AppleTV no longer accepts new 3rd party remote

I got a new UVerse remote since the old one went belly-up. I wanted to program the new one with the AppleTV. The AppleTV would not accept input from the remote. I messed with all the remote configs, and deleted one that WAS working for my Harmony remote. It would no longer accept a connection from the Harmony. I wiped the AppleTV back to factory, and it still tells me it cannot get a signal from either the UVerse remote or the Harmony remote.
Whenever I try to program, and click on the "Up" button, the light blinks, and the AppleTV beeps. So, it is clearly getting the signal, even though it says it isn't.
I feel like I am missing something very simple, or one of the most recent updates broke something.

I know how you feel. I have (2) apple TVs. I think I upgraded a couple of weeks ago, Ill check my version tonight. But I get loooooooooooooooooooooong pauses when I go to my "artists" section under music. Its like it locks up for a minute or 2. Then finally list all my artist. I have 20,000 tracks, but Im not streaming.
I agree apple dont release an update unless you know theres its perfectly bug-free version. There just too eager in recieving those movie revenues to care anymore it seems.

Airplay no longer working with 3rd party after upgrading to Maverick.

I updated my MacBook Pro this week and I have noticed that the airplay icon is no longer showing up in iTunes to connect to my Denon Amplifier. The interesting thing is that my old iPad 1 that I have that is still running 5.1.1 can connect and play to the receiver just fine.
Was there an update to the airplay software that would affect 3rd party devices? I was not able to find any new updates for my receiver.

I woke up this morning with the same problem (all was fine last night). Only way to get all my mailbox folders back was to use Time Machine while in Mail, choosing the backup file from previous night and selecting EACH MAILBOX to restore (23 for me). All appears okay so far today (except some of my accessories in the menu bar are gone).
I sure hope an update comes SOON. In anticipation of Mavericks and the new MAIL I switched from Outlook 2011 3 weeks ago transfering 17,000+ files and would hate to back

Our converted eCourses often freeze when launched from our new 3rd party hosted LMS...

We have recently purchased a new externally hosted LMS system (Silkroad's GreenLight) and we have a 3rd party taking our older authorware courses (which are working) and updating/converting them using Adobe Captivate 5.5. Once these are done and uploaded into the LMS system, users are finding sporadic freezing at launch of the converted courses. In some cases we are using a Riverbed solution to compress content so that network performance is not an issue. With the various components involved in this situation. we are having a hard time troubleshooting and narrowing down the problem as it is so inconsistent. I noticed a blog http://helpx.adobe.com/captivate/kb/projects-published-captivate-5-lms.html suggesting a fix and we tried this with one user it worked with another it did not. Our environment consist of XP (and some Win7), Adobe Flash Player 10+, and IE8 or 9. Can anyone tell us what the proposed template fix described in the blog is actually doing? Or if you've experienced this problem and have another fix we could try? Any help is appreciated....Getting desperate. Thanks!

I believe the patches offered in that post were to address an issue that sometimes occurs with Resume Data bookmarking in certain LMSs.
If you are currently using Resume Data bookmarking, try disabling it by checking the box in LMS Customisation dialog to Never Send Resume Data. If that resolves your issue, you at least know what is causing it.
In cases where there are a large number of variables, the only way to diagnose the issue may be to remove as many variables as possible first. Then when you finally get to a stable version that does not misbehave, you then re-introduce the other components to find the one/s that re-introduce the issue.
So, in your case, you may need to look at how your developers are 'converting' the authorware content in Captivate. Make sure they recreate everything using Captivate components, and insert the images via the approved menus etc. I'd also temporarily avoid using this Riverbed compression solution until you have established the cause of your issue. It may be interferring with something.

I changed my itunes password. Ok on my iMac but Appletv won't accept new password

I changed my itunes password. It is ok on my iMac but my Appletv won't accept the new password -- asks over and over.

