My ROKU is working fine over FiOS.
Are you getting some kind of error?
Are you connected wirelessly or wired?
Have you changed any router settings recently?
Are you having issues with any other devices in your home?

ITunes 11 previously imported a video file, which I loaded on to my iPod Nano, but I removed the file from the iTunes library and now it won't (re-)import the same video. Any thoughts on why not?

iTunes 11 previously imported a video file, which I loaded on to my iPod Nano, but I removed the file from the iTunes library and now it won't (re-)import the same video.
I'm using 2 PCs, each with video files (.MP4) on their respective hard drives, and also one external drive with other video files on that I move between the two devices.
iTunes on one PC will (sometimes!) let me add video content from the external hard drive, which is clearly iTunes-compatible, because I can then copy it over to my iPod Nano. On the other PC, I couldn't load that same video from the external hard drive. But if I copied that same video on to the PC's internal hard drive first, then iTunes would let me import it. That was yesterday - now iTunes is refusing to load any files from the internal or external hard drive(s).
Any thoughts or suggestions, please?

So I tried copying the files from the external hard drive to a USB drive. I could import the video files from the USB drive!
So then I tried importing the same files on to my PC's internal hard drive again. I could import the video files from the internal hard drive!
So then I tried to import the very same files that failed to load on the very same PC previously. I could now import them!
I still can't import from the external hard drive directly, though.
I really don't think I like the process of importing things into iTunes very much... any suggestions on what's causing any of this behaviour would be very interesting.

Imovie media browser only has one option, "Mobile". other videos had option for medium and small. mobile option wont import into iDVD. other videos gave me the Medium option, why not this one?

help! imovie media browser only has one option, "Mobile". other videos had option for medium and small. mobile option wont import into iDVD. other videos gave me the Medium option, why not this one? need answers ASAP!

That is your answer then.
Large is 960x540
Medium is 640x480 (or 720x480)
Mobile is probably 480x272.
It is offering you the sizes that make sense given the size of your source material.
As a trick, you might try this. In your project, put a short 640x480 clip in the project as the first clip of the project. Then keep the rest of the project as is. See if it will let you share now in Medium. It will not look as good, because there are not enough pixels to cover the Medium size, but it might work.

Does Netflix support the apple tv outside of the US and Canada. I can stream Netflix on my ipod touch in the Caribbean but wondered if the apple tv would be supported.

Netflix became available in the Caribbean and Latin America recently and I can stream it on my Ipod touch . I recently had a bad experience with a blu-ray player while trying to stream Netflix. I got a message saying Netflix only supports newer versions of this device outside of the United States and Canada. I wanted to make sure this is not the case with the apple tv before purchasing. Does anyone know for sure if Netflix supports the apple TV outside of the US and Canada?

"I got a message saying Netflix only supports newer versions of this device outside of the United States and Canada"
sounds like an error msg that the firmware of your blueray player is required for compatability

Airport Express won't stream Netflix through Playstation 3

My PS3 can pick up the wireless internet signal from the router perfectly, I can play online games with no problem. If I plug the ethernet cord directly into the PS3, Netflix works flawlessly, so I'm sure its the router. It's an airport express with the latest firmware, I've got a printer plugged into the USB port for wireless printing, and an audio cord in for using AirPlay. Any ideas?

Would it have something to do with Airport stations not supporting UPnP?
Possibly. UPnP, like Apple's NAT-PMP, allows an application to "automatically" open ports in the NAT firewall. For best throughput for Netflix streaming, you would want the following ports open:
TCP: 80, 443, 5223, 10070-10080
UDP: 3478, 3479, 3658, 10070
Also, I was looking at some info on my router and it has an error, something to do with "Double NAT". I'm not really sure what that means, but would it be preventing my PS3 from streaming Netflix?
A "Double NAT" means that you have two routers in series that both have NAT enabled. I believe that your Motorola 4G modem is actually a combination modem & router. That means that your AX should be reconfigured as a bridge so that the Motorola can provide both NAT & DHCP services for your network. In this case either the Motorola would need to be enabled for UPnP or configure it for port mapping. However, I have a feeling that once you reconfigure the AX as a bridge, your Netflix streaming issue will be resolved.

I restored my HDD and now iTunes won't stream music from the cloud.

