This is the strangest video capture problem I have ever seen!

Background: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8362257#8362257
Problem: No preview in FCP or iMovie but controls work
Solution: have the tape running first!
This is nuts Can anyone explain the technology (or lack thereof) behind this one. I almost lost my mind until I found the referenced post. Thank buddha for Apple discussions!

    My iPod mini, 4gb is hard to get serviced obviously because they dont make them anymore
    It is as simple to get it serviced as the day you purchased it.
    How is it hard to get it serviced?
    How long have you had your iPod?
    i get maybe 4-5 hours of battery life, maybe even 6 if im lucky
    That is not good but it's not "terrible".
    If you've had it less than a year, send it back to Apple to replace the battery.
    thought that i might buy an attachment type accesorie that i plug into the usb port on my ipod
    It's called a dock connector, not a USB port.
    i found a product in the online store, that i guess you place the ipod mini on, and it gives you up to 20 or so more hours of time but then it says that you have to have a firewire port or cable?
    What is it? The firewire port is on the computer, not the iPod.
    If the original battery is going bad, the first thing to do is get that sorted out.

  • I heard that there was a problem with Apple being vulnerable to Hackers. Has anyone seen an update for this issue? My IPad received the update last night but I have not seen anything for Safari.

    Mac OS X 10.9.2 was released today for this issue and others. Earlier versions are not affected.

  • My PS cs6 ask me to buy the program.  I bought it several years ago.  This is the third or 4th time I have had to talk to someone to straighten the program out.  How can we remedy this problem PERMANENTLY?

    What steps are you following each of those times to get things working again?
    The way that Adobe activation and serialization works is kinda like signing into a website. When you log in, a cookie is left on your computer so that you don't have to sign in every time. With Adobe activation and serialization, you get similar cookie files, that way you never have to go through that process again. Adobe never touches those files again, it just checks them to make sure they are there.
    You issue you are encountering is the result of this sort of cookie file being deleted, damaged, or invalidated in some way. In most cases, it is because of cleaning software treating it like a website cookie, thinking it is unimportant, and removing it. However, there are many other possibilities including files becoming corrupted due to disk or file handling errors by the system and major system changes.
    To take care of the problem permanently, we have to find out exactly what the source of the issue is on your computer and eliminate it (or mitigate it if removing third-party software is out of the question).

  • [GeForceFX] FX5600XT-VTDR128 Video capture problem

    I am trying to find out if anyone has been able to get the capture (WDM) driver successfully installed for MSI FX5600XT on XP/SP2.
    I tried both the MSI & NVIDIA drivers, but always get a message saying "Cannot start device code 10".
    The current MSI display driver is version 7772, and the capture driver is 4.05.
    should I try an older WDM driver ?
    Any advice will be appreciated.

    Is the WDM driver affected in any way by what display driver is installed ?
    The last WDM driver I installed is 2.13 and after the system rebooted, there were 2 devices that poped up, The WDM A/V crossbar which installed OK, and the WDM video capture(universal) which has the "Code 10" error.
    what is the A/V crossbar and do I need it ?

  • I wanted to know how to unlock my iphone, since I had to restore it and when it restarted, it appeared this message: "The SIM card que you currently have installed in this iphone is from a carrier that is not supported under the Currently actuvation polic

    I wanted to know how to unlock my iphone, since I had to restore it and when it restarted, it appeared this message: "The SIM card que you currently have installed in this iphone is from a carrier that is not supported under the Currently actuvation policy that is assigned by the server activion. this is not a hardware issue with the iPhone. Please insert another SIM card from a supported carrier or request que this iphone be unlocked by your carrier. Please contact Apple for more information. "
    I need help, I use my phone for everything enclusive to work. I appreciate if you can help. I'm from Brazil. My name and giullia.

    Did you purchase this device from Apple or an authorized reseller? It sounds as if you had a device that was jailbroken/hacked to operate on your carrier. Upon updating the iOS, it is now locked back to the original carrier the device was locked to.
    Only the carrier the device is locked to can authorize an unlock. You will need to make contact with that carrier and see if they provide unlocking services, and if they do, if you qualify for an unlock. Otherwise, you are out of luck. One that carrier can take care of the unlocking.

  • Why I see this message ''The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPad'' when I want to set up my account on iCloud?

    When I try to sign in with my Apple ID (that I use with AppStore) to iCloud on my iPad2,
    I see this message:
    ''The maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this iPad''.
    So what shall I do?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Unfortunately once all the 3 iCloud accounts have been created on your mobile device, you cannot create any more regardless of what you do. You will need to re-use one of the accounts that you have already created or create your new account on another device or computer.

    I can't get into icloud. Get this message:" the maximum number of free accounts have been activated in this iphone". thanks for your help

    Create the account on your computer or other Apple device. Once the account
    has been created elsewhere, you will be able to use it on your iPhone.

    It's a really bad idea to post your iPhone's serial number and I've asked the Hosts to remove it.
    Any one device can create only three iCloud accounts. As you have apparently already created three accounts (or if it's a used phone the previous owner did) you cannot create any more one it. This is tied to the hardware, not the account, and there is no way round it.
    You can create a new iCloud account on another iOS device or on a Mac, and then you will be able to sign into that on your iPhone.

