Connecting Devices to TV

I have the Toshiba 40E220U model television and am having issues connecting multiple devices to it. My satellite box hooks up via composite A/V cables (I believe I had the option of an HDMI cable but I didn't have an HD TV when I got the satellite service so they gave me composite cables.)
I hooked the satellite box up fine, but I also wanted to hook up my PS2, which also uses composite A/V cables. There appears to be more than enough holes to plug into, but I can't get it to work. My question is, is it possible to have 2 devices hooked up with composite cables at the same time on this TV?
If not, can you have one set of composite and one set of component A/V cables hooked up at the same time on this TV? Because I did find a set of component A/V cables on Amazon for PS2 fairly cheap. However, if this is also not possible, I do have a last resort of contacting Dish and having them exchange the composite cables for an HDMI cable. I know this would give me a better picture for my TV but dealing with them is extremely frustrating and I know it will take forever to even get the new cable!
Thank you so much for any help and input you can provide!

Nevermind about this post. I just decided to purchase a component cable and and HDMI cable. I'll at least get a much better picture out of both devices this way!

I have an apple iphone 4 that I want to download audio books from my library onto it. I cannot figure out how to do that. The iphone does not show up on my mac laptop as a connected device. Does this kind of download have to run through itunes? Thanks

Yes it is done through iTunes. The iPhone will never show up in Finder as a device.

I have a wireless home phone connect device. Can call out on it when dial tone present, but most times cannot receive calls since purchase. Anyone else having a problem with their home connect device?

Have had Wireless Home Phone connect device refreshed and updated three times since I purchased it in September 2014. Last tech I worked with on it initialized an NRB to check the network. I checked the location of the tower, which is less than one mile up the hill with clear line of site. The device always has two antennas on it. The device is great when it does work, but most of the time it rings three times and then jumps to an automated message saying the person I am calling is not available. I've actually gone up there several times to try an fix the device, but always end up calling a Verizon tech who has me unplug it, pull the battery, and they do some network stuff and then we turn it back on and it works. After the last time on 10/02/14, I called it and got the message. I drove up there, 100 miles one way, and called it while standing in the room. Got the same message. I picked up the phone, heard a dial tone and dialed my phone and it range through. I hung that phone connected to the device and call it using my cell phone. It rang through. I went home and tried to call it the next day. Again it did not ring through and I got the message after three rings. I call another phone at the facility and had them call me on my mom's phone and it is fixed it again. The fix last for a day or two and then it's broken again, like it is today. If it's a network problem then it must be fairly close to the area because no matter what we do it fails again. So much for the 99.98% reliable. This thing is a piece of junk!
I purchased this device and put it on my plan so that my mother who we placed in a home at 96 years old would have a phone connection that she could use and wouldn't flip her out. My family and her family has not been able to faithfully connect with her at this critical time in her life. I am giving Verizon 10 more days to figure this out and then I am going to ask for a total refund not to mention how much time and travel I have put into this piece of junk. Either the home connect transceiver is broken or the network is broken. Why should I pay close to $70 for a service that has not worked more than several days out of 35 days? Also I have spent close to three hours on the phone with decent technical people, but it's my time. I should send Verizon a bill for every time I have gone up there to fix this device as well.
What perplexes me is that a regular cell phone would have sufficed, but because Verizon has to have a data connection that is not available on a regular phone and it was going to cost me $30/month, I decided to go with the home connect. Seemed like a nice solution for an older person who would have a hard time using a cell phone and keeping it charged. Plus after all the fees for getting it connected, it only cost $20/month. That would be a pretty good thing, IF IT WORKED....... The other thing that irks me is, why do I have to pay for a data connection when the cell phone Verizon originally provided can't even access the network. What ever happened to adding a phone line for $10 bucks\ month? All I wanted was a simple phone. She would not be able to use anything more complex and all she needs is a phone line period.
I have no problem paying for something that works and does what it should, but this is ridiculousness. The MTF on this device is somewhere around 1 to 2 days. Out of 365 days that's about a 96.5% failure rate....... Want my advice? Get ride of this device. It sucks and it's bad marketing.

jsavage9621,
It pains me to hear about your experience with the Home Phone Connect. This device usually works seamlessly and is a great alternative to a landline phone. It sounds like we've done our fair share of work on your account here. I'm going to go ahead and send you a Private Message so that we can access your account and review any open tickets for you. I look forward to speaking with you.

by way of experiment, try the technique described in the following document (remember to take a backup of your device filter registry keys first).

WRT54G can ping internet, but connected devices cannot.

When I do a factory reset of our WRT54G router and configure it for our setup, everything works fine for a while (undetermined, random amount of time). We use it primarily for wireless access, and connect an iphone, ipad, mac, pc devices to it with no problem and can access the internet fine.
After some period of time, all devices can still connect to the WRT54G via wireless, but cannot access the internet either by browser or ping/tracert commands. Meanwhile, the WRT54G diagnostics can successfully perform pings and tracerts to both IP address and URLs (so DNS *is* working fine)
I connected a computer to the WRT54G via cat5 cable while the wireless devices could not access the internet, and the wired computer could *not* access the internet either. However, from the admin section of the WRT54G we could ping/tracert with no problems.
Any ideas what causes this to drop and what we can do (other than factory reset) to fix it, and perhaps to prevent it?
..Rick..

