Do you have any videos/movies in the video app?
In iTunes if you right click on the video and select Get Info and go to the Option tap what Media Type is shown?

  • I have iphone 4 and it connect to some wireless networks and some others are not visible while other lphones can find these networks and i tried to restart the phone many times and there is no result, kindly advice

    i have iphone 4 and it connect to some wireless networks and some others are not visible while other lphones can find these networks and i tried to restart the phone many times and there is no result, kindly advice

    Some updates and clarifications:
    1. I already have my 2.4 channel fixed.
    2. Wireless network name is 8 alphanumeric characters; no spaces
    3. Already using WPA2 security with a 10 alphanumeric key (again, no spaces)
    4. I am running Airport Utility 6.0, Mac OS version 10.7.4
    I should also say that these problems started happening less than a month ago...prior to that all devices where working normally.
    An added update: My two e-readers (nook ST and Kindle 3) are also refusing to connect...perhaps confirming that I have 2.4 GHz issues?

    That's almost always because the phone was hacked to illegally unlock it.

  • Airport Express signal of Macs drops when you leave the room

    My problem is as described in the title: whenever I'm in the livingroom (where the AE is), the signal is fine. A few minutes after walking out of the room and trying to get onto the network from a nearby (as in: a few feet away) room, the signal will drop and won't come back again.
    I'm having this problem on a 2006 MacBook and a PowerBook G4, but not on my iPod Touch, of which I've tried both the 1G and 2G version. On the iTouch, the signal is just fine - even on the attic and on my balcony.
    Besides, the AirTunes signal drops out quite a lot when playing songs.
    I'm using the N-version of the AE, and it's functioning as an AirTunes station and a N-signal router with B- and G-signal support. The MacBook spins Snow Leopard, the Powerbook good ol' Leopard.

    It is very possible that you may have some form of Wi-Fi interference in the immediate area that is preventing your 802.11n AirPort Express Base Station (AXn) from providing a good clean signal beyond the livingroom.
    I suggest you perform a simple site survey. I normally would recommend using iStumbler, but since you are using Snow Leopard the current release of this utility won't work. Although, not free, another very good utility, that provide similar functionality, would be AirRadar. You would use AirRadar to determine if other Wi-Fis are operating in your area. In addition, you would want to look for those that are operating at the strongest signal levels and what radio channels those are operating on.
    If you don't want to go the route of purchasing AirRadar, the other (free) option would be to run through each of the available radio channels until you find one where your Macs get the best signal. Also, since you do have the PowerBook running Leopard, I'd give iStumbler a try as well.

  • How to prevent the change of Home page everytime I start Firefox? Claro search starts everytime I start firefox even when I change the default Home page

    http://www.claro-search.com/?affID=116677&tt=4612_6&babsrc=HP_ss&mntrId=c66222c1000000000000bc773772d22a
    This link becomes my homepage whenever I launch firefox. Even if I change the homepage to one of my bookmarks, on restart it is automatically changed to the above link.

    if your manual changes don't 'stick' after a restart of the browser, please look out for any suspicious extensions (like 3rd-party-toolbars or things you have not installed intentionally) presently installed under '''firefox/tools > addons > extensions''' or the programs section of the windows control panel and remove those entries.
    afterwards install the search reset addon, it will revert the most common settings that got modified by adware back to the default ones: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/searchreset/
    in case this doesn't solve the issue please try this: go to firefox > help > troubleshooting information > profile folder - "show folder", then a new window will open up. in this window look out for a file named '''user.js''' (it might be used to overwrite your custom settings). in case it is present , delete or rename this file and restart firefox afterwards.

