Appletv v1 yellow light flashing; won't stop. First time startup.

Just pulled model FA711LL/A from the box for the first time. (Bought it years ago as a backup. Now want to use it.) Plugged in the component cables (no HDMI on my monitor) and the power cord. Yellow light's been flashing for half an hour now and there's no sign that it's sending a signal to the monitor.
What's my next move?

Well, I should have tried this before anything else. I unplugged the Time Capsule from the power source and plugged it back in after about two  minutes. Green light appeared immediately. Coincidentally (maybe?), as soon as I did that and returned to Airport Utility, I had a message to update the firmware. I did check for an update earlier in the day, but TC appeared to be up to date at that time. Now I've updated the firmware, TC has restarted, and green light is on. Weired.

  • Rebel T3 not taking pictures, yellow light flashing, please help!

    My Rebel T3 won't take pictures.  A yellow light flashes on front, but nothing else happens.  I've tried replacing the battery, changing the mode, but it still won't take any pictures.  It was working just fine yesterday.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I actually did try that.  And this is going to sound like I'm totally stupid, but I figured out my problem. 
    Somehow I must have bumped the timer setting.  I've never used the timer before, so I didn't realize it made the yellow light flash.  And I wasn't just sitting there waiting to see if it would take a picture. 
    So anyway.... problem solved.  I feel dumb, but putting the solution here just in case anyone else has the same problem! lol

    can be dension or original BMW  in the x5, if dension you can get something call
    Scosche passPORT if  BMW brand you can get a new cable from Bmw with the usb and dual power supply,
    In the Mini if DIce brand you will need a new cable or new iPod interface, now they have a usb plug to do updates in case iPhone 5 is release in the future or any other updates from iTunes

  • HP Laserjet 1200 replaced toner & yellow light flashes

    Hi! I have a HP Laserjet 1200 which printed with smudges and ghost text a few lines down. In an attempt to correct this, I installed a new toner cartridge. I had difficulty opening the toner door completely; it stuck about half-way opened. I opened the left and right panels to see if I could loosen the old cartridge, and something snapped (probably a plastic clip) when I forced the right panel open. Opening  the panels didn't help, and I closed them. Eventually, after applying some pressure, I opened the toner door all of the way and replaced the toner. Now the printer doesn't work. The yellow light just flashes. Replacing the old toner cartridge doesn't help. I still have the same blinking yellow light problem. Does anyone have any ideas on this?

    I unplugged the electrical plug before (no off switch) but I guess for not long enough. Did it again and left it unplugged for awhile when I went to the store. Just plugged in and the memory has let go like you said. All's well now. Thanks.

  • Flash won't stop looping

    I have imported a 4 second SWF into Captivate 4. I want it to play through once then stop on the last frame of the SWF. The SWF has a stop embedded on the last frame. The problem is; it won't stop, but keeps on looping right through the SWF stop. I tried placing a 'Next' button with a "Pause after n seconds" on it and used varying intervals from 1 to 5 seconds for the pause to take effect but, you guessed it, the SWF just keeps on a-rolling along. The screen does stay put and does not continue until the 'Next' button is clicked - but I'm trying to get the SWF to play nice, and it won't!
    It seems to be the opposite problem to this post > http://forums.adobe.com/thread/607598 where they want to keep it looping, but it stops instead. Unfortunately there's no answer in this post so I can't reverse engineer a solution!
    Caviat: A colleague created the swf to my spec and I'm assuming they did in fact put the stop where requested. Will post an update if they did not do this.

