My Broadband is playing up AGAIN!

Nice new look forum, but same old connection problems.  Also shame I have lost all my previous posts as would be great to reference too.
Since about Jan/Feb since my last set of connection problems, I have been connecting fine.  The HomeHub reports connections of 6/7 meg and I get great download speeds.  I had a week off last week and log into work today (I work from home) and my connection is at snails pace.  Speed checks via www.speedtest.net tell me I'm not even getting a meg downstream (it's normally about 4/5 meg).
So, log onto the HH and it's connected at just over a meg.  So I restarted my HH and once booted it reported a connection of 6 meg, great, about normal.  But, my download is still under 1 meg.  About 2 hours later, the HH reports a connection of 4 meg.  And just now its reporting a connection of 1 meg.
What is going on?  Nothing has changed at my end so why has all this happening?  I'm getting really fed up.

  • Updated to newest version of itunes and now it tries to update library and freezes, how do I get it to just play music again.

    Updated to newest version of itunes and now it tries to update library and it stops responding and won't let me cancel the little update bar that appears. I just want to know how to get it to the point where I can play music again.

    This is happening to me too, very frustrating

  • If I erase a game and I want to play it again, do I keep the same profile?

    I have no intentions in starting over again. Because I erased some of my games (Contract Killer, Reign of Dragons, ect.) and I want to play them again. So if I download them again, do I have the same profile?

    Darn it! And if I bought a game, do I have to buy it again?

  • "Play it again, Sam" feature

    What am talking about is this. Say you just applied a levels command to a layer. With this function (and a convenient shortcut) you could simply select the next layer and repeat the last used function with the exact same parameters.
    A number of functions have their own "Play it again, Sam" function already (Ctrl+F for last used filter, Shift+Ctrl+T for the last transform, etc...). But there is no grand-daddy of them all - a one-stop-shop for the last function used so it could be repeated on multiple objects
    The engine that tracks the last function is already there, running the Fade command. It seems to me the road is already paved for adding the function that could be very useful when doing repetitive tasks rather than having to create an action each and every time.
    I even suggest a shortcut: Shift+Alt+Ctrl+F (as opposed to fade which is Shift+Ctrl+F). Photoshop erroneously claims it's being used for "New Document with last used settings", which has been deprecated since Photoshop started tracking that by default in the File/New dialog box. Unless there is an image in the clipboard that is, which can be purged by going to Edit/Purge/Clipboard.
    I have been expecting this as a logical upgrade for years now, and I'm really surprised to see no one asked for this in here. Although I heard a source say it has been brought up to the Adobe team in the past.

    It's called Actions...
    As you can see, I mapped the Play it Again, Sam Action to the F3 key.

  • How to pause external vdos to play it again after played another vdo

    Hey! I have a question.
    I have many external vdos which I have loaded and randomly play them once at a time by press some keyboard buttons.
    Let's give vdos named a,b,c,... and picture this....
    When people press a button a vdo A is playing then someone press another button or the same button the vdo B will be played immediately.
    The same thing happen to vdo B if someone press any button on keyboard to play vdo C. After every vdo has been played, the program will set all the vdos back so people can play it again now but, I do want it to play in exact same point where it left.
    Right now, my code can ramdomly play all the vdo without repeat them untill it plays them all. But I know because I REMOVE the vdo out so that's why the program don't play it again like this: var NewStore:Array = VdoStore.splice(i,1);
    I think this way can't make a program to remember the vdo's timeline. But I don't know whatelse can I do to do what I want.
    Anyway,
    Someone tell me to try out some index to the array and add ++ after playing. Then after index is more than Array's length, just reset index to 0 again.
    So...Any suggestion on how to pause many external vdos??

    use the shuffle function to randomize your videos and then play from index = 0 to index=videoA.length-1:
    function shuffle(a:Array) {
        var p:int;
        var t:*;
        var ivar:int;
        for (ivar = a.length-1; ivar>=0; ivar--) {
            p=Math.floor((ivar+1)*Math.random());
            t = a[ivar];
            a[ivar] = a[p];
            a[p] = t;

    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel.

  • HT5848 Cannot tap "play more like this" or "never play this again"!

    On my iPhone 5 in the iTunes Radio page when I tap on the star I cannot tap the options to "play more like this" or to "never play this again". Is anyone else having this problem/can someone help me out? Thanks!!

    I have this same problem; however, I've always ONLY been able to "play more like this" on the PRESET stations; otherwise, how could you have any 'new music' to select that you may want to hear more songs like the one you just heard and 'play more like this."  If you could only choose your OWN music to "play more like this," it doesn't make sense why you would choose your own music? 
    So, I've been able to choose  "play more like this," ONLY on the preset stations, but sometimes they are grayed out and I cannot select that option.

