Can't see the time on my set top box

I don't know why, but the time doesn't show on my set top box, even though it's set to show clock. This happens 2 of the televisions where I will walk into the room and it is showing the channel instead of the time. I continually look on the menu and it still says "show clock," nothing ever changes and sometimes I end up unplugging the box and plugging it back up.
I've only had Fios for just about a month. Is this normal?

No it is not normal, but it happens pretty frequently to me. At least for me, it is not necessary to unplug the STB (I have a 6414 DVR and a couple of 2500 STBs and this works on all of them), just go into the menu to where the clock setting is, change it to Show Channel Number so it matches what you are actually seeing, then change it to Show Clock. Get out of the Menu and wait for up to one minute, and the clock should be displayed.
I see this problem anywhere from one day to the next to a month between occurances. But I could probably do the "fix" in my sleep now, it only takes 15-20 seconds to do.
Hope this helps.

  • Intermittently can't see the time capsule

    Greetings! For the past little while, my Macbook Air is intermittently losing the Time Capsule under "shared" in my computer. We have another Macbook Air, and a couple PC's in the house and they never drop the Time Capsule. We have named the Time Capsule, and so when you look under "shared" in the working Macbook, you'll see the Time Capsule as we have named it, then when you click on it, you'll see the Time Capsule which you can click on the see the files. On my Macbook, the named Time Capsule is usually there, but now and then, it just won't show. A restart doesn't seem to be a reliable fix. It's a strange problem. Does anyone have any ideas why this could be happening? Thanks very much! 

    First of all the TC has to be connected in bridge usually or at least so the computers are behind it's NAT if in router mode.. does the PC get the same IP range as the TC?
    Then ping the TC to make sure it is not blocked by firewalls.. if the PC is set to homegroup for instance then you may have issues. And networking is set on the PC to home.
    I presume you have access to the TC setup via a Mac..
    1. The default TC name is usually not compliant with SMB network names.. nor is wireless name.. so reduce all names to short, no spaces no special characters.. passwords can be longer but still no spaces no special characters.
    2. You haven't said if access is wireless or wired but guessing wired and you want disk access, go to the disk page sharing in the TC and set WORKGROUP.. to same name as PC. Also it is usually easier to turn on the guest account to have read write access. In your work situation maybe.. maybe not.. anyway that depends on how it will be used. You can also change the security to user passwords but that will stop all existing access to files.

  • I have an old tv.  Can I play apple tv through my set top box?

    The guy at the apple store told me I could play apple tv via my set top box as long as the box has a HDMI slot.   It is not working and I am wondering if the slot is input only?   Really out of my depth here!

    It would need HDMI or the three component jacks to input to.
    DirectTV box has HDMI out but not in.
    Best is to see if your TV has the component video jacks or multiple HDMI and switch via your TV remote.
    For example my Bravia has 2 sets of component input and 3 HDMI inputs.
    Hopefully, you have a newer TV.

  • HT201514 i can't see the time capsule from airport utilities. i did follow "From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences. Choose View Time Machine. Set Time Machine to On if it is off. .....but i couldn't find the time capsule from airport utility.....

    . .....but i couldn't find the time capsule from airport utility..... why?

    Are you using a new 802.11ac Time Capsule - the "tall" one - and are you still using Mac OS X 10.6.8?
    You need OS X 10.7.5 "Lion" or later, or an iOS device, to configure an 802.11ac Time Capsule:

  • Can not see the Time Capsule disc in Time Machine what can I do??????

    I just set up my new TC with my MacBook Air. The Wireless network is working fine but I can not find (see) the TC hard drive on my MacBook air so I can not set up Time Machine to back up my stuff. :=(
    Can someone help me with this... ?

    As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end.. amen!!
    Welcome to ML excellent standard networking.. I am awarding it the golden vista OS of the year.
    Did you turn it off and on again??
    Will no longer be the first phrase of all windows servicing.. it now extends to Macs as well.
    Maybe an auto electrical clock where you setup a timed daily reboot.. !!
    A mechanical one of course.. cannot trust those electronical versions.. they might use OS as reliable as Vista!!

  • Where can you see the time of the movie

    Hello to you all, i have a question about Imovie 11. A friend send me 3 small video's from his phone, with a description wich fragments to use.
    Example: Movie 1: from 00.00.35 - 00:01:27 and from 00:02.40 - 00:002.49, etc.
    But I don't see a timeline? I can't see where I am in the movie.
    I need to select fragments based on time, it would seem to me that this is really basic functionality?
    Thanks in advance,
    Simon

    Hmm, it works for the project, but not in the library, then you just get the title of the date and time the video has been imported. (And that is the place where I would like to see the original time changing)
    If I use the information in the project, I can't cut several pieces of time, because than the time of the second fragment wouldn't be right anymore..
    Thanks for you reply!

