Software 7.0(6897.5) update causes loss of MP4 audio

I recently updated one of my Apple TVs (AT) to software version 7.0(6897.5).
After the update some of my MP4 movies no longer had audio.
But other MP4 movies played audio fine.
iTunes was still able to play all the MP4 movies on my PC with the audio present.
So this told me the problem was with the AT.
I then tried the menu restart option in AT, no luck.
I then tried unplugging the AT (both HDMI and power) and reconnecting after a few minutes, no luck.
I then tried swapping the AT with another one that I own that has software version 6.1.1(6698.99.19) and all of my MP4 movies play their audio just fine, like before the update to 7.0
I then swapped back to the AT unit with 7.0 version software and again some MP4 movies play audio fine and others have no audio.
This tells me there is a bug in version 7.0. Any word on when there might be a fix?

An update. I tried something with one of my MP4 movies that would not play audio with software version 7.0 that worked.
I re-created the MP4 movie and changed the audio format from 5.1 format to stereo format and now I get the movie with sound.
The original MP4 movie in 5.1 audio still has no sound.
It appears the software version 7.0 is not compatible with 5.1 audio format.
I hope they fix this bug soon because a lot of my movies are in 5.1 audio format.

Update causes loss of authority for i pod

I installed the latest up date, and now itunes has removed all my purchased music from my ipod because it says it is not authorized. I have done nothing to any of the hard ware just installed the up date now all I have is imported CDs on the ipod but the purchases are still listed on itunes. but I can't play them there either because my computer is not authorized.
This is the second time this has happened to me, last time I just authorized my computer again, but you can only do that 5 times.
How do I actually get hold of some geek at apple to put this right, as it should not be down to an other users forum to fix a problem they have caused.

I solved this well sort of.
Short answer,
Deauthorise the computer, as many times as it takes for itunes to say no authorised computers, reauthorise you computer and it works again. If like mine did your ipod refuses to sync all the tracks first try just keep hitting the sync button untill they all copy over.
Long rant.
I copied the itunes libary to a different partition on my hard disc, I thought about copying it to a removable hard disc just in case I managed to wipe it out completly. I then checked how many computers apple thought were authorised, it thought 2, once from my first instalation of i-tunes and the second when I had to re authorise the same machine last time this happened.
I then went to the store tab and deauthorised this computer I-tunes then belived I only had one computer authorised this one and i-tunes still said it was not authorised and would not copy purchases to the i-pod. So I went back to the store tab and deauthorised the same computer a second time. I-tunes then said no authorised computers, i-tunes still showed all purchased music but wouldn't let it play as the computer was not authorised, so copying the itunes libary was actually an unesersary precaution. I then authorised the computer again. Partial succsess purchase would now play on the computer through itunes.
I then tried to sync my ipod, 40 songs of 200+ copied before I got a windows error message telling me the remote disc could not be read or written to. I tried twice more to sync my ipod with the same result, I re booted the pc and tried again no difference, so reluctantly I hit the restore button and reformatted the ipod. BAD move on trying to resync the ipod 400 of almost 3000 tracks copied over (most are under 10 seconds of langauge learning material)I tried to sync a second time and a further 40 tracks copied over, between 20 to 150 tracks copied over at each sucsesive attempt it took a long time to restore.

OS 10.4.10 Update Causing Audio Popping (AND HUM) Issues:

OS 10.4.10 Update Causing Audio Popping (AND HUM) Issues:
The problem on my Intel Mac mini with external Klipsch speakers (two mid-range/high and a subwoofer) is REAL obvious as the system emits a hum like a Spinal Tap amplifier turned up to #11 when 10.4.10 powers down the audio circuitry
Then, if I play a song in iTunes, it first pops and the hum disappears right before playing.
Quite annoying. I restored the mini from a recent backup to 10.4.9. Problem gone.
I'm glad I test updates on the mini before applying them to my Intel iMac 24. I guess I'll just hide & watch what happens before doing any more updates.
Here's what I sent to Apple tech support:
Guys/Gals (OS X Engineers):
Concerning the Snap, Crackle Pop Audio problem in the 10.4.10 update:
Please. Just do the right thing and fix the audio.
There is no need to power cycle the audio subsystem to save .0005 amps on the laptop line.
And then to make your Mac mini/iMac/other desktop users have to put up with it when using AC power is ridiculous.
Put the audio subsystem back like it was in 10.4.9 and let the laptop battery freaks looking for mini-amp savings get a "work-a-round".
Crikey!

