside my ipcop firewall) - I like to think I have some idea what im doing..
Now though.. it actively appears to be attempting to communicate with the HH.. I get a new screen on boot.. where it ticks off 2 things.. Vision+ Box Startup (which gets a tick) and Communicating with BT Home Hub (a cross), the box then dumps me out to a newer looking connection failure screen.
If I wireshark the comms.. it still pulls it's ip from my DHCP server as expected and communicates using it (its pingable on that IP).. but then tries to go off and ping something that doesnt exist.. which I assume it is expecting the HH to answer.. 
Before I cancel my service (I have a black hub but as its unfit for purpose I wont be using it), can anyone confirm if this is still working for them (i.e silver box and a non homehub connection)
Cheers,
Sam

  • Has anyone successfully used the Zoom R16 with Audition?

    I’ve tried just about everything, but can’t seem to get Audition to run with the Zoom R16.  As noted in a recent post, I updated both the Zoom R16 firmware and widows driver, but that doesn’t seem to make the 2 work harmoniously. 
    Has anyone had success getting the 2 to work together?  If so, what’s the trick?!
    Thanks in advance

    I'm intrigued - what is actually disharmonious?

  • HT1695 Anyone else having issues with not being able to get wifi on their iPhone 4S? I can't even switch the wifi button to try and connect to my wifi at home but my iPad still uses the wifi just fine.

    I can't even switch the wifi button to try and connect to my wifi at home but my iPad still uses the wifi just fine.

    Thank you, I am trying to last option now. Resetting my network settings and if that still doesn't work ill have to go in to the apple store. Hopefully I won't need a new phone because I'm already at my limit with replacements on my AppleCare even though the issue with the phones 3 out of 4 times wasn't my fault and I can't afford to buy another phone.

  • Anyone else have the black box of death with codes on your screen? (DVR)

    I've manually reset and still get this black box with codes on my TV sceen. It blocks out 90% of the screen.  I've also tried the online reset and they "cannot process" my request at this time!   The code is <00815BAC> [DCE2].  It's definitely DVR-related - my non-DVR TVs work fine.
    Anyone have any ideas what the problem is?  (thanks)

    Hello,
    First, make sure that you have the latest Firmware updates installed. Refer to the article at:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86117
    This will list all the available firmware updates for each machine.
    If you already have the latest firmware update installed, and are still having this problem, then I would suspect bad memory first.
    Try removing any expanded memory you have installed (leaving the factory memory installed) and see what happens.
    There were a lot of marginal memory modules sold before OS X was released.
    Many of these modules would work perfectly fine, and then fail completely once you installed (or tried to install) OS X 10.0
    This was a huge issue back then. Many people discovered that their memory modules were just slightly out of spec, and needed to be replaced with proper modules that were produced exactly to spec.
    Perhaps this is what is going on with your system.
    Since you have been using 9.2 on that machine, your expanded memory (if you have any) may be slightly out of spec, but was not noticed by OS 9.2.
    Hope this helps.

  • Has anyone figured a way to use the Magic Trackpad with Windows 7 on a partitioned disc using Bootcamp?

    Has anyone figured a way to use the magic trackpad with Windows 7 on a partitioned disc using Bootcamp?

    Yes. After Windows/Bootcamp discovers  your bluetooth device (Magic Trackpad or Mouse, be sure to make it discoverable), right click, with your wired mouse, of course, on the icon and select Properties.
    Then check the mouse drivers box and your device should work. (I located this solution on another thread)
    It works for both the Magic Mouse and Magic Trackpad.
    Must admit, the solution was not intuitive within the Windows environment. But we all must remember. It IS Windows, after all.
    Another thing. Keep in mind that the gestures on these devices that work just dandy in OSX do not carry over into Windows.
    It's Windows.

  • Hi my partner used my email address and iTunes account to set up his iPhone and now both our phones have merged! Does anyone know how to separate these? Can he still use our iTunes account with a different Id or email! Please help!!

    HI my partner used my apple id and email address when setting up his iPhone so when he turned on iCloud our phones merged!! How do we undo this? Can he still use my iTunes account with a different Id and can he change the email on his phone without losing information? Also iPad is linked too, the family uses this and I would like to keep my phone separate! At the moment nothing is sacred! Please help! We are not very good with computers!!

