I think its goin back...

Not only can I NOT connect to TC for the shared disks, but I just found out neither can my TMs... I just looked and both computers say "Delayed...".
When I instruct them to backup now they just spin for a few seconds then say "Delayed..." again.
I have even restarted the TC several times. I tried entering TM and it comes up but shows NONE of the history of backups for either machine.
At this point... I think TC is a POS and needs a while before the bugs are worked out. I think mine will be going back today.

msh... Well so far its ok. What totally amazes me is two things:
1) The name "mrh's TimeCapsule" was picked by the setup routine. Not myself.
2) My MacMini could connect where as my MBP17 (both on same version of leopard) could not.
That baffles me.
Henry gave the good advice to take out the apostrophe. I think he must have run into that before. Anyway it seems to have worked after that.
I was on the phone with with the product specialist from Apple when I noticed Henry's reply and I tried it and he lept on it and said, "yes that will cause the problem". He gave me a case number, his number and extension and said to try it for a few days and let him know.
Hopefully it works. I have it sitting on an aluminum cooling plate I had for my old 15" MBP which seems to be sucking some heat from it. It still is a toasty little thing.
Like one guy said: "His TC was gonna smell like tri-tip because it was hot enough to cook a steak on". Hee hee I laughed at that one.

  • I have some dts cd's that I want to import into itunes on a windows pc and then play back on my apple tv 3 (i think its 3, about 9 months old) to listen to through my onkyo amp via hdmi as dts, when I play back I just get white noise.

    I have some dts cd's that I want to import into itunes on a windows pc and then play back on my apple tv 3 (i think its 3, about 9 months old) to listen to through my onkyo amp via hdmi as dts, when I play back I just get white noise. I have seen lots of old posts which go on about converting files but am wondering wherher at the current time with the latest versions of itunes and apple tv whether this should by now be a virtual play out of the box solution.
    I have tried connecting my atv to the amp by optical cable but that didnt produce anything better and am assuming that a hdmi cable should be able to reproduce everything an optical cable does.
    Is this something I should be able to achieve without having to recode the files?
    Tracks are imported to itunes as apple lossless, have tried setting the atv audio settings to auto and 16 bit, neither works yet I was told some time ago by an apple rep that the atv shoud be able to handle any type of audio as it just passes it to the amp to decode. I am not stupid but not that technical when it comes to audio and bitrates etc so any explaination would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance for any help

    Willy, the procdedure you describe works perfectly for AppleTV G1. In fact, I frequently play DTS music discs ripped to my iTunes library as Apple Lossless (ALAC) and synched to the ATV. What happens is that, as far as iTunes and the ATV are concerned, a conventional stereo 16/44 audio file is being played; however my reciever detects the DTS data stream, and instead of outputting static, it decodes the 5.1 channels correctly. This process parallels the way DTS discs were designed to be played back: a conventional CD player is connceted, via digital out, to a DTS-aware reciever/pre-amp and the two channels of static are recognized as 6 channels of DTS-encoded audio.
    However this process will only work if the player (CD, ATV, PC, etc.) sends a "bit-perfect" 16 bit/44.1 khz data stream to the decoding device. In the case of ATV G2 and G3, as has been discussed elsewhere, the unit resmaples all audio - including 16/44 PCM (Redbook CD)  - to 16/48. While this is not a big deal for conventional audio CDs, MP3s, and AAC files, it mangles the fragile DTS datastream and renders it undecodable. The resulting static that you hear is just like the static you would hear if you played a DTS CD on a non-DTS capable system.
    Sadly, I'm not aware of any easy way around this. You could use a program like Foobar (and the DTS plugin) to convert your DTS CDs to 6-ch .wav or .flac file. From there you could transcode the file to AC-3 and then mux it into a video container that ATV supports. You may need add a dummy video track, for iTunes/AppleTV to be ok with the file, though I'm not sure. This may be a lot of work.
    Sorry for the bad news. I wish that the iTunes/ATV ecosystem had better multi-channel audio support.

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected, on a computer browser go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up or conbtinue to show off-line.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.

    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

    if your computer is not recognizing it, try using a different USB port or different usb cable. if that doesnt work you will need to uninstall and reinstall itunes.

  • I have a firefox update 27.0.1 that keeps popping up and I think its a fake and I need it removed please.

    Im running vista here. A firefox 27.0.1 update notice keeps popping up by my toolbar on bottom right side of my screen.. and goes away. Moments later a big EMPTY firefox update box appears in the middle of my screen. All it lets me do is close it, but it always comes back about 2 hours later.
    I think its an empty fake !!!
    How do I get rid of it .... please help me.

