Download shows from AT&T Uverse dvr?
Recently dropped Tivo and switched to AT&T U-verse. Does anyone know if (as with Tivo) there are utilities that enable you to download shows from the U-verse dvr to a Mac?
doubtful, first of all your probably limited to at&t's media share on the set top box, and that requires Upnp and DNLA and those features are not available on a time capsule.. time capsule only supports nat-pmp and not upnp
for uverse and wanting to play shows either from it or off of it your only hope is a Network Attached Storage device
or a windows machine with windows media center. there are some posts that say twonky can play some music files and photos on a set top box but thats about it
the set top box is a windows ce device, so of couse they want you to use it with other windows devices
the whole setop box dvr industry is geared towards preventing you from taking the shows off their hard disk and putting them on your hard disk, except for maybe TIVO , they let you store stuff or play stuff on a tivo certified N.A.S. and i dont think tivo is available for uverse. i wonder if there are any yahoo forums that are dedicated to physically removing the hard drive out of the Uverse DVR and copying files off of it

I can't play downloaded shows from iTunes in QuickTime.
I've downloaded Quicktime, installed it. And it wouldn't play my shows from iTunes. Then I uninstalled and reinstalled and still wont play, keeps saying "The movie requires Quicktime, which is not included in this version of iTunes. To play this movie, install QuickTime".... :/ I have a Windows 7 Dell laptop.
Hello ifeoluwaloju,
The article below details how to completely remove and reinstall iTunes and it's related components. Doing so should help resolve this message.

Ipod uploading home movies???? or shows from net.....
Hey guys real n00b here. I'm familair with electronics just this ipod I am not yet. I am wanting to get the 30g color screen for x mas. B4 i have soeone drop that coin the main reason i want that is so i can upload my movies or my collection of downloaded shows like family guy and stuff. It is capable of doing that right? I mean you can download shows from the store so why not upload from your own comp. Are there restrictions to movie playing? Is there a process to convert your stuff to work on this ipod. If this isn't supposed to be discussed or already has just shoot me a link theres so much on here already I tried searching so thanx for your help. Also any experance with these devices after the very very limited one yr runs out on them compared to a lets say Creative mp3 player with a lifetime?

Recording tv shows from dvr to my pc
I have a brighthouse DVR and want to record some of the show's from it,I have a HP 9500y pc equiped with burnning/labaling abilty but no idea how to hook them together,or if it's even possible. any info would be great thanks
Couple of things to keep in mind here.
1) Your PC does not have a BlueRay drive. DVD native resolution is NTSC, ie: low def, not high def. While
software exists to convert you lose resolution and the show is going to look terrible.
2) Your brighthouse DVR I suspect is the one supplied by your cable TV provider, brighthouse?
If that is the case then almost certainly it is not going to have any way for the typical consumer to
make archival copies of TV shows because they want you to fill up your DVR so you have to delete
your old TV shows and get more from them (and continue to pay them, of course)
If you really want to record TV shows off brighthouse cable then this is what your going to have to do:
1) Scrap your DVR
2) Buy a PC that has Windows 7 on it.
3) Buy a TV tuner card (There's an inexpensive USB one for about $50 that works great)
4) If you subscribe to premium cable (ie: encrypted TV) then you will have to buy a
TV tuner card for the PC that has the slot in it for the cable-company supplied decryption
card. Once you get it working with unencrypted cable you call the cable company to
come out and plug in the decryption card.
5) Download a number of free conversion and video editing programs. Project X is one of
the best free ones out there.
6) Record your TV show then convert it from the .ts file to a AVI file using a codec of your
choice. Popular ones are MPEG4, DiVX, etc. This will not only shrink it down but it
will put it in a format that allows you to edit it to crop out the commercials.
7) Buy more hard drives. You will quickly find it much cheaper to create a library of
external USB hard drives (1-2 terabyte jobs) then to try to burn shows to optical media.
Have you priced blank bluray media lately? Not to mention the burners.
You need Win 7 because earlier versions of windows do not allow TV tuners to decode the
Cable TV standard off the cable line (at least, not for the cheap tuner cards, the expensive
ones contain software that will do it)
Keep in mind I do not have brighthouse, I looked at their website but I decided not to
waste a lot of time on it since it's not clear what exactly kind of content provider they are.
If they are not a cable provider but instead your getting stuff over the Internet from them
to your DVR, then a TV tuner card isn't going to do much good of course. If that is the
case then short of taking apart the DVR and taking the hard disk out and sticking it
in a PC to get the raw files off the DVR, your pretty much screwed. -