Libby,
Backup is unable to make a restorable by Disk Utility backup. You can restore pieces of the software as outlined in my FAQ about backing up user data:
http://www.macmaps.com/backup.html
But to be able to restore a backup with Disk Utility, you need a cloning utility to have made the backup.
I suggest starting a new thread here, where someone else could help you out better:
http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=752&start=0
First off, you'll get a wider audience who may be able to solve your problem. Secondly, responses to you won't confuse the original poster with solutions that don't apply to them. And thirdly, you'll know for certain whether or not a response applies to you.

Recent windows 7 updates caused serious conflicts??

I have two NI PCIe-1433 boards and the NI Max v5.4 installed. Recent win 7 (64 bit) automatic updates, within the last 10 days seemed to cause serious problems. Win 7 couldn't boot any more. Sometimes computer turns on and off by itself before the windows logo shows up. Sometimes it crashes before I can login.
I did a fresh reinstallation of win 7. The same problem happened after some automatic updates. I can boot and use windows 7 if I unplug both NI cards. This makes me think the problem is in NI driver/card. I'm reporting it here to see if anybody experiences similar things.
Earlier this year Win 7 automatic updates caused a problem with my Canon printer/scanner. Canon supplied scan software still does not work today.

Hi Jeremy
Thank you for responding. I do not know which update. I know it's due to some update(s) that happened recently.
After I reinstalled the fresh Windows 7 (64 bit), I installed NI IMAQ software. I was able to use both boards to acquire images at that point. However Windows 7 kept updating itself. Later the same problem happened again.
After unplugging both boards, I have been using the computer for 2 days without a problem. My computer's power supply is 650W. Does the boards require a lot of power?

10.6.5 update causing network issues

Variations of this have already been posted but when I described my particular issues to Apple support the advice was roll back to 10.6.4!
I have 3 Macs, and this only appears to be affecting my MBP 13". Updating to 10.6.5 causes:
- ethernet to stop working; it shows as connected and shows correct IP but there is no acccess to web, offsite ping, or email. Reboots very occasionally get it to work but when changing any aspect of network config (eg switching on wireless or changing location) it fails again. Booting with ethernet cable plugged in usually results in the spinning beachball.
- wireless works reasonably, but any change to config causes loss of network as described above. VPN under wireless becomes very temperamental
- when the network fails, finder also crashes and restarting it only gets it going for less than a minute before it crashes out again.
- waking from sleep also appears to cause the network problems
I can replicate the problems easily; works fine up to 10.6.4 but as soon as a later upgrade is applied then it fails. To clear the problem I only have to reinstall the OS over the existing installation, I don't have to do a clean install. The problems occur on both my home network and my work network
I'm afraid that I can't get any logs from the failure because that would mean me breaking it and having to reinstall. I'm currently waiting for the next upgrade but wonder if anyone else has seen this - any thoughts/pointers welcome!
Kerr

I have the exact same problem on two of my imacs, both have the 10.6.5 update and have been having networking problems since November of last year. I have pinged both IP addresses successfully so they are active.I have also tweaked the proxy settings for our network, trying all combinations, to no avail.
I have at least succeeded in getting one of the macs to connect to email and Safari but the connection in Safari times out after about 10 minutes and then hangs and you have to force quit. Thereafter only a reboot will restore Safari.
The second imac is in a worse state, in that it does not connect up at all even though the network is active and IP has been successfully pinged.

ITunes 11.4 update cause issue with AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext

Along with many others iMac users, the iTunes 11.4 update cause a window that informs that the system extension "/System/Library/Extensions/AppleUSBEthernetHost.kext" was installed improperly and cannot be used.

Am on Snow Leopard and downloaded and installed the update to ITUNES yesterday - Itunes itself installed okay - but I did get the same system extension cannot be used.
I don't have any ethernet devices - so I checked the System/Library folder and the date on the file Is July 13, 2009.
My IPOD (probably now classic because of age) synced okay through USB port, and everything is working fine. As the update was to allow more devices to sync with ITUNES it may be the error message is not correct one.
Seriously - Apple needs to get out of Silicon valley - the message if correct is for techies - not for users who just want the software to update without problems. Lately Apple is preaching to their own choir.
I did send feedback through Itunes to Apple - -- If you are experiencing crashes after this update make sure you send the crash report to apple explaining that it is happening after this install -- also call or schedule a call with apple support --

10.8.5 Supplemental Update causing external drive error?

I'm seeing a lot of discussion about 10.8.5 having a bug that caused some external drives to eject improperly. I have never had this issue, but just did the software update -- which *I believe* was the 10.8.5 Supplemental Update, because I remember it saying this:
"Fixes an issue that may cause external drives to be ejected after the computer goes to sleep"
... and now I AM getting that error message sometimes after my computer is woken from sleep! So, for me, the Supplemental Update caused the problem that others had been having, but that I'd never had, with the previous update!
I'm assuming I'm fully up to date with my software updates because, when I check, there are no updates to be found.
It's frustrating because I never had this issue, and the update that was supposed to fix it for everyone else, cause it to start happening to me.
Any help or thoughts on this would be appreciated!

