Persistent error message when trying to load a VOD show

For the past few weeks, I keep getting an error message whenever I try to watch anything on VOD. The message says try again later but after repeated attempts it ususally doesn't work. Although, on one or two occasions I finally got the program to load and play.  I've called the technical assitance number and after about 20 minutes answering questions to a machine I finally gor a human on the phone who had me reset the STB and then said it was a technical error on their side and nothing they could do and no ETA on when it would be fixed. This seems to happen a lot on weekend nights so I dont know if its a capacity issue but it's very fustrating especially when I'm paying for premium channels but can only watch them in real time.
Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Any advice?

Hello,
Follow-up questions:
Is the VOD error message usually showing just on one set top box or all set top boxes in your household?
If it's happening to all STBs, then either there is a temporary network outage in your area or you lost connectivity to the router.
If it's always the same set top box that has the VOD error message, what model STB is it?
When this happens again you can try:
a soft reset of router by unplugging the router for 30 seconds and then plugging it back in.  Then try seeing if VOD works at that point,
rebooting the STB via the FiOS TV remote:  Menu -- Customer Support -- In Home Agent -- Reboot STB.
going to this link (and selecting Troubleshoot Now) for further steps:  http://www22.verizon.com/support/residential/tv/fiostv/guide/video+on+demand/questionsone/123196.htm
If all else fails and you still have the VOD message, you can try contacting Verizon's Technical Support via livechat at www.verizon.com/contactus or by calling 1-888-553-1555.
By the way, you can also download and stream Flex View videos on demand via your computer online or your mobile device. You can start watching the movie on your computer and then resume later or play from start (within 48 hours of renting the movie) on the TV.   This is for those pesky times (*sigh* unavoidable) when VOD does not work on the TV and you really want to watch that movie.
For more information about Flex View, you can go to: https://www22.verizon.com/OnDemand/unprotected/ondemandhome.aspx
or www.verizon.com/flexview
Hope this helps!

  • Sql@loader-704  and ORA-12154: error messages when trying to load data with SQL Loader

    I have a data base with two tables that is used by Apex 4.2. One table has 800,000 records . The other has 7 million records
    The client recently upgraded from Apex 3.2 to Apex 4.2 . We exported/imported the data to the new location with no problems
    The source of the data is an old mainframe system; I needed to make changes to the source data and then load the tables.
    The first time I loaded the data i did it from a command line with SQL loader
    Now when I try to load the data I get this message:
    sql@loader-704 Internal error: ulconnect OCISERVERATTACH
    ORA-12154: tns:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
    I've searched for postings on these error message and they all seem to say that SQL Ldr can't find my TNSNAMES file.
    I am able to  connect and load data with SQL Developer; so SQL developer is able to find the TNSNAMES file
    However SQL Developer will not let me load a file this big
    I have also tried to load the file within Apex  (SQL Workshop/ Utilities) but again, the file is too big.
    So it seems like SQL Loader is the only option
    I did find one post online that said to set an environment variable with the path to the TNSNAMES file, but that didn't work..
    Not sure what else to try or where to look
    thanks

    Hi,
    You must have more than one tnsnames file or multiple installations of oracle. What i suggest you do (as I'm sure will be mentioned in ed's link that you were already pointed at) is the following (* i assume you are on windows?)
    open a command prompt
    set TNS_ADMIN=PATH_TO_DIRECTOT_THAT_CONTAINS_CORRECT_TNSNAMES_FILE (i.e. something like set TNS_ADMIN=c:\oracle\network\admin)
    This will tell oracle use the config files you find here and no others
    then try sqlldr user/pass@db (in the same dos window)
    see if that connects and let us know.
    Cheers,

  • Error message when trying to load iTunes

    Every time I've tried to load iTunes by clicking on the icon I get the error message "iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
    Anything I can do about this or is it out of my hands?
    btw, I updated my version before asking this question

    Try to open quicktime player
    If quicktime does not open, then quicktime needs to be reinstalled.
    If quicktime does open, then some other program is blocking itunes.
    The easiest way to reinstall quicktime is to:
    1. try to remove quicktime from control panel > add/remove programs
    1A. some times quicktime will not uninstall. That's ok
    2. drag the c:\program files\quicktime folder to the desktop
    3. open c:\windows\system32\
    4. drag any thing that has the full word "quicktime" (not a qt or particial word) to the desktop. (This would be something like quicktimevr.)
    5. close my computer
    6. back in add/remove programs, find itunes
    7. click on change/remove
    8. when the wizard comes up choose repair itunes.
    This process will reinstall the version of quicktime needed to your computer.
    Now if quicktime player opens ok, here is an article from the appe support website that might help.

