XM Radio Online Doesn't Connect

Does anyone know how to get XM Radio to work within Safari? The Windows Media Player plug-in tries to connect but never does. I tried the Flip4Mac plug-in and got the same non-result. Essentially the XM Widget behaves the same except that it occasionally connects after a really long wait and other times generates error messages.
The AOL radio player actually does work but does not offer all of the XM channels.
An iTunes solution would be the ultimate right way to go but I haven't seen any way to do that either.
Quick Silver Mac OS X (10.4.1)

I do not believe XM is fully compatible with Safari.
The XM Radio Online portion of the site is compatible. The rest of the site is horrible for Macs though.
Are you getting a -2048 error message with Flip4Mac (I believe that's the error number)? Also, make sure you're using the latest version of the OS as well as the latest version of Flip4Mac. Both work fine for me.
Also, you might want to try my application, ThisWeekOnXM which eliminates the need to open Safari for listening to XM Radio Online.
As per Apple's TOS, I won't receive any benefit from you downloading my application unless you choose to donate, which is entirely in your hands.

55" VL900A doesn't connect to online TV services

Having just bought a 55" VL900A I'm quite surprised to find that it doesn't connect to any of the "catch-up" online TV services, here in Australia. Virtually every other brand of smart TV sold here, even the cheap Soniqs, will at least connect to ABC iView, if not more of the available catch-ups.
I hope someone from Toshiba can tell us that iView support is coming? (hopefully along with SBS, Fix-TV and Plus7) As I understand it the ABC does not charge a licence fee to provide a client in your product.
Going forward this is going to be a big deal-breaker for many new customers who might be weighing up a Toshiba versus another brand.

Im not from Australia but Im wondering you didnt contact your local dealer and pick up info about that. Usually local dealer should know how it works. I think they test products that they offer in their shops.
Have you maybe contacted Toshiba service provider in AU? Try it. Ask them what is wrong there.

ITunes doesn't connect to the store (no error message, just blank page)

Hi everyone! I'm having troubles with my iTunes for windows XP. It doesn't connect to the music store, it doesn't display any error message and the loading bar stops to a half and then iTunes remains with the blank page, going no further. When I run the diagnostics, it gives me all green dots. So I really don't know what the trouble is... I can only access my accout information and radio stations, nothing more. Can someone help me out please? Thank you very much!

My Macbook sometimes doesn't connect to my Wireless N network

I had my topcase replaced by apple a few weeks ago. Since then I've noticed my macbook SOMETIMES doesn't connect to my wireless N network (from my AEBS running on 5.8ghz frequency).
It's strange because most of the time it finds the network fine. But sometimes when i open the macbook up (awakes from sleep) it doesn't see the network (it's not available from the list of available networks). If i try to connect manually to the network when this happens i get a "connection timeout" message. If i turn off my airport connection off and then on with the macbook (thru the menu bar) it sometimes finds the N network. Sometimes that doesn't work, and i have to put the macbook to sleep and hope it finds the network when it awakes. Sometimes that solves the problem, but i may have to try it 3 or 4 times.
If i switch my AEBS to a mixed signal (supporting G) i don't have these problems, but i shouldn't have to do that, and i'm sacrificing wireless speed if i do that. I have a stable connection when it DOES find the network (it won't drop out and will be at full strength) but as soon as i put it to sleep i run the risk it may not find the network when it awakes.
As i said before i didn't notice this problem before I sent in the macbook to have the topcase repaired - is it possible the airport card was damaged? I was only running a N wireless network a week prior to submitting the macbook for repair, so i'm not positive that's it either.

There's a reason why some are less than energetic in answering your question: the "pinwheel of death" could mean a lot of things. To start off, you will need to use various utilities to coax your MBP into functionality:
1. Perform a Permisions Repair, and also Repair your disk on Disk Utilities. If this doesn't work, proceed to the next step.
2. Using a free utility like Onyx, clean your caches.
3. Using the free Kext Wizard, make sure your files are consistent and accurate.
4. Use OpenDNS by connecting to this link:

OpenDNS is a simple way of making your online experience faster and easier.
If these steps were successful, take the time to post here; others will profit from your experience. If you still don't have the answer, post...and we'll find the solution!

XM Radio Online

I have a new Mac and have tried to use my XM Radio online. The problem seems to be the Flip4Mac plug in which I uninstalled and reinstalled. I worked with Mozilla tech who tried the plug in on his Mac and his did not work either. Anyone else having this issue, and is there a work around?

