BT Home Hub, Wi-Fi stops working after using it with the Apple TV 2.

Just got my Apple TV 2 and connected it to my BT Home Hub. After playing a couple of songs from my iTunes Collection on my Mac, the home hub's Wi-Fi connection goes down and I have to power cycle the home hub to get it back.
Black BT Home Hub 2.

Ian, I don't know about the HH-2, but the dropping wi-fi sounds sadly like what I had with the HH-1. Like I said, the BT HH is not up to much ...
You have several options, even if you want to stay with BT. First thing to resolve is do you actually want the HH, for example, to access one of BT's add ons like Sky Sports? If you do, you can go into the HH, disable the wireless, and connect some other access device to the HH Ethernet port. If you want to stay Apple, the choices are an Airport Extreme or an Airport Express. The former gives you a USB port as well as Ethernet ones and many people use it to hook up a printer so that you can print wirelessly. But it is a lot more expensive than the Express ... In either case connecting is easy - plug it into one of the Ethernet ports in the HH and follow the instructions.
If you don't want the BT extras, and would prefer to have something a little less costly than the Airport Extreme, you can get a nice Netgear combo modem/router/wireless unit from someplace like Currys or Comet.
A couple of closing points: I may be being hard on the HH and the wireless problem may be interference from other devices - try going into the hub and changing the wireless channel. Or it may be something completely different - can you run an Ethernet cable from the HH to the TV and try the direct connection?
Good luck!

  • My Ipad stop working and is just showing the apple logo and right after that the ITunes logo , I connected it to my PC but it ask me to restore it. Is there any trick to do not loose all my pictures if I restore it?

    My Ipad stop working and is just showing the apple logo and right after that the ITunes logo , I connected it to my PC but it ask me to restore it. Is there any trick to do not loose all my pictures if I restore it?

    Once the Device is in Recovery Mode... it is too late to save anything...
    To minimise loss... after the successful Recovery... Restore from the most recent Backup...

  • Multiselect stopped working after small change to the VO.

    Hi,
    I have a UI page where i need to make a small modification to the EO and the VO. There is a table which has multi select enabled. The multi select is bases on a transient variable in the VO with update able = always. This is working fine initially.
    Now i need to modify the EO's primary key. Currently is is made of col a+ col b and i need to make it col1 + col c. After doing this i edit the VO and uncheck the Primary_Key property of the Col b to null. I check the attribute mapping. Everything looks fine. When i run the AM in test mode , i see all values are correctly mapped to the corresponding columns.
    Now , strangely when i run the UI page, the VO changes are reflecting but the multiselect has stopped working. When i put a breakpoint on the Set method of IsSelected . .. i find that it is not being called at all.
    I am not able to figure out what the problem is.. Any inputs on this would be very helpful .
    Thanks,
    Ankit

    Sumit,
    Why do i need to re create the EO since the transient variable is present in the VO and the get set methods are present only in the VO java file. As far as i feel there should be no co-relation between the multi select attribute and the EO.
    If you are asking me to do the same from the perspective of the primary key, then after modifying the primary key, everything is working fine as per the required functionality other than the multiselect. Since i have implemented it in many of my UI pages i think i am not doing anything different here.. Just that when i modify the primary key of the VO, the setter method of the multi select attr is not called.

  • Time Machine stopped working after using two external drives

    I'm using a MacPro OS x 10.5.8.  I started using Time Machine in April 2011 to back up my files to a 2TB Lacie external drive connected via firewire.  Everything has been working fine until recently.  A friend needed some files transfered from Seagate 1TB to another external drive.  I bought a Lacie 1TB USB 3 drive and connected it to my Mac to make the file transfer.  After doing this I noticed that the generic drive icon for my 2TB Lacie backup drive had disappeared.  I could see the generic icon for the new 1TB Lacie drive.  Then I noticed a Lacie icon on my desktop.  I clicked on it and found it was my 2TB backup drive.
    I decided to check Time Machine to see if it was still working properly.  When I tried to restore to a previous time, the restore button stayed grayed out and didn't respond.  Other times it would light up and respond when I clicked on it but I got an error message.  I would like to restore my system back before I connected the two ext hard drives used for file transfering in case that was what caused the problem.  Could connecting another new Lacie 1TB USB 3 external drive have caused my problem?  I haven't had this problem with other external drives.

    First, merely connecting another drive could not have caused Time Machine to stop working.
    Since your backup is in a doubtful state, your highest priority should be to protect your data by making another backup to a different drive. You need more than one backup anyway. Connect an empty drive, select it in the TM preference pane, and start a new backup set. Once that's done, I suggest you run "Repair Disk" in Disk Utility on the old backup volume.

  • Photoshop CC stops working after using Load Files into Photoshop Layers in Bridge CC

    Okay, so basically I selected some 40 images in .bmp to load into Photoshop, but it stops working and closes. I don't have any other versions installed and I already tried installing it again, with no avail. Is there anything I can do to fix this? Should I also try installing Bridge again?

