Unable to pause and/or rewind live TV

Why can't we rewind/pause live TV any longer? This just started late last week. We get a message that states "Unable to rewind live TV at this time. Please try again." This has been going on for nearly a week now. Thoughts on how to fix this? Thanks

There is a very short period of time when starting a new channel that it will not work. But, you are talking later, after it is available.
If this is on other than the actual DVR - Try a whole house reboot to synch everything. Pull power on all boxes.
Restart RG - wait for all green
Restart DVR - wait for viewing.
Restart all others.
If it is happening on the DVR , do just the DVR.
After that you may need a new DVR.

Unable to pause/rewind live TV

Can anyone help? Since the last software update I can't pause or rewind live TV. Its OK on the recorded one. Any clues?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

There is a wee bug with the current software which means if you take the Try Again option the box forgets how to do trick play. The workround is always to take the Recorded TV option and use the exit key on the remote to get rid of the recordings screen. If you've already used Try Again your ability to use trick play will return after the next attempted or successful channel change provided you don't use Try Again again. No need to reboot in this case.

Anyone else haveing trouble pausing and rewinding live TV???

This is very frustrating, seems to be HD more than anything, you hit pause and 30 seconds later it pauses then try to rewind and it takes a minute to rewind about 10 seconds. I'm not new to this, there is a decent buffer when I try this and I have reset the receiver, to no avail. this has been an ongoing problem for a while now and is very disappointing especially during NFL playoffs and especially since Verizon is charging us money to do just this. Verizon, don’t advertise being able to pause and rewind Live TV when we cant and don’t charge us for it, THIS NEEDS TO GET FIXED!!!

the pause and rw functions work fine. If you are having a problem with it, call tech support. Think about it, if there were problems with the funtions, Verizon would not be able to rent DVR's. While the DVR's do have some problems, the storage is too small, there are issues with the HDMI cables, the guide is frequently wrong, and the multiroom functions can be a bit flaky but the basic functions work normally.
Before calling tech support you can try this...
go to menu--->settings--->system information
when on the system information screen type these codes....
8888          this will flush crash logs that may be filling up the memory
2617            this will clear the nvmem
2601            this will reboot the stb
There are other codes but I've found that whenever my stb starts acting up, these 3 in this order will fix the issue. cant hurt to try.

I would like to know if there is such an app that allows my iPhone to act as a remote for my iPad ie if I'm recording something on my iPad I can use my iPhone to press record/play/pause/forward or rewind my iPad via my iPhone

As the King says, if your friends wifi router was relatively new, it likely has not been picked up by Apple's location based information database system and thus there is no location information associated with it. So your iPad had no way of getting its location.
The wifi location databases are traditionally updated by wardriving - literally companies employ people to drive around sniffing out active wifi signals and associating an approximate location to it. Some companies also have web sites to submit that information if owners wish to (Apple does not seem to have one though), and the various companies with wifi location databases buy and sell their information. Bottom line is though, it can take weeks, months or sometimes even longer for a residential router to get picked up - depends on where you live (more rural, likely the longer time it takes).
When I moved from VA to NC it took up to 6 months for mine to reflect my new location (I checked it once the week I moved in, and then periodically thereafter, and it finally was getting it right after about 6 months) and I live in a pretty densley populated area (triangle NC).

Unable to view pdf created in Live Cycle Designer ES2-initially thought to be a user/OS issue

Unable to view pdf created in Live Cycle Designer ES2. I initially thought this was a user / OS issue when I created a document for someone who is new to a MAC laptop. She could not view the document through email. Unfortunately, I began seeing the same error in my own document folders when searching for another document showing as icons instead of a list. I can open the file without a problem although I see the error she sees only while viewing the icons in my folder. I am using a Windows 7 PC. Now, I also know that if the document is downloaded, it can be viewed.
Other notes:
If trying to access the form via the internet, the same error is seen through Chrome, Firefox, and Mozilla but NOT through IE
Everyone seems to have the latest or a very recent READER
The form is compatible with Reader versions 7 and up
Again, downloading from the internet to the computer appears to allow the file to open properly
Document cannot be viewed on the Galaxy Tab 2 via Chrome or the pre-installed Internet Browser, nor can it be viewed through the Reader after download to tablet. I did not try on an Apple iPad.
All parties involved are up-to-date with virus protection.
Below is a link to the exact message received when trying to open the document.

