Getting quite regular 'format not recognised'

When I try to select one of the movies for streaming from my computer to apple tv there will be a long pause with eventually a yellow triangle and 'could not be played as format not recognised'
This only began when I purchased an airport extreme.
The apple tv, and computers all connect via ethernet into the extreme.
To clarify the formats are correct and have been watched before. Infact frequently if I page pack then select the same movie again, it will more often than not start up just fine.
Has anyone else had this annoying problem?

Smokerz is probably right that when the network link is poor, it shows this error message which is stupid. It should instead say that the network link is of poor quality to support video streaming.
Having said that, my PC which is inside the computer cabinet shows excellent network link quality (-86dbmV noise level compared to a signal level of -50) and connected at 54mbps to my router. The Apple TV and the Philips HDTV is place above the same cabinet. If ATV doesn't have enough error recovery mechanism, then it is definitely a toy for the geeks.
Imagine if we were to connect to our remote servers once in 10 attempts and that connection would drop off after 2 minutes and then we were asked to reboot the servers and power cycle the workstations. Imagine that!

I get error "audio format not compatable" when downloading music from the itunes store

I get error "audio format not compatable" when syncing ipod classic. Music purchased from itunes store.

If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copy of the track and try redownloading a fresh one. See the following document for instructions:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the item that is not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the item, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" link next to the item.

"date format not recognised" in DBMS_SESSION, on page over db_link

Hi,
I have an Apex 4.0 page which has a region that gets data constituted from a connection across a database link.
The host database is 11.1.0.6 and the remote database is 9.0.1. (Both Standard Edition)
I am using EPG.
Intermittently, I receive the following error (having turned debugging on):
Wed, 25 Aug 2010 10:21:53 GMT
ORA-20867: ORA-01821: date format not recognized
ORA-02063: preceding line from CLIFF
ORA-06512: at "SYS.DBMS_SESSION", line 157
ORA-06512: at "APEX_040000.WWV_FLOW_LANG", line 387
ORA-06512: at "APEX_040000.WWV_FLOW", line 9284

ORA-06512: at "APEX_040000.F", line 294
ORA-06512: at line 30
I'm somewhat confused as to what is causing the generation of this error.
After receiving this error, anything I else that I do that involves building 'pages' works perfectly fine. I can login/out, no problems.
However, if I try and RUN any page within my application thereafter (all of these access local DB information apart the 1 that generates the error), I continue to receive exactly the same error - no matter which page I am trying to access.
Help?
- Tony.

Hi Patrick,
No. I haven't yet applied the patchset. May do that this afternoon now.
I don't believe I've manually set any date formats anywhere. Just entered the Builder with default options (apart from choosing a theme) and away I went!!
What surprises me is that the application has no problems viewing all the data. The functionality all seems fine. I had this working on a previous setup for months,. without any problems, using version 3.2. (This wasn't migrated though, this was a rebuild from scratch.)
From further "tests", the error seems to occur when I edit the page that involves the remote data.
Normally, a user would land on the page from having used a hyperlink column on a previous page's classic report region.
The point at which it all starts to go wrong is if I connect to the page as normal, but then EDIT the page, and then try and re-run it.
The problem with the date format then re-occurs repetitively, no matter which page I try and view. Sometimes pages will load some components, but then generate odd errors with others. e.g. I have a small series of 3 dial charts, all with slightly varying SQL series (same SQL, slightly different where clause). Now I am seeing that 1 may load and 2 may give odd flash errors...
Right now, I just tried to Export my application - and I still got given the date format error!! Sub-sequent retries allowed the operation to complete successfully.
The only way I seem to be able to eradicate the recurring errors is to kill all the currently connected ANONYMOUS users in the DB, and then relog to the application.

How do I download RAW pictures from a Panasonic TZ60 into Elements, keeps telling me file damaged or in format not recognised.

I have just purchased a Panasonic TZ60 which is producing some good quality pictures. The camera can be set to save picture in jpeg, RAW and jpeg and RAW but I have been unable to download any RAW pictures into either iPhoto or Elements. Both programmes see the file but won't download and comes up with message saying file damaged or not recognised.
I have tried just transferring RAW picture file to my desktop and then into Elements, still no joy.

