FIOS and ALL DIGITAL

Some of you may have noticed a few things on the National Broadcast channels such as NBC ABC and CBS with tests saying if you can see this then your not on Digital.
The entire Verizon Footprint is all Digital please do not allow these commercials to fool you into thinking anything else. Just sit back relax and enjoy your Fios TV services knowing that your all digital and have no worries.
The Bottom line is any customer with Fios will not have a problem regardless of what you see now.

I beg to differ with you a bit. These are local stations doing these tests - not the networks. They are only feeding these messages out over their analog channel. You may convert that analog channel to digital at your headend, but it's still the programming they are sending out on their analog signal. If Fios does not get the digital signal from these stations by the time the digital transition happens, then Fios customers watching those channels will see a blank screen.
Here is the good news: when this test was conducted in the Dallas-Fort Worth area a few weeks ago, I looked and did not see any problem at all. You guys are getting their digital signals and putting them on both the SD and HD versions of their channels on your system. That is the way it should be. I can't speak for how Fios does it in all parts of the country, but it is being done right here in North Texas.

Number that is a multiple of 9 and all digits are even?

I've writen this short program to find a number that is a multiple of 9 yet all its digits are even. Here is the code. I'm sure its not very compact and am doing this the hard way.
public class alldigitseven
    public static void main(String[] args)
        int number = 0;
        String numberString, tempString;
        char tempChar;
        int tempInt, matches = 0, stringLength;
        double tempRemainder;
        boolean answer = false;
        while (answer != true)
            // add 9 to the number
            if (number < 1000000)
                number += 9;
            // convert the int to a string
            numberString = "" + number;
            stringLength = numberString.length();
            for (int i = 0; i <= stringLength; i++)
                tempChar = numberString.charAt(i);
                tempString = "" + tempChar;
                tempInt = Integer.parseInt(tempString);
                tempRemainder = tempInt%2;
                if (tempRemainder == 0)
                    matches++;
                if (matches == stringLength - 1)
                    System.out.println (numberString);
                    answer = true;
}anways the code complies fine however when I run it, I get the error
"StringIndexOutOfBoundsException:
String index out of range: 1 (in Java.lang.String)"
What do I need to do to fix this?

here was the final code if anyone was curious...
public class alldigitseven
    public static void main(String[] args)
        int number = 0;
        String numberString, tempString;
        char tempChar;

        int tempRemainder;
        boolean answer = false;
        while (answer != true)
            // reset matches
            matches = 0;
            // add 9 to the number
            if (number < 1000)
                number += 9;
            else
                answer = true;
            // convert the int to a string
            numberString = "" + number;
            stringLength = numberString.length();
            for (int i = 0; i < stringLength; i++)
                tempChar = numberString.charAt(i);
                tempString = "" + tempChar;
                tempInt = Integer.parseInt(tempString);
                tempRemainder = tempInt%2;
                if (tempRemainder == 0)
                    matches++;
                if (matches == stringLength)
                    System.out.println (numberString);

I have an Adobe Flash Professionals digital classroom book and was following all steps easily until it ask me to select the text tool and change it from classic to tfl in the property inspector. I looked and all that drops down is dynamic, static, and input. Where is the TFL and Classic ? I watched adobe learning center but he was using CS5. Can anyone please help?

Hi,
Do you use Flash CS6 to follow the instructions in the classroom book? If yes, then you can find it under text drop down for an AS3 Document as shown below
If you follow the instruction in Flash CC or Flash CC2014 then you will not find this option as this is deprecated.
Thanks!

FIOS and Media Center

My Media Center PC has lost the TV signal, and will not configure. TV tuner card supports digital tv, card is working, and replaced the cable, but still no signal. Verizon support wasn't terribly helpful - any ideas? Could the switch to all digital last month now require a converter/set top box, even though the tuner card says it supports digital?

The over-the-air FCC shut-off boxes receive 8-VSB DTV and convert it to NTSC. FiOS boxesreceive 256-QAM DTV and convert it to NTSC. They are absolutely NOT the same. On the bright side, up to three are free from Verizon, AND they receive any SD signal you are subscribed to on your regular STB, not just the Off-Airs and PEGs. It is a GREAT deal. Get some before they start charging. I think they will just send them to you if you ask.

