HT1498 When renting a movie for Apple TV the movie stopped several times interrupting play. Can anyone explain why that might happen?
WE rented our first movie using Apple TV and at the beginning of the movie it stopped several times and we had to manually restart it. Any suggestions as to how to prevent this?
What is your actual connection speed (speedtest.net)?
Are you on wifi? If so have you checked for interference using istumbler or netstumbler or tried Ethernet?
Are you using your ISPs DNS?

I recently installed Acrobat Pro X on my Mac. I initially accepted the terms of agreement, but then every few seconds the same prompted window for the terms of agreement keeps popping up. Can anyone explain why this is happening, and how to resolve?
Have you tried reinstalling the original drive? Same symptoms with it?

My iMessage doesn't work on my iPad. My software is up to date, wifi is working, apple ID is working but the verification stops and goes back to sign on. Why does this happen?
Look at no. 5 in this text which was copied from Apple's support site for troubleshooting Messages and FaceTime activation.
Troubleshooting Apple ID activation
After each step, toggle iMessage and FaceTime off and then on again in Settings > Messages and Settings > FaceTime.
Update to the latest version of iOS.
Ensure that you have an active Internet connection. You can complete activation using Wi-Fi or a cellular data connection. Check your Wi-Fi network using standard Wi-Fi network troubleshooting.
If you receive an error when signing in to your Apple ID, visit myinfo.apple.com, sign in to your account, and ensure that the primary email address has been verified.
Ensure that FaceTime has not been restricted: Settings > General > Restrictions > FaceTime.
In Settings > General > Date & Time, ensure that Set Automatically is on. If Set Automatically is on, but the incorrect time zone is displayed, turn Set Automatically off and then choose the correct time zone, date, and time. Then turn Set Automatically on again.
Enable iMessage and FaceTime while connected to another Wi-Fi network in a different location.

I purchased the Killers new album and for some reason now my computer says it can't find the files. So I tried to download the album again off my iTunes acount but the cloud button won't appear. Does anyone know why this is happening?
These are user-to-user forums, you are not talking to Apple here.
Audiobooks (and ringtones) are currently a one-time only download. I believe that they are all supplied to Apple by audible.com, so I assume that it's them who are requiring the one-time only download restriction. To get it onto your other devices you will need to sync it via a computer. Depending upon what country that you are in, Audible.com have their own app (Audiobooks from Audible) so you might be able to buy direct from them, though I don't know whether you can buy within their app or download audiobooks directly from them within the app e.g. whether they need to be copied via a computer. -
My ipod 60gb classic is showing as fully charged until I connect it to my pc when it comes up with the error message, 'please wait very low battery' and the little wheel goes round and nothing happens, can anyone explain why this is and what i can do?
I have worked my way through the assistant and nothing works. I have tried connecting in disc mode but although the screen on the ipod is showing that the device is charged and that it is in disc mode as soon as I connect it to the computer it comes up with the error message 'please wait very low battery' and stays like that until I disconnect when it appears to be OK again. I have tried on both pc and mac.
BTW the ipod is an ipod video not classic if that makes any difference.

when trying to sync my iphone in itunes i keep getting the error message "itunes cannot sync apps because the apps installed on the iphone could not be determined." can anyone explain what this means?
I received the same error message after I had recently updated iTunes to 10.5.1 and I had wirelessly updated 13 apps. I had to go into iTunes and select Apps, on the bottom right it said I needed to update 13 apps. I updated the apps via iTunes and then synced again without an issue.

Can anyone explain why on my iPhone 4S, whenever I play music, it won't hold my place in the song? I pause it, and then when I go back later, it's all the way back at the beginning? A google search was not very helpful, any tips would be great!

My G4 desktop won't cold start. I have to plug in to the outlet for about 15 minutes every time. Can anyone explain why? Otherwise, the desktop runs fine.
The battery is new, and I zapped the little button on the main board once. I've noticed that the power supply plug is a little longer than the usual one for G4, and the AGP slot has an extra slot, which is black and about half inch long.Hi Ursula,
the AGP slot has an extra slot, which is black and about half inch long.
I believe that is for ADC Monitor power if you had one, or a card with ADC, like the little tab on this one...
I think your startup problem is bad capacitors in the power supply or on the logic board, and the need to bleed off their charge before they work right to start. -

I am working on a friend of mine's 15g ipod(W/dock connector)and I am having the same trouble except it does it to all the songs. I have tried reseting it multiple times, but to no avail.
I am not sure that this runs on windows XP, it is absolutly archaic (compared to my 5th gen. 30g video).
Help?