    Your mismatched timing might be due to the frame rate of the Flash SWF not matching the frame rate of the Captivate movie.
    Check with your Flash developer again to find out what the frame rate was (e.g. 30 frames per second).  Get him to match it to the Captivate project.
    The issue with Flash animations needing to be on the main timeline has been documented before in these forums.  It wasn't an issue in Cp4 but has become so in Cp5 because the new architecture actually loads all the animations at the beginning of the movie. This means that by the time you reach the slide where you want the animation to play, it's already played long before.  This only affects SWF animation that have buried the animation inside a symbol, which is what Flash developers often do to make it all easier to resize and reposition as needed.  When the animation is happening one level down from the main timeline, you can trigger this animation to work properly in Captivate 5 by using some ActionScript in the Flash animation's main timeline.  Here's how:
    Create your animation as a symbol on a single keyframe so that the animation happens on the level one level down from the main timeline.
    Give the animation symbol an instance name (e.g. Fred).
    Add a new layer to the main timeline for ActionScript.  You're only going to need two frames on the main timeline with keyframes on each one.
    Put a stop(); action on the second frame so that it stops the main timeline.
    On the first keyframe put this code or similar: Fred.gotoAndPlay(1);
    What happens here is that when the Captivate SWF loads it will load your animation and start playing it but it will be stopped at the second frame of the main timeline.  When it gets to the slide where you want it to play, it will begin playing again, hit the first frame and then the AS code there will tell the Fred animation to play from its first frame. Hopefully there will be a stop action on its own timeline to terminate it as well.
    I've had to use this trick several times when trying to use the Right_Mark and Wrong_Mark tick and cross SWF animations that come with Captivate 5.  They've obviously not been updated to work properly since the change from Cp4.
    Hope this helps.

  • Flash file not loading first time but loads on refresh

    I have a problem where a flash program is not loading when
    the webpage is first visited, it will get stuck on the loading
    screen. Now for this file to finish loading, it needs to load in
    another file. Once that file is done loading then the program will
    continue. But like I said the first time the program gets stuck on
    the loading screen and never continues. If you hit refresh in the
    browser then the program will continue past the loading screen.
    I've checked the code and everything seems fine there. Could
    this be a security issue? The two files are on the same domain. Or
    if anyone has any insight into this problem, it would be
    appreciated.

    That is almost always caused by a faulty preloader code. Post
    your preloader code or a link to the website so it can be checked.

  • Why aren't Flash cookies cleared the first time I exit Firefox?

    I am running XP, Firefox 16.0.1 and Flash Player 11.4.402.287 and have Firefox configured to "Clear history when Firefox closes", with "Cookies" (amongst other options) checked in the "Settings for Clearing History". I also have Flash Player configured to "Block all sites from storing information on this computer."
    As I understand things, starting with Firefox 4 and Flash Player 10.3, having Firefox configured this way should cause Flash cookies to be deleted upon exiting Firefox. I also understand that even though I have Flash configured as I do, a list of sites that attempt to plant a Flash cookie will still be recorded in the main settings.sol cookie.
    I have noticed, though, that this list of empty Flash cookies is not deleted the first time I exit Firefox; rather, the list is deleted after launching and then exiting Firefox again.
    Here's a step-by-step example:
    1) Control Panel -> Flash Player -> Storage tab -> Local Storage Settings by Site... button -> confirm that the list is empty
    2) Exit the Flash Player Settings Manage
    3) Launch Firefox -> go to www.hulu.com and click on a video to start it playing
    4) Relaunch Control Panel -> Flash Player -> Storage tab -> Local Storage Settings by Site... button -> confirm that the list shows www.hulu.com, 0 bytes, Block
    5) Exit the Flash Player Settings Manager
    6) Exit Firefox
    7) Relaunch Control Panel -> Flash Player -> Storage tab -> Local Storage Settings by Site... button -> NOTE THAT THE LIST STILL SHOWS www.hulu.com, 0 bytes, Block
    8) Exit the Flash Player Settings Manager
    9) Relaunch Firefox
    10) Relaunch Control Panel -> Flash Player -> Storage tab -> Local Storage Settings by Site... button -> NOTE THAT THE LIST STILL SHOWS www.hulu.com, 0 bytes, Block
    11) Exit the Flash Player Settings Manager
    12) Exit Firefox
    13) Relaunch Control Panel -> Flash Player -> Storage tab -> Local Storage Settings by Site... button -> NOTE THAT THE LIST IS NOW EMPTY
    So again my question is - why isn't this list emptied the first time around?

