HT1725 Why does the download start again for the start. I only hve access to a 3G wifi connection so one tv episode had cost me about $10 I'm download costs because of several interruptions.

Why does the download start again for the start. I only hve access to a 3G wifi connection so one tv episode had cost me about $10 I'm download costs because of several interruptions. Is there a way to change that?

Among the alternatives not mentioned... Using a TiVo DVR, rather than the X1; a Roamio Plus or Pro would solve both the concern over the quality of the DVR, as well as providing the MoCA bridge capability the poster so desperately wanted the X1 DVR to provide. (Although the TiVo's support only MoCA 1.1.) Just get a third-party MoCA adapter for the distant location. Why the hang-up on having a device provided by Comcast? This seems especially ironic given the opinions expressed regarding payments over time to Comcast. If a MoCA 2.0 bridge was the requirement, they don't exist outside providers. So couldn't the poster have simply requested a replacement XB3 from the local office and configured it down to only providing MoCA bridging -- and perhaps as a wireless access point? Comcast would bill him the monthly rate for the extra device, but such is the state of MoCA 2.0. Much of the OP sounds like frustration over devices providing capabilities the poster *thinks* they should have.

  • Why does IOS 7 enlarge pictures for the wallpaper and then disallow you to make them smaller to fit the screen?

    Why does IOS 7 enlarge pictures for the wallpaper and then disallow you to make them smaller to fit the screen?

    Now correct me if I'm wrong but I am sure I have read that the parallax effect in iOS 7 is the main reason behind wallpapers not being able to be shrunk. However, even disabling the effect will not allow you to resize the pictures like you could in previous versions of iOS, so as Skydiver119 said, it kind of is a glitch. If you are like me, and don't regularly change your wallpaper, then it may be worth creating a photoshop document which is slightly larger than your screen resolution(400px in each direction or so) and then placing your picture to suit, before copying it your device. Obviously, this would not be ideal if you were changing your wallpaper daily or very regularly as it would be a bit of a hassle having to do this every time you wanted to change your wallpaper.
    Hope this Helps!

    Unfortunately yes, though technology would never move on if it kept to older standards and did not strive to do more.
    The app store always gives you the option to use a previous version of the app IF it is available for your device.
    Sorry but you are stuck without new hardware.

  • TS1702 why does it take so long for the updates to download on my ipad?

    why does it take so long to for the undated Apps to download??

    First shut down the text app and clear both
    cache and data and do a normal power cycle. Follow that with  a system cache clear and then restart the text app again and restore your preferred settings for the app.

  • Is it possible to change iWork files on your iMac without having to upload the modified version to iCloud and downloading it again for the next use ?

    Recently I am getting more and more familiar with Numbers, Pages, KeyNote and I have to acknowledge they look smart in many aspects compared to Office for Mac programs ( ..only a bit of time to learn some minor things..). But what really surprises me is that while shifting from MobileMe to ICloud, Apple is not providing a real , full-service, cloud-computing platform for those who , like me, makes use of it mostly for work or business purposes.. I mean, you can do whatever from your Ipad or Iphone ( besides clearly ignoring the necessity one may build up folders with any kind of file in it, not just one categoory..) and every file you manage from these mobile devices, get saved and stored in the new modified version.. But try doing the same form your Imac or McBook Air and you wil have to download from Icloud your file, work on it and having to re-upload onto Icloud back again ==> syncing is not authomatic as it used to be by Idisk in MobileMe  !!.. A real nightmare for those who work with Apple, in my opinion.
    One last thing.. I am having trouble at dragging and dropping PDF files onto Icloud, doesn't accept its format.. Although PDF files are mentioned as acceptable at Pages , for example...
    I can't see the reasons for all this.. At first I thought this was all being done in order to move more and more users from Windows office to IWork programs, if it were for this, I'd be keen on changing, also because I love Iworks programs.. But I found out it's not !.. Unless people at Apple think that all business driven users of former MobileMe should quit their Imac and start working 8-10 hrs a day with the Ipad   :-) !!
    No fear, I know there are plenty of cloud-computing services doing the same as IDisk, but I can't understand why Apple has given so little attention to such needs, that , I guess, are probably the same by many other Mac users..
    Thankful for any help-support-opinion on this,
    Maurizio

    m,
    You can submit Feedback to Apple from the Numbers menu. That's the official channel for comments about the app and suggestions for improvement. The Apple officials don't visit these discussions except to maintain the decorum.

  • Why does it take so long for the iPhone to recognize when space has been freed up for photos?