    Normally warnings are fakes but in your case I am not sure.
    Your sytem info aside is indicating you are using Firefox 21, so either you are using an out of date and unsupported version of Firefox, or something is going wrong and Firefox is not reporting the correct information.
    When you use the Firefox button and the help option you should get an option about firefox that confirms the version you are using.
    Possibly you have security software preventing updates. Have a look at these articles then please post back and confirm what version you are using.

  • Do think the firefox back and forwoard button should look like what it look like in netscape?

    Netscape is the ancestor of firefox.i think it would be greater if firefox would use its ancestors back and forward button to show respect.if you agree with me click i have this problem too button and well show firefox what we want.

    The Firefox button displays by default only in Windows Vista and Windows 7. You '''''can''''' have it display in Windows XP
    '''Menu Bar'''<br />
    *right-click empty space at the end of the Tab Bar, click "Menu Bar" to place a checkmark
    *Menu Bar checked = Menu Bar on; Firefox button off
    *Menu Bar un-checked = Menu Bar off; Firefox button on
    *Other methods of doing the same:
    **click Firefox button > Options, click Menu Bar
    **Quick toggle Menu Bar on/off: ALT+V+T+M
    To have the Menu Bar '''''temporarily''''' display when the Firefox button is on, press the ALT key or the F10 key to make the Menu Bar appear and use your mouse to make selections from the temporarily displayed Menu Bar. Why would you want to do this? The selections available are different.

  • Want to change my16giga byte ipad mini with retina display to the 32giga one because i think its capacity is insufficient. So could i change to 32giga by giving an extra charge. I bought 16giga ipad mini on thanksgivingday, maybe 30. November

    If bought directly from an Apple Retail store or Apple Online store, and is still within the 14 day return period Apple Offers you can take it back and get a full refund which you can then use towards buying the other version.
    If its already past the 14 day period then you won't be able to return it for a refund no.
    If you did not buy it from an Apple Retail store or Apple Online Store you will have to consult with the store you bought it from about their return policies.

  • My ipod wont charge or do anything at all i think its broken

    yeah i think its broken it wont turn on(uncharged) but when i connect it to the usb it doesnt charge and doesnt make any thing at all it usualy shows a battery. i switched the usb cable and tryed a car charger nothing worked. can i switch it for a new one? ok well help me

    I just spend about 500 bucks (the 60 gig unit, plus accessories)...I would love to spend a little more on a steam roller, and make my iPod into a pancake...also, the back is so smooth, it would make and excellent skipping stone.
    I'm beyond frustrated. The unit is less that 24 hours old, the Tech's have gone home for the evening, and my unit just turns on and off by itself...If it's not broken, by the time I get home from work tomorrow, and if the battery doesn't die as well...I'm sure the unit will be toasted.

    hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music'  then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

  • Firefox 4 takes a long time to startup at this point i am thinking about going back to internet explorer as my default browser. what is going on??

    firefox 4 takes a long time to startup at this point i am thinking about going back to internet explorer as my default browser. what is going on??

    Click the Firefox button, go to Add-ons, then Plugins and disable "'''My Web Search'''". This is adware which runs in the background and spends its time trawling the web searching for ads to feed you.
    Also, something shows in your system details with the number '''2,5,3,1 '''. Can you tell me what that is please? It's located in the same Plugins menu.
    Similarly, I see three versions of Veetle. Disable the older ones if you don't need them.
    On the security side, your Flash player is out of date and exposes your system to exploits. See: http://www.adobe.com/support/security/bulletins/apsb11-12.html (Update link near the foot of the page).
    If the problem persists, try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    First check that your device is correctly connected to the wifi/internet (settings > wifi)
    If your back up continually fails, you might try turning off back up on your mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup) and then deleting the backup file from iCloud by swiping the backup file on the mobile device (settings > iCloud > storage & backup > manage…) and then turning back up on again.
    If this doesn't help, try turning off some items for back up in a pattern to try to establish if your problem is being caused by specific data on your device.
    Being able to back up to the cloud can be very useful, especially if you don't have access to a computer or have infrequent access to one, however unless you specifically need to use iCloud for back up, you will find backing up to iTunes significantly more convenient and possibly more reliable.

  • My iPhone 4 was lost ages ago, it has found its way back to me but it has a pin code and been registered to a different Apple ID how can I undo this

    So I lost my iPhone 4 about 2/3yrs ago ,I got a replacement  4s though insurance at the time. Somehow my old iPhone 4 has made its way back to me a week ago how ever it has a lock code which I don't have any idea what it would be and it's also been registered to another Apple ID so it won't allow me to register it even though I am the rightfull owner. Can anyone help me get this fixed please?? My partner 'a mobile  broke a week ago and can't afford another one atm so this will be very helpful if I can get it sorted thanks

    Two issues. As Rudegar says, there is nothing you can do to use the phone without the cooperation of whoever owns the Apple ID the phone is locked to.
    The other issue is that since you got a replacement from your insurance company the found phone legally belongs to the insurance company.