FIOS and Vista

I have two computers - a desktop and a laptop connected to my FIOS. Whenever I go online or try to, I get an error message showing trouble with accessing the network and asks if I want to diagnose the problem, most of the time, it comes back and says no problem found. One time it indicated there was a problem with the router.
Logging on is as slow or slower than when I had dial up.
I have Windows OneCar for security etc. It shows my computer is fine. I have an almost impossible time logging into the yahoo email.
I thought maybe it was the yahoo home page and changed it to the verizon central page but no change.
When this started up, I updated to the new windows explorer to see if it would make a difference but none.
I noticed the problems starting shortly after they upgraded the cable to all digital and we had to install digital boxes to all of our tv's. I didn't know if that was part of the problem. Anyone have any ideas?

Is Verizon going to acknowlege the problems with FIOS and Windows Vista

For months now, I have been reading the numerous problems Fios internet customers are having with Fios internet/Actiontech Router and Windows Vista and there has been no acknowledgement by Verizon of this current major issue.
I have also experienced the exact same issue for months now since I switched to Verizon FIOS internet. Previously I had Comcast HSI using my Windows Vista laptop. I had their service for over a year and I NEVER has a problem with the Windows Vista globe icon disappearing and loosing internet connection. The Globe always stayed on and never went away and I never lost connection when I had Comcast
I had Verizon FIOS installed last September with my Windows Vista computer and my wireless internet connection started to drop from day 1 and it has been a daily occurrence for over 5 months now. It has gotten so bad, I have had to hardwire my laptop to to be able to use the internet uninterrupted.
This is what daily scenario is:
When I turn on my laptop(with Windows Vista, I can initially get full internet access(with the globe on and it says "Local and internet). After about 10 minutes or less, the globe switches to "local only" and I can still get internet access. After another 5 or so minutes, a large X covers the globe and I lose internet connection entirely. The actiontech router wireless signal is no longer listed as one of the wireless networks. The only way for me to regain internet access is either to restart my laptop or reboot the actiontech router.
Numeorus posts here, over by DSL forums(Broadband Reports),Microsoft's website and a few othere websites detail this issue.
I am extremely shocked and surprised that Verizon has not tried to fix this issue by working with both the makers of the Actiontech Router as well as Microsoft to find out what the problem is and how to fix it.
I would just like to reiterate I strongly believe this is primarily a FIOS internet issue since I previously had Comcast HSI for over a year with the same Windows Vista laptop and I NEVER had that problem. Also, I can connect to my neighbors wireless connection(she uses Comcast HSI) and when I do, the globe stay on all the time on my computer and the internet does not lose connection.
I know that there are a couple of Verizon employees here. Please tell the higher ups who handle FIOS internet that this is a major issue that needs to be resolved as soon as possible.
P.S: Please don't tell me to go by my own router because then, I will have to deal with the issues of setting it up to work with Fios TV and the related VOD, widgets, remote DVR compatability issues to deal with. I don't think I can deal with the additional headaches.

FIOS is short for fiber optics. fiber optics is different technology than DSL.
With that said, if you search the Microsoft databases for vista issues with fiber optics, (CURRENTLY THERE IS ONLY ONE PROVIDER OF FIBER TO THE HOUSE, that being Verizon, so yes you can also search Vista issues with verizon and\or fios) and you will find that Microsoft already acknowledges this issue with their software. AND they offer you a fix.

ID CS4 and Adobe Digital Editions

One reason I purchased ID CS4 was for the ability to create ebooks using ADE. However, my first attempt to export to ADE has been far from successful.
The project is a 152-page book. It was "created" in ID CS4 and is straight text except for the publisher's logo, which appears on the title page. Each chapter is its own file, as is each element of the front matter. Three fonts are used in the publication: Arial, Formata, and Palatino. The Formata and Palatino fonts are OT fonts; they were newly purchased as OT fonts for this client. Each use of italic or bold in the book's text, excluding heads, is by a character style that includes the font family name. For example, if the text is supposed to be Palatino Italic, the character style includes both bits of information, a generic Italic is not used.
I combined all of the elements of the project into a single ID Book, which is what I used to update numbering, etc. When I export to PDF from the Book, everything works fine. When I export to Adobe Digital Editions from the Book, the following occurs:
1. Arial and Palatino are embedded but Formata is not.
2. The first and last files of the Book (i.e., the title page and the References) appear in the ePub file and are viewable in the ADE viewer, but everything between those two files, including all of the text chapters, are empty files that appear as blank pages in the ADE viewer.
What am I doing wrong? How do I
a. Get Formata embedded?
b. Get the complete project into an ePub file?
Another thought: Would the way to do this be to do each chapter as a separate export to ADE and then combine each of the separate files into a single ePub file? If so, how would one do this? I've noted that when creating an ePub file several additional informational files are created. It isn't clear to me how one would combine that information.
Also, is there a good source and/or book (or several sources and/or books) that gives step-by-step instruction information on turning a project into an ePub file? Although this project has no graphics, tables, etc., future projects will have numerous graphics, tables, etc. and so any help will be appreciated.
Thanks.

