Can't record on my 2nd box, says make sure the main box is plugged in and powered on

getting this error when trying to record on the 2nd box which is not the main box: Please check that your living room is plugged in and powered on so that your programs can record. Living Room is the main box and it is plugged in and powered on, any know how to resolve this? I'm on hold with Comcast Support for the past 20 min now figured I try the forum. Also I just installed the equipment yesterday so this has never worked. I can watch TV on both of them and get the Guide OK so they are clearly communicating with the mother ship. thanks

Hi ym486,
The health check on your account did reveal some signal issues particularly with that box. As John said, something is preventing that box some receiving/relaying optimal signal which very well could be what's causing your recording issue. It's recommended to have a tech come out to correct everything. You can send me days/times that work best for you and I'll set one up.

When I try to connect my bluetooth keyboard to my ipad, the dialog box pops up and says: "Make sure 'Apple Wireless Keyboard' is turned on and in range." But the keyboard is turned on and is right in front of the ipad. Any thoughts?

When I try to cnnect my bluetooth keyboard to my ipad, the dialogue box pops up and says: "Make sure 'Apple Wireless Keyboard' is turned on and in range." The thing is, the keyboard is on and is sitting in front of the ipad. I have used it before, but not for many months. I changed the batteries today just in case. The green light on the keyboard comes on and continues blinking. What am I missing?

Keyboards Can only be paired with one device at the time so if it's paired with another device IN range it Will not pair with the ipad

10.6.8 cannot access iCloud's facilities - you can set Mail up manually and there is a hack which some people have used to sync calendars (see below) - you cannot sync any other type of data.
This is the situation with iCloud and Snow Leopard:
Your email, calendars, and 'Find my iPhone' will be migrated to iCloud. Contacts and Bookmarks cannot be migrated from a Snow Leopard Mac.
Your iDisk, together with website hosting and Gallery, will continue to work as before until next June.
Syncing of Dashboard Widgets, Dock Items and Keychains between Macs, and Mail Accounts, Mail Rules, System Preferences, Signatures & Smart Mailboxes between Macs & iOS devices, will cease altogether.
You will be able to access email and calendars on the iCloud website at http://icloud.com provided your browser is reasonably up-to-date.
You will not be able to sync contacts or bookmarks from a pre-Lion Mac.
You will be able to enter the server settings for email manually in the Mail application and access your email.
You will not be able to sync your calendars directly.
Some people have been able to set up calendar syncing by using the method detailed here - this is an unsupported hack and may not be reliable, and may stop working at some future point. BusyCal is an iCal-like calendar application with extra facilities: it can sync with the iCloud Calendar while running on Leopard, Snow Leopard or Lion.
There appears to be no method of syncing contacts (though Address Book on a Mac can be synced with Google or Yahoo address books - I don't know how reliable this is).

On eftps.gov site-they say "Make sure the security lock is closed Secured browser padlock on your browser" and they show a yellow padlock. I cannot find this yellow padlock on my screen. It does show - https: Is that the same thing ? Help

all seems good above

You should see that padlock at the right of the Status bar.

HT5624 I've opened up iTunes and went to buy a song, but then it came up with a box saying "this is the first time you are purchasing an item on this computer" even though my computer is authorised. What do i do?

I've opened up iTunes and went to buy a song, but then it came up with a box saying "this is the first time you are purchasing an item on this computer" even though my computer is authorised. Then when i put in my password it takes me to the security questions and i dont know what the answers are. What do i do?

A computer can be authorized to play content purchased using a particular Apple ID (the iTunes Store account). However, being authoized to play content is not directly related to being able to buy content using that Apple ID.
For example, a parent may purchase content for a child and authorize the child's computer to play that content, but that does not mean the child is able to purchase content using that Apple ID.
If this is your Apple ID, you should know the answers to the security questions. If you do not, you'll need to contact Apple iTunes Store customer support

Can Apple help owners of 2nd Generation iPod touch upgrade the OS beyond 4.2.1?

Hi,
Can Apple help owners of 2nd Generation iPod touch upgrade the OS beyond 4.2.1?
If Apple cannot help us, what is the alternative without us hacking the device?

Even hacking it you cannot go further than the equivalent to 4.2.1. The only thing Apple could possibly do is add more RAM.

How to match the width of the choice box's dropdown to the choice box

Hi there,
I'm using a ChoiceBox control. The choice box seems to be composed of two parts: the box(displaying the current selection) and a context menu(dropdown). What I find strange is that the dropdown of the choice box(the context menu) has different size than the choice box by default:
http://manvox.com/javafx1.3/choice-box-dropdown.jpeg
I can style the choiceBox's box element by modifying the +.choice-box+ CSS selector. I can also style the dropdown using the +.context-menu+ and +.menu-item+ selectors.
How can I ensure that the dropdown has the same size of it's parent choice box and is aligned to it?

@alabala: Please, if you can spare a few minutes, can you file a bug report for this at the JavaFX Jira issue tracker here: http://javafx-jira.kenai.com
If you set the 'project' to 'runtime', and 'component' to controls, it'll end up on my desk and I'll get the owner of the ChoiceBox control to take a look at it.
Thanks,
-- Jonathan

My opening window has an overlay saying "make sure to get the latest inspiration Browser

My opening window has an overlay saying "make sure to get the latest inspiration Browser. How xan I get the required download

You can't. There is basically no inspiration browser anymore. The best way around that is to stop using the welcome screen. Launch PSE by going to the Program Files or Program Files (x86) in Windows or the Applications folder on a Mac, and finding the actual .exe/application file for the organizer and/or editor and making a desktop shortcut/dock icon for the one(s) you choose.
The tutorials that were available via the IB have moved to tv.adobe.com and adobe's youtube channel.

I keep getting urgent msgs to download 3.6. I have done so, but the download doesn[t seem to finish completely. How can I make sure the download has occurred? h s

I have dowloaded both 3.6 and 4.1 exe, however, I still get the urgent mesg from firefox. My download file shows that the downloads took place, but I guess they never were completely installed. How can I check to make sure the downloads are installed? Will the urgent messages stop when the downloads are truly installed?'

Do a clean (re-)install:
* Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version and remove the Firefox program folder before installing that copy of the Firefox installer.
* Don't remove personal data if you uninstall the current version (doesn't apply to Firefox 3.0.x).
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere (not in the Firefox program folder) and won't be affected by a (re)install.

How do I get the iTunes festival to play on my Apple TV in the evening, as I work during the day and can't watch it at 4:00pm? I have the app installed on my iPad and can't get it to play!

How do I get the iTunes festival to play on my Apple TV in the evening, as I work during the day and can't watch it at 4:00pm? I have the app installed on my iPad and can't get it to play!

I haven't received an answer. I hope someone can answer this because it's an ongoing problem that I can't play some CDs on my MacBook Air (see my original post for the details). Anyone? Please? Thanks in advance!