Thanks John
Missed updating so went in search and found update path and that has resolved and can now pull in RAW, just need to crack iPhoto now and will be happy again.
Thanks for help

GZIP format not recognised by winzip or Java

Hi,
We are trying to achieve the following.
We are trying to zip some data in ABAP using the following CL_ABAP_GZIP and put it into a stream. Unfortunately, when we read the stream in the java client we get a "Not in GZIPFormat exception" and the same does not open using winzip. I have a feeling it is something to do with code redundancy checks (crc) which is not done in the ABAP class. Has anyone faced the same issue? Any suggestions?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Karthik

Hi Karthik,
did you check SAP note 644640? It might help you check actual kernel release.

Nikon D90 RAW format not recognised even with latest updates

Hello,
I just tried to import RAW pictures from my new D90 on my Mac (recently installed Leopard, with latest combo update + Aperture update) but it doesn't recognise the format. I can see thumbnails, and JPEG pictures are working fine.
I also tried to manually install the update where D90 RAW support was added (nov 08), but it tells me there is no need to install it since I have a "newer version".
What can I do ?
Do I need to reinstall Leopard and update everything one at a time without combos ?
Thank you
Julien

I figured out what the problem was !
I have a standalone edition of Leopard, and no iLife installed. I installed the iLife from another Mac and it magically worked !
It would have been nice to know that before, though.

1. Is the printer connected with a cable, or is it wireless?
2. Have you installed the printer driver?

DVDs not recognised since updating to 10.6.8

Since updating to 10.6.8 I get the message format not recognised when inserting DVDs movies / recordable media etc. Any ideas.

Just to clarify: DVD movie discs inserted into my iMac come up with the message "the disk you inserted was not readable by this computer." Data, software install disks and audio CD's work fine. I have tried repairing the disk and permissions, as well as creating a new user account. I applied the 10.6.8 update to my wife's macbook and no problem reading DVD movie disks. So is this problem specific to the iMac? I have a 2.66 core duo with 4GB of RAM. Any ideas anyone?

Hi, I am trying to install some programs (on mac book pro mac osx 10.6.8) that are downloaded in "dmg" file format. These are antivirus and security related programs. Unfortunately when I try to open the downloaded file, this does not open and I get message it is not recognised. I have also tried using Disk Utility but I get an error "unable to attach"l. This just started recently. I have downloaded the file several times but same problem recurs. Thanks for your help
PS: Other files directly downloaded from apple work fine.

curious to know your reservations about Kapersky!
They screwed up the first Flashback removal tool very badly, locking several users out of their accounts permanently. It took a day or so for them to react and post a revised tool, but the damage had been done.
They are one of several formerly PC only vendors who rushed to the Mac front back in the spring after the Flashback scare. I would advise giving all of those folks time to prove they really understand OS X before installing it on any of my Macs. There are several others who have proven themselves.
Since you are running what I assume to be a fully up-to-date OS X 10.6.8 you are not vulnerable to any currently known malware capable of impacting OS X or other Mac software. That's no guarantee there won't be something new show up tomorrow, but the chances of any commercial anti-malware software catching it before Apple can react is pretty slim, IMHO.
Now if you are concerned about Windows malware, that's a different story.

Same mp4 video plays fine from one drive but not recognised from another??

Everytime I drag and copy my MP4 video files from my internal drive to an external one, it then no longer plays from the external drive. The external drive is working fine, and if I render the video directly to that drive, it previews and plays fine. This only happens to MP4 files I copy from internal drive to this external drive
Something seems to happen to the file when I copy and paste it or drag and drop it.
As I drag it I and when it lands in the folder I copied it to, the preview thumbnail is here for a split second, then switches to a regular QT icon - when i try to open it, it then says file format not recognised - even though the exact same file plays fine from the original location on my internal hard drive
This is driving me mad - any ideas - must be something simple?
Any help really appreciated

I used MPEGStreamClip to transcode the audio file to AIFF (over 1500 kbs @ 48khz) with better results. With the iTunes volume set at full and with the volume adjustment option set at 100% (which is 50% above flat), the AIFF file played through iTunes, produces about the same decibels as playing the file through VLC with the VLC volume at full.
Thanks much for your help.
I believe some of the problem is with the original file being a bit too quiet to begin with. Putting it into analog terms, it's kind of like a 1 watt pre-amp signal when it needs to be a 4. Do you know of a way to increase the audio output level through the cable box fire wire port so it can be captured at a higher audio level to begin with?
