Sky+ box conection to ipad

My sky+ box loses conection with my iPad on an almost daily basis. If I turn off the box from the mains then reconnect my sky+ box then works fine. But this only lasts 36 hours at the most. Is there an easy rectification? I think this only started from the last software update. many thanks neathy01

I never said that the router is the cause of the problem. Something is happening to the connection between the Sky box and the router, causing the issue that you have - it's trying to get to the bottom of what the problem actually is that is the difficult bit - made even more difficult by the intermittent nature . I'm on BT broadband, using the BT home hub, and I don't have any such issues with connectivity, so your router not being a Sky router should make no difference whatsoever. Am I correct to assume that the actual wifi connection is fine on the ipad and it is able to access the internet without issue - it's just when you try to connect to the Sky box that you see a problem? If so, that, and the fact that a reboot of the Sky box resolves the problem would tend to suggest that the problem is coming from the Sky box end rather than your router. Is there any kind of pattern as to when the problem occurs? Any particular time of day?just before, during, or just after doing some particular action on the box for instance?

If I buy a HDMI to VGA adapter can I watch sky go from my iPad

If I buy this adapter will I be able to watch Sky Go from my iPad through my Apple TV? Because it doesn't support HDMI out put?

No, AppleTV doesn't support cabled inputs (other than ethernet, I beleive).
Assuming SkyGo supports it, and you have the iPad and AppleTV on the same network, you can use Airply to mirror the iPad to the TV.(http://www.apple.com/support/appletv/airplay/). However, many streaming video apps do not support Airplay (by vendor design).

BT Sport not working on my sky box

Hi
I registered for BT Sport at the beginning of July, and it has been activated, i know this cause I can access it on my phone, and computer, however it is not working on my sky box, I presume that the card no is wrong.
I have phoned the call centre but unfortunately they cant help me, they don't seem to understand my problem, and they told me to unplug my bt vision box, and when I said I have not got a bt vision box, he said he couldn't help me.
Could one of the mods look into this for me please
Thanks

I have spent most of the afternoon to find out why I keep getting the "wrong card" message on my freesatfromsky box and have got absolutely no where so far
The "help" message on the bt sport page says call BT - you do this and after being passed around for over an hour I finally gor through to someone who said that I was set up on the BT system so it's down to sky !!! Oh, and by the way, BT you never rang me back when you said you would!
Tried ringing them and all lines were busy - maybe a few others had the same issue ???
What a farce, will try again later once I've calmed down...

Icloud backup - my ipad is hung with the dialogue box saying "this iPad hasn't been backed up in 4 weeks. Backup happen when this iPad is plugged in locked and connected to WiFi". Even after doing what is said, I am not able to do anything with the iPad -

My ipad is hung with the dialogue box saying "this iPad hasn't been backed up in 4 weeks. Backup happen when this iPad is plugged in, locked and connected to WiFi". Even after doing that, I am not able to do anything with the iPad - neither able to reboot nor able to get to the homescreen. The dialogue box doesn't go at all even after pressing OK a hundred times. I treid tacking the back up through itunes and through 3G conncetion but of no avail. Please help

I too have been having this issue since about 12/14. That is around the same time I got the Ipad for my kids. I am unsure if it is related. I have tried logging out of icloud/deleting it and trying again. Removing most of the apps to sync. I reset my router. All of the attempts have produced zero results. I will be anxiously watching this thread for some help. Good luck to you also

Connecting sky+ box to my 20inch display

The subject kind of says it all really.
Basically I see the flow going like this:
Signal comes out of sky box on a scart -> Convert cable to dvi -> plug into display card that is on back of computer.
I really dont think it can be that simple!
But there are a few different things i have been thinking.....
1. Do I need a video/tv card to plug the sky box into?
2. As the output of the box is scart can I just get a cable to convert it to dvi, and plug it in?

Hello,
I doubt you can find a connection to go between the iBook and Sky Box.
Unless the Sky Box is Wireless and you can connect to it via your iBook network settings.
Even then, what playback software would be available for your PPC iBook to play back these programs.
Does Sky even permit programs being copied from their boxes to computers?

AirPlay video support is specific to each apps. In other word, it's possible that one apps gives you the possibility to AirPlay video while another one will not.
I don't use SkyGo but pay attention to the AirPlay logo beside AppleTV; is it a small speaker or the video icon (square with a triangle in it)? If the AppleTV is followed by an small speaker it means your app only support audio AirPlay.
Sometimes, you can try to mirror your display as a turn around but some apps even prevent that.

Sky Box Goes Into Standy

When I turn off my TV using the remote control for my TV it also puts the sky box into standby. Is there anyway to prevent this? It never used to do this.

I assume that you mean that you are watching TV via the BT Vision box?
How is the TV connected to the BT Vision Box, SCART or HDMI?
If its SCART, are you using the correct SCART output at the back of the box?

I cannot remove the dialog box from my ipad. it says 'not enough storage'. I click on settings and close but still there. How can i remove this message? Thnx

Try this.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

BT Sport through Sky Box question?

I am thinking of getting BT broadband so I get the free BT Sport HD through my Sky box.
My question is do I need a Sky subscription for it to work?
I am now out of subscription but my sky box still works and I have my viewing card number still..
Thanks

I can answer that in this miasma of confusion. You don't need a Sky sub. You won't be able to record of course.

SKY Box to TV Tuner

Can someone please help, i have installed the card and software and have connected an rf cable from the SKy box to the CATV input on the tv tuner. When i auto scan, i can't get any channels, what is the correct setup?
Any help or suggestion appreciated.

it won't work that way, as if detected the sky box will only show as one channel (the one it is set to output RF to), same as if you connected a video
even if your sky box was set to RF output, I still don't think it would work due to macrovision protection
however if your sky box has s-video or composite outputs, you could try connecting using those, but whichever way you do it, you still have to manually change channels on the sky box

Line Cord Error when connect to Sky+ Box with BT65...

Bought a new Panasonic TV and had to re sort cables took photos and replaced exactly as before. Did connect the new TV to splitter that works fine.
BT 6500 shows Line Cord error as soon as Sky box connected on own, with micro filter, with splitter. No errors prior to today so wonder if doing something daft.
We have 3x 6500s in house is it REN related? But as worked previously a bit odd.
Extension socket behind TV to micro filter - to spliter as before. Plug in cable to SKY plus box and get a line chord error showing on handset. Disconect and fault goes but noticed this fault reported on many forums BT, Virgin ....ANY advice welcome.

make sure you have connected the cable to Sky box into correct port.... the sky box has 2... an ethernet port for a cat5 cable ( rj45 bigger port ) and an rj11 port for the phone cord.... the problem is this will fit in both!! but if connected to the ethernet port it will put a loop on line and cause fault on phone line...