You're not actually doing anything wrong. You're experiencing a bug. Hopefully it will be fixed in an upcoming update to InDesign CS4.
The cause of the problem comes down to the spaces in the name of the font you've used in your document (i.e. Myriad Pro Bold). If an embedded font contains spaces in its name, it won't be used and Adobe Digital Editions will use its default font instead. The problem can be overcome by directly editing the EPUB file. I use Oxygen to open up the EPUB file directly, but you can also change the .epub file extension to .zip and then unarchive the package to gain access to the various files within it. Once you've opened the EPUB file, you need to modify three things: the template.css file, encryption.xml file, and the font files.
Template.css
At the top of the CSS file, you'll see font face declarations for each font you've used in your document. If your font(s) has spaces in its name, you'll notice that a %20 has replaced the space. Change each instance of the %20 to a hyphen. Here's an example:
@font-face {
font-family: Myriad Pro;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
src:url(Fonts/MyriadPro%20Bold.otf);
Change to:
@font-face {
font-family: Myriad Pro;
font-style: normal;
font-weight: bold;
src:url(Fonts/MyriadPro-Bold.otf);
Encryption.xml
For each type style you've used in your document, there will be a <enc:CipherData> element. If your font(s) has spaces in its name, you'll notice that a %20 has replaced the space here as well. Change each instance of the %20 to a hyphen. Here's an example:
<enc:CipherData>
<enc:CipherReference URI="OEBPS/Fonts/MyriadPro%20Regular.otf"/>
</enc:CipherData>
Change to:
<enc:CipherData>
<enc:CipherReference URI="OEBPS/Fonts/MyriadPro-Regular.otf"/>
</enc:CipherData>
Font Files:
Within the EPUB package is a folder called "Fonts," where all the embedded fonts reside. You need to rename the files by replacing the spaces with hyphens.
That's all there is to it. After editing and saving the files, you'll have to rearchive the package and change the .zip extension back to .epub. If you use Oxygen to edit the package, there is no rearchiving necessary. You can also use the free PDFXML Inspector, but I definitely prefer Oxygen since it provides many more tools and its not so clunky.

Hallo ,why is it that when I delete a photo ,which is backed up by time machine and western digital external hard drive , that I am able to restore the photo okay but not the titles and descriptions . I have a Macbook 4.1, mac osx 10.5.8 . Iphoto 7.1.5 ,

QUESTION.
Hallo , my question is ;whenever I delete a photo and restore it through Time machine and Western digital external hard drive , I am able to restore the photo but not the titles and descriptions . Western Digital inform me that it isn't their external hard drive problem and suggest that it is an Apple software problem ?
I am using a Macbook 4.1 , with Mac OSX 10.5.8 . I photo 7.1.5 , last modifie4d 01/05/2010 -universal . Should I be upgrading Iphoto ?
I hope that someone is able to help in this matter , as i have to restore 12000 photos !
Thanking you in anticipation.
Alan from Wigton

Hallo Kieth ,
I am not quite ready to restore the full iphoto library , as I have days of work re - imputting titles,descriptions and enhancement . I hope that your suggestion works , as I use my Macbook basically to work with digital photography. Through time , I will need to delete my library to recover more disc space and I would hate to have to spend more time re - imputting titles and descriptions all over again .
Thanks for your interest and advice.

Even if you put a credit or debit card on file with iTunes it will still use your balance FIRST.
I would suggest putting a card on file and testing to see if it will allow you to make a purchase, then removing the card from the account after successful download of an item.

What is the best way to create an MP4 (.M4V) that will play with forced subtitles in iTunes, Apple TV, and all iOS devices?

I've begun ripping my blu rays to digital format so I can store them on my NAS and access them from any device. Movies without subtitles work great, I simply use MP4 passthrough and all is well. I'm having issues with videos that have forced subtitles. I'm assuming I need to mux the video, audo and subtitle streams into an .M4V. I'm not sure how to do this. What format must the subtitle be in? SRT, AAS? Will Subler work?
My intention is that have the subtitles show no matter what. I don't want to fiddle with enabling them and disabling them. I want to watch the movie in itunes or an iOS device and have the subtitles show up without doing anything.

