Remote not working properly with Apple TV...sporadic fuctioning

Hello,
I have no idea what caused this to happen, but both my remotes (I have one from my MacBook Pro and one from my AppleTV) seem to not work properly with AppleTV. It sometimes works but it is extremely frustrating as it only registers about 1 out of every 10-20 clicks then continues to remember the previous clicks therefore making it essentially impossible to select the desired menu/item. Basically it just seems like it's out of control!
I tested whether it was the remote or AppleTV that was causing the problem by running Front Row on my MacBook Pro and both remotes seem to navigate Front Row perfectly fine. They both act the same way with AppleTV, whether they are paired or not. It seems as though something happened with my AppleTV. This problem occurred randomly, with no specific cause I can think of.
Please let me know if any of you have ever experienced this problem and what your solution was, if any!
I have tried restoring to factory conditions, resetting settings, ran diagnostics, unplugged and replugged it, and nothing seems to be working!
Oh, and I just replaced the battery on one and have tried swapping batteries, etc.
HELP PLEASE!
Thank you,
Travis

The menus have never been as responsive as they used to since the 2.0 update in my opinion - basically AppleTV seems to cache/buffer remote click if it is busy or perhaps waiting for something to stream from itunes, and when resources become available it suddenly executes all command rapidly which makes it behave wildly in menus.
Usually happens I find after restarting the unit or if streaming drives have gone in to power saving modes and there's a delay while they wake up to feed the AppleTV.

Remote not working properly with Apple's iPod to TV dock/system

Everything appears to be set up right and the remote is communicating with the ipod base, which in turn is connected to the TV... But the Menu feature doesn't seem to work at all or defaults to the music library (no menu, just starts playing)... All the settings appear correct and if I manually select a TV show on the iPOD and can control the position and volume with the remote, but hitting the menu button as one would on the ipod to get the full list of shows either does notthing or starts the music... UG!!! Just bought this today and very diappointed that it seems buggy, not working...
I know this is probably not a high volume issue, but can someone please help???
Thanks!

Don't feel alone. I have the 80GB and my AV kit remote is doing the same thing. Start playing the video, pressing menu doesn't cause a response at all. However, if you hit the "go back" you end up back at the video menu. When you hit play it starts playing 1 of how many songs you have loaded in your ipod.
This has had to be known as an issue by now.
Cheers!

Remote not working properly with one TV

For one of my TV's the remote is not working as it should. Just today - the operating distance from my couch, which is about 8 ft got reduced to about 3 ft. I don't have this problem with my TV in the bed room. I changed the batteries and they are fully charged. Tried calling Verizon - don't get to speak to a human anymore. They prompt me to buy a new remote. Can someone help me.

It's been about an hour since I posted my issue and got your reply. All of sudden everything started working again. All we did was turned off and turned on everythng. Thank you for your help. I never got to try your solution - but will keep that as a possible solution in case it happens again.

My garage band will not work properly with new lion upgrade..HELP

My garage band will not work properly with new lion upgrade..HELP
I have tried to open old session i have done in garage band and many of the effects and instruments I have used will not show up. The system seems to have a bug.

If the graphical user interface looks broken, that is quite often a problem of corrupted user preferences - have you tried to remove the preferences file, as described in the FAQ
http://www.bulletsandbones.com/GB/FAQPages/OddBallProbs.html
Here is again the short version:
Quit GarageBand, if it is running.
Open your User Library in the Finder. It is hidden in MacOS X Lion, so use the Finder's "Go" menu:
Finder > GO hold down the "Options" key, until the library appears in the menu, select it.
In the window that opens, open the folder "Preferences" and remove the file:com.apple.garageband.plist and com.apple.garageband.plist.lockfile
Then try again to run GarageBand and download the loops.
The preferences file stores all you user settings that you set using the "Preferences" panel in GarageBand, also the layout of the GarageBand window and the location of your recent projects. You will have to enter these settings again after removing the file.

HP computer will not work properly with an HP printer

I have the following two items that I am trying to use together:
- HP 23" TouchSmart Desktop, T6500 2.1GHz 4GB DDR3, 500GB HDD (Windows 7)
- HP OfficeJet 6500 Multi-Function Printer/Scanner/Fax
When I try to scan to Adobe Acrobat Professional 9.0, the document goes through the scanner, however the dialog box that I would expect (e.g. "Next Page" or "Done") never shows up. At this point, the system is unresponsive with respect to Adobe or the printer.
I suspect that it is waiting for the input from the dialog box that never showed up. I tried to move the other windows to see if the dialog opened in the background, however I am not able to select any of them (they remain frozen).
I contacted HP Support, only to have them tell me it must be the driver, and I have an "old" printer. (I did not realize that a 9 month old printer was considered "old"). I have tried all of the possible drivers that are available (original disk, downloads, other downloads from HP tech support), none of these resolves the problem.
In any case, they were unable to resolve the problem of having an HP computer work properly with an HP printer. (The printing function seems to work, just very slowly).
Has anyone else heard of this? Is there a resolution?