  • Why are animated GIFs in Firefox 11 slow? I downgraded to Firefox 10 and the animated GIFs suddenly play fine again, so I am positive that the update messed up the playback delay of animated GIFs somewhere.

    Self-explanatory. I am positive that the GIF I am viewing is faster than what it's supposed to be. I viewed the same animated GIF in another browser and it plays fine. It just plays slower in Firefox 11. I downgraded to Firefox 10 and the animated GIFs were fine again. I upgraded back to 11 and yet again the animated GIFs slowed down. This happens for all of my animated GIFs.
    I like viewing my animated GIFs, and since I don't have any problems yet with Firefox 10, I'll be sticking with it for a while...

    Yes I have exactly the same problem, and it has NOT been solved yet in Firefox 14. Please Mozilla, what is the use releasing more and more "major upgrades", Firefox 11, then 12, then 13, then 14 (one per month !) if you don't even care to fix the big problems ? That is just marketing crap, nothing more. You guys used to do amazing job, but the new policy is just unbearable, no offense meant : you need to react !

  • I just bought this new icloud back-up.... as soon as i downloaded it to my iphone 4s most of my music won't play on my phone. They skip over and over till it finnally catches a song and plays it. then it will stop and i have to hit play once again.

    I just bought this icloud backup program from itunes for close to $30.00 and when i downloaded all my music to it from past to present it seemed to be fine.... when i disconnected and left my home and pluged in my headphones, my phone would skip through multiple songs untill it would catch one and start playing it. then I'd have to start my music again after that song and it would repeat this process of searching through my songs till it catches a song to play. any Idea's???

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    i guess you are referring to iTunes Match. It sounds as though you haven't downloaded all the content and are trying to play your music over a poor connection.

  • Itunes 7 not playing songs AGAIN

    I thought I had solved this problem earlier today, but here it is again. Progress bar doesn't even work. Won't play songs in library or on disk. I suppose if I restart the computer it will work (as it did last time) but surely I don't have to keep doing that?! Any ideas?

    My problem has to do with playing my music on iTunes on my PC separate of my iPod.
    I will start a song sequence in shuffle or not in shuffle mode and after two or three, maybe four songs iTunes will cease playing songs. I will try another song in iTunes. Nothing starts. I played a music video successfully but when I went back to my song list, nothing played. I finally had to exit iTunes and launch it again for the music to play.
    So, what's up? Does anyone know?
    Thanks in advance. . .

  • I was playing Angry Birds and had to hit the pause button to listen to something.  When I hit the pause/play button again to resume, I heard talking that sounded like a talk-radio program and I couldn't turn it off, even when I turned off my iPad.

    Does anyone know what would cause me to start hearing a talk program of some type after hitting the play button after it had been on pause.  Hitting the pause button shuts off the talking, but hitting the play button starts it up again.  The strange thing is that the talking continues even after I turn off my iPad. The talk program was about silly or trendy news items, not regular news.  It sounds like it could be a talk-radio program, but there were no call letters or information on where it was coming from or who was talking.  The person doing all the talking is a male and sounds like he could be in his 20's.  The only way I could turn it off was to hit the pause button and then turn off my iPad. I just got my iPad last week and had not had any problems with it until this happened.  At the time this happened I was playing a version of Angry Birds that kept being interrupted by t-mobile commercials from time to time, which I had never experienced before. either.

    Well, shut my mouth!  There was a similar question over to the right about a 6th generation nano repeating over and over again -- I read the answer to that one, followed the instructions, and holy crap, it's back to normal.
    Is there a name for this when you end up replying to your own aggravating question?  That's what I did.  Now I can go out and listen.  It's only 91 degrees.  Heaven. Thanks, Apple. 

  • Song will play over again after it finishes

    After a song finishes playing, it will start over again. The time left that is shown on the scrubber remains at 0:00 but it just keeps playing. The song won't change unless I manually hit the forward button. Shuffle is on and repeat is off.
    Any help would be appreciated

    If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
    Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
    Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
    Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items.

  • CD playing problems again

    So recently I had problems in which I tried playing music CDs in iTunes 7.5, but it would only play every two tracks before the program crashed. My question was answered, in that I was told to delete three .plist files, then open up iTunes again. This worked...for a little bit. Now it's doing it again. Is there any way I can get iTunes to play a CD in full without crashing, and without having to delete the same .plist files constantly? I tend to leave my MacBook on for long periods of time, sometimes for days -- would this affect iTunes' performance? Sorry to bother you guys about the same issue, but I would really appreciate some input please. Thanks so much!

    I thought that option was only for importing CDs to the library, not simply playing them. I'll still try this out.