If the old ID is yours, and if your current ID was created by editing the details of this old ID (rather than being an entirely new ID), go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPad on your iPad, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll. When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iPad when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

AppleTV no longer accepts iTunes library to sync

Hi!
I have an AppleTV (160G) and a PC laptop (XP Pro)running iTunes. The AppleTV worked perfectly out of the box: found my network, found my iTunes, synced my music over about four days (I have about 60G of music). But when I upgraded iTunes to the latest version (7.4.2.4), iTunes was no longer able to see the AppleTV. When I visit the AppleTV source menu, it says “Library not found.”
However, when I use the AppleTV to look for additional iTunes sources, it finds my laptop’s iTunes library just fine. So it can see it as an ancillary source, but no longer as the main source. How do I get them to reconnect? The network is fine, the connection is possible, but somehow my laptop’s iTunes has lost its status as primary library.
I don’t want to just reset everything, because it looks like the AppleTV will erase all the music it’s holding if I switch primary libraries, and frankly, I don’t want to spend another four days recopying content to it just to have it go south again when the next iTunes upgrade comes along.
Can anyone please advise me?
Thank you!

What library does ATV say it's synced to?

New 3rd party battery randomly reports 0%

Works fine most of the time, but occassionally will read 0% when running from battery before going back to it's actual charge. It has had one unexpected shutdown when it's done this. The battery is still in the return window with Amazon, but I'm concerned it may be a problem with the battery connector, as the problem occurs less often on sturdy tables. No warranty, and I've installed new hinges at home from Powerbook Medic, so if it's a loose battery connector, I'm sure I could tighten the screws.

Took out the battery- it had a 1mm wiggle at the connector which the old swollen battery didn't mind- tightened as much as I could and got it down to a .25mm wiggle. Took off the topcase and found a cable that wasn't routed properly... The display power. Only time will tell if these are the issues to cause the shutdown and the 0%, but it's been fine for ten minutes atleast. We'll see over the next couple days I guess.

NEW 3rd party apps - - - web based? More? Ideas?

Hi there,
Those kind people from apple and people from home who have made these applications, I was wondering if they are all web based??
ALSO, what else would we like....hmm, think......
Regards

they are all web based
here is a new directory apple has made of these web apps at the link below
http://www.apple.com/webapps/
as you can see there is a few categories and alot of such apps especially games.what i suggest you do is go thru and find the ones you like and bookmark the web apps that you would use and then make a special folder for the ipod touch and then have it synced to your ipod touch for quick access. thats what i am doing.

New 3rd party app doesn't work on macbook pro

Just purchased "Wild West Quest" at App Store. App does not respond to trackpad. Will not go full page. Force quit only by holding down on button. App Store lists developer website www.anarchyent.com but browser cannot find that url address. Have OS X ver 10.8.5

You can also contact the manufacturer on Facebook, Twitter & Tumblr. Did you try those places also? Did you check for a phone #? Search Google & Bing if you have to!

New 3rd Party Webcam - Mac Mini

I have a Mac Mini, running Snow Leopard. (purchased last year) I recently got an HD 1080p webcam with backlight (Rocketfish) which works really well in Yahoo Messenger. However it is only supported there and does not seem to function via skype or webpages. I also cannot do still captures with it, but I couldn't with my previous webcam either.
Is there a recommended program that will provide the support I am looking for, or do I need something else?
I will try my best to answer any questions.
-C

I can recommend a usb web cam but a warning you won't have it in hd because yahoo only supports it in hd
Try the xbox 360 web cam there about 12.99 used from gamestop they work on all skype yahoo and even ichat

2.3 Update: Problem with AppleTV learning third-party remote

Hello,
I'm trying to set up my third party remote (DirecTV HR21) after updating to 2.3. It all starts well; I go to Settings -> General -> Remotes -> Learn Remote, but I am having an issue when I am making my Apple TV learn the second key (down arrow); I get the error message "apple tv has already learned this button". It's as if the Apple TV thinks the 'up arrow' and the 'down arrow' on my remote are the same key. I tried several times, to no avail.
Anyone else having this issue?