    Ok, so I created a new profile and followed the steps I spelled out in my first post several times - each time the Hulu flash cookie was cleared the first time I closed Firefox.
    So what would you recommend I do next to get to the bottom of the behavior in my current profile? Should I go about disabling my extensions and plugins one by one and repeating the test each time?
    Thanks again so much for your time and help.
    PS: I never have a problem with Hulu playing with my flash local storage set to zero - interesting that you do...

  • Flash Player update stops installing [times out] at 12% FF8 & FF9.

    Can anyone throw some light on this please? It downloads OK, Initialises OK, but always times out at 12% install. Adobe site no help at all. Am trying to update as Plugin says I need to. Have tried about 10 times at least and then updated to FF9 in the hopes this would solve the problem. Running W7 [64 bit] Only one thing I've noticed, I have 2.20GHz whereas Adobe minimum is 2.50GHz. There appears no answer from Adobe if you are below their specs.?
    My desktop has upgraded OK with 2.50GHz. But if you can't upgrade what do you do?
    Hope someone somewhere can help please!!

    Thanks for the feedback.  Providing Flash Player free of charge is a tremendously expensive undertaking, and the bundled offers are an important cost-recovery mechanism.  That said, under normal circumstances, you should have seen an option to opt out of the bundled offer. 
    I've included a screenshot of the expected UI below.  We've heard from some users that running third-party plug-ins like Ghostery interfere with the correct execution of the software on the page, which results in the UI for this middle column not being displayed. 
    If you're not using something like Ghostery or AdBlock Pro, and you were not presented with this dialog, I'd be more than happy to investigate the issue further and try to get it resolved.  If you could give me some basic details as described in the following article, that would be very helpful in attempting to recreate the problem: Read Before Posting: How To Get A Useful Answer To Your Question

  • First time startup- Blinking amber light. Not sure what to do.

    So I just got my airport express and when i first started getting the airport utility downloaded for windows xp, i used my modem (time warner ubee modem) ethernet cable and all but I am just getting a blinking amber light. I don't know if it hasn't configured if I need to wait longer for to initally start.  I am kind of derp when it comes to networking, so..

    A persistent, flashing amber light indicates that any of the several potential conditions may require your attention:
    The base station has not yet been configured because it is new, or the reset switch has been set.
    You have selected a security configuration that is not recommended.
    One of several other conditions, such as a disconnected Ethernet cable or invalid IP address has been detected.
    (ref: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305101)
    If you run the AirPort Utility, it will show an amber circle on the summary page next to the area(s) causing the problem. Click on this amber circle and it should provide an explanation. Please post back your findings.

  • IchaT won't connect--first time user!!!

    I am trying desperatetly to talk to my 3 yr. old daughter on ichat.
    She and her mom have an apple id with ichat and i have an aol chat name with ichat.
    I read other posts and changed the network setting 443, so did she.
    it won't connect and we get connection errors. no success yet. once, we both came up then froze.
    that's it.
    any ideas?

    I'm asuming you mean video chat. Check both of your iChat Preferences Video Bandwidth Limit and make sure it is "none." With no other internet-savvy apps other than Safari running, each of you go to http://speedtest.net and do a speed test. Remember the smaller of kilobits-per-second upload and download numbers. Go into  System Preferences > Quicktime and select Streaming Speed to be the value closest to what you get from speedtest. Some people just say select 1/.5MBPS and all works well -- I have had a different experience than that so I recommend that you use the smallest of the speedtest numbers. Presumably, AIM's "wait awhile before trying to login again" penalty timer will have expired by the time you get this other stuff taken care of.
    Let us know how this works out for you.
    PS - are you, like, on business travel and in a hotel? You may have hotel firewall issues. Marriott chain hotels let you request a public IP address on their service signup page to bypass their restrictive port blocks, others you need to call the hotel's ISP support line and have them put you on a public IP. I think it is T-Mobile broadband that handles Hilton chain. They can do it but if you get an inexperienced customer service rep, (s)he may say that (s)he can't do that, but they can coz' I've had 'em do it for me before. And don't forget to have all ports in your Mac's firewall closed on your laptop mac that you are using in the hotel with a public IP and the Mac's firewall turned on. Don't want any internet evildoers seeing an unlocked door. iChat will open locally on your computer what ports you need.