Try running the combo update.

10.7.4 update causes system lockup

Hello, I have Mac Pro (2006) with ATI Radeon 5770 (Apple Genuine) and 10.7.4 update causes system lockup.
I installed 10.7.4 update via software update and the update works fine.
But, after a couple of minutes, there are artfacts on display and the system locks up except for a mouse cursor or the display goes blank.
Obiously, ATI 5770 is overheating but on Windows 7, I run FurMark for an hour to see if 5770 is broken or not and no problem found.
So I reinstalled 10.7.4 (combo), reset PRAM & SMC. I found out about SMC error https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3940135?tstart=0 and replaceed AppleSMC.kext from 10.7.3 by using KextHelper but no luck.
I did clean install of 10.7.4 and everything seemed okay but the system locked up during the Setup Assistant.
I restroed the entire system (10.7.3) from Time Machine and am out of ideas. Does anybody have a simular problem?
btw, MP is upgraded to 2 quad core x5355 and to the firmware MP2.1 (2007)

Update.
I ran Quartz Debug and disabled Quartz Extreme to see what'll happen.
No more system lock-up nor artifacts!
I reported to Apple and hope they're gonna fiz it soon.

A recent update causing macbook to become noisy

A recent software update from apple is causing my white 13 inch macbook to heat up and use the fan unnecessarily. I mean, I have no applications open and its heating up! What's going on? This only used to happen when I watched hd videos online. I can understand that. But now its occurring shortly after I start up the macbook with absolutely no applications running. Has this happened to anyone else after the latest snow leopard update?

recent update causing macbook to become noisy
Not standing on its power cord, by any chance!!??
Try resetting some of the hardware involved (PRAM~NVRAM). See this Apple KB for details, etc.:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
Can't hurt to try, and apparently this has helped others recently.
If still no joy, walk that little heat source into the nearest Apple Store and ask staff there for assistance, etc.

Nokia E6 update caused bsod.

The phone worked fine the 4 hours I got to own this product including use with the nokia suite until it told me about "an important update" for my phone.
This update caused a bluescreen that bricked it, and now I have no phone.
The only software running besides it was skype and this has never happened to my PC before and will probably never happen again. I am running windows 7 64bit, and its a work pc. Searching this forum I see that this is apparently a problem.
I won this phone in a competition and have no paper of purchase for warranty.
Thanks nokia. <3
Solved!
Go to Solution.

blue screens of death are not caused by Nokia programs, i never had such an issue.
bad or outdated graphics card drivers, low memory or even problems with the hard disk, can cause them.
it depends on how big is the damage, if they can fix just by reinstalling the firmware, then a reinstallation is all your device might get.
in case an internal component is damaged (highly unlikely) and it's too expensive then you might get a new device.
anyway i don't think they will disassemble a device to fix another.

Windows Update Causes G500/Win8.1 to basically lock up

I have a G500 with a Win 8.1 OS and windows update causes for lack of better words a lock up.
What happens is I'll restart the system and Windows Update will kick in with a couple product updates and that will take about ten min or so and then a message pops up Windows update failed reverting system settings do not turn off your PC and a little spinning wheel off to the side that just spins and spins. First time it happened I let it spin for about six hours and then did a system reinstall and everything was fine for about a day or so and Windows Update started up again with the exact same result and I ended up reinstalling the OS again.
I have Windows Update turned completely off right now.
Any idea what is going on and how to correct the problem?

hi scjax2014,
Your issue might be similar to this thread.
The "Failure configuring updates" error message can be caused by a security software that's blocking the update (eg. Norton 360, Mcafee Internet Security, etc.) or a BIOS setting like Secure Boot.
To isolate, can you try the following:
1. Apply one of the resolution in this microsoft article.
2. If same problem, try to Install the Windows Updates manually by navigating to Control Panel (large icon view) > Windows Update.and select "Check for updates" (Windows will now gather updates applicable for your machine). When finished, click on the important updates install the updates in this order (oldest ones first):
- Critical Updates (if any)
- Security Updates
- Updates for Windows 8
If you still get an error, try to install the updates one by one or three at a time and observe.
Microsoft thread:
Error Code 800f0922 for KB2871690
Let me know how it goes.

My ipod touch 4g just updates today on itunes and the update caused more trouble than good for me.

Also my itunes doesn't allow "enable disk use" anymore. Can anyone help? My ipod now says that it's the 4.3.4 version

- Unjailbroken iPod never showed % battery. Just the icon.
- Unjailbroken iPod Touches never had a disk mode.

What version of iTunes do you have installed? If you are trying to update to iOS 6 you need iTunes 10.7 or later.
