HD Insginia that will not recognize the cable signal

I have an HD insignia TV that is hooked up to an HD cable box with an HDMI cable.  When  reboot he cablebox, it sees it and it fine.  But as soon as I turn off the TV for a second, it does not recognize the cable when the TV is turned back on.   It says "not compatible".  Id I reboot, it is again fine but I cannot turn off the TV and turn it back on.  DVD and VCR both work fine.

Unfortunately its a common problem. There is a problem with the HDCP Handshake between the tv and the cable box. (See Link) Basically what it means is that you tv doesn't see the box unless it was turned on first (the tv) and the cable box follows. There are a couple things you can try. First you can try updating you tv firmware, this is done through the manufacturer's website, with the aid of a usb thumbdrive. The other option is to see if your cable provider has a newer cable box available to you. More times than not cable companies recycle boxes for years.

  • I have changed to AT&T U-verse, which has a new modem and router combined.  Safari 5.1.10 will not recognize the wifi signal, but Foxfire will.  What settings do I need to change on Safari?

    Hello SalsburgD
    The first thing I would check is to make sure that the router is using the recommended settings to get online. Another troubleshooting step is to create a new Network Location and then join your network to see if that changes things.

  • There is a 3 inch section of the window that will not recognize the mouse. It will not let you click on the icons or screen in any way in this section under the address bar. It is only in firefox where this is a problem

    There is a 3 inch section of the window that will not respond or recognize the mouse. It will not let you click on the icons or screen in any way. This is the only program we are experiencing this problem with.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • I am trying to hook my macbook pro to a sony bravia TV via DVI to HDMI cable and the TV will not recognize the signal. The same set up has worked with three other, though different televisions. Any thoughts?

    I am trying to hook my MacBook Pro to a Sony Bravia TV via DVI to HDMI cable and the TV will not recognize the signal. I have used the same setup with three other TV's, each a different brand with no problem. Any ideas?

    Is the TV set to take input from the HDMI connection?
    On your computer, if you open the Displays preferences and do not see an Arrangement tab (or there is an Arrangement tab that shows only a single monitor) then there is something physically wrong with your connection.  Try clicking Detect Displays just to see if the computer can now sense the presence of the connection.  Check your connections.
    If you do have an Arrangement tab, and it shows two screens, then click Gather Windows to bring the TV's Displays preferences on to your main screen if the TV is not yet showing an image.  Set the proper resolution (probably 720p, 1080i, or 1080p).  Set the refresh rate (probably 60Hz) if that preference is shown.  You should see a picture at this point.  I  recommend turning off mirrored displays if it is enabled.

  • IPod 5th Gen will not recognize the fact that it actually has music on it

    This question has been asked before, but not answered. With that in mind, I will ask you this: Though my iPod does definitely have 18 gigs of music on it, as I can see them when I choose to view it as a portable media device, or whatever, and search manually through windows explorer, it will not recognize the music in either iTunes or on my iPod. I have not restored my iPod because that would be a pain. I have had it for no more than two weeks and this occurrence has made me very upset. It happened when I was working on a playlist. There was a beep sound as if it had ejected and then the black and white screen with the apple came on as if it had been reset. Subsequently, all music disappeared from the iTunes sub menu of my iPod. Furthermore, even though in the "about" on my iPod it says there is music there, I can not see it. When that happened there was a windows message saying that there was a corrupted file and that I should use the "chkdisc" feature. I did that, and nothing was fixed. Please help.

    If you want to try to "repair" your iPod to get the music to show back up...

    But again, it would be better to restore. Also, 3rd party software does not always work flawlessly.
    To fix the error that came up, along with getting your music to show back up properly (without the risks of 3rd party software), you need to restore your iPod. If all of your music is on your computer/in iTunes, you won't loose any of it.
    See this for more info...

    Da Gopha: What to do if Windows displays an "iTunes.exe - Corrupt File" message
    If the iPod was just not showing you the songs even though they are there, the first option would be better. However, since you are getting the chkdsk error, you should/need to restore your iPod.

  • Whenever I update from Windows 7 get error 1602, iPod shows USB connection to iTunes, but iTunes will not recognize the device. None of the Apple documentation helps.

