KDL-4655100 Sony Bravia not picking up Apple TV signal

Once in a while, I get a no signal on the HDMI port where ATV is connected. Sony HDMI port where ATV is connected is lit up so I know Sony is recognizing that something is connected but not getting any signal. I've tried switching ports, and even used the HDMI port where blu-Ray is connected (and working) but not getting signal with ATV.
Also tried resetting ATV and Sony Tv but no luck. Changed the HDMI cable, but still no luck. Any other solutions? Thanks.

I have a SONY KDL-40S4100 which supports full 1080p. I have changed all the settings to see if it makes any difference. Still get the same error. Even tried using expensive Monster cables. If I turn the TV off then back on the apple TV menu appears for a few seconds then the screen flashes, every now and again a message displays saying something about invalid data or something and a few (10 or more seconds) later the apple TV menu is back. I have run the diagnostics and all is good. Any ideas?

Hi can anyone help me, my daughters macbook will not pick up the wireless signal in her bedroom when me and my wifes iphone picks it up easy. any ideas to help please.Andy

P.S i;ve heard a comment about the G5 case not being
great for wireless so the cards come with a plastic
antena that connects to the back of the machine - i
never recieved one of these - could that be the
problem?
Newer G5 PowerMacs don't require the external t-shaped aerial, earlier models do and that is probably the cause of the problem.

Macbook Pro to Sony Bravia NOT WORKING...PLEASE HELP

Hi,
I am trying to connect my *macbook pro* to my *Sony Bravia TV*.
So far I have the macbook pro - mini display to VGA converter - VGA cable - PC VGA socket in the back of the TV.
When selected on PC mode, the mac display turns blue for about 3 seconds then returns to its original state whilst the TV has a black screen with 'NO SYNC' in the top left hand corner.
The VGA cable is brand new and the mini display converter works as i used it on an old TFT monitor which died...hence why i am trying to connect it to my TV : )
Any tips/solutions would be amazing!
Thanks
Jon

Had the same problem with my 40" Sony Bravia LCD. I tried for ages to connect MiniDisplay to VGA. The TV would never recognise an input signal and the MacBook wouldn't acknowledge any change and I eventually gave up.
Recently, I checked the Bravia manual and the highest possible resolution for my model was 1360x768. So I set the MacBook display to one of the nearest: 1280x800. I connected the cord and then closed the MacBook lid for a few seconds and reopened it. The signal kicked in! The mac then gave me the option to reset the VGA to optimal display - I used the table at the back of the Bravia manual to reset it to the highest display compatible with the available mac options (1280x768, 60Hz). Now it works perfectly, but still only when first set to 1280x800, nothing less or more!

My airport card is not picking up a wireless signal?

Hi there,
I just bought an original Apple Airport card for my PowerMac G4 (mirrored doors)(1.25ghz). I installed a brand new D-Link wireless router w/ rangebooster on a PC located in the basement. The airport card is recognized by my mac, but it doesn't see any networks, even when I manually enter the name of the network I created when I installed the router to the PC. I'm wondering if it's not picking up a signal because the PC is located 2 floors below the mac. D-Link customer service say that shouldn't be the problem at all (with the model I have), and that it may be a problem with the installation/configuration of the AirPort card.
Is there a driver/update I should install along with the airport (original) card?
If anyone has any tips/knowledge on this matter, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You!

HDL node not picking up push button signals

Hello,
I am trying to design a vending machine using sbRIO and Labview HDL node. But my HDL node doesn't seem to pick signals from push button (latched when released). I have successfully done the same thing using labview blocks but not geting desired results by HDL node. I could use labview blocks only and not HDL node but I have to give a presentation to my class about how we can integrate VHDL code in labview. I have attached my VI with following VHDL code living inside HDL node.
process( clk, reset )
begin
if( reset = '1' ) then
state_reg <= idle;
enable_out <= '0';
elsif rising_edge(clk) then
state_reg <= state_next; -- result and enable_out follow input by 1 clock cycle
if( enable_clr = '1' ) then
enable_out <= '0';
elsif( enable_in = '1' ) then
enable_out <= '1';
end if;
end if;
end process;
process(state_reg,Five,Ten)
begin
case state_reg is
when idle=>
if (Five="0"and Ten="0") then
state_next<=idle;
elsif (Five="1" and Ten="0") then
state_next<=statefive;
elsif (Five="0" and Ten="1") then

Thanks, NapDynamite. However, you just included your Project (not the actual VI) on the attachment. A good way to include all of the dependencies is to create a source distribution (LLB).
Right-click on Build Specifications, select New»Source Distribution
Under Distribution Settings, select Custom as your Packaging Option
Check the Destination is LLB box and click OK on the warning.
Choose the Destination Path where you would like the LLB to be saved
Click Build to create the LLB, or click OK to save the Build Specifications.

Macbook will not pick up any wireless signals

Hi I have a Black Macbook, It is set up with bootcamp OSX 10.5/XP sp2
When I'm in Windows I can pick up 5 or 6 different SSID's, but when I'm in OSX I cant pick up any.
The wifi is turned on,I have tried deleting the service and creating a new one, no luck with that.
I know the wireless card is working because when I doot into XP I can pick up and connect to multiple SSIS's.
The card is listed in the system profiler.
Anyone got any ideas?