Hey iBradly,
Just to save you some time, I tried opening the page with the latest Firefox Beta (which gave me the raw XML code of the site), Camino 0.8 (which also gave me the raw XML code), Opera (which allowed me to fill in the form but not select a state from the drop down), and Safari (which doesn't allow anything due to their site currently being IE only).
I even tried the debug menu in Safari for Windows IE and Mac IE. Neither worked. However, the actual Internet Explorer applications for OS X did work and you're able to fill the form out properly.
If for some reason it doesn't work for you or you don't want to use IE for the Mac (can't blame ya!), then you can call XM @ 1-800-XM-RADIO and activate by phone. Be sure to tell them the site is doesn't work on a Mac and you want the online activation rate of $10 instead of the over the phone rate of $15 (assuming you have to activate the radio - I'm not entirely sure how the free trial periods work).
Good luck!

ITeufel Radio v2 doesn't work with iOS 5.0.1

My iTeufel Radio v2 doesn't work with iOS 5.0.1.
It does not charge (just a short "beep" when connecting, but then it does not charge) and the audio function also doesn't work.
I already tried to reset the phone, but this didn't help.
Any ideas? Thank you.

I got Wi-Fi to reconnect by restarting my router and re-entering the wireless password. I wonder if the wireless account passwords were lost in the update process? I wonder if I would have just had the phone “forget” the wireless account and reconnect if that would have worked.
On an interesting side note, the exchange server connected after I got Wi-Fi back working! I am wondering if there is a issue with 3G and the new IOS 5.01? I could not get any exchange connectivity after the update on 3G.

IPhone 5 doesn't connect to iTunes, although I just synchronized my iPhone 3.

I just bought an iPhone 5 and would like to sync with content from iPhone 3. When configurating the iPhone, I chose the option to connect to iTunes. However, it was impossible to click on File/ synchronize iPhone, as it was greyed out!
As I wanted to use it straight off, I had to chose the configuration option "use as new device" (or similar).
How do I sync with iTunes now? It still doesn't connect to my iTunes account.

I have an IPhone 4 that turns off on its own. When I plug the phone into an outlet, it says to connect to iTunes. When i connect my phone to itunes, the screen displays the apple icon and doesn't connect to iTunes. I need to backup info on this phone so I can apply my back up to a new iPhone. Is there any another way i can do this? My older phone will not show it's connected to iTunes. I used iCloud on the phone with problems, but I didn't back up all the info thru iCloud. Is there another way to back up?

Sounds like your phone is in recovery mode. In this case, all data on it is gone. There's nothing to back up.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- Try another cable
- Try on another computer
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
And as necessary:
See
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
- I would start with
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP
or
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components
- Then do the other actions of:

paying special attention to item #5
- New cable and different USB port
- Run this and see if the results help with determine the cause

3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)

My Ipad doesn't connect to wifi while all other devices are connected.

My iPad doesn't connect to wifi anymore while all other devices in the same network are connected including iPod.

My iphone 4 doesn´t connect through Wi-Fi, Apple replaced my phone for a new one, but the new one has the same problem. I have an ipod third generation and it doesn´t have this problem. Having compared both working at the same time, the iphone alsways lags behind or doesn´t even connect to the internet via Wi-Fi. Does any one know what to do?? Thanks

Have you ever checked to see if there is an update for your router? If yes, then power off router. Then on iPhone go into settings and do a reset network settings. Power router back on, and try connecting phone to router.

My mac doesn't connect to my home network by default

My computer doesn't connect to my Airport basestation by default. The WiFi at the top bar is not connected, if I click on the WiFi symbol I see my connection and 2 of my neighbors, but none are connected by default. I always have to manually select my basestation. When I open Safari for the 1st time I get a "not connected to the Internet" type error. When I click diagnose and walk through the steps of selecting my location and basestation it connects without an issue.
I've gone into the System Preferences and tried to create a new location, but no luck. When I look in System Preferences and click into 'Advanced' my network is the only one listed in the Preferred Networks window. Why does it not connect by default. If I restart the computer I have to manually select my network again.

Have you tried deleting the SSID in the Preferred Networks section and then reentering it?

My ipod shuffle 4th doesn't connect to itunes or windows, what can I do?

hello,
it's been like 2 weeks since I did the update of itunes and everything to get my ipod shuffle 4th generation, and also did all the troubleshooting from the apple page, and nothing happens. It doesn't connect to itunes or windows.
anyone of you have the same problem or know how to solve it??
thx a lot!!

I'm having the same problem, my brand new Ipod shuffle isn't recognized by my pc, or Itunes. I have tried everything suggested in troubleshooting. Did I just waste $50 on something that doesn't work? I'm afraid if I send the Ipod back for another one I will have the same problem. Any suggestions ?