    Whenever I update from Windows 7 get error 1602, iPod shows USB connection to iTunes, but iTunes will not recognize the device. None of the Apple documentation helps. The Apple Mobile Device driver is loaded and operating. The anti-virus software and firewall are not at fault (were uninstalled, and made no difference). The iTunes on my older machine running Vista does recognize the inoperative iPod (iTunes has detetced an iPod in recovery mode) and allows me to restore the device. Can anyone help to resolve this problem on the Windows 7 PC?

    So yu tried all of this:
    Error 1600, 1601, 1602: Try the following steps to resolve this error:
    Ensure proper USB isolation troubleshooting has been performed, and test with a known-good cable.
    Follow the steps listed for Error 1604.
    This error may be resolved by disabling, deactivating, or uninstalling third-party security, antivirus, and firewall software. See steps in this article for details on troubleshooting security software.
    Error 1604: This error is often related to USB timing. Try changing USB ports, uninstalling and reinstalling USB ports, and other available USB troubleshooting steps (troubleshooting USB connections, device not recognized properly, computer won't recognize a FireWire or USB device). If you are using a dock, bypass it and connect directly to the white Apple USB dock connector cable. If the issue persists on a known-good computer, the device may need service.
    If the issue is not resolved by USB isolation troubleshooting, and another computer is not available, try these steps to resolve the issue:
    Connect the device to iTunes, confirm that the device is in Recovery Mode. If it's not in Recovery Mode,put it into Recovery Mode.
    Restore and wait for error 1604.
    When prompted, click OK.
    Close and reopen iTunes while iPhone remains connected.
    iPhone should now be recognized in Recovery Mode again.
    Try to restore again.
    If the steps above do not resolve the issue, try restoring using a known-good USB cable, computer, and network connection.
    If you had then time for an appointment at ther Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Will not recognize the Lucid LG when connected with USB

    My Dell  will not recognize the Lucid LG when connected with USB. Both the computer and phone gives a split second prompt that they are connected but then goes away immediately.  After reconnecting it several times however it will finally recognize the mass storage. How can I get away from the hassle of multiple re-connections before it finally recognizes that connection?

        That's some helpful information about your issue samrmusso! Some recommendations that I have for you is to try a different USB port on the computer to see if it isn't an issue with that specific USB port.  Are you using the cable that came with the device (recommended) or a 3rd party cable (may not support data transfering properly)? You can also try restarting both the device and computer and retest. It's possible that there's a driver conflict on your Dell. Here's how to check for these types of conflicts: http://goo.gl/qH4m5

  • While editing a scanned pdf, Acrobat will not recognize the current font & change to very different font. How can I choose the font I want to match the current document?

    While editing a scanned pdf, Acrobat will not recognize the current font & change to very different font. How can I choose the font I want to match the current document?

     Thanks for answering. The version is XI.0.10. I just did the update yesterday hoping that I could now properly edit a scanned pdf document. Yes, it's happening on most all scanned documents. I followed your steps & found the list of fonts used in the document & then attempted to edit. The same occurs. When I type in a correction, I get an error alert... "the original font (in this case Fd 5805) is not available or can't be used in editing. Acrobat is using the font Minion Pro in its place." 
    When I select the text & right click as you suggested, my only choices are cut, copy, delete or select all, no "edit text".
    I have no other options to choose another font. Thanks for any help you can direct my way.

  • I recently bought a new laptop because my old one crashed.  The only backup I had for my music was on my ipod.  My new computer will not recognize the ipods music and I can't transfer anything.  What do I do???

    I recently bought a new laptop because my old one crashed.  The only backup I had for my music was on my ipod.  My new computer will not recognize the ipods music and I can't transfer anything.  It keeps asking me to sync the ipod to this computer, but I'm scared to lose all my music.  I want to transfer some of the music onto my iphone but I can't.  I'm very frustrated and wish I knew more about computers at the moment!?!?  What do I do???

    You will need the help of some sort of 3rd party software to help you copy the content from your Shuffle back to your PC.  Once you have done that, you can reimport this music into iTunes and configure it to sync to your new Shuffle.