  • My wife and i have an iPhone 5 6.1.2 firmware.. We both are having horrible wifi signals.  We have done everything we can.. What update will fix this? I get full bars on my iPad 2 through my whole house.. Be standing right beside the router with iPhone NO

    My wife and i have an iPhone 5 6.1.2 firmware.. We both are having horrible wifi signals.  We have done everything we can.. What update will fix this? I get full bars on my iPad 2 through my whole house.. Be standing right beside the router with iPhones and it cuts in and out.. Drops from 3 wifi bars to 1

    I am having the same problem with brand new Ipad Mini at my house.
    It connects to the WiFi fine - but will not pull an IP address in DHCP mode, or if I set all the IP info statically - it still will not get any network access.
    This doesn't look like a WiFi issue, as it does connect and is seen by the WiFi Access Point.  All the normal WiFi fix stuff doesn't help.
    - Using a Dlink DAP-2553 which is less than 2 months old. 
    Other devices connect fine, including Ipad 2.
    This same Mini worked fine at another house and also connected to a mobile hotspot fine....so seems to be some weird IP issue with maybe this Access Point or maybe the older Router that I have (older Netgear)?
    I am actually a network engineer and still have not been able to find a solution.  Both the Ipad Mini and the Dlink WAP have the latest firmware loaded.
    Wondering if anyone has found a solution to this problem.

    There is a hardware problem.  Whether it's worth it to you to have no working phone for 2 months until you can update vs paying for replacement/repair now is a question only you can answer.

    What version of Adobe Reader have you installed on your Mac?
    Please try installing on a different Admin user account and check if that makes a difference.

    Hi ChrisBell,
    my Pixi shows me the missed calls in a list of its own? I don't have many, so maybe I'm missing something. But I agree with your half-ranting to some degree. As a long-time Palm-user (my last phone was a Treo 680, terrible form factor, good UI), I am really disappointed with the standard software on this phone. Memos and Tasks, which AFAIK were there and useful even on the first Newton's, have regressed beyond the point of usefulness now (solution: Toodledo and Done!, at least for now).
    But ChrisBell: if you feel up for it, you could start tinkering. Many people love these phones so much they have started developing patches to solve the obvious problems skimmed over by developers. Try looking up "webosquickinstall" and "preware", and you will find over 300 patches and a lot of free software to help you out. I am not a computer wizard myself, but I am not scared of them either, and I have been able to make good use of all these extras made available by the community.
    just a thought, might help you out on a few of your half-rants

    Could the disk have failed?

  • It tells me that there's an error on the server when i enter my password. what can i do?

    it tells me that there's an error on the server when i enter my password. what can i do???

    This is not an issue with Firefox, your message actually confirms this by the error you listed. "There was an error on the server" Firefox is only an internet browser basically, the connection to the internet & such local configuration is outside external from Firefox, the server is on the host side of the connection. It sounds like you have a bad connection between the server & your computer which Firefox has nothing to do with, rather it is your local network. I would actually check out Windows 7 VPN support, you need to setup a virtual private network VPN which is basically a secure connection stable enough to support the bandwidth required to facilitate the meeting.
    This is why you are also having the problem with Internet Explorer as you need to correctly configure a VPN connection via windows if your connection supports it.

  • Iphone 4s(ios 7) hangs after i reject calls by pressing the on/off button while it is in the lock screen.I restart the phone every time when i reject calls..what can i do ?

    iphone 4s(ios 7) hangs after i reject calls by pressing the on/off button while it is in the lock screen.I restart the phone every time when i reject calls..what can i do ?

    I've same problem in iPhone 5c. I was using iPhone 4, problem appears after updating to ios7. I changed my phone to iPhone 5c, looks like it's a bug in ios7. But I think you might not turn on or off your internet connection frequently to reduce this problem. My friend has a same iPhone she never gets such problem like this cause she uses iPhone 5c with Tata Docomo (India) 2g with no internet connection. May be this would be the best solve that you should not turn on or of your internet connection so frequently...
    Do any one have any better idea?

    We can't help you if you don't even know what you are installing.  Never install anything if you do not know what it is.  Installings through Software Update always have explanations which you should be reading to see if you actually need and/or want them.
    That being said, it appears you attempted to upgrade to Mavarick.  Although I am not positive. 
    Sorry, I am going to back out of this because I nor you know what it was you installed.  Hopefully, someone else will chime in here. 
    GOOD LUCK!