I just bought a second hand iPhone 5, but the sim tray seems to be for a sim sized ~14x8mm, thinner but longer than a nano SIM (~12x9mm). Can anyone explain why, and how to get a SIM to fit?
You would have to ask the person you bought the phone from to explain why.

Working with iDVD on a project, there is a box in the lower left corner and sometimes another in the lower right corner. Scrolling over the one in the lower left corner, I get a message indicating that this box hides or shows the intro movie. I have checked and unchecked the box, but see nothing different in the project. Nor can I figure out what is meant by "intro movie." Can anyone explain?
Go to iDVD Help and type in Intro Movie, and you will get the full version of this:
Many iDVD themes have “motion menus” that include animations or video that loop, or play repeatedly, until the viewer clicks a menu button. Themes with motion menus have a motion icon in the lower-right corner.
In addition to background video, iDVD motion menus may also feature an intro, or short animation, that plays once before the part that loops. Other motion menus also include an “outro” that plays after the viewer clicks a button, serving as a transition between the menu and the selected content.
An example of an iDVD 6.0 theme with an intro and an outro is Reflection White Main. In this theme, the first drop zones appear in the intro, and the buttons and title appear just before the looping part of the background video. In the outro, everything flies offscreen after the viewer clicks a button.
iDVD provides tools for viewing these motion menus without going into preview mode, which is especially helpful when you are filling drop zones, and for turning the intro or outro off.
Here are ways to view and edit the background movie:
◼
Drag the diamond-shaped motion playhead along the scrubber bar (shown below), to view the background movie, stopping wherever you like.
(If you don’t see the motion playhead in iDVD, choose View > Show Motion Playhead.)
◼
Deselect the checkboxes at the left and right end of the scrubber bar if you don’t want to use the intro or outro, respectively, in your DVD menu.
The scrubber bar shows the intro and outro as shaded areas at the beginning and end.
You can also control the intro and outro from the Menu Info window. With your pointer over the menu (and with no buttons or text objects selected), press Command-I to open that window. Select or deselect the Intro and Outro checkboxes in the Background section of the window.
NOTE: If you drag your own movie to a motion menu background, the outro is automatically removed. To customize the background and keep the outro, use a still image in the menu background instead of a movie. -
Can anyone please explain why my Apple wireless mouse keeps disconnecting from my imac? The batteries are good and the mouse in good clean order. Never had an issue previoulsy but now every 4 or 5 minutes the mouse diconnects and takes 20 seconds or so to connect again. Anyone else experienced this one?
Thanks
Jon.Some folk have reported a similar issue apparently caused by the batteries being a bit loose in their box. The suggested fix for that is to insert a thin piece of cardboard between the battery cover and the batteries.

Can anyone explain why my new Apple TV is slower than my ROKU player ?
I have a DSL internet connection I purchase movies from Amazon & iTunes. My Amazon purchases are available instantly while my Apple purchase is telling me 2 hours remaining to download ! What is that about ?!!!!! I am using the same DSL connection for both purchases. I am returning my Apple TV sticking with my ROKU PLAYER a much better product and more options other than iTunes & Netflix. I have Amazon to rent from as well plus 100's of other channels to choose from.
Disappointed loyal Apple fan.Does your Mac have Wireless 802.11N? Both the router and the Mac must have N enabled to get the speed. ATV to Router will be at N speeds, but this does not matter if the bottleneck is between the Mac and the Router.
Newer iMacs and MacBooks have N, If you bought before 2007, maybe not. Maybe check your system profiler to see which you have.
For your initial sync, you may want to use an ethernet cable. See the Apple Knowledgebase article on how to do this. Once the initial sync is done, the incremental syncs should go pretty well with either g or n.
I have n. My wife's Mac has g. She is able to stream video to the ATV with no problem. We are using the Airport Extreme, though, not the Belkin.