Ok,
The answer to this problem was to re apply the Airport Client Update 2009-001

Ipod Touch not picking up any wifi signal

I have a 4th generation Ipod, and it was working perfectly fine yesterday!
I got wifi signal all the way up to my second story room without any problems, and its been like that for years!
But as of yesterday afternoon, its not connecting to any networks, and I have to literally sit on top of the modem to get 2 bars of connection at least!
It does this to any other place I go with wifi too. This problem just occured out of no where.
I reset my modem. . Nothing.
I reset my ipod network settings. . Nothing.
I even restored my ipod. . NOTHING!
What the heck do I do now?
Please any help and advice would be appreciated

Likely a loose antenna connection

Connect Macbook to Sony Bravia HDTV via HDMI?

I am trying to connect my Macbook to a Sony Bravia HDTV via HDMI, but are unable to get one to recognize the other. I am not sure what the problem is.
I have the following set up:
- Macbook 13" (2.16 GHz Intel Core 2, 10.4.11)
- Apple Mini DVI to DVI adopter
- 15' DVI to HDMI cable (from monoprice.com, same cable recommended elsewhere in these forums)
- Sony Bravia KDL46W3000, (Full HD 1920 x 1080 p)
The Sony tv does not seem to recognise the Mac is connected (and/or vise versa). The screen is just black. Yes, I have tried all 3 of the HDMI inputs on it, Yes, I have set the tv input setting to match the corresponding input jack. HDMI does work on the tv though, as I have a DVD player connected via HDMI and that works fine.
The Mac Display preference pane does not detect the tv/monitor being connected. I normally use another external LCD monitor with the Macbook via mini DVI to VGA adaptor without any problem. I have tried various solutions others have mentioned for similar problems I found in these forms, such as turning the tv off then on, rebooting the Macbook before connecting, etc. and every other combination.
An hour on the phone with Sony tech support did not get me anywhere closer other than they say the Mac should recognize the tv as an external monitor.
Has anyone with a very similar configuration managed to get this to work? Please note, I am well aware that many many people use HDTV's as a external monitor, but this is a Sony Bravia, not a LG, or Samsung, or anything else. Also, it is a Macbook, not a Powerbook or anything else. Also, I am trying to connect via HDMI, and not VGA.
Any tips or success stories would be appreciated.
Thanks

I hooked my Sony .Bravia 40" up to my MacBook with no problem. From your description, it sounds like you may also have a bad DVI->HDMI cable. I'm using the stock Apple miniDVI adaptor mated to my DVI->HDMI cable.
I was going to go the route you took and use the VGA port on my Bravia, but thought it might limit me to "side" letterboxes since I thought VGA basically stood for 640x480 or 4X3 format. I'm surprised that you get 1920x1080 from a VGA cable. While your picture may be great, by definition I understand high to low video quality in order is...
HDMI/DVI, Component, s-video, VGA, and lastly, A/V cables.
My DVI->HDMI cable is a cheapie that I think I bought at Frys. This type of cable is probably getting harder to find as most stuff is straight HDMI now. Anyone thinking of getting a new flat screen should strongly remember to get one with at least 3 HDMI ports unless they are into cable switch-a-roo when connecting various devices. The stock devices today are cable/satellite, Blu-Ray/HD-DVD/DVD and one for the old Mac.

RE: Failure to Connect on Sony Bravia TV

Hi all,
Anybody encountered any issues trying to log into Skype on a Sony Bravia TV? I have a NX720. Everything else is fine. Wifi set up, internet connection and internet TV, although alittle slow.
But when it comes to Skype, after plugging details. You see a message 'logging you in..' with the little blue bar moving from left to right. After about close to a minute, a message comes out but only at a split second, so u can't read it either and then it goes back to the main tv screen.
Be grateful for any help. Is it a Internet connection signal problem? Do I need a new router?
Thanks.

Hi,
It seems to be a general problem, see this thread also http://community.skype.com/t5/Skype-on-your-TV/Sony-BRAVIA-not-able-to-Login-to-Skype-quot-kicks-out...
Who can help in this? Is it a Skype or a Sony problem?

I have a 5 year old Imac. it does not pick up the wireless internet signal in the same location that my new laptop does. Is there anything I can do to it to fix that?

I have a five year old Imc that does not pick up a wireless signal in the same area that my laptop does - is that just because it is old? Is there a card widget I could add to the IMac?

Apple TV doesn't connect with sony bravia KDL-40NX720 TV

I'd like to connect my apple TV (bought yesterday) to my Sony bravia KDL-40NX720.
I connect the Apple TV with the HDMI cable but it doesn't connect to the Sony.
What can I try?

Do you have a 2nd or third gen Apple TV? The problem may be you have 3rd Gen which requires a 1080i supporting TV and I am assuming the 720 at the end of your model number means it is a 720i TV. That would support 2 Gen apple TV but not 3rd. Is that possibly the problem?
Check which ATV you have and the tech spec of the TV. If I am wrong please post again so we can look at other issues.
Hope I am wrong by the way!

My Sony Bravia HDTV is not a smart TV. How do I setup connection between the Apple TV, Comcast HD box and the Sony. I believe the HDM1 cable goes from the Sony to the back of the Apple TV, but what cables connect the Sony back to the Comcast box?

Welcome to the Apple community.
The HDMI cable goes from the Apple TV to the TV.
