New ATV3 Won't Display 1080i

Need help.  I own all three models of Apple TV.  I connect them via the same HDMI cable to my 1080i HD television.  The ATV1 outputs a 1080i signal.  The ATV2 only outputs 720p which, of course, was it's big limitation.  So, today I bought a new ATV3 expecting to see my long awaited 1080i output signal. 
Not only does it not display 1080i, it doesn't even show 1080i on the list of options for screen resolution.  I know it's not a TV issue because I've tested several 1080i devices on the same HDMI cable and input slot.  So, what's left?  I'm stumped.  Thanks in advance for any help or ideas.
p.s.  Just to verify that there was no issue with this HDMI cable, input slot, or the TV itself, I just plugged my Cox Cable HD output directly into the Apple TV's HDMI slot using the ATV's HDMI cable.  Perfect 1080i.

Mystery solved.  I've found out from other Internet searches that all of the above responses were 100% technically correct.  Apple's support for 1080 HD is exclusively limited to the "p" (Progressive-scan format) and does not include support for the "i" (Interlaced format).  That was the answer that I was looking for.
I made the mistake of assuming that the ATV3 supported all 1080 HD formats.  My error.  I should have done my homework on the new Apple TV before I dashed out and bought one.  Another case of buyer beware.

  • Transfering iphoto library on external hard drive to new MBPr - new MBPr won't display thumbnails

    Hello -
    I have a 2008 MBP, now running Lion. Because of space, I recently transferred the iphoto library of (18,000 plus photos) to a Seagate Backup Plus drive. It works fine. It is running iPhoto '09 (8.1.2) - although perhaps it was running an earlier version before the Lion upgrade?
    I recently bought a new MBP retina. I thought transferring the iphoto library would be a simple matter of plugging the Seagate into the new computer, then selecting that library as the library to use when opening iphoto. The MBPr is running iPhoto '11 (9.4.2)
    However, when I do that, I get a bunch of blank thumbnails. I can tell it's my library, because I see all the Event names (although they seem to be out of order).  But the thumbnails are black. When I click on one, I get the triangle containing exclamation point icon. Also, it only contains 7,457 photos.
    Ejecting the Seagate and plugging it back into the old computer works fine. Not sure what I am doing wrong.
    I downloaded Library Manager and tried to rebuild and got this message: Rebuild complete. No photos were imported. 7457 errors occurred during the transfer.
    Perhaps I'm missing something obvious. Thought of taking the iphoto library file from the Seagate and simply copying it into the MBPr's Pictures file, but wanted to confirm that this was the right course.
    Any help would be most appreciated!
    Thanks
    Matt

    I assume it's OSX extended, since it's a "Backup Plus for Mac" and billed as being "Mac OS and Time-Machine® ready out of the box," but I could be wrong. It does seem to work fine with my older MBP.

  • New iPad 3d gen won't display email attachment???

    Hallo,
    I have the new iPad with retina display, and I've recently noticed that the default mail app won't display the mail attchaments even though the incoming mails sport the paper clip symbol. In contrast to my iPad, my iPhone 4 opens the attachments from the same mails without any difficulty. I'll sum it up once more time to prevent any misunderstandings. The problem is not the fact that my iPad can't open the attachments but rather the attachments are nowhere to be found. This is a huge bug or what?
    Ps: please don't tell me to restart my iPad or do a hard reset. Dohhhh! Thx.
    Any help on the matter would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Well duh ... I still don't understand what the heck you mean and frankly, so are there no misunderstandings - your statement makes no sense to me.
    If you can open the attachments that is where they are - on the screen of the iPad - you just opened them. Where do you expect them to be?
    You open the attachment and then you need a compatible app in which to save the attachment. If you are stating that the attachment opens but is not visible - that is something different. I have never seen that before.

  • Does anyone know why all of a sudden any new parent divs I add won't display in browser preview?

