No Apple TV icon but for only one movie

I can play my music or any other of my previously purchased movies thorugh my apple tv but a movie I purchased last night has no apple tv icon.
Double checked, played some music from purchased and also imported works ok
check previously purchased movies and some I made in iMovie, works ok
Back to the one I purchased last night, works fine on the computer so download was ok but no apple tv icon option !

The exact same thing was happening on my Apple TV.  I purchased the latest episode of Doctor Who (Hide), and the video (picture) played fine, but the audio was just static.
I tried loading the episode on my iPad 2 and play it that way.  After it loaded, it played fine, video and audio on my iPad 2's internal speaker.  When I tried to AirPlay it to the Apple TV, the audio was static again.  Even when I plugged my iPad 2 directly into the TV via HDMI converter cable, the audio was still static.
This is the ONLY episode of Doctor Who (and only digital content, EVER, since owning an Apple TV 3rd gen since its release) that played this way.  All other content, Doctor Who, other TV shows, movies, and services (such as NetFlix & HuluPlus) all play audio just fine.
I did some research and ended up here on this thread.
I turned off Dolby Digital Audio as suggested and the audio worked fine.  Problem solved, but I lost a couple hours to this nonsense.  I call it "nonsense" because I found evidence that this problem has been documented and discussed since 2009 (including an article on Cnet).  Stuff happens, technology isn't perfect, and people make mistakes, but a 4 year old problem still sending folks on wild goose chases for a fix?  Not cool.
Oh well.  At least I'm a little wiser for the trouble.

  • Reinstalling data from Time Capsule, but for only one user

    Hello!
    I just got a new-used MacBook Pro and need to use Time Capsule to retrieve my old hard drive's data, but I do not want to overwrite the existing data on the laptop's drive, since it is different, including the OS, I believe. I would like to split the disc, as it were, without partitioning it, for multiple users using Time Capsule. Can I safely use Time Capsule to put all the files only into one user account, or do I need to wipe the drive and partition...?

    You can use the +Migration Assistant+ app to transfer one or more user accounts from the old Mac, without overwriting anything on the new one. Those will be a separate accounts, with the same logins as on the old Mac. Each user account will have it's own preferences, data, etc. See the pink box in #19 of Time Machine - Frequently Asked Questions (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum), for details.
    That won't "merge" two or more user accounts, since each user's data is private. You can do that manually, if you want, by copying data from one user account to another, but it's rather tedious.
    You may also need to be careful if there's a big difference in the versions of OSX and/or 3rd-party apps on the two Macs; you may have apps and/or data on one that aren't compatible with the other. In many cases, a newer version of an app will work with the data from an older version, but not vice-versa. You may want to check that out rather carefully first.
    If that's a "deal breaker," there may be a (rather clumsy) workaround; partition the internal disk, so you have, say, Leopard on one partition and Snow Leopard on the other. Then boot from whichever you want. In that case, you'd do a full system restore to the new partition, per #14 in the FAQ. That will only work, though, if the Pro will even run the other version -- generally, a Mac won't run a version of OSX that's older than the Mac's hardware.

  • "Device Not Recognized" - but for only one of three iPods?

    Hi-
    I am hoping to get some help, as I am stumpted. Here are the symptoms:
    1) I have been successfully syncing two Nanos and a Mini on the same XP machine for sometime
    2) One of the Nanos now gets a "device not recognized" message upon connecting, while the other two iPods will still connect just fine.
    3) I've tried charging it fully (and running it down), the five R's, putting it into disk mode (updater doesn't recognize it's attached so can't restore), and installing iTunes on another machine (other machine doesn't recognize it, either).
    4) The problem Nano charges and plays just fine on its own.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Try downloading and installing iPod Updater 2006-01-10 (the version previous to the 2006-03-23) and restoring your iPod with that.
    http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/ipodupdater20060110.html
    If your iPod encounters difficulties being recognized with this updater, put it into disk mode first:

    Keep us posted!

  • EA2: Code is generated for only one column with Domain check constraint.

    I created a Domain with a Value List (Y or N - Yes or No) and used that domain for two columns in the same table. But for only one column (the last one) the check appears in the generated DDL.
    After I enabled the "Use Domain Constraints" both checks appear in the DDL, but one as an inline check constraint and one as an "Alter table add contraint.."
    Once I changed the naming Template for the check constraint, both constraints are generated as an Alter table clause. The inline check constraint is only generated when the name of the constraint (according to the template) is too long. It would be nice if I could choose if I want an inline or a separate check constraint definition.

  • Can I show a data label for only one point in a series?