As title states, I replaced/restored the HDD in my Mac Mini and everything works perfectly except iTunes Match songs in the Cloud no longer stream in iTunes, they just skip to the next song. They all play fine when explicitly downloaded, but ihave many thousands of songs and it is supposed to work that way. I've tried many solutions and have also seen no one else with this problem. What am I missing here?
Thanks,

HP Envy 120 printer and Macbook Pro won't talk to each other...

Hi
I have a shiny new printer and a fairly new Macbook Pro and simply cannot get my printer to 'talk' to my Mac.
The printer is connected to our home internet and the Internet report you can print off says everything is fine.
We have done the Apple > Software update etc to make sure the latest drivers etc are installed. (For info, we are on OS X 10.8.5). However, when we then try to print something, it comes up as no printer installed and there is no 'nearby printer' showing, which I believe should be showing there. (We have tried adding manually, too, using various settings and can't do it that way, either.)
When this didn't work, we downloaded the relevant driver from the HP site (to see if this would help, but it didn't).
After downloading the driver, we go through the installation process and what happens is that it doesn't have our printer listed and asks that we connect our printer. When we connect it, it recognises it and we then proceed. It then says your printer is now connected and you may remove your device. When we remove it, it then does not have any device listed and we cannot progress any further. Stuck in an infinite loop...
Also, firewall and security settings are fine.
I've also restored default settings on printer etc and started over a number of times.
Any help would really be appreciated.

Mac Pro won't stream from Netflix

Mac Pro 2 x 3 GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon, 9 Gb RAM, OS X 10.6.7. Used to be able to stream Netflix Instant Watch movies up to about a year ago, when I got an iPad and switched to watching Netflix stuff on that. But yesterday I tried it on the Mac Pro again and a message informed me "Our apologies -- instant watching is not supported on your operating system." I use Safari 5.0.5 and meet all the other Netflix requirements for streaming on a Mac.
On a separate internal hard drive of my Mac Pro, I have OS x 10.5.8 and Safari 5.0.5, and am still able to stream Netflix movies fine if I boot up in that. But I can't steam them when booted into 10.6.7 for some reason. Any ideas?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of this exercise is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under Mac OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, you can’t boot in safe mode.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

2nd generation Apple TV won't stream iTunes content

I upgraded the software on my 2nd generation Apple TV about ten days ago and now it won't stream my iTunes content that is on my PC (Windows 7) upstairs. I keep getting the message that the Home Sharing feature on iTunes is not turned on, however, that is definitely not the case. I am running the latest version of iTunes and have tried restarting, restoring, and resetting Apple TV but nothing has worked. My router and cable modem are working fine and I am able to stream content from my iPad and iPhone to the Apple TV via AirPlay. For some unknown reason, the icon in iTunes that lets me decide which speakers I want to use via AirPlay (iPod vs Apple TV) is not present in iTunes. I can't figure out how to fix this problem.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Can I stream Netflix from iPad to iTV?

is there a reason iPad won't stream Netflix to iTV? I heard you can send it via hardwire from an iPad.

Hey .. no blasting intended (sorry if my post came across as harsh).
I was just trying to shed some light upon a legitimate reason as to why someone would want to "AirPlay" (streaming or not as I explained) NetFlix through to AppleTV.
As it stands, if I want to accomplish the above, I have to basically set up the movie from scratch (save the "find the spot where I am in the film" of course, as there is the "resume" feature of course).
Being able to walk in your front door (or walk down from a bedroom/kitchen) and BLIP NetFlix right onto the screen with a simple touch of an icon would be quite nice.
But then again, I guess manually turning the AppleTV on, clicking over to NetFlix, going to "recently watched", clicking the movie, then clicking "Resume" .. isn't THAT big of a deal. But still.
Know what I mean?
But again, in no way was I meaning to offend. People like you are the back-bone of support forums! So kudos to you ten folds!
Still hoping to edit a favorites list and the history though! Mind boggeling why this hasn't been implemented yet. From what I gather, you have to cancel your subscription and re-subscribe to clean your history. Ludicrous! And even then, it erases ALL your history, not just the films you happened to look into and happened to skip. Now my history is littered with random movies that technically are NOT movies I've watched. In effect, my history is actually a useless feature due to this (for the most part). Ahh frustrations with seemingly simple technology.
Just venting really. It's another issue altogether, yeah?
Cheers!

