Trouble getting TV to start

I have had FIOS for the same tv for several years with no problems. Starting a month ago, I have had problems getting the tv to start. Sometimes it starts when I hit the power button. Sometimes I need to hit the power button 5 times to get it to start. Most of the time it starts after 20 attempts and 15 minutes. Restarting the STB does not always help. I received a new STB and it did not help. I bought a new HDMI cord and it does not help. It seems that something is wrong getting the connection to 'ping' or getting the handshake going. Once I get past that point, everything is OK with the tv.
thanks in advance

sounds like the tv is turning on but the hdmi is not catching.  SO try two things
set top box auto correct.
menu>customer support>in home agent > set top box auto correct 
AND if that doesn't work, test another type of cable between the tv and the set top box.  try a component cable, RCA cable or coax cable between the set top box and the tv.  If those turn on flawlessly and the hdmi does not, then you know it's a problem with the hdmi port on the tv, the cable or HDMI in general.  your work around is going component cables (they are HD) between the set top and the tv.   The hdmi might be bad at that point.  you've tried multiple set top boxes, so it would not be the hdmi from the sett top box, it would be the hdmi in your TV.

  • Trouble getting iCal Server Started

    I've got a fully qualified DNS and reverse DNS entry for the Second IP on an OS 10.5 server; 192.168.1.251 setup for ical.domainname.com.
    I've got a site set up ical.domainname.com at port 8008.
    I've got the iCal server in Server Admin set to ical.domainname.com http port 80008.
    When I click Start iCal I get the error message: "No virtual host found for iCal service".
    What am I doing wrong?
    HELP! Thanks...

    I'm stuck with a similar issue and please don't shout at me if it has already been explained above because I didn't understand some of the posts!
    We have a small workgroup (only 5 users) and I have just upgraded from Tiger to Leopard Server. The upgrade appears to have considered our setup to be 'advanced' so I do not have access to the Server prefs app and must continue to use Server Admin/WGM. The server runs as an Open Directory Master and also provides AFP, mail & webmail, DNS & firewall services.
    I cannot get iCal Server to start. I just get the message 'No virtual host found for iCal Service'. I looked at the previous posts but they seem to relate to an OD server running on 10.4 on a different computer but all my services are on the same server, running Leopard.
    Can anyone help?
    TIA

  • Have trouble getting it to start up

    When I click on the Icon the program shows up in the process tree under Task manager, but the window does nor open up.

    Presumably it is running tiger 10.4.11?
    It may be able to run Leopard 10.5:

    But that is as far as the old PPC Macs can go, and Leopard can cost up to $200 on Amazon.

    I have been having trouble getting my email on my iPad2.
    It started when I brought it to the US on vacation (I live in London and my email provider is Virgin Media). It worked once since I returned, but that is it.
    I can send emails, but can't get them.
    Any ideas, people?

    Hi Kharels
    Just posted this reply to 2 others with same sort of question:
    I have the same issue as i have my own email address and only want to use.
    There are two ways around this annoying problem. The first is to set up your own domain email account alongside your iCloud one, and when you go to send each email tap on From and you get a choice of emails addresses to reply from... ie your own domain or the iCloud one.  This is tedious though.
    The other is to set up your iCloud email as normal, then create a new one altogether. Choose 'Other' when creating this new account. Then put for the incoming server mail.me.com, along with your user name and password. For the outgoing server put the server you want to use - ie your own domain one. This is therefore a hybrid account and does work.
    Now switch off the email for iCloud (leaving on Calendar, Address Book etc). Switch on the email for your hybrid account (which of course is iCloud incoming as well).
    Providing you have directed your own domain email address to your me.com one, you will find the iPhone should behave itself and you can use the folders etc and these will synch with your Mac ok.
    Hope this work for you - let us know.

    HI,
    The Apple IDs from @mac.com and @me.com (Older MobileMe and more recent iCloud Names) are also Valid AIM Screen names.
    Any other sort of Apple ID is not a Valid AIM Name.
    A Google ID that is associated with Google Mail Account (And has "Talk" enable on your Google Settings) can be used in iChat as  Jabber Name/ID.  (Google Run  Jabber server).
    Jabber and AIM are different IM Services and it is not easy or straight forward to add Buddies from one Service to the Buddy List of another.  (As A Starting point consider it "impossible")
    iChat 4 and 5 have links to the registration page of @Mac.com here with a "Get an iChat Account" button in the add (Account) screen  (You select @mac.com or MobileMe and then press the Button - Choosing AIM and then pressing the button used to lead to the AIM registration page but AIM moved their page).
    Apple IDs can be any valid email (or an @mac.com or iCloud registration)
    Therefore you could make a Google ID into an Apple ID.
    However this will not be a valid AIM Screen Name the way @mac.com or MobileMe/iCloud ones are.

  • I am having trouble getting my My Mac Book Pro 15" Retina to wake up with an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse while Docked in a Hengedock vertical docking station.

    I am having trouble getting my My Mac Book Pro 15" Retina to wake up with an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse while Docked in a Hengedock vertical docking station. The Keyboard and mouse work great with the laptop lid open but when closed in the docking station the bluetooth signal does not seem to transmit.  Is there a setting that can be changed to allow an Bluetooth keyboard and mouse to wake the computer while docked?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • How do I get a clean start for catalog to start all over again?

