No Lights on ONT but cable boxes work (sort of)

So beginning yesterday we have no lights on our ONT. It is plugged into the wall in a working outlet. If you wish the emergency battery button, it comes to life for about 30a seconds, we have cable again, but then poof, everything turns off again (phone, internet, and tv).
Strangely the cable boxes still get the correct time and will show the channel you turn except with a message that thee is no signal.
I called Verizon tech support that could not even begin to give me help and now I have to wait 3 days waiting for a technician to come out as we sit dead in the water.
Any suggestions, thoughts? We did have a power outage the day before but it lasted all of 30 minutes so I cant believe it is a dead backup battery (the battery itself is only 4the months old).

If you're certain the power outlet is working and there are no loose cables, it sounds like the power supply failed. A technician visit is most likely the best way to get this fixed.
Good Luck.

My iPad says it's connected to the wifi but nothing loads. My xbox and cable box connect and work just fine.

Hey JnastyCL,
Thanks for the question. The following resource outlines the basic troubleshooting steps for Wi-Fi connectivity. I have also included the steps specific to the symptoms you are experiencing:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
Be sure you're in range of your Wi-Fi router (access point).
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi off and on. If your W-Fi setting is dimmed, follow these steps.
Confirm that your Wi-Fi router and cable or DSL modem are connected to power, turned on, and connected to the Internet. If not, refer to your network administrator or Internet service provider (ISP) for assistance.
Restart your iOS device.
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected.
Tap and Forget this Network.
Try to connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
Note: You may need to enter your Wi-Fi password again if your network requires one.
Turn your Wi-Fi router off and on. If your ISP also provides cable or phone service, check with them before attempting this step to avoid interruption of service.
Update your device to the latest version of software.
Update your Wi-Fi router to the latest firmware. For AirPort Base Stations, install updates using the AirPort Utility.
Unable to access the Internet while connected to Wi-Fi
If you're using a public or commercial network, you may need to log in or subscribe.
Check to see if you have a self-assigned IP address:
Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected and tap ( i ) .
If your IP address is 169.254.xxx.xxx, you may not be able to access the Internet.
If you do not have a self-assigned IP address, see if other Wi-Fi devices on your network have Internet access.
If they do not, consult with your network administrator or ISP for further assistance.
If they do, reset network settings on your device by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
recently used Bluetooth accessories
VPN and APN settings
Thanks,
Matt M.

Airport express light is green but is not working

My airport express is on,light is green, all of my computers see it though Airport Utility however the computer that is 2 feet away has no internet abilities. It however see the house network,sign in but no not able to communicate with other house computers as well as the internet. 'The lights are on but no one is at home'

If all the other computers can connect to the Internet, try power cycling your entire network.
Power everyhing down on the network...all devices, order is not important
Wait a moment, then start the modem first and let it run a moment by itself
Then start your AirPort Express the same way
Continue starting the devices the same way until everything is back up
Check for Internet connections on all devices
Please post on your results

No aerial connection but cable box

I am in a rented property and just signed upto BT vision. I connected to my tv aerial connection but cant get any tv channels at all. Got a friend to look at it and then realised my aerial has been cut off and does not go to the roof aerial now!!. However we found a white box and cable coming in from outside with 'virgin' (fibre optic?) on it we think.
Is there any way i can connect my BT vision to this to get some live tv.
My BT vision box and broadband work ok.
I am not technical at all
Thanks

What do you mean by cut off?
If it's been physically cut, and if it has been cut close enough to the ground (i.e. there is a bit sticking out of the wall) it is just a case of buying a new coax cable stripping the ends, and taping it together.

My light is green but wifi not working

Apple TV light is flashing but the box doesnt have a micro USB on the back. Any suggestions on how I might restore.

I have an Apple TV2 but there is no micro USB port on the back. There are only 4 ports on mine not 5. I need to restore. Any ideas please?

Oops, forgot the optical audio out. 5 ports.

XBR55X850B remote won't work with Xfinity cable box.

The channels are listed in the cable guide tab (pictures of the listing too), but when I select the channel nothing happens. Tried the IR blaster cable, still the same. Xfinity cable box model # XG1-A. Please help.

Does your cable box work when using the remote that came with the cable box? If it does not you have a problem with the box. If it does you might need to reposition the IR blaster making sure it is slightly infront of the box or run the setup on the TV again where you put in your zip code and the cable company you use.

TS3048 The keypad is not registering with my macbook pro - changed batteries but still not working. Bluetooth says it is connected. Suggestions please.

My bluetooth numeric keypad is not registering with my macbook pro - changed the batteries when the light started blinking - but won't work. Bluetooth says it is connected.
Suggestions please.

Your MBP sees the Bluetooth keyboard but won't pair with it probably because the keyboard is pairing with another computer or device nearby. If you had previously paired the same keyboard with another device, go to the other computer or device and either unpair it or have the device "forget" the keyboard. Then you will be able to pair the keyboard with your MBP.

