STB Green light wont go away
Ever since I got FIOS installed, the STB's green light hasn't gone off. I have no messages, but the green light is STILL on. Is there anyway to turn this thing off? Its not a huge deal, but its bugging me a little. Anyone got any ideas?
That's the light to tell you it's on. It is near messages but if you look closely, you'll see it says on next to it. Turn off your box and the light will go away.

My little green light wont go off and photobooth only takes green pix. what happened and how do i fix it?
thanks....Here is how to troubleshoot and fix your problem:
• If Apple's http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090
suggestions do not help you, (are you certain that you
used the correct "reset" procedure?), yours is most likely a
hardware problem that will require a professional fix.
Unless you have a current backup, make one now.
Then use the final "Troubleshooting" suggestion:
"... contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for service."
(Apple has changed the built-in camera's name on newer Macs from "iSight" to "FaceTime" and then to "FaceTime HD." Regardless of the name of your Mac's built-in camera, the same info and troubleshooting applies.)
• If you want to try one more thing on your own first, restart Mac
and use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions. Then
download and apply the latest Combo Update for your OS.
At present, the latest Snow Leopard Combo is here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
• Repair permissions again immediately following the system restart
that completes the Combo update.
Properly applying the Combo version of updates can sometimes correct software problems, but, if your trouble is caused by a hardware problem, there are no user serviceable parts of the camera. Contact Apple or an Apple-Authorized Service Provider for hardware help.

My wireless mouse isnt working. new batteries, green light comes on, blinks, cursor wont move
my wireless mouse isnt working. new batteries, green light comes on, blinks, cursor wont move...?
For the future, you might want to consider changing batteries in both the keyboard and mouse before they run down completely and/or have any older USB keyboard and mouse on hand for emergency (those can also come in handly if you need to boot using keyboard commands which sometimes fail to respond with a bluetooth keyboard).

K9N Neo V3 wont boot at all and has constant green light
Hi guys, as you can see I'm new to the forum and new to PC building this is my second rig and not my favorite for some reason this motherboard just wont boot. when i push the start button the heatsink fan spins and the power led stays green but other than that there's no other activity
heres my specs
MSI K9N Neo V3
AMD Semphron 3000 am2
512mb NANYA PC2-4200
Tested with 250w and 300w psus
Ati radion graphics card Pci-e
200gb hd
note these parts are mostly testing items to test the board before i buy more expensive parts any help would be greatQuote from: Fredrik on 24-October-08, 05:20:56
You will barely, barely get by with a very good 300W PSU, but that needs to be very good. Any hardware changes or addings will render your system unusable. I would recommend you a Zalman unit of about 400 - 500 watts. ~80 - 100 $. So you can "develop" the system.
But your system seems to pass POST. Can you disconnect the hard disk, possible opticals (CD/DVD) and if you have any USB things, and try again, please. Make sure you got the required power cables connected!
Nanya memory is new to me. It wouldn't be a Dell special (memory)?
thanks for the reply im currently using a dell system but my new builds motherboard just wont boot at all thats the main problem the psus seem to boot other systems so im unsure to whether the board is healthy or not since i cant connect the cases original audio plug to this mobo :( its unable to give me beep commands and the green light as ive read else where often means something bad but the condition dosent seem to change even when i change out parts
and the psu is a 12v -
I have a Airport Extreme that is dropping the wireless signal alot (several times a day) The green light will go amber, but the internet service is still ok if your using an ethernet cable directly plugged in. When the light goes amber all devices that is using wireless will lose there wireless icon. The only way to get the green light back is to unplug the Airport device and replug it back in. I tried the reset on the back but still no luck. What is the fix?
Let's see if I can get this straight.
You have an Airport Extreme base station that is set to "Create a wireless network" and you have the box checked for "allow this network to be extended"....
Then you have an Airport Express that is set to "Extend a wireless network" which you selected the name of your network in the box...
Correct?
See this Apple document:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4259?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
The wireless unit on the right of the diagram can be either of the newer Apple base stations.

