Why does a movie or TV show stop during play and then takes you to the main ATV icon screen?

This weekend while watching a movie it stopped and went directly to the main ATV screen? Also while watching TV shows I witnessed the same issue about halfway through each. Also, when returning to the movie or TV show it acts like the first time viewing and does not give you the option to resume playing.

Same issue, just cuts out to black and then goes back to the home screen. Happened about 4 times while watching one TV show. I'm using Software version 6.0 (6646.65)

Why does my Ipod 4 Generation speakers stop working randomly and then start back up again?

I have heard that this problem has happened to alot of the 4 gen ipod users. Is there any way to complain to apple or get a refund? Becuase an ipod is suppose to play music, that's what it's good at, but if it cant even do that then no point buying the ipod really.
It's been happening the day I got it, i even updateed it but still carries on.

Hey there gillly,
It sounds like your iPod Classic is not playing back your music correctly. You should use the following article to help resolve the issue here, named:
iPod classic Troubleshooting Assistant
http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
Start by resetting your iPod, and work your way through the article as needed:
Reset
To reset your iPod:
1. Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
2. Press and hold the Menu and Center (Select) buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 10 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

Can I transfer a slide show to Apple TV and then take my Apple TV to another home and plug it into the TV and play that slideshow for those friends?

Can I transfer a slide show to Apple TV and then take my Apple TV to another home and plug it into the TV and play that slideshow for those friends?

If you mean transfer a slideshow from your computer then no. It is not storing it but rtaher streaming from the computer over your local network. The old model had an accessible hard-drive that would have allowed this.

Why does my 3rd generation iPad freeze on an app and then go to the home screen immediately?

Well, my new iPad closes the application and goes to the homes careen. This has been happening on my iPad 2 recently but then I bought the 3rd generation iPad and it does the same thing but more often, Can somebody tell me if this is normal and if it isn't can I send it back and get a new one? And if I get a new one will it do the same thing? Thank you sooo much!

If it's happening on all the apps that you've downloaded from the App Store, but not the Apple built-in apps, then try downloading any free app from the store (as that appears to reset something) and then re-try them - the free app can then be deleted.

Spinning a wheel, randomly stops and then takes you to another frame.

I would like to be able to spin a wheel in flash, this wheel has 8 sections to it split up equally, it spins for a random amount of time, 3 - 7 seconds and then stops. the section which lands on the marker is the result and will take you to a specific frame. Also i would like it when it stops to gradually slow down however this is not vital.
this code works for just rotating a wheel but i want to know how to randomly stop it and how to take it to another frame.
onClipEvent (enterFrame){
this.ang=ang+0.01;
_alpha=190*Math.sin(this.ang)+190;
_rotation++;
_xscale=260*Math.sin(this.ang)+1900;
i do not know a lot of coding, so do not use complicated words and if you could post how to do this it would help alot.
thanks

The APP application on my iPad does not function properly - any downloads requested immediately fail and send me back tot he main iPad screen. Any suggestions on to hoe to fix this? The software has been updated to iOS 5.1.1, and no furthe updates are available.

This is my boilerplate response when app downloads are stalled or in the "waiting" mode. There are a bunch of things here to try.
Tap on the "installing" icon and see if you can pause the install, then tap on it again in order to resume the install.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download and install at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and see if the install resumes.
If all else fails, download the updates or the apps in iTunes on your computer and then sync the content to your iPad.

Why does my airport base station show all green lights but doesn't connect to the internet?

I have an Airport Express Base Station that has been working beautifully up until this morning. For no apparent reason (changes in ANYTHING), I cannot connect to the internet through it. Here's the situation:
The light on the airport is solid green.
Aiport Utility shows all is well...the base station shows up, with green light, IP address, etc.
Network Diagnostics shows "your connection to the internet seems to be working correctly."
Connecting the modem directly to the computer via ethernet cable works fine...internet humming right along.
Connecting the modem to the base station doesn't work, even though all green lights and "all systems go" diagnostics.
Wireless access via iPhone and iPad not working, either, so definitely not computer-based issue.
No changes have been made to anything. I'm running 10.6.8 on a 2007 MacBook Pro.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Nancy

Hi Bob,
Thanks for responding.
Does that IP address start with 169, or something else?
The IP address starts with 10.0...
Does this mean that the iPhone and iPad can connect to the wireless network....but not get to the Internet?.....or.....does this mean that the iPhone and iPad cannot connect to the wireless network at all?
They can see and connect to the wireless network, but aren't connecting to the internet, just like my computer. Sorry for not being clear about that.
Can you look on the side of the AirPort Express to locate the model number? Hard to see, you may need a magnifying glass. Starts with an "A" followed by four numbers, as in A1264, or A1084, for example.
The model number on the Airport is A1392.
Any insights based on this info? Thanks for your help.

