How do I switch back and forth between Roku and Verizon FIOS TV?

I just purchased a Roku 3500R Streaming Stick (HDMI). I set it up with no problem. What I can't figure out is how to switch easily between viewing the Roku and viewing regular TV. The only way I was able to get rid of the Roku screen was to unplug the Roku from the one HDMI connection on my TV, and replace it with the HDMI connection from my set-top box. If I got an HDMI splitter, would there be a way to switch back and forth without unplugging things?
FYI, my TV is a Sony Model KDL-32S2010. Any suggestions would be gratefully accepted!

Looks like your TV only has 1 HDMI port.
A splitter won't work. Would need to get an HDMI switch.
Or just get component cables (will need 4) to run from FIOS box to Component ports (3 video and 2 audio) on the back of your TV.
Then just use the TV menu to switch back and forth.

    It's clearly not impossible, just different than you expect. Create your playlist as you want it to appear in the Current tab (meaning don't dump every single song from your library in there, just the ones you want) and then save the playlist.

  • Suddenly my entire screen now has little dots on it that flash back and forth between pink and blue. What's up?

    I was online (on Facebook) when suddenly my coputer screen developed these little dots--uniform across it not just in a browser window--and they started flashing back and forth between blue and pink. The computer froze up and I had to reboot. It hasn't gone away and it's terribly annoying. What should I try to do?

    It may be a problem with your video electronics - possibly heat related. Shutdown the PB & leave it overnight. Then startup & see if the dots appear.

  • HP PhotoSmart 6525 Switching Back-and-Forth between Wireless and USB

    Hi,
    I setup my HP PhotoSmart 6525 using the "Wireless with a router" setup instructions (i.e. not Wireless Direct).  I am able to print from my laptop through the wireless network.  I would also like to be able to print from my laptop using the USB connection at times when my laptop is physically sitting next to the printer.  At times when it is not, I want to continue to be able to print wirelessly.
    Is it possible to setup the print drivers on the laptop so that I can easily switch back-and-forth between USB printing and wireless network printing?  I suspect that it may not be possible because the user guide has a section describing how to "Change from a USB connection to a wireless network" that has you click on a menu item called "Convert a USB connected printer to wireless".  There are no instructions for how to convert back to USB.  Moreover, the use of the word "convert" does not make it sound like you can maintain both print methods simultaneously on a single computer.
    Does anyone know whether it can be done, and if so how?
    Thanks in advance,
    Paul2
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Hey Paul2,
    I see you have the HP Photosmart 6525 installed for Wireless printing capacity and would also like to add a USB driver so that it is available for use when near the printer.  Please follow the steps below to add a copy of the printer for USB printing.  The below steps are for Windows 7 and below based computers.  If you have Windows 8, then the steps will be slightly different so let me know.  Please let me know if you have a Mac, because I can provide those steps at that time.
    Press the Start menu of the computer
    Select All Programs
    Open the HP Folder
    Open the folder for the HP Photosmart 6520 series
    Select "Printer Setup and Software"
    Select the option to Add a new printer
    Select the USB option
    Plug the USB cable in when the software requests it and proceed through the install process
    This will leave the Wireless driver support in place and add a second printer under the Devices and Printers window for USB printing.  The USB printer may contain Copy 1 in the name as a differentiation, however the other one should also state Network in the printer name to indicate it is the wireless option.
    I hope this helps,
    Jason

  • How do i switch back and forth between vertical and horizontal tab bar?

    my lovely vertical left side tab bar switched suddenly when i clicked something accidentally. i'd like to know how to get it back. i got it back months ago when i also clicked, accidentally, but the "get back" was a surprise, too, since i didn't realize what i'd clicked.

    Hold shift while dragging the tab bar back to where you want it.

  • How can I go back and forth between Word and FrameMaker

    I have a client who has all their documentation in FrameMaker, but needs to export to MS Word to distribute files for editing by various parties. Once edited, my client needs to bring the updated text back into Frame, ideally without having to re-format the entire file. It was suggested that RoboHelp 10 might work, but they are using unstructured FrameMaker.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Jeff's recommending the best tool and workflow; I'll happily second that
    because it creates a much better audit trail of who wrote what and what
    happened to it than Word.
    If you have to user Word, export isn't too big a problem, although I'd
    strongly recommend MIF2go instead of RoboHelp for this. The problem is
    going to be round tripping the comments back in... best you can do is use
    Track Changes in Word, get it technically correct, and then copy in Word
    and paste as text back into Frame.
    It'll be pretty laborious hand work. PDFs and electronic review would be
    much easier.

  • When i try to purchase an app that is free, i click the install green button and it just goes back to the free button and i can't download it?  it just toggles back and forth between free and install.  Please help.

    When I try to purchase any free app, I try to click the green install button and it toggles between the install and free icons in the app store.  Tried rebooting and also syncing iphone to computer but no luck.  Any suggestions?

