No guide or on demand, clock always displays 12:00 after 'update'

Our motorola DCT 2524 / 1612 cable boxes have stopped working properly after a late night update. Around 3 am last night the cable boxes switched off and back on, the display briefly flashed "dec" or something similar and then reset. This commonly happens after there is some type of change or update. After a few minutes the picture returned to normal but the clock said 12:00 and there was no guide. I figured it would take a while to fill in and went to bed. This morning I wake up and all the cable boxes are still like this. The picture and sound displays, but the guide hasn't filled in, no on demand, and clocks are still 12. I called comcast and got an automated message about the guides being updated and if I was having problems unplug the boxes and wait 30 minutes. I did this almost 4 hours ago and nothing has changed. Had them send a refresh signal and still nothing. OOB status is "good", so I don't know what to do. Whatever problem I'm having is being caused by whatever update was done last night, everything worked perfectly fine until that happened. Any ideas?

  • IMac 24" Intel Core 2 black display on boot after update to 10.6.7

    Help!
    After updating software to 10.6.7, my iMac won't display anything but a black screen after booting, the system seems to be working because you can figure out that the list of users is there to start up (keyboard & sounds) but no display. Things I have already tried: Reset PRAM and SMC and nothing. It's black.
    I will appreciate any kind of help.
    Thanks to all
    Rodrigo

    I'm having the same problem. I took my iMac to a genius bar and they couldn't help. Apple needs to address this.

  • My i phone 4s display problem starts after updation of 7.1.1

    Can anyone tell me is diaplay discoloration is software problem ir hardware problem
    Screen displays faded colours after 2 hours of update 7.1.1

    How do i create the seperate 5GHZ network...in network options i have ticked the box next to the 5 Ghz network name and renamed it
    That is correct.
    it but cant see it once i have updated either on phone or mac book.
    The iPhone cannot connect to 5 GHz, so it ignores it.  If your MacBook is capable of connecting, you should see the 5 GHz network when you click to Join a nework and Show Networks.
    Tried ticking create hidden network but not sure what that does.
    Please do not tick this box.It is far more trouble than it is worth. If you did tick the box and tried to connect with a wireless device, they would not "see" the network at all. It will be a nightmare if you leave this box ticked.
    how do i make the AE just extend the 2.4Ghz network and not the 5
    You do not need to do anything to have the Express extend the 2.4 GHz band. It will do it automatically since it is already tied to name of the 2.4 GHz network...not the 5 GHz network, which now has a separate name.

  • 24-inch Cinema Display and Mid-2010 Macbook Pro - Cinema Display still flickers after updates

    I currently have a 15-inch Macbook Pro (mid 2010) hooked up to my 24-inch Cinema Display.  I have updated all the firmware for both the Cinema Display and the Macbook Pro but still get intermittent flickering.  Moreover, I have cleared the PRAM and VRAM.  I have done ever possible update I can find, the system is fully functioning.  Help?

    I am having this exact same problem.  2010 iMac with NVIDIA GeForce 9400 256MB.  I have it hooked to a 30" display through a DisplayPort to DVI-D adapter.  The 30" is fine, but I have graphical corruption constantly on the main iMac screen.
    This all started as soon as I updated to Yosemite a couple days ago.

  • DateTime on Clock always is wrong even after setting it

    Hello Community
        I installed Windows Server 2008 R2 but this question would
    fit any server version.
        The problem is that the DateTime is always wrong.
        Even though I set it to the correct time everytime I reboot.
        How can I make the DateTime stay correct or even boot
    up with the correct time when the server reboots?
        Thank you
        Shabeaut

    Hi,
    Thank you for the post.
    I agree with Tim. If the server running long time, you’d better to change the battery on motherboard. Besides this, there is another scenario which may cause incorrect time displayed:

  • Firefox will no longer display Unicode symbols after update?

    I am using Firefox on Mac OS X Mountain Lion. Just about two Firefox updates ago (roughly Firefox 14), Unicode symbols suddenly stopped displaying that had been displaying fine—switching to boxes with numbers in them.
    I have changed my Encoding options to include every single form of Unicode available to me; I am not sure if that has any effect. (Screenshot here: http://puu.sh/QcF6 ) The best part? After doing so, restarting the browser makes the Unicode symbols appear again! No more boxes with numbers! Fixed, right?
    ''Nope''! When I come back to that page a week later, they are numbers in a box again. In fact, in some cases, the symbol will display temporarily (say, if I had saved it into a blog page), then when I go to edit that blog page, the symbol immediately switches back to box-with-numbers.
    This is driving me mad, and was not previously an issue. What can I do to fix this?

    Sorry for the late reply, I was waiting for the issue to re-occur. I have cleared and checked for damaged fonts, to no avail; the problem still exists. :(
    '''Edit:''' In addition, I've just checked in both Chrome and Safari, and the Unicode symbol that I'm attempting to display are working fine in both of those browsers.

  • Font Display Quality Bad After Update

    Hello all,
    my font display is really bad since upgrading to Tiger. I have Font Smoothing Style set to automatic and have tried light and others but everything appears over-sharpened. For example, as I type this, the font has an extereme sharpening, so much so that I see highlights on the top edges of characters. Regular Verdana appears in both Safari and Firefox as bold, and bold looks black. All in all, everything looks awful. I am using an Apple Cinemascreen. Anyone have any idea what could be causing this?

    I don't know FontExplorerX but check its compatibility with Tiger. You want to try disabling this font manager client?