You're on to something KJ! Yes the form was created in LiveCycle Designer ES2 which came bundled with my Adobe X Pro. I began creating a new form yesterday and found that I could not preview the form, rendering this same "error" instead. I ran a repair on my Adobe and at first it seemed to fix the issue but after making some changes to the form I tried to preview again and couldn't. Here is what I get when I try to preview my forms in Designer ES2:
When I click the OK button, it then gives me that single static page as mentioned above in previous posts.
I searched Adobe yesterday trying to figure out how I could repair the LiveCycle Designer or if there was some sort of patch that I haven't gotten but was not able to find anything.
(Sorry for the delay in response, I've been on vacation.)

How can I get my audio on page 2 to pause and start on other pages?

Hi!
I have put an audio file in my InDesign ebook on page 2 and would like to get it to pause and then start again from where it stopped on different pages without it starting all over.
My book is an interactive pdf right now (until I can figure out how to successfully get it in the ePub format. Yes, I'm new at this! )
PLEASE can someone help me with this?
Thanks!!
TJ

Hey Jstugelmeyer,
First, I would go through these three steps:
Restart your device.
Update to the latest iOS Software.
If you are trying to send a message to multiple recipients and you type in each contact manually instead of using the contacts list, make sure you tap return instead of space to separate each one.
Then, if you still can't send or receive MMS messages:
To send and receive MMS messages on your iPhone, verify that your wireless carrier supports MMS2.
Ensure that MMS Messaging is turned on in Settings > Messages.
Verify that your phone is able to access cellular data.
Some carriers allow you to edit your APN (Access Point Name), which may prevent MMS from working.
If you are roaming outside your calling area, make sure you have Data Roaming turned on in Settings > General > Cellular to send or receive MMS content.
While on a phone call, you will be unable to send or receive MMS messages when using an EDGE, GPRS, or any CDMA cellular data network. After the phone call ends, you will receive any incoming messages. If you tried to send an MMS message, you may need to send it again.
If the issue persists and your wireless carrier has confirmed that your wireless account is provisioned2 for MMS, restore the iPhone.

My U-Verse RG keeps pausing and resetting on its own...

I've only had U-Verse for about 3 weeks now, and since it was installed the RG regularly pauses or freezes during live TV, on demand programs, and DVR recordings. Sometimes it will unfreeze quickly (less than 30 seconds), which isn't a huge deal but is annoying. Many times, however, it will reset entirely. Again, this wouldn't be a huge deal (though very inconvenient) if it reset quickly. But there are times when the cable will stay out for 30 minutes at a time. I can do a power cycle and get it back up and running if it won't reset on its own, but this isn't something I anticipated having to do a few times a week. What's really weird is that sometimes the main TV (the one in our living room that is directly connected to the RG) will be frozen while the bedroom TV (connected through wifi) works perfectly fine. The internet is also working perfectly when these issues happen. Does anyone have any idea why this keeps happening? I've seen a LOT of posts about U-Verse doing this, and I certainly wouldn't have signed a year long contract if I'd known this was a recurring issue for U-Verse users. My fiance's parents have U-Verse and we've never seen this sort of thing happen on their TV. :-/ Any help would be appreciated!

How do I do that? Is it different than doing a standard power cycle?
Pull the plug on the DVR and STBs.
Pull the power plug on the RG and wait 10-15 secs.
Plug the RG back in and wait for all lights to come back on.
Plug in the DVR next. Wait for it to become active and then plug in any STBs, one at a time.
Rebooting will fix many, but not all, issues.