    The short story:
    I try to take a photo using the built in camera app. I get the dreaded 'no enough storage' message.
    I then delete a bunch of photos, podcasts, etc. effectively freeing up plenty of space to take a photo.
    Nope - iPhone Camera still things there is no space available.
    After some unknown time delay - 10 minutes or more, in many cases, it will FINALLY let me take a photo.
    The longer and more detailed story:
    I know EVERYONE gets this message at one time or another and I know how to resolve it: "Cannot Take Photo - There is not enough available storage to take a photo. You can manage your storage in Settings."
    Fine. I understand that. I'm out of space on my phone (not iCloud, as some users seem to confuse). It's a no brainer - you don't have enough space on your phone to take a new picture. Again - fine, I get that.
    What I DON'T get, and what drives me absolutely NUTS, is that I will then go through my photos and delete a dozen or so that I don't really want, easily freeing up a good 20Mb or more, then when I try to take a photo again, I STILL GET THE out of space MESSAGE! Baloney. I am NO LONGER out of space. iPhone, you incredibly well designed and intelligent piece of hardware, why, for the love of all that is good, can't you figure out that I know have 20Mb free?
    So, then I'll jump over to Podcasts, which I love, but take up lots of room on my phone. I'll delete a few of the large ones I've already listened to, easily freeing up a few HUNDRED MEGABYTES. We should be good to go, right? WRONG. The iPhone genius still tells me I don't even have enough space to eek out one lousy photo.
    If I let my phone sit there long enough -- 10 minutes, 30 minutes, a few hours -- I haven't determined when the magic happens -- eventually the iPhone realizes that 'Hey, the user just deleted a bunch of junk and, wow, I'll be a son of a gun -- there IS enough space now to take a photo. iPhone -- happy!'
    Thanks for nothing, iPhone. By this time, my daughter has stopped doing that amazing cute thing that I wanted to capture forever and quite possibly spawn the next generation of 'Charlie Bit Me' parodies. I freed up 500 Mb of prime photo snapping space 20 minutes ago. Thanks for finally realizing it. I realize you can only do like 170 quadrillion calculations a millisecond. I realize these things take time.
    Can one of you iPhone engineers please, for goodness sake, please explain to me why this INFURIATING and seemingly unnecessary delay exists? I am no Windows fan boy but I can sure tell you that when I'm running low on hard drive space on my laptop and then delete 1GB of files, that 1GB INSTANTLY becomes available to me. I don't have to wait some interminable timeframe until it magically is usable.
    One last thing that is puzzling -- so the native iPhone camera will refuse to let me take a photo because it things we're out of space (when we're not) but any third party photo app, like Camera+ or Camera Awesome, will happily snap pictures all day long. In fact, once I've taken them using one of these apps, I can then SAVE THEM TO THE CAMERA ROLL!
    By the way -- when I started this well thought out rant, my iPhone said it was out of storage, and now, five minutes later -- you guessed it -- still out of storage, despite the fact that I deleted 10 photos and 4 podcasts.
    So. Incredibly. Infuriating.
    For you iOS 7 users, please let me know if this issue has been resolved at all with iOS 7. I've held off upgrading because iOS 7 messed up a bunch of things with the camera, at least on my wife's iPhone 5. Focus no longer works reliably -- touch to focus and touch to expose no longer work well -- the quality of photos took a big hit. I won't update until these issues have been resolved.

    Thanks @pdroth. I did a quick Google search of DB indexing. I'm not sure I found exactly what you were referring to but I see where you're going with it. I can understand that indexing my database of stored photos can be time consuming. It's frustrating that the space can't be recognized as being free more quickly.
    I notice that some items I delete seem to free up the space much more quickly. Removing an app entirely or deleting from my Music generally shows up as available space in Usage pretty quickly.
    Deleting a photo or video from the Camera Roll will take MUCH longer, so I guess that has something to do with the indexing process you are referring to.
    I'd like to point out that when I run out of space on an SD card on any budget point and click digital camera that I can quickly delete a picture or two and INSTANTLY be able to take a couple of new photos in their place. I guess I just have that same expectation for the $500+ engineering marvel I have in my hand right now.
    Thanks for chiming in.

  • Why does my old iMac ask for the Admin password when deleting apps?

    I just bought a new 2013 iMac. I'm giving the old 2009 iMac to a friend. I installed the old OS onto it, then I updated it to Mavericks. I saw there were some programs still on it that I used to have so I went to delete them. Every time I moved the app into the trash it asked me for a password (I registered the 2009 iMac under my friend's id.) Why is it doing this?

    I'm giving the old 2009 iMac to a friend.
    You need to wipe your iMac securely so that none of your personal stuff remains on the system.  Your friend then can update & upgrade as they see fit.  Your friend should also set up a new Apple ID & password for security reasons.

  • Why does it keep asking me for the login keychain password?