    Does anyone know why all of a sudden any new parent divs I add won't display in browser preview?

    yes styles are applied. What does not show up are the container divs - they all have the thin purple borders.
    The "Blog Lovers" image shows up but it is inside the #blogindex div - which seems to be invisible because the elements inside #blogindex div are just piled on top of each other. (see below html) This is now happening on all the pages of this site.
    (I test a different site in DW and I was able to add divs and borders and content inside divs just fine.)

  • After installing new HDD, some iPhoto Events/Photos won't display

    Problem: I upgraded to 1TB HDD a couple of days ago and tried to use the System Restore from Backup under Disk Utility. It never worked, got to a blue screen and just hung. So I reloaded Snow Leopard and then used Setup Assistant to move Apps/Files/Settings from my Time Machine Backup.
    Today I was going through files to see if anything was missing and found a number of Events from 2010 that wouldn't display in iPhoto '08, just dark squares but with the event name underneath.
    Rolling the mouse over the empty square displayed the correct number of photos for the event but photos wouldn't display.
    Next I "Browsed" the Time Machine Backup (from iPhoto) and the same Events were also empty on Time Machine Backups.
    The funny thing is the empty events are scattered meaning I have a full Events from Feb and March 2010 but empty events from Jan, Feb and May 2010. And then when I go into the Empty Events on Time Machine, I can call up the photo number but the photo won't display.
    Is there a way to recover these photos? I'm pretty sure there on the TM backup and also on my new HDD.
    As a "suspenders/belt" type person, I have the photos backed up on a Windows PC but rather work through this problem first.
    iMac 20" 2.4 Ghz Mac OS X (10.6.4) AEBSn AXg

    You can enter TM while in iPhoto and do a search for some of the missing photos by file name. When you find a version that appears to have them in exit TM, go to your Pictures folder, reenter TM, go to that version and restore the entire library. I'd keep both your current library and the restored. Then you can check to see if the missing photos are in the restored library.
    If neither library have all of the photos but do combined you can use the paid version of iPhoto Library Manager to merge the two libraries into a new 3rd library setting the option to not import duplicates. That should get you a complete library.
    OT
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier versions) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. There are versions that are compatible with iPhoto 5, 6, 7 and 8 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. Just put the application in the Dock and click on it whenever you want to backup the dB file. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.
    NOTE: The new rebuild option in iPhoto 09 (v. 8.0.2), Rebuild the iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup" makes this tip obsolete.

  • PSE8 Organizer won't display new files

    After copying photo files into a folder, I opened PSE8 Organizer and imported the files.  PSE8 reported importing 578 photos.  I clicked to Show ALL.  Only the original 24 photos in the folder are displayed.
    I have tried rebuilding the catalog, and deleting and creating a new catalog.  Nothing seems to work.  The rebuilding of the catalog reported the files are there and do not need to be imported.  But PSE8 still won't display any but the original 24 files.
    Any ideas would be appreciated.

    Edit > Visibility was set to Show All Files.  In Preferences, I unchecked all filter selections for Auto Analyze.  No effect.
    I have one folder with 3 .tiff files that PSE8 Organizer won't display.  Trying to import the files and PSE8 says they are there but PSE8 cannot display them.  No explanation.  Windows Photo Viewer and Picasa have no problem displaying them.
    I have deleted and made new catalogs with the same results for that folder.  I cannot figure out what is wrong with these files.  All other applications have no problem.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

  • New Safari Window won't display

    I recently upgraded to Snow Leopard at my work computer (they don't allow Lion yet). I ran the updates which upgraded Safari to 5.1. However, now I can't open a new window. It shows in the window menu that they are open, but they won't display, and I can't get them to. If I hit Command-L it will highlight the url field, but won't allow me to type anything. I've tried going back to Safari 5.0, uninstalled all extensions, deleted cache, reset everything etc. I now don't have any of my work-specific bookmarks and an unusable browser. I've deleted preference files, cache files, etc. It starts like normal, but if I close the window, or open a new window, it is locked up. Is there any way to fix this?

    Anti virus software installed?
    Does the same thing happen in another user account?
    How about third party plugins?

  • My iPhone 5 won't display smart text options.