  • Ok, this is possibly the strangest problem I have ever had...

    My ipod will not turn off. I have tried holding the play/pause button, and tried restarting it by holding play/pause and the center button, and nothing has worked. When I leave it idle it does not turn off. It still works just fine, still accepting a charge and all, so I have been able to use it, but it must stay on the charger overnight or the battery will be nearly dead by the time I wake up the next morning. Does anybody have a solution for me that does not involve restoring my ipod? The computer I have all of my music on is acting up right now so all I have is my laptop so transferring all my music will be a major pain as I have very little hdd space on this. Btw it has already been updated to the latest software before this problem arose, so an update is also not possible

    It sounds like you tried to do a Reset, but you held down the wrong buttons. Try this:
    1. Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    2. Press and hold the Menu and Select buttons until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 10 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.
    Tip: If you are having difficulty resetting your iPod, set it on a flat surface. Make sure the finger pressing the Select button is not touching any part of the click wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Menu button toward the outside of the click wheel, and not near the center.

  • Ti4800SE-VTD8X & WDM video capture problem...

    sheeesh... I did everything I know to solve the problem... I read every thread on this help forum having the word "WDM" using the search engine and also on other webpages and forums. I can see that I am not the only one having problem with the WDM drivers  
    Can anyone help me with this  ?(  :
    The WDM driver fails to load and make my system boot up time to around 45 seconds to 1 minute which is normally booting in less than 18 seconds without the WDM driver installed. In the "Device Manager", I see a nice lil " ! " on the "nVidia WDM Video Capture (Universal)" codec.
    Here is what I did to date :
    1) I had an MSI Ti4200-VTD8X on a different setup computer and had the same problem. I changed my 250 power supply to a 350 watts as I read it might solve some problem but it did not.
    2) I exchanged the Ti4200 for a brand new MSI GeForce4 Ti4800SE-VTD8X (MS-8900) and STILL have the same problem
    3) I completely change my "old" P4 1.8 to a brand new setup (see at bottom) AND STILL have the same problem.
    4) Why did I buy an nVidia product instead of ATI ?   dunno...
    5) I have tried to uninstall, reinstall, uninstall, reinstall, uninstall, reinstall... huh ?  ?(  oh yeah, the nVidia WDM drivers 1.21 and 1.22 still doesn't work. I even tried old WDM drivers as some said solved their problem. Installed 1.04, still the same problem.
    6) I have tried the WDM from MSI (was happy to see a newer version 1.27) and disaster  8o  computer crash with a nice blue screen and reset itself as soon XP loads this famous WDM driver during boot sequence. Had to start in safe mode using the last known working version... At least, that worked...
    7) The only way I can make this crappy driver to works (and that is at 50%) is this way
    a) in the device manage, I right clic the faulty codec (that XP kindly took the time to open for me to show me that this is not working...) and go to "update the driver"
    b) then I click "install from a specified location"
    c) then I click "do not search, I will chose the driver to install"
    d) then I can see "nVidia WDM Video Capture (Universal)" in the list so I click on it
    e) click "next" button
    f) XP reinstall the driver withtout the " ! " once I go back in the "Device Manager".
    The only thing with that is that it is unstable. Sometimes it might work for 1 hour, sometimes 10 minutes. What it does is it completely crash the application which is using the WDM, for instance InterVideo WinProducer. And here is the kind and gentle warning message box from XP saying : "InterVideo WinProducer has to shut down. We are sorry blah blah blah blah..."   and of course you lose any recordings you were capturing or working on...
    If I reboot the system, the codec is once again not loaded properly.
    So, can some one help me with this ???  
    Thank you !  :D

    Try and download demo version, and see if you have use for it. I would like to use it, when I want, to watch DVD on my TV.
    So now we need MSI or nVidia to make a WDM driver that works with nVidia VGA 44.03 driver.
    Thanks man !
    I have tried the TV Tool and quite frankly, I don't really like it... For the moment that is... It messed up a little the video settings like resolution and refresh rate. I have had numerous errors also saying to update to the latest version but you already told me about that.
    I have noticed something with 41.07 driver that I lost a nice feature that might interest you ! In fact, with this feature, I think you would not need the TV Tool.
    I had the option before to maxize the TV out to full screen when the DVD player started or when I watched any video format.
    I can have the Windows Media Player (using nVidia nDVD for DVD) running minimized on my main VGA monitor and get the S-Video out run full screen which was really nice. Sadly, this option looks to be nowhere to find with the Detonator 41.07 version.  :(
    I don't know if there will be a serious revision about the newest Detonator drivers so it can support our card with full features like the full screen one...
    When you fix a problem, there is a new one that come out  :O
    If you get any hint on how to complaint at MSI or nVidia, it would be great to let them know that something has changed since the v.41.07 that makes a lot of nVidia users having problems with the WDM issue.
    Thanks again, at least, I can capture some video ! But not able to watch it full screen anymore on the TV out  
    Let's keep in touch !
    See ya !
