PLEASE HELP ME OUT

Hello,
Please see this guide for MediaSmart TV SW. You must live in an area that has a HD digital tower nearby to pick up the digital signal.
It is possible that you are also in a building or location where there is a lot interference.
You can use this URL to detect signals and towers.
Here is the general guide for setting up the MediaSmart SW

  • Mac not detecting signal from new Belkin N1 Router

    Hi folks, my airport base station just "popped" yesterday and so I had to get a quick replacement here in Panama. Bought a Belkin N1 Router and I'm connected to it right now via ethernet so I know the modem is working fine and apparently the router is, too. I'm using the ethernet cable because my Titanium Powerbook (as well as my Toshiba notebook and iMac G5) aren't able to detect a signal from the router. I've spoken to three different Belkin people and they're pretty clueless as to why this is happening. I tried running the CD that came with the router but that isn't helping. Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Raymond

    Hey guys, I got it working just fine. Now all three machines read it. Belkin has an email support page and I sent them a message detailing my issue. The next day one of their technicians sent me an email with instructions on how to get this working. Got it set up in 3 steps! I wish the manual had these instructions but it wasn't really a manual at all; just a card with small type on it.
    FYI, here's what they told me:
    To resolve the issue please follow the steps given below for configuring the router:
    - Connect the computer to the LAN port on the router and connect the modem to the Internet/WAN port, using Ethernet cables.
    - Take a paper clip, insert the paper clip on the reset hole of the router and then hold it for 15 seconds.
    - The power light will flash and then come back ON solid, indicating that the router is being restored to factory defaults.
    - The corresponding lights on the front of the router should be lit up.
    - On the computer, check if you have an IP address in the range of 192.168.2.x
    - If not, specify a static IP address, gateway and DNS by following the steps at
    http://web.belkin.com/support/kb/kb.asp?a=2824
    - Log on to the router web interface at http://192.168.2.1
    - By default, the password is blank.
    - Click on Connection Type in the left hand column under Internet WAN heading.
    If the connection type is Dynamic (cable):
    - Click on Dynamic and then click on Next
    - Type in your “Hostname” if you’re Internet Service Provider has provided it. Else, leave it blank
    - Click on "Change WAN MAC Address".
    - Click on the button "Clone".
    - Click on Apply Changes
    ----at this point, the problem was solved----
    If the connection type is PPPOE (DSL):
    - Click on PPPOE and click on Next.
    - Enter the user name and password given by your Internet Service Provider
    - Save the settings
    - Click on the Home link at the top of the screen
    Internet Status should show Connected on the top right hand corner of the web page.
    On the wireless, associate wireless following these steps:
    -Open the wireless connection icon from the system tray
    -Click on Advanced button and click on Wireless Networks tab.
    -Remove all the networks under "Preferred Networks" and Click on `Refresh` under the Available Networks
    -Select the available network and click on Apply or Ok
    Then, check the IP address of the computer. For checking the IP address:
    - Click on start & click `Run`.
    - Type in cmd & click `ok`.
    - Type IPCONFIG and Enter. Check for IP address, subnet mask & Default Gateway.
    - The IP address should be in the range of 192.168.2.x (x=2 to 254)
    - If not, specify a static IP address, gateway and DNS by following the steps at http://web.belkin.com/support/kb/kb.asp?a=2824
    - In the command prompt type PING 192.168.2.1 & Enter. You should get replies.
    - Type, PING 4.2.2.2 & press Enter. Check if you are getting replies.
    - Try pinging yahoo by typing PING yahoo.com and Enter. You should get replies.
    - Then try connecting to internet.

  • New monitor can not detect signal from new referb pc

     Monitor is a new flat screen,  model 2310m full HD with  vga, hdmi, and dvi-d connectors and boot up CD which includes pdf manual and video drivers etc..
             PC is a referb Pavilion M9200t first time started since referb with a G-Force GT graphics card (1 gigabite) and dual DVI-D connections. No VGA or HDMI out. OS is vista ultimate that I will probably update to windows 7 if I ever get it set up. Monitor does not get a signal from new PC with DVI-D cable or a VGA cable with an adapter. Monitor works fine with my old XP PC after installing drivers  and using the vga cable. New PC has no VGA out, so I bought a VGA to DVI-D adapter thinking that it would have proper drivers for a VGA monitor with no success. I also tried new PC on my old monitor with the DVI-D adapter on the VGA cable and that didn't work either. I can't do a first run setup without a monitor and the monitor won't work without a signal.
            I bought the PC from a friend who decieded to buy a laptop instead and had never started it. He bought it from someone who was selling referbs on E-bay and messed up and accidently started the warranty period  or so they say. 
            Also when I plug the PC in the fan starts and continues running till I do a hard shutdown, that is holding start button down till the PC shuts off. If I unplug and replug the computer it starts again without pushing start button. Does anyone think it is the graphics card issue or maybe power supply, or just not booting at all?  Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.------Thanks in advance.----Larry