  • Loaded the newest IOS and I get error message when trying to load I messaging and Facetime.

    I have an Ipad mini 2 and I downloaded the software update  IOS 8.1.3. Now when I try to use facetime and I-messaging it gives me an error message : (An error occurred during activation. Try again.)
    I have tried turning the applications on and off, I have turned off the I pad and restarted it. I made sure I was on the Wi-Fi. I even made sure the date and time zone were correct. None of these things have made any difference.
    Does anyone have a fix for this problem. Is there a way to reload the last IOS update? Any help would be appreciated.
    Peter

    Hey Peter Manring,
    It is my understanding that you are receiving an activation error when attempting to use FaceTime or iMessage. I have an article that should be able to help you address this issue, and it can be found below:

  • Iphoto crashing and ERROR message when trying to EXPORT to slide show

    I am producing a simple Slide Show to be shown tomorrow at 8am.
    I created it in IPHOTO but an older version. I did some tests last night and today. Worked fine.
    Now that it is done I tried to EXPORT it to Quicktime, as a H.264 Quicktime movie.
    Dimension 1280x 720
    Stills only and no music. Classic with simple dissolves from one photo to next.
    Export and proceed and I leave it alone. After about 1/2 hour or so it crashes and give ERROR message and say
    "unable to process" or complete.
    I have tried several times and changed specs. Still crashes.
    What happened to Apple's Chat Support? Are then not online after a certain time?
    On an IMAC with 16 Gbs of RAM, and have space left on drive. this is not complex.
    anyone? It is due tonight so I can Hightail send it to AV people and it needs to be downloaded

    thanks to anyone who can help.

    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Step 1
    For this step, the title of the Console window should be All Messages. If it isn't, select
    SYSTEM LOG QUERIES ▹ All Messages
    from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar at the top of the screen.
    In the top right corner of the Console window, there's a search box labeled Filter. Initially the words "String Matching" are shown in that box. Enter the name of the crashed application or process. For example, if iTunes crashed, you would enter "iTunes" (without the quotes.)
    Each message in the log begins with the date and time when it was entered. Select the messages from the time of the last crash, if any. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message by pressing command-V.
    ☞ The log contains a vast amount of information, almost all of which is irrelevant to solving any particular problem. When posting a log extract, be selective. A few dozen lines are almost always more than enough.
    Please don't indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
    Please don't post screenshots of log messages—post the text.
    ☞ Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
    Step 2
    In the Console window, select
    DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ User Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of crash reports. The name of each report starts with the name of the process, and ends with ".crash". Select the most recent report related to the process in question. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.
    ☞ If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a crash, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    ☞ Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report—they're very long and rarely helpful.

  • Error message when trying to open windows7 via vmwarefusion.

    error message when trying to open windows7 via vmwarefusion.;
    Unable to open file "/Users/geraldw/Documents/Virtual Machines.localized/Windows 7.vmwarevm/Windows 7-000016.vmdk": The system cannot find the file specified.
    I've completely uninstalled vmaware fusion. and would like to install a new copy of windows7 plus my vmware fusion3.0 that I have on a disk. I wonder if windows7 is still buried in my mac hard drive somewhere?  I can see some windows files on my mac but they appear a gray and can not be accessed. Could there be a problem installing a new copy of windows through boot camp?   It seems to do so wouldn't be a clean install as I suspect that windows 7 is still on the drive somewhere. I've tried to follow the path the file I listed above, but nothing comes up.  I'm almost certain  it was accidentally deleted completely from the hard drive as it was quarantined while using Clam X anti-virus. I'm a relatively new mac user and long time PC user, but a computer genius I am not. I don't want to have to reformat the whole mac machine and lose my current files, etc.
    I've uninstalled vmare completely and reinstalled, it, but the problem persists.
    Any help?

    You will probably get a better response asking this question in VMWare's forums for Fusion.
    Best of luck.