    If resetting the iPad doesn't help, try these things.
    Quit the App Store app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again. Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to download an app again.
    If that fails, try downloading something in iTunes. There is free content in there so find something that you don't have to pay for and download it. If that works, try the App store again.

  • Best way to send files back and forth between PC and Mini

    I know something similar like this has been asked a million times, but I couldn't quite find the answer I need. Basically I work on the PC and my new Mac Mini, and I want to be able to quickly share files between both of them. I know I could use a USB stick, but seeing both machines are sharing the same internet connection on the same router I was thinking there's a way to do it with that or wirelessly? migration assistant seems to just be about sending files to the mac and that's it.
    Thanks for any advice.

    That would be a standard Windows issue, but for starters, take a look here:

  • Apple TV -- going back and forth between primary and secondary library

    If have a good deal of music and pictures in the primary library of Apple TV, is there any reason why can't for a while switch to streaming additional pictures and photos from iTunes? Does the process involved in doing this act to delete materials in primary library? Understand that can't do both at once.
    Thanks.

    (Please excuse my unsupported nomenclature)
    A primary library will both sync and stream (with the exception of photos which have to be streamed). Anything in your primary library which you have not opted to sync will automatically stream, unless you have instructed it not to do so. Any content which is currently synced, which is subsequently unchecked for syncing will then be streamed.

  • Files back and forth between leopard and win 7

    I'm thinking about installing win 7 on my mac pro. I'll be using both win and leopard at the same time.
    Can I access files that were made on my windows drive from leopard?
    Macs and PC don't use the same drive format right?

    NTFS is seen as read-only, so yes you can access files from Leopard.
    Put Windows 7 on its own drive, makes life easier.

    yes, that's correct.

    make sure you are looking in the right place. It's Library/Preferences in your home folder not at the root level of your hard drive.
    If you are using Mail, the file is definitely there.

  • HELP! How can I switch back and forth from LT to FCE to sync sound?

    I'm using LT 1.2.1 and FCE 3.0. I haven't used it for 2 or 3 years, but people in this forum have been amazing at helping me get an old project working again.
    Here's my latest question. I swore back then there was a way to move back and forth between LT and FCP so I wouldn't have to render my LT files each time I wanted to drop it into FCP.
    Here's what I'm doing:
    I've created an entire "movie" in LT that now needs to be fine-tuned to be sync'd up with a professional voiceover, which is why I'm using FCP. The only way I can figure out how to make sure the LT file is going to be sync'd with the audio is to render the movie in LT, import it into FCE, see if the audio works with it, if not, I go back to LT, move things around, then re-render, import into FCE, and hope it all sync's.
    I think there was an easier way to go back and forth between the two.
    Along the same lines, is there a way to get the audio from FCE (or some sort of a representation) into LT? The LT file must be adapted to the audio, and if I could "see" the audio in LT, it would be infinitely easier.
    Thanks!
    Bob

    LiveType does not support any kind of audio, Bob.
    Go through your movie in the FC Timeline and set markers at the relevant cue points by pressing M.
    Pressing M a second time whilst sitting on the marker, will open a dialog where you can type a suitable description in the name field. Keep the description short -it might help to take notes too.
    Export a copy of the movie (including markers) and bring it into LiveType with File > Place background Movie. The markers will show up at the top of the LT timeline, with their descriptions.
    Delete the background from LiveType when you have everything lined up. Save your LT project file and import it into FCE. You can use the project file exactly like a video clip.
    If you need to go back to LiveType for changes, right click the LT file in FCE's Timeline. Choose "Open in Editor". This will open the project in LT. Make changes, save the file and it will update in FCE.

  • How do I delete email messages so that they stop "bouncing" back and forth between my devices?

    How do I delete email messages so that they stop "bouncing" back and forth between my Macbook, ipad, and iphone?

    Hi ST,
    The first screen shot is the left (main) screen after I moved CS6 to the right screen (second screen shot). As you can see the CS6 panels are in front of MS Word. If I click in the Word document they go behind Word. If I switch over to on the right screen the panels reappear but in front of Word again. So I either have to switch back and forth between the two screens if I want to work in CS6 or manually movee the panels over to the Right Screen. It is rather awkward to have to do that. Make sense?

  • How can I switch back and forth from Classic to Tiger

    How can I switch back and forth from OS9.2.2 to Tiger without restarting? I want Classic as my startup system.

    I think that the number of clicks to open a file is a rather shortsighted way to compare two operating systems.<<</div>
    Well excuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuse ME!
    I happen to think it's a pain to click twice on files when I'm used to clicking just once.
    But Tiger is a nice operating system. I enjoy that it has much more capabilities than the OS9. I mean, Tiger keeps up with the advancing internet. My beef is really against OS9. I can open OS9 in Tiger but not Tiger in OS9.