N91 new firmware, unable to fast forward or rewind

I just upgraded my Nokia N91 to the new 2.00.052 firmware and run into a problem. After the upgrade, I can no longer fast forward, rewind or pause tracks encoded in eAAC+ format. If I do attempt to do any of the above actions, the song pauses and just won't unpause. However, the problem doesn't occur with songs encoded in mp3 format.
I have tried formatting the hard drive and erasing the phone memory and updating the firmware again, but to no avail. I have been using the latest versions of PC Suite and Nokia Software updater.
This is pretty annoying, as these are fundemental operations that one might want to do when playing a song. And I love the eAAC+ format, don't want to go back to mp3.
Does anyone have any suggestions at all?
Cheers

Well, I don't use eAAC+ songs that much, but I can confirm that I have the same problem
It only plays the song from the begining.
640K Should be enough for everybody

Unable to pause App update

Why am I unable to pause my app updates? Recently I got an opportunity to update a few apps when I was connected to a wifi network (since two of them were over 50MB), but they were never able to download. I decided to cancel them since I figured they were slowing certain things down, but I found out I couldn't, so I decided instead to pause them and wait until I was connected to wifi again, but when I tap them to pause the update, it was unresponsive. It just said "Waiting...". I restarted my iPhone and then tried to pause them again, nothing happened. What should I do?

Same problem here as well. Typically happening when connected to a bluetooth player in the car; sometimes even shutting down the phone won't cut it and it inevitably becomes a waiting game. The music app unfreezes after about 3 minutes, but it's happening with more frequency. Any advice on whether this is systemic or something wrong with my phone would be appreciated!

ITunes pauses and restarts

While playing a song iTunes often pauses the song for a split second and then stars again with no intervention from me, it's very weird, I've tried restarting the imac, repairing disk permissions both to no avail. It's driving me nuts, please help or post here if you have the same problem.
My music is stored on an external USB drive
It happens randomly, when I hear a pause I can rewind the track and it doesn't pause in the same position I have tried playing the music on my ps3 just to check it wasn't a problem with the song files, it isn't they all play fine.
I think this started to happen after the 10.5.7 update or the itunes 8.1.1 update. I can't pinpoint it to either one, before the updates all was hunky dory.

Check where your library is located. If you have a shared library between multiple user on your iMac and/or your iTune library is in a shared or public folder, this may happen due to this. Many use an external drive or wireless HDD to access and playback their songs via multiple desktops or laptops, they might be facing this problem as well.
The solution could be, to have entire library on the main music folder on each user. Pros: it will not pause often and will play flawlessly. Cons: if copied library on each user, it may use lot space on hard drive.
Unless someone have better idea.
Hope this helps.

DTS connect and and Dolby Digital Live Authorization

Hello forums,
I recently purchased a X-Fi Titanium Fatal1ty Pro, but i have been unable to use the Dolby Digital Live and The DTS connect, when ever i click to activate them a message comes up in brackets saying "Licence is invalid". I never got a prompt to put in my code, and i don't have the application to do so. Is there anyway to do it online because I believe this is the root of the problem. I have re installed the drivers and all the creative applications but still no luck.
I need this application to properly work my speakers please help.

2 months, no reply. Bumping in hopes for one

Flash Player keeps pausing and buffering

I've never really had this problem before but today whenever I've tried to watch flash videos, it keeps pausing and buffering every few seconds. This seems to be a problem for me on any website except YouTube (YouTube still works fine). I've tried disabling hardware acceleration but that made no difference. I have a high speed cable modem so I don't see how it could have anything to do with my connection speed.
My operating system is Mac OS 10.5.8. My web browser is Firefox version 3.6.13, I also tried using Safari and was experiencing the same problem. The flash player version I'm using is MAC 10,2,152,26. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks a million.

o disable Protected Mode, add the following line to your mms.cfg file located in:
Windows 32bit: C:\windows\system32\macromed\flash
Windows 64bit: C:\windows\syswow64\macromed\flash
ProtectedMode=0
If the mms.cfg file does not exist, create one using any standard text editor (e.g.. notepad)
Depending on your operating system, you might need to first save the mms.cfg file to a writable location (such as your documents or desktop folder) and then copy the file into the destination folder using Windows Explorer.
To re-enable Protected Mode, simply remove the line from the mms.cfg file.