This isn't a home setup. My wrt54G is connected to a DMZ switch which is connected to our gateway router and then out to the 100mpbs pipe.
All of our LAN is working fine, and as I mentioned in the original post, the WRT54G can always ping an external site (both via URL and IP address), as well as being able to do a traceroute.
When the connected devices can no longer get to the internet through the router, the router can still do the pings and traceroutes, so I conclude that there is no interruption in internet service. It stops at the WRT54G. It always accepts wireless connections.

I updated my ipad2 to ios7 and now it won't allow me to download photos from my iphone..it says connected device is not supported (on the iphone)

I updated my ipad 2 and my iphones to ios7...now when I plug the adapted in to download my images from the iphone to the ipad..I get a message saying that the connected device is not supported...It worked before ios 7 what do I do?

Same problem here. I am trying to load photos from my iPhone 5 to my iPad 3. The iPad asks me to trust the iPhone, and the iPhone says "iPad: device not supported". I am using the camera connection kit w/ USB connector and my iPhone lightning adaptor. This worked before iOS 7.

HT4101 I can't use my lightning to USB camera adapter to connect my new Sony Cybershot DSC-W730 to my new ipad Air. It says the connected device needs too much power. Any ideas what to do?

Has anyone a solution to my newly purchased lightning to USB camera adapter not connecting my Sony Cybershot DSC-W730 to my new ipad Air? It says the connected device requires too much power.

Use the camera's SD card.
 Cheers, Tom

Disconnected camera appears as connected device - can't get rid of it!

I recently connected a Samsung Galaxy Tab (SCH-I905) to my Mac, and because it had a photo on it, iPhoto started up and wanted to import the photo. I did that, and ejected the device and all seemed well.
But now whenever I start up iPhoto, the SCH-I905 appears as a connected device even though it is not connected. An empty dotted line rectangle appears in the main pane showing there is allegedly 1 photo on it, but there is no thumbnail image for it, and if you try to import it you get an error "The following file could not be imported. The file is an unrecognised format" (even though the original file was jpg).
Further, this problem seems to be stopping iPhoto recognising my digital camera when I connect it - it doesn't appear. The Image Capture app is similarly affected - it thinks the SCH-I905 is connected and refuses to recognise my digital camera.
I have tried trashing iPhoto preferences - no difference.
According to System Profiler and USB Prober, the SCH-I905 is not connected, but my digital camera is. So the USB is working but iPhoto is ignoring it.
I can control-click the SCH-I905 icon in the left pane of iPhoto to "Unmount" it and the icon goes away, but my digital camera is still not recognised even if I unplug it and plug it back in again, and if I quit iPhoto and restart, the dreaded SCH-I905 comes back.
HELP! How do I permanently unmount "SCH-I905" and restore sanity?
iPhoto '09 (version 8.9.2)

Try trash the following file
com.apple.ImageCaptureNotifications.DeviceDiscoveryDatabase.501
from HD/Library/ Caches
and restart your mac.

Error 633: The modem (or other connecting device) is already in use or is not configured properly.

Hi all,
I recently got that a new USB CDMA modem which works fine on Windows 7 system but when I try connecting to my other laptop which runs on Windows 8.1, it keeps giving the error:
Error 633: The modem (or other connecting device) is already in use or is not configured properly. I've most of the links and solutions shared but none seems to work. I've generated diagnostic logs which are as follows. I interpreted some and most probably
it seems like an issue of incompatible driver, but does anyone else sees any issues in these diagnostic logs. Looking forward to your suggestions.

Hi,
We could get more information about your problem through this log. While, for your problem, first of all, it would be better to contact USB Modem manufacture to confirm its compatibility with Windows edition.
After that, make sure its driver was upgraded to be latest.

Is it possible to find the serial of the last connected device (iPod Nano) in itunes?

Is it possible to find the serial of the last connected device (iPod Nano) in itunes? Was stolen, trying to get info on my device.

iTunes will only show the serial number for iOS devices backed up using iTunes (and the iPod nano is not an iOS device). For alternative ways to find the serial number, see:
On your iPod packaging
If you still have the original packaging for your iPod, you can find your serial number on the barcode label that's affixed to the packaging.
On your iPod invoice or receipt

SG200-08 Loosing MAC addresses of connected devices

I have a SG200-08 Switch that has in the last month been acting up with certain types of traffic. On June 7, 2013 I installed the 1.0.6.2 firmware upgrading from 1.0.5.1. Updating the firmware has not helped.
Last week Tuesday a server that was connected to that switch disappeared from the network, looking at the trouble I had to reboot the server and traffic began to flow. After rebooting the server I found only 1 of 2 MAC addresses from the 1 NIC showing up on the port.
Today I have a Xerox Workcenter connected to the switch on another port and while working on changing settings on the device I stopping being able to reach the device, could not even ping it. I went into the switch port showed active, but no MAC address found in the dynamic table for that port. After rebooting the switch I could reach the Xerox again.
I rebooted the switch on Friday near the end of the day and it was doing better till this morning, all MAC addresses for connected devices were showing up OK. Is the device defective? It had been working OK previously, it is connected to another switch on port 1, and that shows a proper table of dynamic MAC addresses. In both cases of loosing a device it was being used not dormant or in any kind of low power mode.

Dear Michael,
Thank you for reaching Small Business Support Community.
Based on the symptoms; SG200 working fine before, it seems to work ok after reboot, and latest firmware already installed. It seems to me like a hardware failure but still, in order to confirm, it would be a good idea to restore to factory conditions and configure it manually again. Just in case that does not help I suggest you to contact the Small Business Support Center for further assistance;

Please let me know if there is anything I can assist you with in the meantime.
Kind regards,