Remote not working cable box

I just picked up a new remote control for Comcast yesterday. I was able to program the remote for the TV after several trys but the cable is not working. The cable light comes on but nothing else. I am able to adjust the volume but no other buttons work. The instructions claim that the remote is preprogrammed. I have a Sharp Tv and Scientific Atlantic converter box. I also unplugged the dta box and let it reset and still no results thanks

I googled and I found this. Worked like a charm. ETA: the website: http://www.remotecentral.com/cgi-bin/mboard/whichremote/thread.cgi?398 Try assigning device code 1376 to the CBL device key:
1. Press CBL key
2. Press and hold SETUP until CBL blinks twice
3. Type 1376
It should blink twice. If it blinks long once, it could be one of two problems. One could be that CBL device is locked. To unlock it:
1. Press CBL key
2. Press and hold SETUP unit CBL binks twice
3. Type 982
If it blinks four times, now it's unlocked and you can do the above step to set to it to 1376. If it blinks twice, that means it was unlocked and now is locked, and you need to do the step above again to unlock it again. It also means that 1376 code is not present for some reason (possibly it was completely reset).
You could use device code CBL/0476, which is built in, but it will not have the DVR commands and you would have to use advanced codes to program that in manually. I would just get a new one (that's has the correct code), but if you want to program them in instead of bothering to go back to the cable company, I can give you the list of codes for the missing commands and how to program them in.

*screen came

My iPod classic wont connect to the computer. The light comes on but it doesn't even come up with 'connected' screen. Have tried everything on apple troubleshoot but hasn't helped. Still works in Logitech iPod player. Any suggestions please???

My iPod classic wont connect to the computer. The light comes on but it doesn't even come up with 'connected' screen on the ipod. Have tried different computers, usb cables and ports, as well as restarting computer, updating itunes, and rebooting ipod. Still works in Logitech iPod player, however it has just wiped itself of all songs so at the moment I'm stuck with a useless iPod. Any suggestions please???

If you happen to have a USB docking cable that is new (or close to being new), try using that one. If the cause is the dock connector on the iPod becoming worn, if you try it with a cable that is not worn, it's possible that it may connect for data.
I believe the dock connector is internally part of the logic board, so it may not be economical to have a repair shop (including Apple Store Genius Bar) do the repair. You'll need to ask for pricing.

If it's the most recent iPod classic, it appears to be quite difficult to pry open. I have an older 4th gen (and 3rd gen) "classic" iPod, and those are fairly eash to pry open, using the plastic tools.

HT201335 I want to hook up an Apple TV device to my TV but only have one HDMI connection that's already used for my HD cable box. Can I connect the Apple TV device to my TV that has s video, PC in and component jacks unused ?

I want to hook up Apple TV but my One HDMI Jack on my TV is already connected to my HD cable box. My TV has jacks for s video, component, and PC in jacks.
Can I use one of them to connect to Apple TV with some type of cable to my newer I-pad ?

Here are the Apple TV outputs.
What other outputs does your HD cable box have?

DVI cable not working, but VGA one will. Graphics card problem?

Ok so. I have a Mac Pro with ATi 1900XT card. Was using a Samsung LCD for a while, via a DVI-VGA adapter. Works fine. Two days ago, I attached another monitor, a DGM, to the second DVI port using a DVI lead; the one supplied with the monitor. Everything worked fine.
Then today, I tried the same thing, but the second monitor only works at one particular resolution; 1280x800 or something. And the picture is a bit crappy. So, I tried with only the DGM monitor plugged in the first DVI port. Apple symbol at start up, and then just a black screen.
Swapped over to a VGA lead, and everything works perfectly again.
So, is the problem with the cable, the monitor, or the graphics card?
Maybe the cheapo cable is just not very good? But why it works only at one resolution? Weird. And it did flicker on at a couple of other resolutions, but went off again. And even at the one resolution it worked at, there was a secondary 'mirror' image of part of the screen, at one side of the screen.
Very strange, considering it worked perfectly before.
Oh, and I upgraded the Mac Pro's firmware yesterday. Could this have anything to do with things?
Weird...

Forgot to add, we are running XP. We tried a different monitor and now at least we can get one monitor working via the display port. But when we try two monitors at the same time, the 2nd monitor on display port is not detected. How do we disable built in LCD on the X201 ? Lenovo support says its a BIOS setting ? That doesnt sound right to me...
Are you trying to use a DVI Splitter? I do not think that a DVI Splitter would work with a Single Link Displayport TO DVI Adapter. I do not think a Dual Link Displayport To DVI Adapter would work with a DVI Splitter.
I think that you might need something link this.

Not sure, if the x201can handle 3 monitors in this fashion. StarTech.com says the GPU determines the support according to the youtube video.
It is pretty expensive,and it would be nice to know the limit.

Does the ipod nano 7th gen work with Belkin Blue tooth In car hands free? Customer support said it did when I bought it, but the box doesn't say it does and I dont want to open it in case I have to return it.

If the Belkin supports the A2DP (Stereo Bluetooth) profile then it will work.