Blackberry Notebook -- Red light STEADY, Green light BLINKS 5 TIMES, wont come on
Ive charged my Playbook for 30 minutes via computer. I tried cutting on the tablet and the red light came on STEADY, then the GREEN LIGHT BLINKED 5 times. It would not power on. I also tried cutting it on while plugged in and the same thing occured. I have tried resetting it by holding the + and - sign for 20 secs and no success. I bought the playbook from Radio Shack NEW in February. Any suggestions?
You can Try this and let us know wich solution works...
If your battery is dead or near dead, you have a problem. If you follow these instructions you may be able to make a recovery but it will take some time.
The charger is controlled by software. The software will not run because the battery voltage is too low. When the battery is too low and you turn on the PB, It will only run for about 4 minutes and then shut down again. During this 4 minutes, the charger will begin charging but since the battery voltage is still too low, the unit will shut down again and the charger will shut off.
To get the voltage up sufficiently for the PB To continue, you have to have the charger plugged in and every 5 minutes or so, you have to hold the power button on until the red light flashes then release it.It will once again recharge for 4 minutes. You may have to repeat these steps at least 10 times. Once the voltage gets up a bit, the charger should stay on but it will takes 6 hours to fully recharge the battery. When your charger is charging, it will feel warm to the touch so check it often to see if it is in fact charging. -
My issue is that I can't find a way to have the camera switched off when the app is open and so this means if I want the app open all day to receive calls then the camera is going to be on the whole time. Even if it didn't potentially drain the battery, or add to the CPU usage or whatever else may cause any problems whatsoever (wheel of death!), I just don't want the camera on as I don't see myself ever wanting to use the video call feature but I would use the audio/call multiple times throughout the day to make and receive calls. The camera being on when the app is open is enough to prevent me from using the app. Also ever since seeing that episode of criminal minds where if you saw the green light on above the screen then it meant the killer was watching you!
Basically I just can't believe there isn't a way to disable the camera whilst having the app running. I know when initiating an audio call the camera goes away, but I would like the camera away the whole time. To me it just would make sense that if you click the video option then the camera is on, and if you click the audio option then the camera goes off. It just seems waaaaay to basic a thought for apple to have missed... Let's face it, we're not all as pretty as the people in the apple adverts and don't want to see our ugly mugs staring back as us when we work all day at our macs!I have exactly the same concern. It seems it would be a simple fix for Apple to allow users to turn off the camera (and even the mic) while keeping FaceTime open -- especially now that it turns out FaceTime must remain open in order to send and receive iPhone calls on a Mac.
I like to think this new functionality of FaceTime will be baked into a future release of Yosemite, as the current setup has that not-quite-finished feel of a work in progress. In the meantime, there's nothing like a little piece of Post-It stuck over the camera to keep the NSA from watching your face as you type a post to the Apple Support Communities. -
I have been having a problem for a little while now, and I have decided to overlook it for the most part. However, it is really starting to get on my nerves. The issue I don't believe is with the MacBook Pro itself, however with the MagSafe power adapter. The adapter itself is in great condition, it is brand new, but when I attach it to the computer, the computer reads that it is there, as it shows it is charging or is charged as shown by the battery indicator in the top right of the OS X toolbar. However, the amber and/ or green light doesn't come on, right away - the first time - most of the time, on the adapter head itself. I usually have to unplug it and plug it back in multiple times before I get a light to come on. I have tried to clean the adapter itself, and the MagSafe port on the computer, but that seems to only help for a short amount of time, and it doesn't look real dirty, or like any pins are stuck on the adapter. I have also tried other outlets, but that doesn't seem to help, so I don't think I am getting dirty power.
Unfortunately, it *could* be the computer. And it could be the adapter. Aside from trying Resetting the System Management Controller there's not much you can do except taking it in for testing.

I have a MacBook Pro. My mac can detect wifi. But will not connect anywhere. I did get connected via TCP/IP settings but I can't connect to any wifi anywhere. Network diagnostic has a green light for wi-fi and wi-fi settings. Red light for the rest. (Network settings, ISP, Internet and server.)
Hello NotAppleSavy,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the computer wont connect to networks. I see you have used network diagnostic. I would recommend that you read this article, there are a lot of other things you can do in this article that may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

My keyboard will connect wirelessly but my mouse will not. I have tried many times, put new batteries in etc. The Bluetooth appears to be on (as the wireless keyboard is working). I don't have a 'wired' mouse so I can't get into preferences etc. Is the mouse dead perhaps? The green light is flickering so it should be ok???
Thank you for your help
Sully (frustrated Irishman)From what you say I would suggest the batteries are not connecting properly.
First, thoroughly clean all contacts, both inside the mouse and the contact points of the batteries. Use an alcohol based cleaner (whisky will do, hic!) dampen (not wet) cotton buds for cleaning.
Then check to see if they fit firmly. If you can shake your mouse and hear things are loose, that will be the batteries. Check the make. Apple and Duracell, in that order, are the best batteries. Where slight undersizing has been reported they are with other than the foregoing.
You can resolve the size problem with appropriate packing but that will always be a makeshift solution. After, reassemble, turn on the mouse and with luck, away you go.
Hopefully this will solve your problem but in any case let us know how you get on.