They are blu rays purchased before the advent of digital copies being included. What do you suggest I do? Repurchase the movies I already own?
We cannot help you on this board. What you ask is illegal to do in the United States. As Lyssa says, "You will have to search elsewhere for help." However, purchasing the movies from the iTunes Store is a legal option.

Problems with Fios and video games.

Hi,
I switched from Time Warner Cable to Fios last month and I've been having problems with my internet going down on ALL computers whenever ONE of them plays a game online. I know it sounds strange, but as far as we can tell, it's only caused by video games. Basically, whenever a game such as Counter-Strike is started, the internet will go down on every computer for about 5 minutes.
I called tech support and they had me unplug the Actiontec router and plug the cable directly into my computer. When we tried Counter Strike again it worked with no problems. The guy said the problem is a known bug with the router they gave me, but since the TV service needs the router, I can't use my old router that works fine! I switched to Fios and waited through the 6 hour install because I thought it was supposed to be faster, but it never works!
I don't want to pay the termination fee to cancel, but I need my internet to work. Anybody have any ideas??

So I guess this is a well known problem then. I followed the instructions from that site and used my own router with the Verizon router plugged in. The internet worked for the computers, but when I tried showtime on demand it was a no-go. It looks like alot of people had success with this so I'll try again when I get back from work later today. Thanks for the help.
It's really sad that Verizon makes us go through all this hassle just go get a working internet connection. My friend was going to switch when I showed him how many more HD channels I had now, but when I told him about the internet problems he changed his mind. I would have waited too if I knew they still had bugs.

I just installed itunes 10 and all it does when i open it is show me the software agreement, and if I click "accept" or "decline" it closes and does nothing else. It does the same thing when i try to play music on it. (By the way, I have Windows XP SP3.)

I just installed iTunes 10 and all it does when I open it up is show me the software license agreement, and if I click either "accept" or "decline" it closes up and does nothing else. It does the same thing when I try to play mp3 files, just opens up the license agreement and nothing else. It also doesn't recognise my iPod touch when I plug it in, thinks it's a digital camera. Please help! (By the way, I have Windows XP SP3.)

Annotation field locked and subsequent digital signatures

Hi all,
i'm testing my PAdES digital signature library in Obj-C and i encountered this kind of PDF file
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3995257/PDF/Locked.pdf
Acrobat Reader tells that the document is locked by a signature (Signature2). As far as i know locked means that the file can't be modified but is is impossible to append a digital signature too?
I tried to sign the document with my lib and as expected the second signature invalidates the first.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3995257/PDF/Sign_Locked.pdf
But... i tried to sign for the third time the previous file. I would expect that the first (locked) signature would be invalid but the second and the third would be not.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3995257/PDF/Sign_Sign_Locked.pdf
Despite my expectations, only the last signature is avalid according to Acrobat Reader.
Does the first locked signatures invalidates the subsequents? Or more simply i can't sign a Document locked PDF?
Thanks

Yes, because the first is a lock – anything you do after the fact will invalidate.

Hi fmethot,
What is the version of your router? Is it version 1 or 2? The Cisco 10521 is the last 5 digits of the serial number of your router. That is the default network name of your router.

I have FIOS and the latest version of the Airport Extreme Basestation set up in bridge mode.

OK need some technical answers I have FIOS and am forced to use their Router. I have WiFi turned off on the FIOS router and my New version Airport Exteme Basestation set up in Bridge Mode. I have CAD 5 running to all my Mac computers and a CAD 5 up to the second floor. I have an older version Airport Extreme Basestation that I would like to connect to the CAD 5 cable on the second floor where the WiFi signal is weak as the main Airport is in the basement. How would I connect the second Airport to the Airport that is in Bridge Mode? Will this setup mess up my signal strength on either CAD 5 or WiFi? I will also have one Macbook Pro plugged into the upstairs Airport. This is mainly for the WiFi for my iPad and iPhone. Details will help. Thanks.

How would I connect the second Airport to the Airport that is in Bridge Mode?
Connect from a LAN <-> port on the Bridge Mode AirPort to the WAN "O" port on the second floor AirPort and then use AirPort Utility on a Mac or iPad to set things up.
Will this setup mess up my signal strength on either CAD 5 or WiFi?
Nothing will be messed up, and you will have a much stronger WiFi signal upstairs.
If you need more details on setup.....we need to know.....
1) What model number of AirPort Extreme will be upstairs. The model number is usually embedded in the foam base on the bottom of the device. Starts with an "A" followed by four numbers. Example.....A1143.
2) What operating system you are using on your Mac, or whether you want to use the iPad for the setup...assuming that the upstairs AirPort is compatible.