  • Files won't display in finder after updating to Mavericks

    Have upgraded to Mavericks. Went to finder found the folder I use daily opened it and there are no sub folders or files displaying. I have done a search, they are still on my mac. Obviously I don't remember all my file names so how do I display sub folders and files in finder now? Some advice/help would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Since I upgraded to Mavericks I am  having issues!
    Menu bar wont show anymore on desktop, I am not using anything, no application. Just turn on the mac and there you go, I have no Menu bar. It just shows for 3 seconds then goes away forever!
    My files and folders same issue, they dissapears after 3 seconds!
    At the log in window where you type your password to turn the computer, it will not let me type in, i have to click I dont know how many million times then it would let me!
    I installed a game and the game window won't saty, it would kick me to desktop window after 3-4 seconds that i am in the game!
    and also Finder wont work!
    SO, LOTS OF ISSUES!
    My question is, is there a way to fix these things, if not how do I go back to previous OS without losing anything on my mac?
    Thank you so much for for your help....

  • My 3rd Gen iPod display is dead after update....

    This is frustrating; anyone else had this problem?
    I have a 40GB touch-wheel "dock-connector" iPod that has served me well for two years. I don't know if it was the update to iTunes 5, 5.01, or the iPod Software update to 2.3, but something in the last day has killed the display on the iPod.
    My powerbook still reads it just fine; it updates songs just like normal. The backlight turns on and off, and I can even play and hear songs off of the iPod. But the display doesn't show anything at all - I haven't a clue where I am in the menus or what song is playing.
    I've already restored the iPod but to no avail. Any suggestions?

    Did you restore from a backup or set the iPod up as new? Try setting the iPod up as new. You will have to manually sync your data back on (app data and settings will be lost) but your device should run better. Also, after syncing all of your data on, try a hard reboot of your device by holding down the power and home buttons at the same time until the device reboots.

  • [Solved]Thunderbird 8 display is trashed after update

    Sometime after my last update(s?) Thunderbird 8 now starts up with a trashed display -- no menus, text, etc, have a look:
    http://www.pushcorp.com/thunderbird-bad.png
    I am running KDE w/ oxygen-gtk and nvidia.
    I have:
    1. started over with a fresh mail profile -- no change.
    1. downgraded back to Thunderbird 6 -- no change.
    2. downgraded back to gtk2-2.24.6-2 -- no change.
    3. uninstalled oxygen-gtk -- no change
    The odd thing is that I have a completely fresh install on another box that works great.  Everything is pretty much the same except the other box is using Intel video.
    Any suggestions???
    Thanks!

    After some poking around I discovered that starting with a fresh ~/.kde4 directory cleared things up.  Further investigation revealed that I had a corrupted ~/.kde/share/config/gtkrc-2.0 file.  I copied a good version from the fresh ~/.kde4 directory.  All is good now...

  • Clock widget unreadable on C7 after update to Bell...

    After I updated my C7 to Belle I noticed that the date on clock widget on the homescreen is completely unreadable because the date is written in dark grey on black. How can I fix this problem?
    A photo demonstrating the problem is attached.

    I have an N8 and I agree the date is unreadable.
    I hope Nokia has been reading all the comments about this issue and the requests of bringing back the Anna style Time, Date and Profile widget as I hate the look of the new digital clock and was quite fond of Anna's.
    The only thing I can suggest at the moment is looking for a 3rd party clock. I have seen a couple around (not on Ovi Store) that have just the clock and a larger date but the couple I have tried have failed to install saying component already built in or do not open the clock/alarms or calendar when clicked.
    Please Nokia bring back Anna's Time and Profile widget either in FP1/2 or via Ovi Store.

    Hi,
    How about your network problem recently? if problem persists, you can follow the steps below to collect the scenario tracing and the WLAN logs.
    1) Enable RAS Tracing on the client.
    Over an Administrative command prompt.
    C:\> netsh ras set tracing * enabled
    2) On the client enable the following log as well:
    Over an Administrative command prompt.
    C:\> netsh trace start scenario=netconnection capture=yes tracefile=c:\net.etl
    3) Now, turn off Wireless adapter on the client and Turn it back ON for making it to authenticate. Once it fails to connect to the Wireless network, proceed to the next step.
    4) Disable RAS Tracing on the client.
    Over an Administrative command prompt.
    C:\> netsh ras set tracing * disabled
    5) On the client disable the following log as well:
    Over an Administrative command prompt.
    C:\> netsh trace stop
    6) Please provide the following files:
    From the Client:
    a) ZIP folder of C:\Windows\Tracing
    b) C:\Net.etl and C:\Net.cab

  • Ipod screen goes bright, pale blue, displays vertical bars after update.

    I got the notification to update to iTunes 7, did so. Ooh, snazzy interface.
    I then got the notification to update my iPod's firmware, did so.
    My screen is corrupted. It's extremely bright, everything is displayed in pale blue, and there are vertical stripes all the way across the screen. It's like static, almost.
    I can't even think if a proper way to google this, I just get pages and pages worth of White Screen of Death, and this clearly isn't a white screen. For all the world, it looks like a broken screen.... a screen that was NOT broken before the firmware was updated.
    I've tried reinstalling, I've tried resetting, I've tried rebooting. I've tried reverting to factory defaults. Nothing works.

    One other thing that's not in the change log (but the regulars here know it from experience): If you're upgrading from an earlier 2.x firmware, you won't lose your music. Only those upgrading from .x (non-PlaysForSure) firmwares will lose their music.
