When we are watching something on Apple TV and our Macbook Pro turns on or off the Apple TV goes back to the menu and stops whatever is currently playing. Any idea how to stop this?
Any ideas?
Thanks, but there has to be someway through ITunes or something to make this not happen. It used to not do this so something with an update or something must have changed a setting somewhere. Anyone else have any ideas?

Scanning in both HP Officejet 7210 and Samsung printer - the document scans but no file is generated - any ideas how to fix this? (It worked fine before installing Mavericks)
PS: forgot to mention: if your printer is on your wifi network, you'll have to enter your wifi password on the printer to connect it to the network before Printers & Scanners will see it.
Sometimes a reset of the wifi system is needed too. A full set of directions would be:
Try:
uninstall all printer manufacturer apps and "utilities"
go to System Preferences > Printers & Scanners > Print
control-click on your printer in the column on the left
select "Reset Printing System..." and "reset" in the dialog that follows
do a factory reset on your printer. You'll have to consult the printer manual for how.
power down everything: modem, router, computer, and printer
power up each item in turn in the same order: modem, router, computer, and printer. Let each power up completely before moving on to the next
enter your wifi password in your printer so it can connect to the network
go back to printers & scanners and it should see your printer and download a driver for it from Apple
resist the temptation to install any printer manufacturer apps in the future. -
When launching Illustrator on Mac OSX 10.9 I get an error that the program is no longer supported on PowerPC. I tried moving the plug-ins to a different folder as the Adobe site suggested but no luck. Any ideas how to get this launched again? Same issue for Photoshop and InDesign
You will need to uninstall, run the Cleaner tool and reinstall you adobe applications. Adobe apps don't take kindly to inplace updates of the OS on Macs.

People have posted a number of issues recently with HP printers and the TC.
Do the normal stuff.
1. Wireless name in the TC by default is not SMB compatible.. make it short no spaces pure alphanumeric.
2. Lock the channel.. the TC on auto can go crazy.. fix it to 1, 6, or 11 in turn.
3. Test without security.. if it will not join without security.. you can be pretty sure it never will join with.
4. If you get nowhere.. highly probable.. lock the wireless mode to a/n - b/g
This is reducing 2.4ghz to G compatibility. Much more likely to work than N.
If after all this you have started having ticks in your cheeks and approaching nevous breakdown levels.. give up.. the TC is not 100% compatible with the windows world.. and ALL HP belong to the windows world.
The solution is simple.. a cheap wireless router.. not apple.. your average garden day, netgear, dlink, even a belkin.. although that is the bottom of the barrel.. in wan bypass. ie fix the IP to same range as the TC.. turn off dhpc.. and plug LAN TC to LAN wireless router. Setup the wireless on this.. fixed channel.. G wireless will be fine.. suitable network name and security.. The HP printer will then be available to the network.. and you didn't even have to slit your wrists. -

My 2006 - 2008 Mac Pro running Lion will not play HDV 1080i60 footage in FCP 7. When I open the sequence settings, all HDV codecs are hdv1, hdv2, hdv3, and so forth. However, when I open the project on my other Mac Pro running Snow Leopard and FCP 6, the footage works fine as it does on my newer Imac running Mavericks and FCP 7. I have tried a Quicktime update on the Mac Pro that the footage doesn't work on but it says that I already have the newest version of Quicktime installed. I have also tried reinstalling the Final Cut Pro Studio twice, still no fix. I'm completely out of solutions and need to be able to edit HDV footage on this machine. Any help would be great. Thanks.
there was a recent software update that seemed to screw HDV up. Do some searching here over the last month or 2 and you'll find a bunch of posts and some possible solutions.
Worst case scenario, do as Shane suggests. But might I suggest you take a look at the user tips section of the forum. there are some great tips on how to prevent these sorts of problems by cloning your startup drive, etc. -
One song will play perfectly fine, but then when it switches songs it seems like it loads and then continues to load and won't play the next song! I turn home sharing on and off in itunes, and it will play a song and then the loading process repeats itself
If your country's iTunes Store allows you to redownload purchased tracks, I'd delete your current copies of the dodgy tracks and try redownloading fresh copies. For instructions, see the following document:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
Otherwise, I'd report the problem to the iTunes Store.
Log in to the Store. Click on "Account" in your Quick Links. When you're in your Account information screen, go down to Purchase History and click "See all".
Find the items that are not playing properly. If you can't see "Report a Problem" next to the items, click the "Report a problem" button. Now click the "Report a Problem" links next to the items. -
My ITunes store background is all black. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the newest version and it's still all black. Anyone have any ideas?
With that one, perhaps try Drgoo's suggestion from the following post:

help ... after dowloading OS5 my new iPad 2 will not sync with my PC. the message is "USB not recognised" ... any ideas how to fix this?
I had same problem. By chance, I found a "work-around".
On a whim, I tried plugging the USB cable direct into the PC (its an old 'tower' model that sits under the desk) instead of into the port on the monitor. The PC suddenly recognised the iPad.
Why this makes any difference is a total mystery. But worth trying to see if it helps in your case. -
Several days ago some of the links in my Apple Mail messages stopped working. Specifically, the links going to some variation of "response beacon" don't work. All I see is a blank screen. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?

My touchscreen stopped responding to my finger and I can't unlock the screen...any idea how to remedy this problem?
Have you tried a soft-reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