I'm experiencing the same problem with the current DirecTV remote not being able to learn more than the first button prompted to enter (arrow-down). The error message "appletv has already learned this button" appears when attempting to enter the second button prompted (arrow-up). Furthermore, I have attempted configuration on two separate DirecTV HR21 remotes in both AV1 and AV2 modes.
Come on Apple -- don't tease us! Testing wasn't done to make sure AppleTV can learn to respond to a current DirecTV remote? Yikes. I wonder what 3rd-party remotes were tested and confirmed to work.

How can I accept 3rd party license agreement on pdf files?

I was sent my tax return by my accountant. It is an adobe reader XI pdf file. I can not open the file because it wants me to accept a 3rd party pc license agreement to open the pdf file.
There is no hyperlink prompt to accept the license agreement with, and i have a completely unviewable pdf file tax return now.
I need to be able to view the paf tax return.
Why would adobe create a document and ask for an accept prompt from me without providing the prompt for me to click on?

Can't really visualise this. Can you post a screen shot of the message (but not if there are any personal details on screen)?

Problem deploying new version of 3rd party jar

I have a third party jar file that was recently updated with to a new version. I deleted the old jar file and replaced it with the new version. Modified classpath accordingly. The strange thing is that the only way I could get the classes that use this jar file to work was to recompile them. What am I missing?

When replacing a jar file it is alway a good idea to recompile against it... this ensures backward compatibity and also prevents Incompatible Class Change Errors. Your new 3rd party jar may not be completely backwards compatible, although it is always a good idea to recompile when implementing a new jar that your application depends on.

MSExchangeTransport 12014 3rd Party SSL Certificate does not match internal domain name.

I have a co-existance of Exchange 2003 and Exchange 2010 and after installing a new 3rd party cert I'm getting The following error. All mail is flowing and OWA is working.
Microsoft Exchange could not find a certificate that contains the domain name Exchange.domain.local in the personal store on the local computer. Therefore, it is unable to support the STARTTLS SMTP verb for the connector Default EXCHANGE with a FQDN parameter
of Exchange.domain.local. If the connector's FQDN is not specified, the computer's FQDN is used. Verify the connector configuration and the installed certificates to make sure that there is a certificate with a domain name for that FQDN. If this certificate
exists, run Enable-ExchangeCertificate -Services SMTP to make sure that the Microsoft Exchange Transport service has access to the certificate key.
Our GoDaddy UC SAN cert is not allowed to have .local SAN names, so I have no way of adding it to the cert. Is it possible for me to install a local CA and generate a self signed cert for the personal store or would it be better to disable
TLS for the receive connector?

Change the name on the Receive Connector (2010) or on the SMTP Virtual Server (2003) to match the name in the new certificate. One of them is sending the "exchange.domain.local" in the 220 banner when it accepts a connection.

IBook shuts down without warning with 3rd party battery.

Can you iBook G4 folks with battery savvy please check out my iBook G3 question:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1743983&tstart=0
To summarize, my brand new 3rd party battery causes the battery icon to go red after 3.5 hours run time with 1 hour left (23%). The iBook shuts down with 13 minutes left (4%) but doesn't get to 10 minutes so no warning message.
The distributor said some G4 iBook owners also reported the same strange behaviour.
Does anyone have any ideas or has anyone else experienced this? Yes I reset the PMU - no difference.
Mrs H

All the literature from Nu Power says I should get the warning - it's just that the battery shuts down before it gets to 10 minutes left when the warning SHOULD (they say) appear. Another conversation with the techies confirms that the message should appear.
I have recalibrated it thrice, each time it runs a little closer to the 10 minute mark for time left. I'll keep trying.
Trouble is we are leaving for a trip very shortly and don't have time to return this 2nd Nu Power and try for another brand.
I get about 5 hours of run time when trying to discharge the battery fully as quickly as possible by having screen at its brightest, while running iTunes with visualizer on and receiving a radio broadcast.
How much time do you get on your new Apple battery? (on a G4?) We are going places where we will be without electricity for a day or so and the long charge and run time are our prime necessities.
Thanks for your reply,
Mrs H