    Forgive a newbie question from an Excel convert, but can I show a value label for only one point in a data series? If yes, how?
    There are a number of graphs where I only want to value of either an extreme value or the ending value to show. Having all the labels in a series makes the chart too busy. This is pretty easy to do in Excel.
    If this can't be done, I guess that adding a text box over those points would work.
    Thanks

    Sure. Here's and example labeling only the MIN and MAX points.
    Column B contains the data charted with the blue line.
    Column C extracts the MIN and MAX values using the formula below. Those two values are charted as a separate series, using the green data point markers, and are labeled with their values. The intervening empty string values appear to have doused the lines connecting the two data points.
    Formula: =IF(OR(B=MAX(B),B=MIN(B)),B,"")

    After posting my concern/question, especially in regards to the optical drive, I read this on this forum:
    Jul 11, 2011 5:21 AM      
    I would like to update my macbook pro from Tiger to Snow Leopard, but my optical drive is not working. Can I take my macbook pro into the apple store and have them install it via a portable drive?
    MacBook Pro, Optical drive is no longer working
    Another poster replied, "Yes, I believe they will."
    Is this true? Can someone verify this?  Any idea of cost?  I really don't need my optical drive.  Besides, end of year, I'm getting a new Mack Book Pro.

  • Program installed for only one user

    Have a program that is installed for only one user, how can I get another user access to the software? don't have install disk.
    Thanks

    Select the application's icon then Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the Ownership and Sharing section check the owner and group assignments. If they have owner=you and group=you or staff, then you must change those. Open the Terminal application in the Utilities folder and enter the following command line at the prompt:
    sudo chown -R root:admin
    Put a space after "admin' then drag the application's icon into the Terminal window and press RETURN. You will be prompted for your admin password which will not be echoed.
    This should enable other users to access the application provided you have given the user access via their managed account preferences in Accounts preferences.

  • Skype not notifying (oange flash) for only one con...

    I've been having the issue of skype not giving me an orange flashing taskbar notification for only one of my contacts.
    Strangely, this does not always happen. Sometimes this contact's messages will in fact make my taskbar flash. Other times it will not. I can add that both the contact and I have our status on "online", furthermore I have checked the following suggestion I found here on the forums but it did not work as it was already properly set to always notify me:
    Highlight the contacts name in the Contacts list so you can see the chat window for this contact. Click on the Conversation menu and select Notification settings. Select there the appropriate option for the notifications.
    Any ideas? This has really been going on for at least a few months, perhaps a year

    Well, that is hard to tell. Like I said the website may have updated their technology. Just because it works with the Desktop, doesn't mean there is not a reason that the laptop might not have a problem. You have 2 different systems and
    most likely different configurations.
    You may want to check Tools and in the add ons for both, look for Shockwave Flash Object...ActiveX Control..Flash10e.ocx should be installed and enabled.
    Also for each check C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash  Right click the Flash folder and make sure for IE that the files are vs 10.0.45.2 by checking the properties.
    If you have the correct Flash files and the correct SWO then, some other cause would be looked at.
    It has been my experience to not "assume", but verify:-)

  • AA implement aaset value for only one depreciation area

    Hi,
    Is it possible change acquisition value of asset for only one depreciation area, the area 20 for example?
    By point of view of FI I can post the accounts of area 20 by  trx OASV,
    but in AA how can I do?
    If I use the trx AB01 the  acquisition value is modified in every area.
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

    You upload the values in AM with the transaction AS91, this don't create postings in FI. It is possible to upload different values by depreciation area.
    With the transaction OASV you create manual the total postings in FI. An other option is to use the transaction  ABF1 (search on this forum with ABF1 how it is working)
    When an area post direct you have to use the transaction OASV (asset account is reconcilation accounts) for the other area you can use a standard FI posting.
    When you use AB01 you can create you own transaction type and limet them to one depreciation area or a group (tray to play with Tty 147, there you can fill in amounts by depreciation area.)

  • Configuring PPP options for only one VPN connection

    How do you configure PPP options for only one VPN connection that is using L2TP over IPSec? The built-in VPN client in 10.4.9 is failing authentication because it won't talk MSCHAP-V2 (this is the only authentication protocol I can use) with the server. I am able to establish a connection if I add the following to /etc/ppp/options:
    refuse-eap
    refuse-pap
    refuse-chap
    refuse-mschap
    require-mschap-v2
    However, these options will affect all PPP connections. The preference file that contains the network configurations (/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/preferences.plist) also contains PPP options for each specific network service. After some searching around, I found that there are several keys that seem promising (MSCHAP2, etc.). But these keys take a string value and I have no clue what they should be. These keys are defined in SCSchemaDefinitions.h file.
    Any ideas?

    Hi Brian,
    I just tried to check all of ADDT´s "includes" files for any internal references (read: "require" or "require_once" statements) to the file "tNG_config.inc.php". So far I can only see this file referenced in the file "tNG.inc.php" (within the "$KT_tNG_uploadFileList1" array).
    So what could this mean ? Maybe you´ll have to make copies of the the original "tNG.inc.php" as well and save them as, say, "tNG.inc_ital.php" file plus make sure that these copies internally point to a different "tNG_config_ital.inc.php" file -- because it´s always the first mentioned file which gets referenced from e.g. an ADDT login page (see the "Load the tNG classes" - part)
    I want to use ADDT’s User Registration Wizard and I have looked at all the neat stuff in the Control Panel/Login Settings
    The Control Panel will always update the main "tNG_config.inc.php" file, so any further modifications will have to become manually applied to the custom files you´re creating.
    Cheers,
    Günter