                Ok, thats the procedure I was talking about earlier. I did that bios default factory reset just now. First the version 6 and earlier. It didn't work so I tried version 7 and later and that didn't work. I then tried version 6 and earlier again only this time pushed F10 more rapidly and got right in right when I got to the F5 and enter portion. Then I pushed F10 again to save the change and enter again to close. The PC didn't boot up the next screen like the test said it would. So I did it all again and spent some time reading what was on the bios pages but  accidently pushed ESC as the bios menu suggested instead of enter to close out   . No boot up screen again. I did another hard shutdown and then unplugged the cord for 5 minutes and this time the PC stayed off when I plugged it back in. The bios are set to default but I cannot get it to start again in safe mode or boot up. So if the power supply is working properly, and the monitor worked in safe mode, then the video card must be good. right?
              So I'm editing from the night before, its Monday morning here in Wi. and I'm sorry to say that after leaving the PC unplugged all night that when I plugged it back in this morning, the dumb thing started again without pushing the  start button.  So the only thing doing a recovery on the bios accomplished was to prove that my the video card can run the monitor in safe mode which is a good thing I guess. Hope someone has an idea as to what else I can try.-------thanks

    The problem I've had in Mac Pro with Hauppauge's USB myTV.PVR (which also had Eskape CD - 32 Bit that ran in Leopard but not Snow) was same message in Vista U. 32Bit : this device can perform better...
    which I ignored. The message does not occur in Windows 7. I do have problems with MCE not recognizing the tuner occasionaly but prefer to use Hauppauge's WinTV 5,6,7 App. in any case.
    If you have not been to Hauppauge's site you may see something that helps including driver updates here:

  • MacAir not detecting external monitor. 'check signal cable' error

    Brand new MacAir OX 10.7.4 not detecting samsung external monitor. I keep getting 'check signal cable' error on a blank screen.

    Hi Walter,
    I'm not sure this'll fix your problem, & it's info from earlier OSX versions, but I'll toss it out...
    Safe Boot from the HD, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions...
    Trash these files...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/ByHost /com.apple.windowserver.<12digitHex#>.plist
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/ByHost/.GlobalPreferences.<12digitHex#>. plist
    There may be more than one of each of the above, then trash...
    /Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
    Reboot
    You could test it by first, depending on OS version...
    To find out if it's system wide or user specific, try this...
    Open System Preferences>Accounts, unlock the lock, click on the little plus icon, make a new admin account, log out & into the new account.
    Does it work in the new account?

    You already have a wireless router or have just bought one, or do you have an ad hoc connection from iMac to AppleTV?
    If things worked in the other location this all point to poor network performance/connectivity. It may be the connection is intermittently lost - small files transfer ok, but interruptions during longer transfers scupper the process.
    Interference from cordless phone bases or microwaves (and neighbours devices) might also cause connectivity issues.
    Signal strength bars are often not that useful, but will indicate connection to the main wireless device they connect to - so AppleTv may have a good connection to the router but a poor iMac connection to router is not displayed by AppleTV which only shows the connection to the first device in the chain.
    You could consider some home mains newtorking plugs such as those made by Devolo but they usually have to be on the same mains ring.

  • My Mac Pro (2006) with NVidia GeForce 8800 GT is not detecting a second display.  What can I do?

    My Mac Pro w/ NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT does not detect a second display from the System Preferences / Displays.  Even though I select the "Detect Displays" button, nothing happens.  I also have Bootcamp and Windows 7 in a partition on my drive.  When I operate with Windows 7, there is no problem detecting both of my displays.  However, when I operate with Windows 7, there is no sound signal sent from my sound card.  When I switch back to the OS X then I get a sound feed from the sound card, but then it will not detect more than one monitor.  I'm ready to pull out my hair.  Anyone have suggestions?

  • Hi; I updated my iTunes to the latest version (11.1.4.62), but it does not detect my iPhone 4s any more.