  • Can't visualize the time on the weekly view on ical

    Can anyone help me out, I can't see the times on the left of the ical panel in the weekly view and I can't seem to change this in preferences. Has anyone had this problem?

    I have a similar problem, have endured several calls to apple care, two trips into the genius bar, had 2 computers rebuilt and after all that, the first sync with MobileMe restored the problem. My profile/preferences only recognises the hour 5:00AM and the hour markers on the day view and week view all say Sat AM, Sat PM in every hour. Please help. This is driving me crazy. I'm pretty sure it has to do with Preferences. If I create another account, iCal is fine on that account.

  • Getting Error message ""This set top box does not match the account settings"

    Just ordered a new wireless receiver for the bedroom. Installed it and now getting the following error "This set top box does not match the account settings". Service was suppose to be enabled on Monday the 4th, but I recieved the hardware early and turned it on. I've since rebooted and unplugged and tried everything to no avail. Any thoughts on how I might get this to work? Regards,  Rick

    your wireless receiver is misconfigured (dirty) and need to be scrubbed clean.
    A tech (service visit) or tier 2 rep (phone or chat) can do this. The receiver needs to be unplugged, on the bottom of receiver is a GUI (long number) that will be needed to identify receiver, when instructed plug just the receiver in that gave number for, when that one is connected.
    Your choice 4 hour appointment window, or time on phone , or chat.
    If these have not been activated yet.... When screen comes up, depress OK on receiver, depress button on WAP, when the screen at receiver says try again, Depress OK button (remote or on stb) another screen for update, depress OK give about 10 minutes to load, reboot when checking depress menu to verify recordings, if no recordings menu not finished booting.
    Set aspect ratio MENU, OPTIONS, etc.
    should take about 20 minutes per receiver.

  • New HD Set top box and Multi-room DVR

    I just activated a new HD DVR set top box, but it's not seeing any of the shows recorded on the other HD DVR set top box that I've had for over a year.
    Do I just need to wait for the new box/service to be recognized/activated with the hub (the HD DVR I had prior to now) or do I need to call Verizon to make sure they add the multi-room dvr service to the box I just received?
    Thanks!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    If you replaced your dvr that had all your recordings on it, you wont have any of those shows on the new one because they are stored on the dvr itself.   But maybe im misunderstanding you, are you trying to watch recordings on a 2nd dvr, the multiroom feature does not work from dvr to dvr you can only stream to 6200,7100, and  2500 series stbs.

  • Want to use FiOS TV via CableCARD - CSR insists I must lease at least one set-top box

    Started looking into subscribing to Verizon using a CableCARD-based tuner, since I don't actually own a TV.
    I did some research at verizon.com and ran across this page (important parts in bold):
    CableCARDS
    A CableCARD is a device that provides access to certain encrypted High Definition (HD) and Standard Definition (SD) digital programs without the need for a Set-Top Box.
    CableCARD Features and Services
    What digital programs can I watch with my CableCARD?
    You can view all FiOS TV Standard Definition and High Definition digital channels to which you subscribe. You can also order certain Pay-Per-View events by calling 1-800-VERIZON (1-800-837-4966). Without a Set-Top Box, you do not have access to On Demand programming, the FiOS TV Interactive Media Guide, or other advanced features of the FiOS TV service.
    So far, so good. I logged into my account, selected a package, and started the checkout process - and then encountered an odd question: "How many set-top boxes do you need?", where the options were a drop-down list starting with 1 and scaling up. There's an extra $12/month charge (plus taxes, of course) for just one box, and more for other boxes. No way to skip that step.
    So apparently, according to Verizon's service rep... I need to pay $12/mo+tax for a set-top box that I don't need, and that will sit on a shelf while I watch Verizon TV through my fully-supported CableCARD adapter.

    You don't need an STB or DVR, but here's the easiest thing to do - and I just did it, so I know it works.
    Get the STB or DVR along with the Cable Cards. Get everything activated and working - including the cable cards - then return your STB or DVR, either to a FiOS store or via UPS. Voila, you're done and using only Cable Cards. I only have two Cable Cards on my account. Good luck.
    INTERESTING.
    I was considering doing this too. I originally had just a cablecard, then ordered a STB for another room. We don't use it so I wanted to return it. I can't!
    Brb going to UPS store.