    I am having a problem where my imac keeps asking me for a "login keychain" password. I type in my password every time, but that doesn't fix my problem. I need to know if this is bad or not, and how i can turn it off.
    Thanks!

    Hey there Daniel,
    It sounds like you are being prompted over and over for your Login Keychain, and entering it does not seem to make the prompts stop. I would start by running First Aid on the Keychain with this article:
    Mac OS X 10.6: Solving problems with keychains
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ph7296
    To check keychains for problems using Keychain First Aid:
    Open Keychain Access, located in the Utilites folder in the Applications folder.
    Choose Keychain Access > Keychain First Aid.
    Enter your user name and password.
    Select Verify and click Start. Any problems found will be displayed.
    If there are problems, select Repair, and then click Start.
    If that does not resolve the issue, I would next reset your Keychain:
    In Keychain Access, choose Preferences from the Keychain Access menu.
    If available, click the Reset My Default Keychain button. This will remove the login keychain and create a new one with the password provided.
    If Reset My Default Keychain is not available, choose Keychain List from the Edit menu.
    Delete the "login" keychain.
    The next time you log in to the account, you can save your current password in a keychain.

  • Why does my keychain keep asking for my password every time I access the same web site?

    The ClamXav scan found 4 virus/trojan problems and quarantined them. Before I did thid, my keychain keeps popping up asking me if I want to save my password everytime I visit the same web site(s). Is there an issue with this? And how to I fix it?

    What were the infection names associated with those four files and where we're they found. That information is in your Scan Log if you didn't record them yourself. Search for the word "FOUND" in upper case.
    The keychain activity sounds normal as long as your browser preferences are set to save that information for AutoFill the next time you visit the site.

  • Why does it take so long for the phone to turn back on after the battery dies?

    Is apple going to do anything about the length of time it takes for the phone to turn back on after the battery drains?

    Just a thought, but if the battery is not allowed to completely die then the amount of time it takes for the device to power back up is irrelevant.
    Charge the device regularly and often.  One of the worst things for a Lithium Ion battery like that in an iPhone is completely discharging it.

  • Why does my compiled exe ask for the location of subvis when installed on another computer?

    Hello,
    I have a piece of deployable software I have developed and so I have created two build specifications to produce an .exe file and an installer.
    The build specification for the installer includes the compiled exe and all of the required SubVIs to reside in a sub directory in the install directory and when it installs on another computer the SubVIs are located in the correct place.
    However, when I install and run it on another computer, a dialog box appears prompting for the location of the SubVIs, I select the one that it is asking for and it then loads the remaining VIs and runs as normal.
    Is there something fundamentally I'm missing in the way SubVIs are called after using an installer, or is there a way to bundle them into the .exe/installer so that I don't receive the dialog box?
    Many thanks in advance,
    Sam

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Yes - but on my computer, I believe the exe is finding the files from the .exe build, rather than the installer location.
    In fact, I just renamed the default build directory (where it places the installer / exe after the build and I get the same dialog - it is looking in C:\LabVIEW Builds\etc.
    rather than...
    C:\Program Files\My Software\subvidirectory
    So maybe it is the problem you suggested Yamaeda? If so - is there a solution/workaround for this?

  • Why does HashMap.java  use transient  for  the collection of key and value?

    I just took a look at source code of HashMap.java.
    It uses the variable "table" to store the keys and values.
    This vairalbe is transient, but any hashmap can be serialized and deserialized.
    Could you please help me clarify how it could happen that the transient variable can be serialized?

    The 'table' might be transient, but its content, or current data content of the map, shoud be somehow saved/restored in the serializing/deserializing code of the HashMap.

  • Why does it take so long for the Open, Save, or Save As Dialog Boxes to Open?

    I'm having a problem throught CS6 with the Open, Save, or Save As dialog boxes not opening for a period of time after clicking on the desired functions.  It can take over a minute just to get the Open dialog box up to browse for a file.  Eventually, the dialog boxes open, but during the time that it's trying to open, the program is unresponsive.  It is happening with all of my CS6 programs.  I have unistalled and reinstalled with no fix.  The programs are updated.  Anyone else having this trouble?  Any solutions?

    Thanks for your response.  The system is a Windows 7 64-bit system with 4GB RAM installed.  I am not trying to save anywhere in particular.  By default, it would open to the user's documents, and does eventually, but it currently just sits for about a full minute before doing anything.  This machine was saving properly when CS6 was first installed about 5 months ago. 
    I've checked for unconnected network drives. I've also renamed the Illustrator preferences file based on a reccomendation that I found elsewhere.  However, neither of these helped.
    I can provide screenshots or anything else that's needed.