    I run Windows 7 Ultimate, I have 2.00GB of RAM with 1.74 usable, and I selected 40 images, each about 2MB.

  • W520: Optimus stop working after use of "discrete graphics only"

    I have issue with Photoshop and Optimus, so I am forced to use discrete graphics only. It is an other story...
    Issue is that when I choose discrete graphics everything if fine but when I change back to Optimus mode Discrete stops working. If I set some program to use quadro 1000m in Nvidia menu, it doesn't use it. They all use integrated graphics. I realized the problem when I checked Lenovo Power Management and Nvidia should have been on... It was not.
    Problem is gone if I reinstall drivers but it's not nice to do every time. I use latest updates from Lenovo Update and my BIOS is 1.34.
    Multiple display setup works while the problem exist, so Nvidia is still working but Optimus does no...
    It would be nice if someone could try switching to "Discrete only", load OS, restart with Optimus and check if it can still use Nvidia GPU.
    My english is not that good and if there are any difficulties to understand my point PLEASE ASK!
    Cheers

    is the Optimus at version 8.17.12.7593 ? If not, download it here >> http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/downloads/detail.page?DocID=DS013693
    Before you install, set your unit to diagnostic mode via msconfig before installing

  • Bought my I-Pad in Nov.  Just Wi-Fi.  Use almost every day and re-charge battery at 50%-- usually every 3-4 days.  Just finished re-charging to 100% today and was playing a video when it just stopped working.  Only picture of the Apple logo.

    Bought my I=pad (wi-fi) in Nov. Use sometime alsomst every day and re-charge battery at 50%.  Usually every 3-4 days.  Just finished re-charging to 100% and was playing a video.  Stopped and I turned it off and when I turned it back on, just got the Apple Logo.  is the battery no good after only 6 months? 

    The battery is not likely the culpret.  Something to hung up.  You need to reboot:
    Hold the home and power button at the same time for about 10 seconds (Keep holding past the swipe to shut down) and when the Apple Logo again appears, let go and your iPad should come back to life.

  • The volume keys on my MacBook Pro stop working after using headphones.

    The volume keys on my MacBook Pro recently stopped controling the volume after I've used headphones. I still have sound; I just can't make the volume increase or decrease. The mute, however, still works just fine. Because I have sound from the intenral speakers I know the computer doesn't think the headphones are still in the jack. A reboot fixes the problem, but as soon as I use headphones the problem starts up again. I want to fix this permanently.
    I don't know if this helps but all the other keys (brightness, play/pause, etc) still work. I recently had to reset the PRAM because my computer refused to sleep when the lid was shut. I've checked system preferences and everything seems to be in order.
    Can someone please help!?

    I found this advice on another thread after encountering the same problem - I did the reboot and it worked fine and dandy!
    I spoke with Applecare to fix my Macbook volume. Apparently there are pins inside the speaker/headphone jack that can get jammed. We fixed mine by doing some sort of reboot:
    Turn off laptop.
    Hold down the Option, Command, P, and R keys (all four at once, it's tricky!) and while holding down the four keys, turn on the computer. When you hear the second chime, release the four keys.
    This re-set the sound toggle to internal speakers. Now I'm afraid to insert headphones again, but I assume this reboot will work over and over.

  • Outlook 2010 on Windows 7 stopped working (after many years) with Yahoo Mail since End Nov 2013

    Yahoo has made design changes to Yahoo month or so ago (Nov 2013). Yahoo now states the Outlook (amongst few other apps) does not work well with Yahoo and Outlook now needs another level of security set up on Yahoo account and a special password generated
    by Yahoo Mail. This password now to be used in account configuration in Outlook - instead of your usual account password.
    Tried this on different computers and different user account (of family).  On different accounts it reports either (A) "Receiving error 0x80042108: Outlook cannot connect to your incoming POP3 server" OR (B) Sending error 0x800CCC80
    : None of the Authentication methods supported by this client are supported by your server"
    Any one has solution/suggestion.
    Another question, why Outlook has been singled out by Yahoo now?

    Hi,
    Firstly, let’s refer to the following article to check the settings of POP3 account:
    http://www.emailquestions.com/microsoft-outlook/8548-fix-pop3-imap-settings-yahoo-mail-yahoo-requires-ssl.html
    “The current setting (December 2013) is port 587 + TLS (Authentication required).”

  • My DVD drive doesn't work.  It stopped working after I upgrade to the new OS.  What can I do to fix this?, My DVD drive doesn't work.  It stopped working after I upgrade to the new OS.  What can I do to fix this?

    Is there a way I can fix this problem without going to the store?  It seems that my macbook pro was okay untl I upgraded.  It doesn't read DVD nor any CD.

    I've not heard of any updates that caused optical drives to fail. Best thing you can do is to make an appointment at the Apple Store. They will run diagnostics on your computer free - you only pay if you choose to have it repaired.
    If it does turn out to be a bad SuperDrive and the price to replace from Apple seems high, you can always replace the drive yourself. Try OWC for listings of replaceable drives and the toolkit and instructions on how to replace the drive.