    Running PSE5 on Win XP w/SP3
    I have not been able to get any information about how to recover a catalog from files that have been copied as a backup, so it looks like I'm forced to start all over again.  There are about 17000 images in the C: drive.  The images all seem to be OK.  A few days ago there was a properly operating catalog file (and all the others) there, too.
    Since then, I have tried to learn how to make the former catalog file operative, but no luck.  Since then, I have read that just uninstalling and reinstalling PSE5 will do nothing to give me a clean start - that is, all the old (now problematical) catalog file trouble will still be there.
    To start all over again seems like such a waste of time, since I have copies of all the catalog files as they were properly operating in March, but it seems that something important is missing and none of this stuff is useful in any way.  I'm not the PSE5 user, so I didn't know about the external catalog backup that can be done from within PSE5 - so the possibility to use that technique does not exist.  All I have is a straight copy of everything in the Documents and Settings.. ...Application Data\Adobe folder.  I've tried replacing the whole Adobe folder with the backup files, starting PSE5 and looking at the catalog, but that didn't work either. I just get the same old empty catalog.
    So, the 'start all over' option seems like the only way out.  Anyone who has lost the catalog knows how much work is in the catalog, so any help with either making the old catalog file work through reconstruction somehow, or starting all over again, will be very helpful.  Someday, I'd like to learn how this happened.  Until then I'll be backing up the catalog file from within PSE5 to an external location...  Everytime there's a new entry in the catalog information.  That method seems simple enough that even I could do it.
    Thanks,
    Al

    I tried to open the resident 'My Catalog.psa' file.  PSE5 dutifully did that and the catalog information, such as tags and other information that would normally be present when looking at the Organizer is blank, as if nothing has ever been entered in the catalog.
    The 'My Catalog.psa' file is about 600K (according to windows explorer) and resides in the 'Catalogs' folder.  Also there are:
    My Catalog-2.psa  about 3252K
    My Catalog-2.psa about 5380K
    In the folder: 'Catalog Folders' were the folders:
    My Catalog
    My Catalog-1
    In the folder My Catalog are the files:
      backupCt.dat  1K
      collstatus.dat  1K
      tagstatus.dat  1K
      thumb.5.cache  10K
    In the folder My Catalog-1 is the file:
      tn.4.cache  32394 K
    Above I say 'In the folder, Catalog Folders, were the folders My Catalog and My Catalog-1' because last night when shutting down, I didn't know what was in those folders.  I was too tired to check.
    I did copy everything that was in the Adobe folder and all associated sub folders, including the folders above, to an SD flash card before I started to do anything else.  Becasue of this, I should be able to get back to the way it was before I started to do anything, then I opened the catalog file My Catalog-1.psa.  It said that it was made from an earlier version, asked to convert it and contained the 2002 to 2004 catalog information.  To the best of my knowledge, those photos were never entered in PSE5, and probably were from an earlier version of PS Album. 
    So, where is the information that was once in the PSE5 catalog?  Which files should contain that information?  Why can't the files simply be copied from the backup copies back on to the C:\ drive in the proper folders and then upon starting PSE5 see at least the catalog that was present when the copies of the files in the folders above were made?  What dumb mistakes could have been made to overwrite the information in the catalog and make the catalog appear empty?  If I don't learn this, I'll not be able to prevent it from happening again.
    I'm not on the machine with the trouble at the moment, and since it is not my machine, I sometimes have trouble getting to it during normal waking hours.  I don't know the exact clicks and keystrokes that got the catalog from its normal function to appearing and functioning as if it is empty..
    What exactly are the symptoms of "PSE5 doesn't like..."?  The catalog appears and functions as if it is empty - as if nothing ever has been or ever was entered into it.  PSE5 Organizer is operating normally as far as I can tell.  I cannot seem to locate the former catalog information and it has not loaded the former catalog file information.  A new test catalog was made and it opens and shows the thumbnails of its four images.  I hope that the test catalog I made didn't overwrite anything that would prevent going back to the original catalog information.  The copies of the files can be restored as they were a few months ago, though, because there is a copy of them on an SD card.
    Thanks,
    Al

  • New to CS6 Dreamweaver, creating a "Responsive Website" having trouble getting fluid divs to behave

    Trying to create a "Responsive Website" and I'm having trouble getting my fluid divs that I create to "break" their link from the "Boilerplate" .
    I'm using a "Fluid Grid layout Div" to create a section that has a transparent background of rgba(0,0,0,0.3) and that's perfect, then I add two more "Fluid Grid layout Div's" inside the transparent one to create a 2-column part in the section and that's where the trouble is.
    None of the "formatting" I've set for the text in my ID's or Classes are being used - just reverts to what's in the "Boilerplate" i.e. "p,h2,h3" and I can't get it to "break" it's link the "Boilerplate" so I can apply my formatting.
    I have been able to select my formatting at times but it is ignored and uses what's in the "Boilerplate".
    Kept trying different ways to get it to work and now I've so many of both the ID's and Class's that their not all showing up as an option to be able select them.
    I'm missing something basic and after two days it still escapes me.
    Please somebody, tell me what I'm missing.

    FluidGrid Layouts are not easy to learn.  You need a good grasp of fundamental RWD concepts including CSS Media Queries.  Keep your layout simple and be patient.  The first time I used FGLayouts, I had to start over 9 times before I got acceptable results.

    Best advice for beginners:
    Build Mobile Layout first.  Everything else is based on this primary layout.  Then build Tablet layout and finally Desktop.  Don't worry about content.  Just build the layout & save often during development.
    DO NOT TAMPER with the boilerplate.css or FGLayout.css code.  Even experts can break the layout in a hurry.  Use a separate external style sheet for content and typography styles.
    If you're using CS6 ver 12.0, you cannot nest divs inside other divs.  Everything must be inside the .gridContainer like this:
    <body>
        <div class="gridContainer">
              <div> </div>
              <div> </div>
              <div> </div>