Update: I am still looking for a solution to this problem - the scanning portion of the Multi-function OfficeJet 6500 does not work properly with the HP TouchSmart computer.
I have not been able to find anyone in HP that can tell me when (or if) new drivers will be released for this printer.
I decided to investigate upgrading to a newer version of printer since HP told me the 9 month old printer I have was "obsolete", only to find that the identical printer is still on sale in many stores. Hmmm....
I feel like I am getting the run-around from HP.
I have since tried several more driver/software combinations, but every time I have the same problem (as described in the previous post).
If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, I would be most happy to hear them.
Thank you.

My iphone5c is still under the 1 year warranty, the top button constantly sticks and does not work properly will Apple still replace my phone even though there is a few chips and scratches on the back?

As Peter says above, only an Apple Store genius can advise you.
But to further clarify, you seem to postulate that if Apple helps you, the cure would be a replacement. That is not necessarily true. Let them look at it and advise you what the remedy is. They may offer you nothing (saying it's your fault), or they may offer you a solution (keeping your current iPhone), or possibly a replacement.

Old Netscape console 4.2 not working properly with new Directory Server 5.2

After successfully installing Messaging Server 5.2 and applying patch 2, the old Netscape Console doesn't work properly, I tried running the script which is given in the link
http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6734-10/index.html
which hobbles the server by creating a set of dummy jar files in order for the directory server console not making any changes on the messaging server. At first I got these messages:
Failed to install a local copy of msgadmin52.jar or one of its supporting files: not a ZIP file (END header not found)
I got the same message for these 2 files:
admserv42.jar
msgadmin52.jar
After that I made real dummy jar files using a zero-length file I created with touch and I got these messages:
class com.netscape.management.admser.AdminServer not found
After that I erased all the files created by the script and I get these messages:
failed to install a copy of admserv51.jar or one of its supporting files: null
failed to install a copy of msgadmin.jar or one of its supporting files: msgadmin52.jar not found at http://192.168.10.205:5001/
and for admserv42.jar I get the same message
Does anyone have a clue on what to do next??
thanks in advance
Eduardo

The thing is that the netscape console 4.5 won't work properly with messaging server 5.2, and the directory server console is not working properly for the directory server. I already know the limitations about these consoles since it is explained in the doc where the procedure of migrating from a 4.x directory server to 5.1. I

Klipsch S4i headphones do not work properly with iPhone 5

I've got a really weird issue with my iPhone 5. I previously purchased an iPod Nano 16GB as well as Klipsch S4i headphones. The headphones has a console with 3 buttons. The topmost button is to increase volume and conversely, the lowest button decreases volume. No problem with either of these buttons.
The center button is operated by the number of times you push it. One push pauses the track (song) being played. A second push resumes play. Two pushes in a row causes the iPod to advance to the next track in the playlist. Three pushes in a row cause the iPod to go back to the beginning of the track being played. If you push three times consecutively then you go back to the track prior to the track which is being played, and so forth depending upon the number of times you keep pushing three times. With me so far? So the S4i console works just fine with the iPod.
However, the S4i console does not work well with the iPhone 5. I went to the Apple store this evening and they restored (reset?) the iPhone 5. I then restored the data to it from my computer once I got home. So the state of the S4i console is this. Push the center button once and it pauses. That is okay. Push the center button again and it resumes play. Still good.
Push the center button twice in a row and it sometimes advances to the next track. Not always unless you are very fast at depressing the button. Push the button three times and it may or may not go back to the beginning of the track. This seems to be a function of 'how fast' you are pushing the button. Literally, you have to be like Quick Draw McGraw on the darn button. That is not the case with the iPod Nano.
Pushing the button multiple times does not necessarily take you forward to the next track or at the start of the one playing or to the track before. While typing this, I managed to get the center button to work better so I thought maybe it is going out. But I don't experience that same problem with the iPod Nano and it was not a problem on the two tech's iPods/iPhones at the Apple store when tried with my S4i headphones attached. So I don't think there is any issue with the center button on the S4i's console or those headphones in general. I also don't think it is a hardware issue as the headphone jack does not seem loose. I have only been using my iPhone 5 for about a week.
In fact, I was able to get the advance function as well as the reverse function for going back to the beginning of the track to work by depressing the center button quickly but if you want to jump back a track then you really have to hit it quickly multiple times. In trying to go back to the beginning of a track or jumping back another or multiple tracks, then if the track you went back to the beginning of begins to play then the pushing three times maneuver does not work. I have no clue what is going on other than it has got to be a programming issue with the iPhone 5. Call me a cynic but I have my doubts that exchanging my new iPhone 5 is going to make a difference.
Moreover, on a number of occasions (more than 5) while playing tunes on the iPhone 5, it suddenly and randomly stops. This happened before the device was restored this evening and I have not had the opportunity to really test it out besides seeing if there is still an issue with the S4i headphones and the iPhone 5. I swear I did not touch or brush against the screen or depress any buttons when this occurred.
Has anyone got an idea what might be the problem? If so, I would be grateful if you could clue me in here.