    My iPhone 5 won't display smart text. It did when I initially downloaded the new OS, now those options don't appear at all. Did I click something to make them disappear?
    I went into Settings to see if there was a component of it within Messages. I don't see anything.
    Thoughts please.....
    Thanks much

  • Private Photos App - pictures not displaying This app was working fine, then suddenly it won`t display any of the photos.

    This app was working fine, then suddenly it won't display any of the photos. One day the photos were there, gone the next. It still shows how many photos are there but just shows a white screen. I can't export anything to the photo album. Adding photos to existing folders yields the same result, only white screen displayed. However, I can create new albums and add photos to those without issue. Does anybody know how to recover the "missing" photo"  I was going to try reinstalling the app but it's no longer available in the iTunes App Store. Thanks, Tracy

    1, you can't at the moment, though with iOS 5 in the Autumn, from http://www.apple.com/ios/ios5/features.html#photos :
    Even organize your photos in albums — right on your device
    2, by removing it from you synced from and re-syncing. Only photos taken with the iPad, copied to it via the camera connection kit, or saved from emails/websites etc can be deleted directly on the iPad (either via the trashcan icon in the top right corner if viewing the photo in full screen, or via the icon of the box with the arrow coming out of it in thumbnail view)
    3, the location of the photos that you synced to the iPad should be listed on the iPad's Photos tab when connected to your computer's iTunes.
    4, you can copy the photos from your iPad to your computer : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083 . You should also be able to delete them from the iPad as part of the transfer process to your computer, and it's then your choice whether to add them to your sync photo list so as to copy them back to the iPad. Copying them to your computer would allow you to organise them into folders and therefore be able to sync them back into separate albums.
    5, I don't use Dropbox either. There are some third-party browser apps in the iTunes App Store that allow you to download pages so that you can view them when offline e.g. Atomic Web (the whole page is saved within Atomic Web, it doesn't place a photo into the Photos app)
    6, deleting content should help. If you remove an app from your iPad then you also remove the content that it's got on the iPad - so if you then decide to reinstall it back onto the iPad then you will need to manually add back any content that you want in it. None of the Apple built-in apps (including Photos) can be removed from the iPad

  • Database field won't display

    I'm new to Crystal Reports in .NET but I do have my 1st report working except for one field that I'm trying to use in a sub report.  It's in my database fields just like the other field for the sub report.  I can see data for both fields in the Browse Data.  One field and it's heading display just fine but I can't see the other one anywhere.  The field heading that's created when I drag it into the Detail area won't display in the report either.  I've tried deleting the field and readding it but nothing helps.  As far as I know I've done nothing to suppress this field from printing.  I REALLY need to get this working.  Thanks for your help.

    Hello Paul,
    I recommend to post this query to the [.NET Development - Crystal Reports|SAP Crystal Reports, version for Visual Studio; forum.
    That forum is monitored by qualified technicians and you will get a faster response there.
    Also, all Crystal Reports .NET Development queries remain in one place and thus can
    be easily searched in one place.
    Thanks a lot,

  • Over half my albums in iPhoto won't display the enlarged photo. How can I correct this?

    Over half my albums in iPhoto won't display the enlarged photo. How can I correct this?

    There are several possible causes for the Black Screen issue
    1. Permissions in the Library: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Include the option to check and repair permissions.
    2. Minor Database corruption: Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild.
    3. A Damaged Photo: Select one of the affected photos in the iPhoto Window and right click on it. From the resulting menu select 'Show File (or 'Show Original File' if that's available). (On iPhoto 11 this option is under the File -> Reveal in Finder.) Will the file open in Preview? If not then the file is damaged. Time to restore from your back up.
    4. A corrupted iPhoto Cache: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto folder from HD/Users/Your Name/ Library/ Caches...
    5. A corrupted preference file: Trash the com.apple.iPhoto.plist file from the HD/Users/ Your Name / library / preferences folder. (Remember you'll need to reset your User options afterwards. These include minor settings like the window colour and so on. Note: If you've moved your library you'll need to point iPhoto at it again.)
    If none of these help: As a Test:
    Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Create Library'
    Import a few pics into this new, blank library. Is the Problem repeated there?
