Continuing Problems with VOD

For nearly a month now I have had problems with VOD.  Any time I try to use VOD, whether its HBO, Showtime or one of the other channels, the video starts and immediately pixilates and the audio breaks up.  I have had two different FIOS techs to my house and the last tech after spending hours checking everything finally convinced the people at the "central office" that the problem was at their end.  They promised to fix, reset  or replace one of the cards at the CO to fix the problem overnight.  When I checked the next day, the problem had gotten worse -more pixilation, broken up audio.  On 6 consecutive days I have called tech support and each day they tell me they are in the process of resetting or replacing the card and give me a time by which they expect the problem to be fixed.  Needless to say, when I check the next day, the issue had not been resolved.  I did learn from the tech that the problem card is something called a GigE card.  At this point there must be hundreds if not thousands of other FIOS users experiencing the same problem.  It is now going on a month since VZ has been unable to provide me a service they promote so heavily.  And since I only watch TV in a time shifted manner, the triple play that costs me over $180/month has become virtually worthless to me.
VZ needs to address this problem.  If not, I guess I will have to do the unthinkable and switch back to Cablevision.

  • I have continuous problems with my iPad Mini, and it is getting worse!  Newstand application keep pausing or crashing, websites keep hanging first time in but then open fine the second time, and I have problems with applictions crashing.

    I have continuous problems with my iPad Mini, and it is getting worse!  Newstand application keep pausing or crashing, websites keep hanging first time in but then open fine the second time, and I have problems with applictions crashing.  Has anyone experienced similar problems and any suggestions?

    Has the device always behaved this way? Did this start as a result of an update to the iOS software? If the problem is that bad, you should probably restore the iOS software and then restore from a backup. If that fails, restore as new and rebuild the device. If that fails, it's time for a trip to an Apple Store to let them have a look at the iPad.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

  • Event Viewer reporting continuous problem with Firefox

    I had to disable McAfee Site Advisor because if enabled I could not use the back and forth arrows on the browser in some instances. In trying to track this problem down I discovered there is a continuous problem reported in Event Viewer with this information:

  • Continual problem with the Adjustment brush in both Lightroom 3 and Lightroom 4

    The Adjustment brush in both Lightroom 3 and Lightroom 4 continually stops functioning correctly - that is any adjustment made using the sliders in the Adjustment Brush panel does not make an adjustment on the image.      Normally I would go to Library / Preferences [on my iMac OSX 10.6.8], remove the com.adobe.Lightroom3.plist file and restart Lightroom.     However I have gone to Library/Preferences and there is no listing of any Lightroom 3 plist files, nor for that matter any adobe Photoshop CS5 plist files or any adobe Lightroom 4 plist files.      I have tried restarting the iMac but to no avail - no help at all!      I have no idea how to remedy the situation as I have no idea where the plist files have gone!!!
    Incidentally I have a new iMac 27" OSX 10.8 - same problem with the Adjustment Brush there, but so far the plist files haven't disappeared into the ether somewhere!
    Help would be appreciated  ...
    Many thanks

    Hi Jussi
    I tried changing to the B brush set, and the Adjustment Brush worked OK in there for a while - but now I have the same problem with the B brush set too.     It appears to happen instantly - one minute they're working, the next minute they're not!!         For example, I was adjusting Brightening using the Adjustment Brush and I literally made an adjustment on one image, then went back into the same image seconds later to make a further Brightening adjustment and the brush wasn't working - well, that is, not unless I pushed the slider to something like 160 and then I got minimal adjustment!!!       I am becoming increasingly frustrated  ..   I have literally worked for months with no problems, now it's almost every day!!

  • Continuing problem with 21 XL cartridge

    I bought a 21 XL cartridge for my PSC 1410 a week ago. First for one print everything worked fine. The next time I tried to print it showed the "low ink level" appeared and I followed the instructions on the website http://h41112.www4.hp.com/promo/21xl-info/uk/en/trigger.html and ignored it. But I could not just continue printing as sugested on the website. The red LED-light kept on blinking,the display sowed "E" for empty. After several laptop restarts, taking the cartridges out and puting them in again and dis-and reconecting the USB cable I could print again this morning. But now that I restarted my laptop again the same problem occured and I can't seem to fix it. The warning is also shown in another design as the website suggests. It is very very annoying and timeconsuming!!!
    I'm glad for any info/tips!Thanks in advance!

    I am having the same problem with the 7500 All in One.
    The color ink is great. THe XL black isn't printing. I am ging to get a regular black ink tomorrow and see if that works.

  • Continued problems with Adobe Reader 9.3.1

    Adobe Reader stops at the half-way mark in the progress block when loading a form to print.  Cannot get this fixed. Does anyone out there have a fix for this.  Is Adobe even recognizing that there is a problem with this.  Error message keeps telling me that there is a problem with Adobe Reader, exit and try again.

    I haven't been able to print any .pdf files since I downloaded 9.3.
    My message says Internet Explorer has closed it down because of data executable files.  I've changed my DEF settings to allow
    Adobe Reader but it still doesn't work.  I never had any problems before with newer versions.

  • Continuing problems with Audigy2 Zs Drivers. Help!