No. You need to buy it for your Apple ID and for the other. You will have problems with updates

I bought a Mac Book Pro retina display, Serial Number C02J*****2, on 8/11/2012. Unfortunately, I am unable to download updates from the App store.Whenever I tried to download updates, it shows me an error message, "we could not complete your request. there is an error in the App Store. Try again later (100). Your Apple ID has been disabled, contact iTune support". However,the problem still persists even after my password has been successfully reset. What is is the error in the app store? I really need help to resolve this issue.
Moreover,I also need help how to update to the mountain lion free of charge as my Mac pro is four(4) days old.

how can i add videos,movies and tv shows episodes to my ipod nano?I want to know whether i can directly add them through my pc or not without downloading them from i tunes store?
Yes, you can add your own videos to iTunes, then sync them to your nano, subject to supported max resolution limit and file type. The specs for the 7th gen nano says (I don't know which nano model you have), Video Format Support
"H.264 video: 720 by 576 pixels, 30 frames per second; Baseline, Main, and High-Profile level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 256 Kbps; 48kHz; stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 Mbps, 720 by 576 pixels, 30 frames per second; Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 256 Kbps; 48kHz; stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats"
http://www.apple.com/ipod-nano/specs.html
(earlier nanos have lower max resolution limits)
So, "HD" video is too high resolution, so iTunes will not sync such videos to the iPod (although they play in iTunes). If you are asking how to set up iTunes to sync videos in general (regardless of source), please post back. -
I am a teacher and use my personal ipad to teach in my class. My school has set up a separate itunes account for teachers to download shows for use in class. How do i download from a different itunes account than i use personally?
You sign out of your ID in Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Apple ID, then sign onto the school ID in order to use it. You know your situation better than I do, but when you switch ID's on the iPad and go back and forth in order to download purchases, you run the risk of locking yourself out of one of the ID's for 90 days.

My photos are not showing up as layers in the layers panel, only as one layer, so I am not able to make changes to the layers. Does anyone know why this is happening? Am I downloading them from my camera wrong? I have watched the video and the photos don't open that way on my layers panel. Any help would be appreciated, I would like to edit out the background and turn it a different color.

Photos from cameras or scans have only one layer (the 'background' layer).
You can start with that 'background' layer and duplicate it or add other layers in the editing process. For instance you can make a selection of a subject and put it on another layer; a common use is to desaturate the 'background' and to keep the color in the selected subject in your newly created layer. -
When I download photos from a flash drive,everything is fine and they show in Events and Pictures, but when I click on the individual pic I get an error message saying that it cannot locate the JPG. Any thoughts?
It sounds like your iPhoto Advanced preferences are set to not copy photos during import, i.e. a Referenced library:
Check your Advanced preferences to see if that's the case. If it is the best solution would be to select the checkbox to copy the photos and reimport the photos from the flash drive. Then check the new import. It it was OK you can delete the previous event with the "missing" photos.

When trying to add music to a slide show from my PC to TV through Apple Tv the photos are fine but I get an error message that says the music cannot be downloaded.
Because the location for each song in your library is on your hard drive. If the hard drive isn't there, how can iTunes play it?
You'll have to move/copy the music from your hard drive to your computer's hard drive.
Basically, EASIEST way to do all this, if you don't care about your play counts, etc...
-Delete EVERYTHING from iTunes, so that your library is now empty.
-Go to "Advanced" inside of the "Preferences" window, found in the "Edit" drop-down. You can also access Preferences by pressing Ctrl+, (Press Ctrl and the comma key)
-Change your iTunes Media Folder Location to something simple, but on your computer. I use C:/iTunes. Make sure "Keep iTunes Media Folder Organized" and "Copy files to...." are both checked. You can close Preferences now.
-Now, drag and drop your music from your hard drive into your iTunes library. iTunes will automatically add the music to your library, as you would expect, and also creates a copy of each file to place into that iTunes Media Folder you just created.
Shouldn't have any more problems... -