    Several things here so let me attempt to clarify.
    For iCloud the reason the contacts where removed from he other device is because you updated your contacts, in this case deleted them, and then iCloud updated the other device to match. By deleting the iCloud account on the device it will stop the device from using that iCloud account and therefore nothing will change on the other device. By using a seperate Apple ID you can still use the features of iCloud, Find My iPhone comes to mind, without your content (contacts, message etc.) merging with the other device
    For iTunes, you cannot use two Apple IDs for one account however if you use the same account iTunes on your computer will keep the content on each device seperate very nicely. You can also configure the settings for iTunes and the App store on each device to keep the content from automatically downloading to the other device. What I meant by share apps and music is this. What happens if you find a game, lets say Minecraft, that you really like and it cost, as Mincraft cost, $6.99USD. You buy it and play for a while and then you realize that your husband really likes the game as well. If you both use the same Apple ID for iTunes he can download the $7.00ish game to his device at no additional charge. If you use seperate Apple IDs for iTunes well... it look like he will also be paying for the game to have it on his account. Same goes for Music and Movies
    I hope that clears things up. Let me know if you have anymore question.

  • I share a photo stream with a family member. Is there a way to make it so we have separate photo stream but still use the same apple id?

    i share a photo stream with a family member. Is there a way to make it so we have separate photo stream but still use the same apple id?

    You'll want a separate iCloud account for each user in addition to the main Apple ID used for purchases.
    Let's say you have a family of four (husband, wife, and two children). Here is what you will need:
    Main Apple ID for shared purchases in Tunes (everybody will be using this)
    iCloud (Apple ID) account for husband
    iCloud (Apple ID) account for wife
    iCloud (Apple ID) account for child 1
    iCloud (Apple ID) account for child 2
    Yes, you can have both an Apple ID and iCloud account setup on the same device. On each iOS device, setup the main Apple ID account for the following services:
    iCloud (Photo Stream and Backup are the only items selected here).
    Music Home Sharing
    Video Home Sharing
    Photo Stream
    Additionally, on each iOS device, add a new iCloud account (Under Mail, Contacts, Calendar) that is unique to each user for the following services:
    Mail (if using @me.com)
    Contacts
    Calendars
    Reminders
    Bookmarks
    Notes
    Find My iPhone
    Messages
    Find Friends
    FaceTime
    On your individual Macs (or Mac accounts), use the main Apple ID in iTunes. Then, use the unique iCloud account in/for iCloud.
    Now that everbody is using separate iCloud accounts for your contacts, calendars, and other things, it will be all be kept separate.
    The only thing that is now 'shared' would be iTunes content (apps and other purchases), backups via iCloud (if enabled), and Photo Stream (if enabled).

  • TS1741 I have lost the original remote for my Apple TV. I went to install it at my fiancés house, and cannot use the remote app on my ipad or iPhone. Can I still control the Apple TV with the apps?

    I have lost the original remote for my Apple TV. I went to install it at my fiancés house, and cannot use the remote app on my ipad or iPhone. Can I still control the Apple TV with the apps?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Your Apple TV may have become paired with another remote. Hold the remote close to and pointed at the Apple TV, hold down the menu and Rewind buttons together for 6 seconds or until you see a broken chain icon on screen.

    It sounds like your phone is in recovery mode, which means it needs to be restored through iTunes on your computer in order to get out of it.

    Has anyone gone to Europe from the US and used the IPAD charger with only a plug adapter?  I want to be sure I won't burn up my IPAD.

    Just using an adapter will be fine.  The charger can handle to 220V just as well as the 110V

  • Can you set up a new I Tunes account, but still use the same email address, as having problems with it keep telling me it has been disabled, no matter what I do to chnage the passwords, I haven't used the account since 2010?

    can you set up a new I Tunes account, but still use the same email address, as having problems with it keep telling me it has been disabled, no matter what I do to change the passwords, I haven't used the account since 2010?

    Hi eddinchina,
    You should have no need to use the Old Sync account.
    As long as device or devices are Firefox 29 or later (They should all be Firefox 30 now) you should use the New Sync.
    You may use the same email address with both accounts.

  • Has anyone successfully used the Intuit Quicken compatible with Lion upgrade for investment tracking?

    Has anyone successfully used the Intuit Quicken compatible with Lion upgrade for investment tracking?

    Although I gave up investment tracking for personal reasons (I had used Quicken Deluxe 2002 for many years for that reason), my understanding is that the new Quicken 2007 for Lion/Mt. Lion is completely the same feature wise as Quicken 2007 for PPC.  It will run on Snow Leopard, too.
    For $15, why not download it and just try it and LET US KNOW!