    Hi all,
    I have had a recurring problem now that has gone on for far too long and is really killing me. I have the specs for the computer in my signature.
    What happens, is everything works perfectly well until I install my Creative Audigy2 Zs Drivers for my second soundcard. Then when the computer reboots, the pc halts just before desktop to a blank screen for something like 30-45 minutes. The only way I can bootup, is if I remove every USB device from the system. It doesn't matter what USB device is plugged in, the computer just won't boot.
    I have tried everything: updating drivers, changing around sound card PCI slot, changing IRQ's but nothing seems to fix the problem until I uninstall the soundcard drivers, where everything boots up as normal.
    I really don't understand this, and i'm suprised noone else I can see are having problems with this soundcard, and drivers. I have searched the interweb for a solution, and others that are having this problem, but to no avail so far
    Many thanks for any help,

    I really don't recognize this problem, but I wonder: what is your first soundcard? Is it an onboard one? Did you try uninstalling those drivers, then install the creative drivers and then reinstall the drivers of the first soundcard? (I asume you want to have two cards installed ..... may I ask why, just curious ...)
    My first sound card is the onboard MSI 5.1 chip. I need two soundcards for flightsim (one for aircraft sound, one for vatsim atc). I have tried installing the creative before installing the onboard card, but the same thing

    The second thing I can tell you: Creative often makes crappy drivers. One thing you could try is to start MSCONFIG (Start -> Run), and uncheck the SBDrvDet (or SBDrvDetect) in the Startup tab. That item causes some problems...
    I will try that thanks. Could this be an IRQ problem (i am quite a newbie when it comes to irq's)

  • Continual Problems with Skype-to-Skype calls TO Sw...

    Let's see if the Skype Customer Service will respond to this inquiry in a manner which indicates that they have completely read and understood the situation which I am about to explain.
    Over the past 8 years, I have been regularly using Skype to call family in Switzerland. That's Skype-to-Skype, not Skype-to-phone. I have either used a modern Macintosh (OS 10.6.8, using Skype 6.15) or most recently an iPhone5 (OS 8.1.3) and the downloaded Skype App. The person with whom I have been speaking in Switzerland has been using either a modern Windows PC or iPhone5.
    Each time, I can't call them, and the person over there must first call me.
    Each time, I can transmit a live picture to them, but I can not receive their picture.
    Oh, yes, I just tried to message Skype Customer Service about this issue, and received the following message: “500 - Internal server error. There is a problem with the resource you are looking for, and it cannot be displayed.”

    Customer service has received your request and working on it.

  • Continuing problem with cursor jumping and more!

    I had made a post about cursor jumping and thought I had solved the problem but it's back again with a twist. The cursor still jumps eratically in just about any program and will then settle down for awhile. What is also happening is the flyout tools in adobe photoshop and illustrator don't work properly or at all. I have tried trashing the preferences for illustrator and photoshop, repaired permissions, repaired the disk with disk utility- it says everything is fine. Now...... when I sartup off of my backup hard drive, everything is fine- cursor and all. Are there any ideas as to how I can solve the problem with my internal hard disk? I was told that I may have to wipe the hard disk clean and start over again. Are there any areas you can send me to that will help me do that?

    I have this problem even before running this set up updates (not sure what version) so I have a hunch it may not be related to those updates (but not sure)..
    .it started whem mine was new a few months ago and I am using a T410s....however  I am also running win 7 64bit....
    I did re-ren the windows touchpad calibration and it seemed to get better (NOT CONCLUSIVE) as it is intermitant and just started again...it would happen often for spurts then stop (Few days happening often)...when I am in hotel rooms or places with steam it seemed to happen more (not sure if coincidence)...I did run the tablet input calibration in the control panel but not sure if it fixes it...I don't know if it is softare or hardware and it is very anoying and intermitant...exact same things....cursor jumps to right corner and tablet keyboard shows up in left corner even though no touch...and it closes some apps...as that is where the X is....if you find anything PLEASE let me know...thanks

  • Continuing problems with LR4 RC2

    Although I have read many postings saying that RC2 took care of the performance problems in 4.0, it certainly has not been true for me. If I edit more than a few images in one session, it slows to a crawl, showing the windows circle for long periods of time and often refusing to redraw images on the screen. It routlinely fails to return a regular cursor in the left hand develop panel. Some sliders will work OK, but others work so slowly that they are unusable--nothing happens at all, and the abruptly, the adjustment will to to an extreme. often there is no choice but to close the program down and restart it. I love some of the new features (especially softproofing and the new tonal sliders), but this is so bad that I just downloaded 3.6 to reinstall. 3.6 ran without a hitch on the same computer, as did earlier versions of 3.
    I had read that problems are more common with nVidia cards, but I have an ATI. I'll post system information below.
    This week I started hunting on line, and it looks like I am hardly alone--lots of people report similar problems, but some report none at all.
    Does any one know of any steps one can take to make some of these problems less severe? Or when there might be a new release?
    Thanks

  • HT203822 Continuing problems with Apple TV

    My AppleTv had been working very well with the airplay on my Mac for a year.
    For awhile doing a 'settings reset' solved the problem but lately I must connect Apple Tv to Itunes and replaced the Apple TV software.
    Then everything works fine for a day or so.   Same passwords, same id. 
    Please help.

    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router. (Also try removing it’s power cord for at least 30 seconds)
    Restart your mobile device.
    If you are still having problems, the following article(s) may help you.