    Hi,
    I updated my iTunes to version 11.1.4.62, but it does not detect my iPhone 4s any more. I have tried the following ways but still did not work:
    Rebooted the computer
    Rebooted the iPhone
    plugged and unplugged the USB cable multiple times and to various USB ports
    Uninstalled and installed the i-Tunes
    Signed out the iTunes and signed in again
    my USB cable and ports are all ok
    my ios version on iPhone is : 7.4.4
    my laptop os is windows 8.1 and my processor is: Intel Core i7-3610QM @ 2.30 GHz
    I appreciate your help.

    I find this on another post and tried it.  It WORKED.  I had to modify to fit my situation but give it a try.  Good luck.
    Go to Windows 8.1 Control Panel.
    Go to Hardware and Sound; Devices and Printers; Device Manager; Portable Devices (look for Apple IPad)
    Right-click, then select properties on the menu list.
    Under the "Driver" tab menu, confirm the update driver button is not greyed out.  If the update driver button is grey and unselectable, you need to select and click "Change Settings" button located near the lower left corner.
    Now you can click the "Driver" tab menu near the top, so you can see the "Update Driver" button.
    Select "Update Driver".
    Select and click "Browse my computer for driver software".
    For Windows 8.1 64 bit, it should be located in the folder: C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support\Drivers. 
    Click Next, and let the driver re-install.
    iTunes  11.1.4.62 should open automatically if your iphone is connected already.

  • Thunderbolt to HDMI does not detect TV on Yosemite

    I am having the same problem as a lot of people with Yosemite and and connecting to a TV/external monitor via thunderbolt to HDMI but have found a sort of a solution or at least a bit more info that might lead to someone having a eureka moment. I have a Mac Book Pro, my partner a Mac Book Air. I bought a thunderbolt to HDMI cable from eBay so my partner could plug her Air into the TV. When the cable arrived, it would not detect our LG TV from either computer. So a bit of playing around and this is what I found.
    I plugged the cable from my MBP direct to the HDMI port on the TV and nothing, no signal detected.
    I also tried from the MBP to the HDMI port on the amplifier of the surround sound system and again nothing.
    However, if I plug the cable from my MBP directly to the TV HDMI and select that corresponding HDMI port on the TV initially still nothing. But if I then plug a normal hdmi-to-hdmi cable from my amplifier to the Mac Pro's HDMI port, suddenly the thunderbolt cable works and the Display Preferences sees the LGTV. I checked that the correct hdmi port was selected on the TV for the direct connection and I could even turn off my amplifier to make sure that I was not seeing the wrong signal and it still worked as long as the hdmi-to-hdmi was still connected at both ends. However, if I then unplug the HDMI cable from MBP or the amp, the thunderbolt port stops working as well and the TV displays "no signal detected".
    It seems that there needs to be either a base signal or an earthing through the MacBook Pro's HDMI port for it to switch into an external monitor mode that will detect a thunderbolt to HDMI connection. This is sort of fine for my MBP as I had nothing working before but it seems a bit pointless having the HDMI cable plugged in as well as I might as well just use this in the first place. However, as my partner's Air only has a thunderbolt port and no HDMI port it still doesn't work with her MAC.
    Hopefully someone will see this and have a brainwave.

    A bit more playing around and I found that as above with the thunderbolt to HDMI plugged into the TV and a hdmi-to-hdmi plugged into the amp, with the amp turned off, I could get the thunderbolt to HDMI working. When I then went to the Display in System Preferences and the Arrangement pane, it was showing three displays, one for the MBP screen, one for the LG TV and one for the amp HDMI port (even though it was turned off). When I then unplugged the HDMI cable from the MBP the arrangement screen was no longer available as it only recognised the MBP screen. This was the same regardless of whether I was mirroring the displayed or had them as three separate displays.

  • My iphone 4s is no longer detecting wifi since the ISO8 updates came out. I've restarted, rest the networks, reset the phone back to factory settings, and even tried the freezer trick. It is STILL not detecting ANY wifi networks. HELP!!!

    My iphone 4s is no longer detecting wifi since the IOS8 updates came out. I've restarted, rest the networks, reset the phone back to factory settings, and even tried the freezer trick. It is STILL not detecting ANY wifi networks. HELP!!! I cannot afford to go over my data and I use wifi at home and work... I believe the updates have caused the issue, because it was working fine before the second update released (I hadn't put the first one one until I noticed it had stopped working, and by then the second IOS8 version had came out). They need to do a third update to fix this issue.

    If it's grayed out:
    Reset Network Settings - if that doesn't fix it, then Backup and Restore AS A NEW DEVICE.
    If it's still grayed out, unfortunately that means your Wi-Fi antenna quit, and it needs service.