Why does a .mov slideshow look much darker when played with idvd

I have created a .mov slideshow from iphoto. I now want to write it to a dvd using iDVD. When setting up the various dropzones the images look great. When I play the .mov in Quicktime, the images look great. When I preview the proposed DVD, all of the images look to contrasty / dark. Why is this and how can I fix it?

Hi Klaus,
Me thinks you jest my good man.....
Again I repeat, in every other application, the images look the way they are meant to be.
Only in iDVD do they become "corrupted".
Anyone who has anything to do with digital imaging knows you should calibrate your monitors.
An industry standard calibrated environment is a must when dealing with a digital imaging environment.
iDVD is screwing up the images ad making them darker.
Quicktime isn't.
iPhoto isn't.
Photoshop isn't.
Capture One Pro isn't.
Adobe Bridge isn't.
Camera Raw isn't.
InDesign isn't.
Acrobat isn't.
I can list many more applications on both PCs and Macs that correctly display the images.
iDVD is the only one that screws them up!!!!!
Are you seriously suggesting that calibrating our monitors is the cause of iDVD displaying images incorrectly and different to all of the above mentioned software?
Me thinks you jest my good man.....
Kind regards,
Mike

Why does watching movies from iCloud fill up storage? And why do I have to reset to clean storage?

i watch movies from iCloud. some how it fills up my storage,but I can't clear it without resetting. What am I doing wrong?

If you are talking about the movies that have the cloud icon next to them, you are not actually streaming them. You are downloading them from the cloud. If you completely download the movie, then you will be able to delete them as John Galt is describing above.
This isn't made every clear by Apple, IMO. Most people assume that they are streaming, but when you tap the cloud icon, you start downloading the movie and it can't be deleted until it is fully downloaded. I have been down this road a few times myself.

HT1430 Why does my iPad shut off about every 1 minute and then comes back on?

Why does my iPad shut down every minute and then come back on ?

Try to reset your settings... Settings--general--reset (at bottom of list)--reset all settings
Try an iOS software restore

Why does my iPod make a bloo-bloo-bloop noise and then start playing random tracks from the library instead of the playlist?

This happened once before and seemed to sort itself but I was teaching my class and it kept doing it in the middle of tracks in the playlist. Should I restore and then reload everything?

That sound is either shake to shuffle or a "Your-music-is-corrupt-error".
I believe Apple has a support article on this issue. It means the iPod has encountered an error with your files. You will need to restore your iPod. If the trouble is persistent, there might be a problem with a singular file you will need correct this issue. If the problem still exists take it to an Apple store

Why does my converted PDF file show up as code and not in English?

When I convert my PDF file to word, it shows up in code vs. English. Parts are in English but most is not. Any suggestions?

Hi,
I am moving your posting at Acrobat.com Forum to ExportPDF Forum.
I will know more once I see the PDF file, but am assuming that your PDF file was scanned images(OCR could not recognize some images as correct characters) or some encoding issue how PDF was created.
Please send me your PDF file at below site so that I can review your file.

Why does 11 search have a stupid side bar window while searching instead of searching the main music list like it used to? ?

I am EXTREMELY UNHAPPY that I upgraded. SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO slow and hard to navigate! Ridiculous!

Scary, huh? Fortunately, unlike several other screwups in 11, all you need to do is just uncheck "Search Entire Library" in the Search pull down menu and it will back to normal.

Why is it taking forever for my pages to load and then if I search the rainbow wheel come up and goes on forever?

The rainbow wheel pops up and goes on and on everytime I try to type in a search or if I'm on a page and move around it, it starts up and goes on and on.

How did you get 10.6.8 on a MacBook Pro Retina?
Fix your signature please.

Does this only occur while the computer is connected to the Internet or also while it's offline?

Why is my computer slow?

While watching an iTunes movie from my Apple TV, why does my movie stop playing at the 1 hour mark? I'm assuming I have a setting causing this to happen, but I have no idea what setting needs to be changed. Can someone help me?

It's right at an hour (consistently), but the computer goes to sleep prior to that. It's as if iTunes goes to sleep. Also, it wasn't always this way. Originally, the movies played through without interruption. At some point, I guess a setting was changed, and now I only get an hour. Also. My energy settings are set to go to sleep at 10 minutes.