Laptop won't let me play any video or change the brightness of the screen at all.

I got this new Laptop a few months ago and it has just recently started to play up slightly and not let me change my brightness settings at all and now it won't let me play any videos.

I got a solution
First check out your performance settings and if u dont know where to find it just right click on my computer and enter to propreties then click on performance and tools, then if the gamming and desktop aero system are 1.0 then you have three solutions.
1) Install a new windows
2) check out your computer driver and install tge latest version
3) or simply you can download DRIVER PAC SOLUTION and install it then after installation is done you might wanna restart the system and check performance again then it should desplay NEW HARDWARE DETECT REFRESH NOW then click on refreah and the rating is gonna go up from1.0.to higher than 4.0.

Will Apple TV bought in the States stream Netflix in Canada?

One wonders, since the differences in prices is fairly big, whether I could buy my Apple TV in the States and yet use it to stream Netflix in Canada (now that we have Netflix too!)

There was no mention of NetFlix on Apple's Canadian ATV page when it was first announced. Since NetFlix was rumored to be available in Canada I checked the ATV's site the day it was announced to see if it would be available here. The NetFlix info was probably added after NetFlix officially started offering it's streaming service in Canada.
I have yet to look very close at NetFlix in Canada although from what I have seen it is very limited when compared to the US. Pretty much all TV Shows and recent movies I search for were not available in Canada. Even older classic TV shows such as All In The Family and MASH can not be veiw in Canada though NetyFlix. This is apparently due to the TV networks holding the rights to most US content in Canada.
It may be another handy way to get content but in it present stripped down version I would find it hard to consider NetFlix as a reason to upgrade my ATVs or even pay for their service.

Streaming Netflix: Apple TV x PS3

Can anyone help me figure out why the quality of the video when streaming Netflix using Apple TV is so much worse when compared to the quality of the video when streamed through PS3 and other devices, such as a PC or a Mac? This problem DOES exist and has been reported by others in this forum. If you have the opportunity to try and compare the quality of the video when streaming Netflix using your Apple TV and the quality of that same video when streaming from PS3 you notice a big difference. For starters, the PS3 system allows you to actually see the quality of the video being streamed from Netflix on spot, concurrent to the playback, in a scale of...
Low SD
Medium SD
High SD
Low HD
Medium HD
High HD
X-High HD
...this possibility is native to the Netflix client on the PS3, you just have to press the select button during playback. Apple TV doesn't let you identify the quality of the video in any way. This lack of transparency is really frustrating, because users have to count on their bare eyes, without having a technical reference, to find out if they are getting the correct video quality they are paying for. We can't forget that usually users will make sure they build up all the necessary infrastructure to strem videos in the best quality possible, spending a lot of money in hardware and a decent internet connection. Another thing is that movies and TV Shows purchased/rented through the iTunes Store doesn't suffer the same kind of degradation in quality. They are streamed in full 1080p without hicaps in my network. This indicates that the hardware itself isn't the problem, the problem has to be something to do with the Netflix client in the Apple TV, maybe there is indeed some kind of restriction to the quality of the videos being streamed. For those who always come with the same explanation that is has to do with the quality of the user's connection, there is a major antithesis to that, that is the same doesn't happen if you stream Netflix using other hardware. My iMac streams in real HD. So does my PS3, which streams in X-High HD. My Apple TV 3rd gen, however, degrades so much the video that it is forcing me to stop using it.

You guys take a look at this...

ICloud TV and movies won't stream on iPad4 and iphone 5

iCloud TV and movies won't stream on iPad4 and iphone 5.. I get a black loading screen then it reverts back to the movie or tv show page after about to seconds any ideas? Server glitch on apples end?

FCC rules prohibit Verizon from locking down the SIM slot on new devices as part of the agreement for the wireless spectrum auction that they won. There have been numerous reports of issues with some functions from people using the Verizon iPhone 5 on other carriers. Basic phone functionality should work, however, the Verizon and AT&T networks use incompatible LTE frequencies.
The Verizon iPhone 5 has never been advertised or otherwise officially represented as "Unlocked". Apple does not use the term "Factory Unlocked" at all.
