Optical cable does not work in Apple TV Software v4.2

Hi,
Before I upgraded 4.2, I could hear audio from optical cable and could see video from HDMI.
In my case, my display can play audio with HDMI, but I prefer to using optical cable for home theater system. Therefore I usually set the volume 0 on the display.
However, after the upgrade, the audio did not come from optical cable but only from HDMI as ususal.
I tried the following things but I could not get it better.
- Reboot AppleTV
- Reset AppleTV
- Restore AppleTV
- Reconnect optical cable and HDMI cable
- Restart my audio system.
- Restart my display
Does anyone have similar situation after upgrading 4.2?

I KNOW! haha, I hate how simplified the Linksys Smart Wi-Fi service is.. I hope that Cisco would enable advanced settings in their next firmware upgrade for advanced users..
You are pretty lucky to have the EA2700 model. Cisco provides official support for people who do not like the Smart Wi-Fi service to revert back to the classic Web based setup but ends classic web for EA6500. If you feel like trying it out then give it a go! You can make a back up of all your router settings to your computer so if the classic web setup doesn't work for you then you can always upgrade back to the current "Smart" version and restore all your settings.
Here are the links to that:
This one talks about the benefits of having "Smart" Wi-Fi and tells you that you can downgrade if you don't like it:

This link pretty much tells you how to do it:

UPDATE: I forgot to mention, to back up your current configuration; When you log in to Smart Wi-Fi just click "Troubleshooting", and click the "Diagnostics" Tab and you should see your Backup and Restore settings.

  • Home sharing does not work with apple tv

    Can anyone help me.  I used to be able to stream all content from my home master computer to my Apply TV.  Now it suddenly does not work.
    Apple TV itself works just fine.  I can also airplay using it with out IPADs.
    I have uninstalled and reinstalled Itunes.  Reset the modem/router.  Reset Appletv.  Tried with Norton disabled.  etc.
    Nothing seems to work. 
    I keep getting the 'Turn on your home sharing in Itunes' message.   But it is on.
    Help is appreciated.

    Sometimes just disabling Norton isn't enough, you may need to hunt down every last file it has written to your computer then re-install iTunes. I understand Norton can be quite a nasty little intrusion.

  • Horizontal Scroll does not work with Apple Magic Mouse

    Horizontal Scroll does not work with Apple Magic Mouse as it does with other Adobe software such as Photoshop.

    The system preferences window for the mouse has changed. The GUI elements are different.

  • IPhone (3,3G,4) does not work with Apple Universal Dock.

    I have a 3rd generation iPod Touch that has been upgraded to iOS 4. My iPod Touch will no longer sync via the Apple Universal Dock. Also, my new iPhone 4 also will not sync via the Apple Universal Dock.

    Trust a geek not to give up. I decided to get to the bottom of the "iOS device does not work with the Apple Universal Dock" problem. I noticed that the iPhone 4 and iPad came with slightly different USB-Dock adapter cables. I wondered if that might be the issue. My Apple Universal Dock was connected to my Mac via the original dock adapter cables which are slightly larger. I connected the newer cables between the Mac and the Apple Universal Dock and .... voila! Both the iPod Touch with iOS 4 and the iPhone can now connect via the Apple Universal Dock. Apple changed something in the way the adapter cables function.
    Of course I still have the problem with the car head unit dock adapter ... Sigh. I'll have to call Best Buy ( uughh! ) and find out if they'll do the update for me. The were the vendor authorized installer.

  • Key fn + Backspace does not work with apple wireless keyboard

    Hello,
    I want to user the WIndows Key DEL. However, the apple wireless keyboard dosn't have such a key. I read, that FN + Backspace will solve this. It does not work on my apple wireless keyboard. I'm using BootCamp 3.2 and WIndows XP, running on a Mac Mini 2010.
    In addition, I also read, that FN + Cursor Left sould work like POS1. But this doesn't work, too.
    Windows shows for the keyboard: Deutsch (Apple)

  • Satellite A110-137: USB 1.1 to serial cable does not work

    My computer is Satellite A110-137 and the OS is Windows XP home edition v 5.1 service pack 2. Language setting is Finland.
    I have a Prolific USB 1.1 to RS232 Cable driver version 2.0.0.26.
    It does not work at all. When I try to connect it to a Kantronics KAM packet radio modem using Hyper Terminal there is an error message COM3: ei voi avata. Tarkista porttiasetukset. (COM3: cannot open. Check port settings.)
    The settings I have are 9600 bps, 8 databits, parity none, 1 stop bit, flow conrol hardware. This is the same both in the device driver settings and in the Hyper Terminal settings. It is 100% sure that the problem is somehow related to either Toshiba or Windows XP as the very same USB to RS232 converter works just perfectly and right at the very first time with e.g. Fujitsu ErgoPro having Windows 2000 (and that is a Pentioum 233 machine, so very old stuff indeed).
    I can't get any help from Prolific, their home pages seem to be off-line now.

    Hi
    I have investigated a little bit in the net and it seems that this USB 1.1 to RS232 converter creates a virtual serial port (possibly the com 3)
    As far as I know the built in modem uses the same port.
    Possibly there could be compatibility problems.
    However, this is not a Toshiba product and therefore I would recommend contacting the Prolific support.
    I was on the website and its online.

  • Optical drive does not work completely.