"You are not connected to the internet" with a green light on Airport
Using airport extreme with my MacBook, The airport shows a steady green light, but I cannot connect to the internet and my Safari shows "You are not connected to the internet".
I tried getting a direct connection, but didn't work, I will be taking my MacBook to have it checked tomorrow.
I called my ISP, thought had to do with my DSL modem, but it works fine with a direct connection to the PC.
I have my network checked with a check mark beside it.
Any help?For future references, I have come to solve my own problem and I'm now on line.
After I reset my DSL modem, I went into my System Preferences, Network, then Sharing.
Clicked on Internet tab, and chose " Share your connection using Airport".
In my Airport Options, I checked the inputs to make sure the settings match.
And viola, I'm online and 2 floors away from my Airport Extreme.
Hope this comes in handy for future users.
I'm still going to get my Ethernet card checked tomorrow. -

I've got a green light but express not connecting to speakers
I've configured my express to my home's wireless network and its attached to my stereo and speaker inputs via rca cables, but when I try connecting to them via iTunes Airplay drop down menu, i can't get no satisfaction, or connection. There is a solid green light on my base station. Am I being stupid and missed the obvious? I have tried setting the base station up as a wireless network itself and connecting that way, this didn't work either. I created the network but got no connection, all I got was intermittment amber flasing lights on the base station. Anyone have a clue? The basestation is plugged a metre away from the the amp and speakers on the floor, will this have anything to do with issue?
Hi markwmsn,
Thanks alot for your comments! I've responded below IN CAPS. Short but by no means sweet, as I think I might have to buy some AirTunes enable speakers, and maybe a new express?
I don't think the distance between the express and the amp or the fact that some of the equipment is on the floor is relevant so long as they are wired together correctly (usually express output -> amp input & amp output -> speakers) and the correct amp input and output are selected. I'M COMING OUT OF THE EXPRESS VIA A MINI STEREO TO DUAL RCA CABLE INPUT
The flashing amber light when you put the Express in "Create a network" mode just means it couldn't find the internet any more. Rejoin it to your home's wireless network or connect it by ethernet. YEAH I REALISED STRAIGHTAWAY AND CHANGED BACK, WAS TRYING ANYTHING
When you try connecting via iTunes AirPlay, does the express not show up in the list of speakers, IT SHOWS UP BUT DOESN”T CONNECT does it show up but not connect, or does it connect but not play?
Have you enabled AirPlay on the express? YES
Have you selected on the amp the input to which the express audio output is connected? I CAN’T DO THAT ON THIS AMP, I PLUGGED RCA’S INTO THE EXTERNAL INPUTS
Thanks again, if you have anymore thoughts, they'd be much appreciated!

ISight Camera not working and green light won't cut off
Ok, so I used to use macs all the time (exclusively) then I left for a few years, and now that I am back I have had a great experience so far except for this oddity...
I have no idea why but all of the sudden my little green light beside my built-in isight camera won't go away, I am not even trying to use it in any application. When I do, however, try to use it in photobooth for example it yields nothing but blackness. So, to troubleshoot I figured I'd try two things:
Re-installing Mac OS X from scratch using the CDs that came with it (no big loss, I wanted to customize the installation anyways)
Reset the SMC (I am used to resetting PRAM and stuff like that, so it's been a while for me)
Both of those have yielded no change.
I would have searched the forums for answers but apparently that feature has been turned off temporarily to help "improve support", or something I read rather quickly earlier lol
So I call upon you, Mac Geniuses, to please come to my aid...surely there is something else I can do to fix the isight on my macbook. I just got it, granted I got it refurbished from Apple, I expected nothing less than top notch from Apple as they have always delivered before.
Thanks in advance for any help!!
-JoshuaOk, my mistake...When I went to reset the SMC I noticed when I upgraded the memory the retention bar that holds things *around the battery, I guess* into place wasn't in there the way it should be, the metal tab wasn't in it's little slot, so I fixed that error, then went on with the procedure and then no more problem
I'm an idiot, Apple rules, I'll be the first to admit it LOL
Have a great day!