Maybe it's a safty issue. You should not be able to watch movies while driveing anyway. Does it work when the car is in netral or park and the emergency brake is on. In my lexus thats the only way the front DVD will work.

RFC adapter in XI 3.0 not working properly with BAPI in R/3 4.6C

Here is the scenario.
An XML file is received from our customer. This file contains purchase order information that is used to create a sales order in our SAP 4.6C system. Once the sales order is created an acknowledgement is generated and this is returned back to our customer in an XML format. This scenario is working perfectly fine in our XI 2.0 system but is not working properly in our XI 3.0 test environment. Our custom function module in R/3 is a wrapper function that uses a standard SAP BAPI to create the sales order. Part of the function module does use the statement
call function 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'
The last thing the BAPI does is call another function module that using an RFC destination that will return and order acknowledgement.
Here is what happens within XI and our SAP system.
The XML file is received and mapped to our imported RFC. The RFC adapter is called and the information is passed onto SAP where our customer function module executed. The sales order is created within SAP without any problems and the second function module is called which references an RFC destination assigned to our XI 3.0 system. The information is sent back to XI and an appropriate file is created for our customer. All seems to be working properly except that when the original RFC is sent from XI to SAP, SAP creates a short dump stating
"call to messaging system failed: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.DeliveryException:" Then it is put back into the que where 5 minutes later it executes again and trys to recreate the sales order in SAP. (again, this same function module executing from XI 2.0 works fine)
I believe I have everything configured properly because the SAP side is being executed and I am successfully passing information back from SAP to XI. However the original function module in SAP is failing with the above error message. It appears that the original function module cannot communicate back with XI. I have had SAP looking at this issue and they have not been successful yet in solving this problem.
Any ideas.
Thanks,
Jim d'Hulst

Hi,
I think the problem is with the send back of acknowledgement to XI. Does the DeliveryException state something about the sender agreement? I guess you are using a statement like below:
CALL FUNCTION 'ZABCD'
destination <tcp/ip destination>
exporting
input = ack.
In that case, check whether the TCP/IP destination is working fine. Also, to be able to exchange message, the structure of the Function Module ZABCD needs to be identified as the sender in XI Configuration (Integration Directory).
Also, check your config with the blog mentioned below:

ITunes not working properly with HP running Vista home premier

My Ipod touch works fine on my windows XP pro system but does not sync photos and podcasts from my other computer at home: new HP Multimedia system running Vista Home Premier. It goes through all the motions but will only add a few photos from a file and they are partially corrupt. Many times it won't add any selected photos. Same with podcasts, they won't sync to the ipod. Have tried various USB ports.

well, it is easy. i just wish it to sync in a manner that i do not get frustrated with it. it just does not like to sync when i open up itunes on desktop to update apps when they have updates. i have got to revert to plugging in the phone and ipad for it to sync and update apps. if you read through the whole thing you would have found it out. all i am saying is that itunes 10.6.1 and ios 5.1 have bugs and issues that make it hard for a iphone and ipad user to sync and update apps. itunes is slow to open with windows 7 as well as i did not mention that before but i have mentioned it in my other forum posts.
summary:
itunes 10.6.1, is slow to open on windows 7,
syncing ipad and iphone does not update without plugging them in.
wifi sync is not working properly or as it should, it doesn't recognize phone and ipad unless plugged in.

IPhone 5 not working properly with USB interface in Honda Accord.

The iPhone 5 seems not to work properly with the USB interface in my 2012 Honda Accord. It says I have 500 songs when I only have 430, it skips over songs and freezes during play.

I actually have a different problem. I am unable to play Pandora through my USB connection in my 2012 Honda Accord SE with my iPhone 5. I can't get map directions through my speakers or any sounds at all. Any idea if a fix will be available?