    My optical drive stopped working today. It is not regonized by the system and does not show up in the ATA Bus in System Profiler.
    I resetted the PRAM and PMU, then checked and the drive was still not found. I then put my computer to sleep and when I woke it up, the drive was there in the ATA Bus list but information was missing. Now it is not there at all.
    There is a disc stuck in the drive. It will not eject. If I restart the computer holding the trackpad button down (to force eject the disc), the system stays on a completely gray screen and never finishes booting.
    The disc was having problems being read on another computer, which is why I put it in the drive. I'm not sure why this has happened, but if anyone has any ideas or tips that they can give me, i'd be more than willing to listen to them.
    Also, I have an eDrive that I made with TechTool Pro, and when I boot up in that the drive is not recognized either. This makes me think that there is a bad connection or a hardware problem. But how is that possible in a Powerbook?
    I do not want to call Apple because I bought my Powerbook two years ago and do not have anymore warranty time left. I can open the machine and look at the drive, but I am guessing that I will not see anything special and it will look normal. I really don't feel like buying another drive, they shouldn't break after two years.
    Maybe there is dirt in it or something?
    When I open Toast, it freezes and never opens. I have to restart my computer to get Toast to close.
    I burned a DVD last night.
    Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

    I'm not sure if I'm threadjacking here, which probably means I am, but that is not my intent.
    I have seen scattered posts related to this problem and have this problem myself with my 2 1/2 yr old Al PB. Intermittently, the optical drive is not recognized by the system, sometimes with a disc in the drive, sometimes without. System profiler will sometimes list it on the ATA bus, sometimes not. At times it is noted by System Profiler as on the ATA bus, but if I select "disc burning", System profiler either grinds away and never finds anything or says there is no supported device. At one point it froze while playing a DVD and did not recognize the presence of a disc or the drive. A reset of one form or another always corrects the problem (often only after multiple attempts), but this happens several times a week and I shouldn't need to reset PRAM or PMU that often in my opinion. Sometimes just a restart does the trick, but it's all a bit of a pain. No other issues to speak of. Any thoughts? Thanks.

  • Even genuine iphone 5 usb charging cable does not work for an year?

    I have bought an iphone 5 last year. With it, came the  original apple genuine iphone 5 lightning USB cable. It did not last for half year. I had to buy another original apple iphone 5 similar cable and it was gone within 3 months. I dont understand is it cable manufacturing problem? is apply selling fake cables? It is really annoying and I am really angry that such a reputed company cant give/ provide proper long lasting cables.
    My experience with these two genuine cables was that after some months of  usage, i used to observe even if its plugged it would not charge, or if you push it hard its charging. Firstly, I never keep my phone charging all time. Then how the hack can the charging cable die? or problem arise. I bought the phone and the charging cables when I was germany. I had to buy a 20 euro local companys USB charging cable after above two stopped working with no signs of damage. I have also tried cleaning the charging jack or socket where cable is inserted. It did not help. This local charging cable started to torn out automatically and it got fully damaged, Now I am in India, I bought another cable of 10 euros and it is just two days, it would not charge again.
    I am really furious now whether you use original or local USB cables they dont last for even a week? what the ****?
    Do I need to really pay for those portable charger with a big price tag, that my problem will be solved? very very upset. I never have any complaint with the phone, but the charging catastrophies, really ****** me off. I think of going back to other mobile brands like samsung or nokia where there is never a charging issue or battery drainage issue once you charge its goes for days or it  is also expensive buy a nokia or samsung charger if lose it or break it. but for iphones its really bugging situation and not just me many people around the world are having sick problem with iphone brand with charging ISSUES.
    APPLE PLEASE SORT THE PROBLEM OR SELL the PORTABLE IPHONE CHARGERS (WIRELESS) CHEAPER so that we dont have to use these silly little lightning cables. or I fear my APPLE I PHONE 5 is not genuine or its FAKE.
    PLEASE HELP>

    Look closely at the way you handle the cables. I have never had any cable, Apple or third-party, fail on me.

  • HT203254 This does not work. Apple refused to repair my notebook though I applied for the the repair before 4-year period has expired. I am very frustrated with Apple and its quality and support.

    4-year period expired on 12-th of December.
    I have applied to an official Apple service on 4th of December with this problem with nvidia-8600 chip that was confirmed by the official Aplpe service.
    I have a document that confirms the purchase date.
    It was sent to Apple by the official service and they refused.
    What we have is that Apple does not respond to obligations and all it declares can be considered as lie.

    The details:
    Repair Confirmation Number: G141323406
    Serial Number: W8******YJX
    Reason for cancellation: Part is out of range, It does not qualify for quality program.

  • My magic trackpad fell yestarday and the start button appeared blocked and now it does not work. Apple is not competent in giving a solution. Only replacement is possible paying a new one. They simply do not repair it. Anyone may help me with a solution?

    My magic trackpad fell yestarday and the switch button appeared blocked and it is not possible to make it working. I contacted Apple support and it is not competent in giving a solution. They only suggest replacement and pay a new one. They simply do not repair it. It is a very poor solution since there would be other solutions. Anyone may help me with a solution?

    Hello folks!!!. I found out a solution. I simply take the start button off with a screwdriver and now the trackpad works properly. Since it initializes automatically when the computer turns on, the magic trackpad works without the need of using the start button. The only drawback is that there is a loss of aesthetic because the trackpad has now a gap, which was occupied by the button, but it is not easy to notice. It seems to be a better solution than that given by the apple customer service, which was to pay a new one.
